What Has Joe Biden Been Up To?

After leaving public office, former President Joe Biden didn’t go quietly like some expected, instead filling his year with public appearances and headline-making moments.

It’s been nearly a year since Biden left the White House, but that doesn’t mean it’s been a quiet year for the longtime senator and one-term president. What started with pardoning many members of his family ended with a viral Christmas eve post and included speeches, book writing and train rides in between.

Biden started the year off hot, granting preemptive pardons to Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Army Gen. Mark Milley, members of the House Select Committee on the Jan. 6 attack at the Capitol and members of his family in the final days of his presidency. The former president remained rather quiet after departing D.C. on Jan. 20, making just a few statements on X until March.

In March, Biden emerged from political hibernation. First, NBC News reported that Biden and his former First Lady Jill Biden wanted back into politics even after being forced out by their own party. Sources told the outlet that the former president met with newly elected Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin in February to offer his assistance.

Sources at the time said Biden and his wife were both working on a book, and the former president was traveling back and forth between Delaware and D.C. to meet with advisors while he wrote.

Watch Hunter Biden Claim With Straight Face That Laptop From Hell Never Existed

Hunter Biden told podcaster Shawn Ryan in an interview that aired Monday that former Republican Mayor Rudy Giuliani of New York City “concocted” the laptop that was the subject of an October 2020 New York Post report.

Twitter locked multiple accounts, including the New York Post’s and the personal account of then-White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany for sharing the bombshell report about emails from the laptop reportedly abandoned by Biden at a Delaware computer repair shop. During Monday’s episode of “The Shawn Ryan Show,” Biden gave the host an elaborate explanation as to why the laptop was “fabricated.”

“What I can tell you about the laptop is that there is no laptop. That’s bullshit. What was provided out there, what the-” Biden said, with Ryan asking, “There was no f**king laptop?”

“There is an actual physical laptop that somebody had, but the guy that had, that said he had the laptop, the existence of the search for the laptop came before he was even a twinkle in Rudy Giuliani’s eye,” Biden said. “There were people, talk to Lev Parnas. Lev Parnas literally went to Ukraine to get a laptop from Dmytro Firtash, to get a hard drive, Hunter Biden’s hard drive from Dmytro Firtash and Andrii Derkach, in Ukraine, in Austria, four months before John Paul Mac Isaac ever even… existed. And so, what they did is they cobbled together [a] stolen, concocted, fabricated mishmash of digital information, largely, which is, you know, thousands and thousands and thousands of emails… from 25 years. I mean, no laptop could have held all of that.” (Read more from “Watch Hunter Biden Claim With Straight Face That Laptop From Hell Never Existed” HERE)

Trump Declares Biden Autopen-Signed Documents ‘Hereby Terminated’ in Fiery Announcement

President Donald Trump on Friday issued a sweeping declaration aimed at unraveling a large portion of his predecessor’s official record, asserting that executive documents signed using Joe Biden’s autopen are now void.

In a bold post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that the widespread use of the presidential autopen during Biden’s administration constituted illegal approval of executive actions. He alleged that Biden was not personally involved in signing many official documents, insisting this invalidates their authority.

“Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect,” Trump wrote.

“The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States.”

Trump further accused White House staff of misusing the tool, claiming aides effectively assumed presidential authority without Biden’s involvement.

“The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him,” Trump stated, adding that Biden could face perjury charges if he falsely claims direct approval of autopen-penned orders.

The president’s renewed focus on Biden’s signatures follows months of claims from Republican lawmakers and conservative groups that the autopen was used excessively—and possibly without proper authorization.

A report published by the Heritage Foundation in March alleged that the “majority” of Biden-era presidential documents contained an autopen signature rather than Biden’s handwritten approval. The finding fueled ongoing concerns that Biden was not actively overseeing executive decisions.

The issue even took on symbolic proportions earlier this year when the White House displayed images of past presidents in the Rose Garden colonnade—only to feature a photograph of the autopen in place of Biden’s portrait.

Kamala Harris’s ‘Fully Competent’ Joe Biden Comment Leaves Jon Stewart Visibly Stunned

Jon Stewart appeared visibly shocked Thursday after former Vice President Kamala Harris told the comedian that ex-prez Joe Biden was “fully competent” to serve another term.

During an episode of the comedian’s podcast “The Weekly Show,” Harris revealed that she regrets not making more of a distinction between herself and Biden during her failed White House run last year.

Stewart jumped in to clarify that he wasn’t asking about “the competence conversation,” but about differences in policies Biden wanted to implement versus Harris’ own priorities.

