The autopen is being kicked to the curb. Anything that was signed by Joe Biden using the autopen is now being revoked by President Trump.
President Trump claimed Friday that he was repealing all documents signed by former President Joe Biden using an autopen — and threatened to have his predecessor “brought up on charges of perjury” if he asserts that staffers were acting on his orders when using the mechanical.
Trump, 79, has for months characterized Biden, 83, as AWOL during his four-year term and claimed that unelected aides were running the country without authorization.
“Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect. The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
We’ve asked time and again if Joe knew any details of what was signed on his behalf. But the Biden WH staff along with Jill and Hunter kept the wagons circled and lips zipped on what Joe did and didn’t know during his entire time in office.
Oh, it’s a given that he did know full well he was giving a massive blanket pardon to his son. But was he reminded of the fact that, months earlier, he stated he’d let the law play out and the chips fall where they may? Essentially saying he would NOT pardon his son. I’d say the answer is No, he didn’t, and B. Hunter and Jill sure as hell weren’t going to remind him of that.
But it’s the rest of the nearly 4500 pardons and all the Executive Orders that are a problem.
Did Joe know what he was signing? Did Joe know what he was talking about when he gave, if he did, the ok for the autopen to be used in his stead? Did Joe know his executive orders were harming the country? I doubt it. Even many on the White House staff had doubts.
CNN went into full spin mode to explain how the use of the autopen was always ok.
In 2005, the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel (under Republican President George W. Bush) conducted an extensive review of the legality of a president using the autopen. It found that “the President need not personally perform the physical act of affixing his signature to a bill to sign it within the meaning of Article I, Section 7.”
Trump has most often focused his autopen theory on Biden’s pardons. But there too, established legal advice from past administrations undermines the claim. A 1929 memo from the US solicitor general noted that the Constitution didn’t even prescribe a method for issuing pardons.
Ok… but did Joe actually KNOW what documents were being signed by autopen and did he have any clue as to what was ON those documents? That folks, is the real question. Not the actual use of the autopen itself.
Secondly, while there is no actual described method for pardons, we certainly want a President who is cognizant of who is asking for pardons and why. And why the pardon was granted. In other words, no matter the method, the President has to be fully cognizant and involved.
Biden pardoned the January 6th committee, Gen Mark Milley, Fauci, and Hunter, with the Autopen.

Trump just TERMINATED all Biden’s autopen documents.
Their pardons should be VOID. https://t.co/EeRZ4ZjMHv pic.twitter.com/sa7poPBMo9
What did Joe know about all his autopen Exec orders and pardons? No one from the Biden Administration wants to answer those questions.
Keep in mind, WH staff are ON RECORD talking about the Joe’s confusion and trying to get information through to him.
Biden signed about 160 Executive Orders including the Operation Allies Welcome, orders regarding throwing the border wide open and more. He supposedly signed over 4500 pardons and clemencies.
Only one problem. Did he REALLY sign or approve the use of the autopen?
Former President Joe Biden has acknowledged in a stunning new interview that he didn’t agree to the name of every person who received one of the 46th president’s sweeping pardons — with emails indicating that then-White House chief of staff Jeff Zients approved the use of the notorious White House autopen.
As we know, Jeff Zients is the one who wrote the late night email approving the autopen pardons for Joe’s family.
Prior to this, President Trump has declared the Exec Orders and parsons as VOID. This time around he wants them to be actually repealed and kicked to the curb.
Is that possible? That’s a good question. Is it possible to quite likely that Joe didn’t know he was approving the use of the autopen for specific documents, such as those that threw our borders into the ditch? Yep.
What this IS doing is shining a bigger spotlight on the veracity of Joe’s claims that he knew exactly what he was doing the entire time he was in office.
As it pertains to pardons, the only way to test this action by President Trump, cancelling Joe’s Autopen executive actions, is to indict someone who received one and let SCOTUS sort it out

Should we start with Fauci as the test case? pic.twitter.com/rd58imVTQS
