The drive-by media won’t tell you the truth about what’s happening with Biden’s pardons, but I will. And let me be crystal clear about what’s really happening here. Ed Martin, the pardon attorney under Trump’s Justice Department, is investigating the sneakiness behind Democrat Joe Biden’s last-minute pardons.
Martin’s digging into whether ‘Sleepy Joe’ was even aware of these pardons or if others were pulling the strings using the AutoPen. Autopen is a device used to automatically sign documents, and it’s been the center of many claims from Trump and his supporters that Biden’s use of it questions his awareness or even the legality of his actions.
This whole situation with Biden’s AutoPen pardons is exactly what we’ve been predicting on this program. We’ve got Biden sneaking in pardons for members of his family and commuting death sentences for federal inmates. Five family members pardoned to shield them from ‘future politically motivated investigations,’ he says. Among them were his siblings James, Frank, and Valerie and their spouses, John and Sara. And let’s not forget his son, Hunter Biden, who was pardoned for tax violations and firearms-related charges.
The U.S. Constitution gives the president broad power to issue pardons. Trump himself has made extensive use of executive clemency. For instance, he granted clemency Jan. 20 to all of the nearly 1,600 of his supporters who faced criminal charges in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Martin previously served as the interim U.S. attorney in Washington before his nomination for that post foundered in the Senate.
This isn’t just about the pardons. It’s about Biden’s health and mental acuity. This man, who’s 82, dropped his reelection bid amid questions about his mental fitness after a disastrous presidential debate performance. Biden was the oldest person to serve as U.S. president, and Trump is the second oldest. Yet, Biden’s closest aides have dismissed those concerns, saying Biden was fully capable of making important decisions.
A Justice Department memo from 2005 found it was legitimate for a subordinate to use an autopen for the president’s signature. Now, isn’t that convenient? Let me break this down in plain English. They’re saying it’s okay for someone else to sign official documents on behalf of the president.
We will closely monitor this story and keep you updated on any further information regarding Biden and his autopen.
