GOP-led Oversight Committee says Biden pardons signed by autopen are ‘void’ in final report

If they're opening this box what makes you think they'd do it if they wouldn't still have power in 3 years? Everything they're doing they're doing like they're never gonna not be in power. We should all be paying attention to that.

This won't go anywhere. There's plenty of public examples of Biden discussing the pardons. He's still lucid enough to testify if needed.

Actual legality doesn’t matter. It’s a pretext.

SCOTUS "Turns out pardons not signed by pen are void. However tthis only applies to President's not named Donald J. Trump. It's in the Consitution. No, you can't see the real consitution. The real consitution is in Canada for safe keeping."

Not to mention that using ANY mark is considered a signature, no matter the method of affixing it to the document. It's an ADA compliance thing - you can't discriminate based on the method of signing.

Trump is pardoning so many people it could be argued that the volume makes it unlikely he's "aware of the substance of the various pardons and commutations".

As with anything else here, "auto pen" is one of the objects of aggrievement Trump's leaky puddle of a brain has clinged in to, and the handlers throw it in these memos to appease him. It's the exact same reason he is still ranting about the navy's catapults. I guarantee you that in private he does nothing but talk random times people have disagreed with him over the years.

I had to look at the publication date on that article three times because I thought that there was no way he’s that stupid that he’s still saying this after he said it the first time years ago. Surely someone explained to him how magnets work by now, but nope, the article is from a few days ago, and he has again proven that his stupidity knows no bounds.

Whelp. Trump said it, it must be true. He is truth after and has never lied once in his biblically perfect life.

In theory, electromagnets can be damaged by water. But Trump seems to be conflating all kinds of things in his rambling speech.

Lol you expect the GOP to live up to a standard they place on other people? I thought the whole reason for being a Republican was to tell others what to do while trying to ignore the people as much as possible.

Lol they don't care, they don't follow precedent, that is one of the major reasons they are winning so decisively.

So you genuinely believe they would give the office of the president this power if they ever thought anyone else would wield that power? This is a clear signal that Republicans will not cede power peacefully.

The problem is this will be selectively applied. Democrats won't "stoop so low" as to void pardons, and Republicunts will keep voiding them as suits their purpose. Neither side of course will address any larger structural issue than that

But the Dems won't use it because it isn't proper and how it was done.