“No, I’m not talking about competence,” Harris insisted. “I am not talking about competence at all. No, I believe he was fully competent to serve.”

Stewart raised his eyebrows and asked, “Do you really?”

“I do,” Harris replied.

“That surprises me, actually,” Stewart said. (Read more from “Kamala Harris’s ‘Fully Competent’ Joe Biden Comment Leaves Jon Stewart Visibly Stunned” HERE)

Ex-Biden Spokesman — Who Asserted He Saw ‘Sharp’ Prez Frequently — Admits to Seeing Him Twice in 2 Years

Former Biden White House spokesperson Ian Sams, who aggressively defended the aging president as “sharp” and vigorous behind the scenes following his fumbling 2024 debate performance, privately admitted to House investigators that he rarely met the 46th president in person.

On July 2, 2024, five days after the disastrous debate, Sams went on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House” and argued that the 46th president’s repudiation of the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision illustrated how Biden was keeping up behind the scenes, despite public fears about his cognition.

“Yesterday, when he [gave] the speech about what the Supreme Court did, he drove that speech,” Sams raved to host Nicolle Wallace.

“That’s the President Biden that so many of us experience every single day, who’s asking the tough questions so that we as staff can be sharp to do our job best for the American people.”

“When I deal with him,” Sams reiterated at another point in the interview in reference to Biden, “he is sharp. He’s asking tough questions.” (Read more from “Ex-Biden Spokesman — Who Asserted He Saw ‘Sharp’ Prez Frequently — Admits to Seeing Him Twice in 2 Years” HERE)

Bombshell Audio: Biden Privately Praised Clarence Thomas’ ‘Character’ While Claiming To Believe Anita Hill’s Smears

During his campaign to secure the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination, Joe Biden infamously told the leftist co-hosts of ABC’s The View that, “from the beginning,” he believed Anita Hill’s unsubstantiated allegations of sexual harassment against now-Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

“Not only didn’t I vote for Clarence Thomas, I believed [Hill] from the beginning. I was against Clarence Thomas, I did everything in my power to defeat Clarence Thomas and he won by the smallest margin anyone ever won going on the Supreme Court,” Biden said in the 2019 interview.

But if Biden’s claim about believing Hill is true, then why did he leave a voicemail on Thomas’ answering machine praising him as a “person of character” after his confirmation to the Supreme Court?

Obtained by The Federalist, the voice message in question further underscores Biden’s duplicitous behavior throughout Thomas’ Senate confirmation. As the then-chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, the Delaware Democrat had an instrumental role in shepherding the three-ring circus that sought to sink the George H.W. Bush nominee’s appointment to the highest court in the land.

In his 2007 memoir My Grandfather’s Son, Thomas — who was confirmed to SCOTUS 34 years ago on Wednesday — described a phone call he purportedly had with the Delaware senator prior to the Senate Judiciary Committee’s vote on whether to advance his nomination to the full floor for consideration. As noted by Thomas, the Judiciary Committee was already aware of Hill’s allegations — including Biden.

FBI Sources Alleged Biden Stopped Burisma Investigation ‘To Protect The Interests Of Hunter,’ New Docs Show

While he was vice president, Joe Biden stepped onto taxpayer-funded Air Force 2, traveled to Ukraine, and conducted personal business with Ukraine’s then-President Petro Poroshenko. He was there “to protect the interests of Hunter Biden,” according to documents released Tuesday by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the oversight of the FBI.

The new documents strengthen the information in previously released records. Last Congress, Grassley released FBI 1023 records — statements from confidential sources — alleging that when Biden was vice president, executives for Ukrainian gas company Burisma put his son Hunter Biden on the company’s board of directors to “protect us through his dad, from all kinds of problems,” according to that “confidential human source.”

Burisma wanted to do business in the United States, but was facing a corruption investigation in Ukraine, led by then-Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.

“Regarding that investigation’s impact on its ambitions in North America, Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky reportedly said, ‘Don’t worry Hunter will take care of all of those issues through his dad.’ Zlochevsky reportedly stated that he had to pay $5 million to Hunter Biden and $5 million to Joe Biden, an arrangement he described as ‘poluchili,’ which is Russian crime slang for being “forced or coerced to pay,” according to the document declassified in 2023.

The confidential human source who provided that information, Alexander Smirnova, was later prosecuted for lying to his FBI handler and took a guilty plea, but the Trump DOJ is reexamining the case. Now, more evidence has come to light that tells a similar story to his.

