Of course, he was probably thinking this before that. But he can lay his hands on a direct moment.
And now the NY Times has a series of articles saying basically the same thing. Of course, they blame Biden's staff, but they themselves are blameless (LOL).

āSir, why did you pause LNG exports to Europe?ā the speaker asked. āI didnāt do that,ā Biden replied. He had, three weeks earlierābut he wasnāt aware of what heād signed.
...
Biden, according to Johnson, was stunned. āI didnāt do that,ā Biden said. Johnson responded, āMr. President, yes you did. It was an executive order like three weeks ago.ā Biden continued to deny that he paused the LNG exports. At that point, Johnson suggested that the president ask the presidentās secretary to print out the executive order, so the two could read it together.
Biden then recalled that he had signed an executive order, but it only called for a study on the effects of LNG. Johnson was firm. āSir, you paused it, I know. I have the export terminals in my state. I talked to those people in my state, Iāve talked to those people this morning, this is doing massive damage to our economy, national security.ā
In this exchange, Johnson said he realized that Biden was not lying to him. āHe genuinely did not know what he had signed,ā Johnson said. āAnd I walked out of that meeting with fear and loathing because I thought, āWe are in serious troubleāwho is running the country?ā Like, I don't know who put the paper in front of him, but he didnāt know.ā
Johnson said in a follow-up answer that he did not know who was really running the country. His theory is that Biden agreed to place more leftist progressives in key positions in exchange for his primary rivals dropping out of the race.
