President Trump was super proud of himself after he signed an executive order in front of the likes of podcaster Joe Rogan and HHS Secretary RFK Jr.—and the secondhand embarrassment is real.

President Donald Trump was super proud of himself after he signed an executive order to make certain psychedelic drugs more available to treat mental health conditions, taking an opportunity to boast about his own signature.

Trump's order approves $50 million in federal funding to expand access to certain therapies and directed the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to fast-track its review of drugs like psilocybin and ibogaine. He was joined by the likes of podcaster Joe Rogan and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the Oval Office.


Signing his name, Trump marveled at his own signature and took another opportunity to mock his predecessor, former President Joe Biden:

"Oh, that's a good one. Look at that, Joe. Do you think Biden can do that?"

Everyone around him laughed and applauded.

You can watch what happened in the video below.

Trump's words appear to be yet another attempt to suggest Biden's pardons and executive orders are illegitimate.

Trump has previously alleged without evidence that Biden’s pardons were signed using an autopen, citing a report that claimed the Biden White House frequently relied on the mechanical device. The report, published by the Oversight Project, a branch of the Heritage Foundation, has been used by commentators to fuel claims about Biden’s cognitive decline.

The autopen, a machine designed to replicate signatures, which Trump himself has admitted to using, has long been used by public figures, including U.S. presidents, for signing notes and letters.

Trump's boast was another example of his narcissism at work—and didn't make him look of sound mind either.


Trump's order notes that "over 14 million American adults have a serious mental illness, defined as having a diagnosable mental, behavioral, or emotional disorder" and that "about 8 million are on prescription medication for these conditions."

While Trump said his order would expedite the reclassification of psilocybin and ibogaine—currently listed as Schedule I drugs with "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse"—Kennedy, his own Health Secretary, isn't the best poster child for an effort Trump says will save lives.

Kennedy has proposed creating rural "wellness farms" to treat addiction and mental health disorders. Critics argue the proposals emphasize a moral framing of recovery over evidence-based treatment, prioritizing personal responsibility and values rather than modern medical approaches and scientifically supported care.

Kennedy has also ordered The National Institutes of Health (NIH) to gather private medical records from various federal and commercial databases to study autism more comprehensively. In a development that has many advocates concerned and outraged, a new national disease registry is being launched to track Americans diagnosed with autism, and it will be integrated into this broader data collection effort.

Hunter Biden Asks Blunt Question About Trump's Unpresidential Behavior—And We're Nodding Hard

Hunter Biden had a question for the White House press corps over their in-the-moment reactions—or lack thereof—to the insults and slurs flung by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump at journalists, mostly women and especially Black women.

Biden appeared on The Jim Acosta Show alongside former CNN White House correspondent Acosta and contributing editor for Mediaite and former White House correspondent for AOL and The Daily Banter Tommy Christopher. The trio discussed the double standards surrounding Trump in both how he behaves and how the press approaches him and covers his words and actions.

Trump Ridiculed After Claiming He's Been President 'Three Times'—And Who Wants To Tell Him?

President Donald Trump had people rolling their eyes after he said in response to a reporter at the NATO summit that he'd been president "three times" and won "three elections."

Trump has been president twice and lost the 2020 general election to then-candidate Joe Biden. Since then, he has continued to push the baseless lie that the election was "stolen" from him. Trump's supporters eventually attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, in a failed bid to overturn the election results.

GOP Senator Dragged Over 'Blatantly Racist' Anti-China Campaign Ad Where She Smashes Fortune Cookies

Tennessee Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn was called out after releasing a campaign ad about cracking down on China by dramatically crumbling fortune cookies, a move that prompted critics to point out that fortune cookies aren't a Chinese invention at all.

In the ad, Blackburn appears seated in what resembles a stereotypical Chinese restaurant, surrounded by takeout boxes and hanging lanterns. Looking directly into the camera, she asks, "How hard am I gonna crack down on China? Well, here's a clue," before crushing several fortune cookies in her hands and letting the crumbs fall onto the table as a narrator begins to speak.
