Kentucky Congressman James Comer says the committee he leads in the House has found that while Joe Biden struggled to perform his presidential duties, critical decisions were made behind closed doors without a clear chain of command. He spoke on Fox News.
Mr. Comer says the Trump Administration has now deemed executive actions, pardons, and major policy directives that were signed by the Biden White House autopen are null and void.

The report of a naked child outdoors in the afternoon on Monday is what sent officers to the area near Race and Springlake streets. A good Samaritan found the child and called the police. An officer located a stroller in a nearby yard and knocked on the door, but no one answered it. A short time later, the police say a juvenile came outside as well as the father. Lorenzo Drone told the police that he did not know that the child has gotten outside. Drone is charged with wanton endangerment and with endangering the welfare of a child.
The state police are investigating the Muhlenberg County crash that took two lives. It occurred on Friday near the 15-mile marker of Highway US-4-31. Dead is 78-year-old Billy Wilson of Dunmor and 68-year-old Morrine Cox of Greenville. The police say Cox’s car reportedly failed to stop for traffic and entered the path of both Wilson’s and 36-year-old Robert Hosmer’s vehicles. Wilson and Hosmer are being treated for their injuries.
Just like every other state, Kentucky has a need for more housing. State Senator Robbie Mills and his colleagues in Frankfort say it must be solved. Mills says Tennessee and Indiana are addressing the problem with no-interest loan-pools.
Mills says the state is short by 206-thousand housing units.
