  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The auto-pen scandal is going to be massive

In the interview — posted to social media platform X by the Oversight Committee on Thursday — Comer revealed that there had been a massive uptick in pardons and executive orders during Biden’s last 100 days in office.

Further, Comer stated, there were four staffers who were asked for an interview — but “lawyered up” instead.
On the staffers who are pushing back, he told Hannity, “The four staffers that we’ve asked to come in for transcribed interviews, they have all lawyered up. They are taking this very seriously, and this is going to be a battle to get to the truth.”
Comer also mentioned two important components of the Biden autopen scandal that nobody denies.

Firstly, the autopen — a machine that replicates a signature in place of the would-be signatory — was used.
Secondly, the left accepts what the right has been saying for years: Biden was cognitively unfit to serve.

“Anything pertaining to the law has to be signed by a person,” Comer explained. “No one in the Biden administration is denying that the autopen was used. No one now is denying that Joe Biden wasn’t mentally fit to make some of these decisions.”

Although each side may disagree on when Biden became unable to serve, the last 100 days Comer mentioned were during the last three months of 2024 through Trump’s inauguration in January — well after his disastrous June presidential debate with Trump forced him out of the presidential race and compelled his defenders in the Democratic Party to withdraw their support.

Clearly, the four staffers mentioned have a lot to explain.


Good luck with yet the fourth Biden investigation. And as the other three congressional investigations along with the one under the Trump DOJ, get ready for more self inflicted disappointment. Btw, one will find there is an "uptick" of pardons and EOs with every departing president.

Here is evidence. Probably not anything you would accept, but evidence nonetheless. At least evidence that biden was not reading what he was signing. It could be quite possible that in his demented state, staffers put an executive orders in front of him and lied about what he was signing.

According to Mike Johnson. It's not like Biden publicly said he didn't sign something that dominated the news for month, when he really did.

I’m old enough to remember when the right was obsessed with Hillary’s “failing health” but that was at least during an election year.

This is getting sad just how badly they need a distraction from the current failing geriatric president.

I wonder when the last person who testified to Congress without lawyering up was.

He is an old man. I’ll give you that. He has less than 4 years to go.

So basically you are saying that Joe was actually coherent when he signed the documents, but immediately forgot about them as soon as they were removed from his desk.

If you aren't testifying to support the members of a committee, you should always have a lawyer with your at a Congressional hearing.

No, I said according to Mike (there will be no cuts to medicaid) Johnson. Not the most reliable word. What I am saying is what I laid out and what you asked actually happened. It just wasn't Biden. As I noted earlier this is just another GOP Congressional "what about Biden" waste of time. How about doing something constructive. You know, like bringing the bill to vote that Trump wanted that would allow US citizens to negotiate with pharma as a whole just like every other country. But nope, more Joe Biden investigations.

Wow, man, you have my sympathy and my respect. We took in my mother in law when she developed Alzheimers after my father in law passed, and then when she passed, a short while later, my own mother started developing dementia. For her, we had no choice but to find a home for her, because she was an amputee in a wheelchair and our house has stairs up the wazoo. Also, my youngest brother was in a home (and he was always Mom's favorite) so this let them be together.

It's a tough ride for all concerned, and anyone who dedicates themselves to care for a family member with these challenges has my respect.

It's worse than I thought. My nephew, her grandson cleaned out her bank account, almost $4,000 gone. She has $7 dollars left and the bills have not been paid

You're kidding...what a piece of work that kid is. First call is to your uncle to tell him to sort it out with his boy, and quickly. Because he really doesn't want you making that second call.

Wow, that's deplorable. It's pretty bad how easily many elders fall victim to fraud and abuse, it's much, much worse when that comes from a family member.

-- A2SG, talk about a piece of...work.....

My brother was his father and he passed away in 2009. This kid is 43 years old. I reported it to the Sheriffs Department, the Sheriff is already out to get him and it shouldn't be hard because he set up a recurring charge for Netflix and Spectrum. I checked and the Netflix account is set up under his email. The Sheriff's Department can trace that.
He is out on bond for another charge, if they arrest him for this they can revoke his bond and keep him locked up until trial.
I have tried to help him many times, let him do some work for me when he didn't have a job, gave him money several times but now he is persona non grata to me.
I'm also having a nightmare dealing with the bank.
