"I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally," Mr. Trump said.

President Donald Trump attracted a wave of criticism after he pivoted to talking about his 2024 election victory when asked about a National Guard member who recently succumbed to her gunshot wounds.
