President Donald Trump directed aides to investigate whether former President Joe Biden’s staff conspired to hide information about his health from the public and enacted any executive actions without his predecessor’s knowledge.

The memorandum, published Wednesday, orders an inquiry by the counsel to the president in consultation with the US attorney general and the heads of any relevant agencies and cites Biden’s use of an autopen to sign documents.
