Proof That the Autopen Scandal Is Serious Is Seen in the Unserious Way the Press Is Defending Its Use

The duo decided to focus on Rep. James Comer, heading up the House investigation, and they felt it was relevant to show he has used digital signatures on documents sent to various members around D.C.

The House Oversight Committee chair used a digital signature to send out letters and subpoena notices related to the Biden autopen investigation. https://t.co/Worzea6MN6

The desperation to conflate a digital document sent to and originating from a solitary account containing a digital signature with a mechanized signing apparatus that was possibly/probably operated by secondary parties for official White House legal documents is more than palpable.

With even less shame, one NBC producer tries to say that digitally signed PDFs are “a version of autopen,” when it most certainly is not. What is very clear is this desire to put in more work looking into Comer’s documents than exploring the concept that the Biden White House was operating without the president.

NEW: As Republicans on the House Oversight Cmte investigate former Pres Biden's use of the autopen, Chairman Comer is...using a version of autopen to sign letters noticing subpoenas for their investigation.

Prose & Contradiction – ABC NEWS

• You do realize we can read your own article, correct?

Also looking to provide cover for Biden is ABC News, attempting to interpret for us the interview that President Silver Alert conducted this weekend with The New York Times. ABC insisted, based on Biden’s foggy claim, that he approved every single pardon his administration put out.

And then went on to prove that he most certainly did not.

In one segment of their article, they give the passages where both Biden and his former staffers admitted that he just gave them guidelines for the types of people who would qualify for pardons, and he was not there to oversee the individual choices they made:

However, he and aides told the Times that some decisions for large batches of pardons were based on broad categories that various people fell into, not based on reviewing individuals on a case-by-case basis. Biden said he approved the categories and standards for choosing who to pardon.

Former President Joe Biden, in an interview with The New York Times published Sunday, said that he personally made every clemency and pardon decision during the last few weeks of his presidency — including those made with an autopen.

Legalized Press-titution – WASHINGTON POST

• Weeping over a completely impotent office is not a grand look.

With the news coming out that the State Department was laying off thousands of employees, WaPo’s Jake Spring decided to focus on a select group among those released from duty. Twelve people, to be exact.

He was mourning the loss of the agency's climate office. Now, if you are wondering just what it was that a division in the State Dept. was doing involving climate issues, or why, we are not fully sure, despite Mr. Strong’s explanations.

Apparently, these people in the State Department’s Office of Global Change were “climate negotiators.” One person described things thusly: “Without the office in place, there’s not a focal point for the organization of U.S. climate diplomacy.” And if this does not sound useless enough, they were also charged with annual U.N. negotiations related to climate treaties.

In other words, not a single person is going to notice a change, despite WaPo making this sound like a tragic, almost dire result.

Race to the Bottom – CNN

• Switch the roles, and surely this would end a career.

Ah, leave it to Ana Navarro to go off on an unhinged rant, and as a result, go off without any accountability for what she had to say. Navarro was discussing things with Brad Polumbo about Trump and immigration, and he directly and calmly pointed out that her dismissing his opinion based solely on the fact that he is a white man was racist. Then he deftly called her out as she backpeddled and tried to claim a moral high ground from the point of the Latino community, explaining that Latinos do not speak as one voice, and she is not the spokesperson for an entire race.

Pre-Written Field Reports – CNN

• Have we completely forgotten the complaints of us fighting other people’s wars?

How unsurprising this became when Rahm Emmanuel goes on with Dana Bash with the intent to slam President Trump. There was no way this would not go sideways and end up in a ditch.

Emmanuel tried to classify the Trump Doctrine and declared that the only place he has troops on the ground is inside the city of Los Angeles. Not only does Rahm think protecting our own country is somehow wrong, but he points out that Trump took out a terrorist leader and crippled Iran’s nuke program without endangering troops, and declares this is a problem, somehow.
