President Donald Trump has initiated an inquiry into his predecessor’s conduct, voicing issues about Joe Biden’s “mental decline”.
On Wednesday, Trump directed his White House legal advisor and attorney general Pam Bondi to examine “if specific people conspired to mislead the public regarding Biden’s mental condition and unlawfully assumed the duties and powers of the President”.
This action comes after persistent claims by Trump and other Republican leaders concerning Biden’s cognitive health while in office.

Biden dismissed the recent actions as “absurd and untrue”.

What is the scope of the investigation?

Trump’s memorandum will direct an investigation into “who ran the United States while President Biden was in office”, according to the White House.
“This conspiracy marks one of the most dangerous and concerning scandals in American history. The American public was purposefully shielded from discovering who wielded the executive power,” Trump wrote in the memorandum
The order will investigate whether certain individuals conspired to deceive the public about Biden’s mental state, and look into documents that were signed by an autopen.

An autopen is a device used to mimic a person’s handwriting.
Biden has refuted these accusations.
“To be clear: I was the one making the decisions throughout my presidency. I made the choices regarding pardons, executive orders, legislation, and declarations,” he remarked recently.

For many years, under both Democratic and Republican rule, the US justice department has sanctioned the use of an autopen for signing laws and granting pardons.

Unfounded accusations

The executive order comes after Trump reposted a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, saying Biden was “executed in 2020”.

“Biden clones doubles and robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see,” the post stated.

The US president has previously attacked Biden, saying presidential pardons were signed by Biden by the autopen technology without Biden’s knowledge.

Trump, who has not provided any evidence for these accusations, said in his memorandum: “They ought to find out who was using that autopen. Because whoever that person was, he or she was like the President of the United States.”
“I think a President should sign it, not use an autopen. And we’re going to find out whether or not he knew what the hell he was doing.

“The real question — who ran the autopen, OK?”

What is the current status of Joe Biden’s health?

Biden’s health was at the centre of debate during the US presidential election.
In May, Biden’s office announced that the former president was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones.

“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management,” his office said.

Last week, in his first public comments since the diagnosis, Biden said he was “feeling good”.
“It’s all a matter of taking one particular pill for the next six weeks and then another one … It’s not in any organ, my bones are strong, so I’m feeling good.”
In response to a question about his mental and physical capabilities the former US president said: “You can see that I’m mentally incompetent, and I can’t walk, and I can beat the hell out of both of them.”
