COUCOU Magazine (Click on images for details.) 10 Robot Signatures Rule!Paul Jacob on how The Biden operated. | March 12, 2025“I’ve got a pen,” said Barack Obama, famously, “and I’ve got a phone; andI can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions andadministrative actions that move the ball forward.…”There has been a lot of talk, recently, about the danger posed by DonaldJ. Trump’s executive orders. Understandable, but no matter howdangerous an imperial president may be, the one thing you cannot sayabout the “use of the pen to sign executive orders” is that it isunprecedented.But there’s one kind of pen that is somewhat … problematic: theautopen.It’s a signing machine.LEPOINTMay be an illustration of 1 person, the Oval Office and text
The first was called the “polygraph,” invented by John Isaac Hawkins in1803; President Thomas Jefferson was an enthusiastic user.Today’s autopen is much advanced. Regular people probably usesomething like it to file their taxes or use it regularly on legal documentsin PDF form, but the presidential autopen is more secure. Or is supposedto be.In 2005, the Bush legal team decided it was hunky dory to use an autopento “sign” documents when the president is out of the country. Whatmatters, the lawyers reasoned, was presidential intent.Since then, all three presidents have used an autopen.But Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., used it to sign nearly everything.Or so alleges The Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project. “Theorganization’s assertion points to a pattern whereby all documentsfeaturing Biden’s signature, except for the one announcing his withdrawalfrom the presidential race last year, utilized the autopen,” reportsChristina Davie. “These claims raise questions about presidentialauthenticity and executive authority.”As that Bush era report makes clear, it’s presidential intent that matters.And in the case of the 46th president, we know that he did not rememberever signing at least a few of his executive orders.As the Oversight Project makes clear in its report title, “WhoeverControlled the Autopen Controlled the Presidency.” I wonder, was it JillBiden? Or one of the named triumvirate of Biden cronies?This is Common Sense. I’m Paul Jacob.SOURCE: ThisIsCommonSense.orgCOUCOU Magazine (Click on images for details.) 11LEPOINT
COUCOU Magazine (Click on images for details.) 12LEPOINTHouse Republican Proposes VERY INTERESTING LANGUAGE To Amend The 22nd Amendment To Allow President Trump To Serve a Third TermRep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) introduced a resolution that would allow PresidentTrump to seek a third term.“I just introduced a resolution to amend the 22nd Amendment to allowPresident Trump to seek a third term,” Ogles wrote.The language of the proposed amendment reads:‘‘No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than threetimes, nor be elected to any additional term after being elected to twoconsecutive terms, and no person who has held the office of President, oracted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some otherperson was elected President shall be elected to the office of the Presidentmore than twice.’’“President Trump’s decisive leadership stands in stark contrast to the chaos,suffering, and economic decline Americans have endured over the past four years. Hehas proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing ournation’s decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the timenecessary to accomplish that goal. To that end, I am proposing an amendment to theConstitution to revise the limitations imposed by the 22nd Amendment onpresidential terms. This amendment would allow President Trump to serve threeterms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperatelyneeds,” Ogles said.
COUCOU Magazine (Click on images for details.) 13LEPOINT“It is imperative that we provide President Trump with every resourcenecessary to correct the disastrous course set by the Biden administration.President Trump has shown time and time again that his loyalty lies with theAmerican people and our great nation above all else. He is dedicated torestoring the republic and saving our country, and we, as legislators and asstates, must do everything in our power to support him,” he added.“In just a few short days, President Trump has already taken action to undothe catastrophic policies of the Biden Administration and put the UnitedStates back on the path to strength and prosperity. He has tackled the crisisat our Southern border by declaring a national emergency, deployingadditional troops and resources to curb illegal crossings, and expediting thecompletion of the border wall. In a similar vein, he issued an order to endbirthright citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal aliens.Placing American safety as his top priority, President Trump designatedMexican cartels as terrorist organizations, empowering law enforcement todismantle these violent networks with greater force. Aside from the border,he has set American energy free by declaring a national emergency to lift theBiden Administration’s oil and gas drilling restrictions. President Trump hasalso broken the chains of DEI by eliminating federal programs and reaffirminglegally that there are only two genders, male and female. He has also initiatedthe process to withdraw the United States from the World HealthOrganization, a decision I am personally very excited about following theBiden Administration’s disastrous COVID pandemic response,”Ogles added.The language is very carefully and artfully crafted.

Synapses areresponsible for transmitting messagesbetween neurons.On average, the brain consists of 86 billionneurons that make up over 100 trillionconnections. In other words, each neuron iscapable of forming around 1,000connections, which translates to 1,000potential synapses.There are around 125 trillion synapses in the brain. Each synapse can store up to 4.7 bitsof information.Scientists hope to use this knowledge to build energy-efficient computers that rely ondeep learning and artificial neural networks to process and store data. Informationstorage is not limited to the brain.In fact, your DNA can also store data. DNA could store all of the world's data in a singleroom, making it a powerful way to store information in the future.A single gram of DNA can store up to 215 petabytes, which is equivalent to 215 milliongigabytes of data. Scientists are now able to convert digital content into informationthat can be stored in DNA. In a recent study, researchers encoded a 52,000-word bookin thousands of snippets of DNA.They first converted the book into binary code with 0s and 1s and then stored thisinformation using DNA’s four-letter alphabet of A, G,T, and CS O U R C E : The Internet

COUCOU Magazine (Click on images for details.) 40What if there's a hidden dimension to Donald Trump; a sensitive, poetic side? Driven by this question, Rob Sears began combing Trump's words for signs of poetry.What he found was a revelation. By simply taking the 45th President of the United States' tweets and transcripts, cutting them up and reordering them, Sears unearthed a trove of beautiful verse that was just waiting to be discovered.This groundbreaking collection will give readers a glimpse of Trump's innermost thoughts and feelings on everything from the nature of truth, to what he hates about Lord Sugar. And it will reveal a hitherto hidden Donald, who may surprise and delight both students and critics alike.This timely publication also includes Sears' scholarly footnotes and introduction, in which he excavates new critical angles and insights into the President's poetry which the casual reader might initially overlook.
