Former President Joe Biden’s announcement of a forthcoming memoir drew swift mockery from conservatives Wednesday, with critics reviving questions about his health, age and use of an autopen during his presidency. "This guy couldn't even sign his own name. He's not writing books. LMAO," wrote former Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt on X. "Politicians write books to launder money. Nobody wants to read this, but the corrupt NGOs he provided for as President will buy up 100K copies and burn 'em to hold up their end of the bribes,’" the former reality TV star added.

The memoir is set to come out on Nov. 17, about two weeks after the midterms. Biden announced the book in a video posted to X Wednesday. He added that he has been receiving treatment for his cancer diagnosis and that it has been going "really well." "It's about the challenges we face as a nation and about the decisions I made and why I made them, leading the country through co rebuilding our economy and restoring our democracy after the attack on January 6th, ending our nation's longest war in Afghanistan, strengthening NATO and supporting Ukraine," Biden said.
