Did Joe Biden really run the White House? That’s what many Americans wonder after his four years as president. Who was making the big decisions? Who was signing the papers? These questions grow stronger as we learn more about Biden’s use of an autopen—a machine that copies his signature onto documents.

Congress wants answers. They’re digging into what really happened behind closed doors at the White House. And now, those answers are starting to come out. What we’re learning should alarm every American who cares about who’s running our government.

A former top Biden aide just made a shocking confession. Neera Tanden, who served as Biden’s Domestic Policy Council director, told Congress she had the authority to use Biden’s signature on official documents.

From ‘The Post Millennial’:

Former top Biden aide Neera Tanden testified behind closed doors in Congress on Tuesday for four hours during which she said that she was authorized to use the autopen on behalf of Joe Biden.

Tanden, who served as the Biden administration’s director of the White House Domestic Policy Council as well as staff secretary, said during her opening remarks that she “was responsible for handling the flow of documents to and from the president,” per the Washington Examiner.

Tanden made this admission during a four-hour closed-door meeting with the House Oversight Committee. She explained that between October 2021 and May 2023, she could decide when to use the autopen for Biden’s signature.

Think about what this means. A secretary could sign papers using the president’s name! This wasn’t just for birthday cards or form letters. These were official government documents that normally require the president’s personal attention.

The Chain of Command Mystery

Even more troubling is what Tanden didn’t know. According to Fox News reporting, she admitted she had no idea who in Biden’s inner circle was giving final approval on using the autopen.

Tanden’s process involved sending “decision memos” to Biden’s inner circle. But she couldn’t explain what happened after that. Who reviewed these memos? Who made the final call? She didn’t know.

This raises serious questions. If Tanden didn’t know who approved the use of Biden’s signature, who was really making decisions? Was Biden himself involved, or were others running the show without voters’ knowledge?

Congressional Investigation Intensifies

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer made it clear this investigation is just beginning. “This is the first of what will be many interviews with people that we believe were involved in the autopen scandal in the Biden administration,” he said.

Comer added, “I think the American people want to know. I think there’s a huge level of curiosity in the press corps with respect to who was actually calling the shots in the Biden administration.”

The committee has scheduled interviews with other key Biden aides, including Annie Tomasini and Ashley Williams. Biden’s longtime doctor, Kevin O’Connor, will face questions on July 9. The committee also wants to talk to Biden’s former chief of staff Ron Klain and advisor Anita Dunn.

What This Means for America

Our Constitution is clear—Americans elect a president, not a committee. When unelected staffers can use the president’s signature without clear oversight, it undermines our system of government.

Tanden claims there was “absolutely not” any cover-up of Biden’s condition. She also said the autopen system was “inherited from prior administrations.” But these explanations don’t answer the key question: Who was really in charge?

The investigation continues, and more witnesses will soon testify. The truth about who was really running our government for four years is finally coming to light. If Biden wasn’t signing his own documents, who was really in charge of America?