Kamala Harris Goes Scorched Earth on Biden in Explosive Memoir

Former Vice President Kamala Harris blasted the “recklessness” of then-President Joe Biden’s decision to run for a second term — writing in her forthcoming memoir that the choice should not have been “left to an individual’s ego.”

The ex-veep’s stunning dig at her former boss was laid bare in an excerpt of her book, “107 Days,” which was obtained by The Atlantic on Wednesday — shocking former Biden White House aides who were not expecting a juicy tell-all.

“Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness,” Harris writes of her decision not to convince Biden to drop out of the 2024 race earlier.

“The stakes were simply too high. This wasn’t a choice that should have been left to an individual’s ego, an individual’s ambition. It should have been more than a personal decision.”

One former White House official claimed to The Post that Harris’ admission “hurts” any chance of a political comeback in 2028.

“No one wants a leader that can’t speak truth to power, but I do not think she is going to run,” the Democratic aide said. (Read more from “Kamala Harris Goes Scorched Earth on Biden in Explosive Memoir” HERE)

Biden Assault Accuser Expands $100M Lawsuit to Include Jill and Hunter

In 1993, Tara Reade worked as staff assistant in then-Senator Joe Biden’s office. One day, according to Reade, Biden allegedly sexually assaulted her. She claims she filed a written complaint with a congressional personnel office, but as of today, no copy of this complaint has surfaced.

All attempts to seek help both internally and externally were unsuccessful, according to Reade, who alleges she was stripped of her responsibilities and treated poorly as a result.

In 2020 when Joe Biden was running for president, Reade filed a police report with the Washington, D.C., police, but the case remained inactive because the timing of the alleged assault fell outside the statute of limitations. She was even denied help from Time’s Up — a nonprofit that supports survivors of sexual harassment, assault, and abuse. However, the organization had ties to Anita Dunn, one of Joe Biden’s top advisers.

The intimidation, threats, and false accusations Reade suffered from her advocacy became overwhelming. In 2020, Reade’s Twitter records were subpoenaed by a grand jury, her bank accounts were disrupted, and a FedEx package containing her book manuscript, which was a memoir detailing her alleged abuse, mysteriously disappeared.

Fearing for her safety, Reade relocated to Russia in 2023 after being granted asylum. Even though Biden is no longer in office, she remains in Russia today, as she fears the Biden family will seek retribution.

Senate Report: Biden’s HHS Placed Thousands of Migrant Children With Unvetted Adults

A new report from the Senate Judiciary Committee has raised serious concerns over how the Biden administration handled the placement of unaccompanied migrant children in the United States. Committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed findings showing that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) placed more than 11,000 migrant children with adults who were never properly vetted.

Thousands of Children Placed Without Required Checks

Under federal law, when unaccompanied children are placed with adult sponsors who are not parents or relatives, those sponsors must undergo FBI fingerprint-based background checks. According to the report, Biden’s HHS disregarded this requirement, placing thousands of minors in homes where no such checks were conducted.

The report also noted that more than 79,000 children under the age of 12 were placed with sponsors without the agency conducting home studies that are meant to evaluate living conditions and child safety.

“My oversight continues to expose disturbing evidence that the Biden-Harris administration turned a blind eye to tens of thousands of kids who needed proper supervision and care,” Grassley said. “It’s appalling to prioritize speed and optics over the safety and well-being of children.”

The investigation highlighted the sheer scale of the crisis. Between October 2020 and September 2024, HHS cared for nearly half a million unaccompanied minors — a surge that strained the system and led to rapid, and in many cases, unverified placements. By comparison, from October 2024 through June 2025, the number dropped significantly to just over 21,000.

Critics say the Biden administration’s approach prioritized quickly clearing children from federal custody rather than ensuring their long-term safety.

Kennedy Blasts Policy as “Child Abuse”

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who took office earlier this year, told Congress in May that the Biden administration’s handling of the issue amounted to systemic child abuse.

“My predecessor was deliberately employing a policy of speed over safety so they waived all of the identification requirements for sponsors,” Kennedy testified. “Sponsors were not required to show valid identification; they were never fingerprinted, so we don’t know if there’s a criminal record. There was no DNA testing, so the claims that they were taking a family member were dubious.”

The Judiciary Committee says it will continue pressing for accountability and reforms to prevent future abuses. Grassley emphasized that protecting migrant children should not be a partisan issue: “We cannot allow government negligence to put children at risk. This is about basic safety and responsibility.”
