Allegations have surfaced that numerous signatures, including those on pardons, were executed by an autopen rather than the President himself. The Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project conducted an in-depth analysis of Biden's signatures, concluding that the majority appeared to be produced by an autopen. This revelation has led to pressing questions about the authenticity of these documents and whether Biden had actually sanctioned them.
According to RedState, further intrigue was added when the New York Post reported that an anonymous aide might have employed the autopen without clear authorization from Biden. The source indicated a prevailing internal culture that discouraged questioning, leaving many unable to seek clarification.

On Friday, Trump labeled the autopen issue a "big deal," arguing that it disrespects the presidential office and casts doubt on the legitimacy of the actions signed with it. "You don't use autopen. Number one, it's disrespectful to the office. Number two, maybe it's not even valid because you know who's getting him to sign!" Trump asserted.

The Trump team has made it clear that they do not engage in similar practices, emphasizing that the autopen should be reserved for non-critical tasks, such as general correspondence or document copies.
The use of the autopen for signing legislation was first introduced by Barack Obama, though it appears his use was more limited and reportedly conducted with his explicit approval. The current situation raises concerns about the safeguards in place to prevent misuse, especially given the administration's history of obfuscating Biden's cognitive health.
This unfolding scandal prompts a broader discussion about accountability and transparency within the executive branch. As the investigation progresses, it remains to be seen what impact these revelations will have on public trust and the administration's credibility. The conservative perspective underscores the need for stringent oversight and adherence to traditional values of governance, ensuring that the sanctity of the presidential office is upheld.
