'Null & Void' Experts Question the Autopen, Harrowing story of Survival in the Texas Flood plus When Woke Satire Stops Being Funny Week In Review

📰 1. Biden and the Autopen Controversy

  • The discussion opens with a deep dive into a legal and political controversy involving President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to sign off on mass pardons.
  • The Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) had previously ruled that autopen use is valid only if the president personally makes the decision.
  • The New York Times reported that Biden did not individually approve each pardon, raising questions about the validity of those pardons.
  • The hosts argue that this could lead to legal challenges and potentially invalidate some pardons, especially if there’s no paper trail of Biden’s direct involvement.

🌊 2. Personal Story: Guadalupe River Flood Tragedy

  • A first-person narrative recounts a devastating flood along the Guadalupe River in Texas.
  • The story, written by Aaron Parsley, describes a family’s harrowing experience as their river house was swept away.
  • The emotional account includes the death of a young child (Clay) and the survival of his sister (Rosemary) and other family members.
  • It’s a powerful, emotional interlude that highlights the human cost of natural disasters and the resilience of survivors.

📺 3. Stephen Colbert and the Fall of Late Night Comedy

  • The hosts discuss the cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”, framing it as a cultural shift.
  • Colbert is criticized for being partisan, elitist, and out of touch with much of America.
  • The commentary contrasts Colbert with other late-night hosts like Jimmy Fallon, who is portrayed more favorably.
  • There’s also a mocking segment about Colbert’s pro-vaccine musical skits, which the hosts deride as sanctimonious and unfunny.

Biden’s Chief of Staff Under Fire for Autopen plus U.S. May Join Allies in Labeling Muslim Brotherhood as Terrorists

1. Allegations Regarding President Joe Biden’s Use of the Autopen for Pardons

  • The podcast claims that President Biden may not have been fully aware of what he was signing via autopen during his final days in office.
  • It references a New York Times article and a forthcoming book titled Original Sin.
  • Allegations include:
    • Biden’s inner circle blocked him from campaign prep and briefings.

    • The legitimacy of these pardons is questioned, with Donald Trump calling it a major scandal.
  • The narrative suggests that Biden’s aides, not the President himself, made final decisions on pardons.

2. Proposed Legislation to Designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization

  • Senator Ted Cruz is introducing the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025.
  • The bill proposes a bottom-up approach to designation, differing from past efforts that failed due to the non-violent status of some Brotherhood branches.

    • Catalog global branches of the Muslim Brotherhood.
    • Designate those meeting terrorism criteria.
  • The bill outlines three pathways for designation:
    1. Congressional action under the 1987 Anti-Terrorism Act.
    2. State Department designation.
    3. Designation as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist group.
  • The legislation is supported by GOP senators and aligns with actions taken by countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
  • Cruz compares this effort to Trump’s 2017 designation of Iran’s IRGC as a terrorist group.
  • The document includes Cruz’s direct statements, emphasizing the Brotherhood’s global reach, violent ideology, and alleged ties to groups like Hamas.
