Trump Challenges Legality of Biden’s Autopen Pardons

Former President Donald Trump challenges the validity of recent pardons issued by President Joe Biden, asserting they lack legal force because they were signed using an autopen rather than by hand. Trump argues that this method calls into question Biden’s awareness and authority regarding the pardons, specifically those granted to members of the congressional committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riot.

While Trump’s claims have drawn attention, it’s important to note that presidents have used autopens for decades, and legal interpretations indicate that no law prohibits their use for pardons. A 2005 Justice Department opinion affirmed that autopen signatures can be legitimate for signing legislation, and historical precedents support this practice. As scrutiny increases from conservative groups regarding Biden’s use of the autopen, the implications for presidential powers and the nature of executive clemency come into sharper focus.
