Summary

Trump declared Biden’s pardons “VOID” in a late-night Truth Social post, claiming they were signed by autopen without Biden’s knowledge—despite Trump having used autopen during his first term.

Trump warned pardoned individuals, including January 6th committee members (who weren’t charged with crimes), that they’re “subject to investigation at the highest level.”

Critics characterized his statements as “dictator shit” and questioned their legality, with one commenting this represents “the 17th constitutional crisis of just this weekend alone.”

      He’s saying its because of the auto pen. If he signed with hand then he won’t think it’s invalid.

        Doesn’t matter pardons have specifically and by my estimate intentionally not been brought lined in basically any way. There are traditions by the rest is sorta wishy washy.

          Dude is not following any sorta norms. He’s making shit up as he goes. If the Supreme Cunts say he’s right then it’s the rule.
