“The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday published its final report on its investigation into the Biden’s administration’s use of an autopen, concluding that at least some of the president’s orders were invalid and calling on the Justice Department to investigate.”

This is not a big surprise. Blanket autopen pardons are a joke. The man was too senile to run for a 2 nd term…yet his autopen blanket pardons are considered VALID?


  • Capacity Is Key: Signing is valid only if the person understands what the document means at the time.
  • Fluctuating Ability: Dementia affects cognition differently day to day, capacity must be assessed in the moment.
  • Types of Documents: Contracts, wills, or powers of attorney require varying levels of legal understanding.
  • Professional Evaluation: Doctors, attorneys, or notaries may need to confirm decision-making capacity.
  • Legal Challenges: Documents signed without proper capacity can be contested or invalidated later.
  • Plan Early: Setting up powers of attorney, trusts, and advance directives early reduces risk of disputes.

Those autopen blanket pardons are a joke and should all be invalidated.

Well how about they un-pardon them so we can go after them? They've obviously committed crimes, otherwise they wouldn't have been preemptively pardoned.

I think the BLANKET pardons were created by the Biden administration.

I thought previous pardons were for unfair convictions…not anything they may have done during the entire Biden term.

That shit is bizarre.

If lefties support autopen blanket pardons, they WOULD HAVE NO ISSUES WITH TRUMP GIVING BLANKET PARDONS TO EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF HIS ADMINISTRATION.

Lefties, you wont cry about that if it happens….right? 😂
 
The Presidential Pardon is an ABSOLUTE grant of power provided by the Constitution, as evidenced by Trump and the January 6th terrorists. The report is worth less than nothing and the DOJ CAN DO NOTHING.

While I firmly believe the Pardon power should not be granted to the Executive, it is.

What about Ford's pardon of Nixon?

Fine, then don't get all whiney when Trump pardons himself and the whole of his administration on his way out.

Truth be told I don't see any other way vile dem lawfare can be prevented.
 
Biden was asleep at the wheel and his handlers ran the country.

That's just an excuse. The Bidenistas claim that he was in full control of his facilities, and this they'll defend to the very end. Therefore he should be accountable for everything he did while in office, including the blanket pardons he issued, as well as his mishandling of the Ukraine War.

What about it?

It was not autopen and it was for a specific crime.

Compare that pardon to a BLANKET AUTOPEN PARDON OF FAUCI, HUNTER BIDEN, MAYORKAS….

Interesting you have to go back to the early 1970s to cry, 50 years ago. 😂
 
Hahahaha so what? It's the House of Trump, and the DOJ of Trump. But he doesn't own the courts. Most of the judges even he appointed still follow the law. Even if the Neo-GOP allows him to be lawless, take unconstitutional actions, and break all the norms both parties have followed since Nixon, without question.
 
They dont have the authority to declare that. In fact... no one does.

But the power doesn't extend to staffers, stupid.

Why are you still laughing? You lost the most vital election of the 21st century, and Trump is running rampant all over everything you Dems worked so hard for.

Now if you really want to talk about "lawless" and "unconstitutional", let's talk about those liberal judges who think they can circumvent the executive and legislative branches and make their own laws from the bench. Thank God the Trump administration and the Supreme Court is knocking their dicks in the dirt. And there's still 3-1/2 years to go.

Really? Staffers can sign pardons and there is no oversight?

You really are a moron.

The Constitution doesn’t even require that the pardon be written, so the idea that the signature is by autopen rather than by handwritten signature is not relevant to the constitutionality because Article II just says that the President has the power to pardon. Shit you can ask Biden today if he pardoned them.

Article II, Section 2, Clause 1:

The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

Listen Nostradumbass... You are a dumbass.

No shit Sherlock.

Please go down this path. I look forward to the merciless prosecution of the J6ers being reinstated and the prosecution of every member of the Trump Admin and his family in 2029.

It's a House of Cards that Trumpybear built. Republicans and Democrats working together through dialog, finding consensus, and working for compromise, built the worlds greatest superpower since the end of WWII. That era seems to be over.

You mean judges like Kacsmaryk in Texas who tried outlawed the abortion pill in a nationwide injunction?
