On Wednesday, President Joe Biden signed an executive order āon securing access to reproductive and other healthcare services.ā
Issued directly in response to the Supreme Courtās overturning of Roe V. Wade, the order allows Medicaid to cover the costs for women traveling out of state to avoid abortion restrictions, according to the White House.
But the signing itself is not necessarily the only news story from the event.
Bidenās behavior also turned some heads.
During what appears to be a pre-planned, scripted address to cameras, the presidentĀ appears to go off script, look off camera and ask his staff for directions.
āDo I sign this order now?ā Biden asked.
The signing and subsequent video highlighted two concerns the presidentās critics have focused in on when voicing their opposition: the presidentās mental state and allegedly unconstitutional actions.
When it comes to President Bidenās mental acuity, many critics point to videos showing him seeming confused or unable to voice his thoughts.
Former White House physician Ronny Jackson, now a Republican Senator representing the state of Texas, has voiced many such concerns over Bidenās health.
The second concern of Bidenās critics is that, according to them, he often circumvents the constitution.
In an Op-Ed for The Western Journal, American-Israeli special forces operator Ben Kerido opined as much, noting that the overturning of Roe V. Wade may lead Biden to pack the Supreme Court which, in Keridoās view, ācould mean the end of any and all constitutional rights.ā
āAfter the disastrous first year and a half of post-Trump Democratic control of most of the government, one can only shudder at what would happen if the American judicial system were to be completely transformed into a vehicle to further the agenda of the Democratic Party in perpetuity,ā Kerido wrote.
āBut thatās exactly what members of Bidenās Supreme Court commission like Kermit Roosevelt III have called for⦠an Orwellian nightmare justified in order to protect Roe V. Wade and āsave our democracy.'ā
