In a decision that will be cheered by conservatives, the Department of Justice (DOJ) under President Trump’s leadership is delving into the pardons issued by former President Joe Biden.
See the tweet below!
This investigation seeks to address whether Biden was fully competent in issuing these pardons or if undue influence from unelected aides played a role.
Key figures, including Biden’s family members and others potentially close to the political sphere, are now under the microscope.
The Trump administration’s DOJ review raises critical questions about Biden’s usage of the autopen to sign pardons, a device that mechanically replicates signatures and has been a point of contention among conservatives.
With allegations swirling about Biden’s mental acuity, evidence of unelected influence emerges, threatening to undermine the integrity of clemency during his presidency.
The probe targets clemency for his son, Hunter Biden, family members, and former associates from the House Select January 6th Committee.
A recent analysis by the Oversight Project highlighted extensive autopen use for Biden’s executive orders and pardons.
This long-standing controversy, rooted in executive actions from past administrations, seeks to validate Trump’s assertion that Biden’s acts were “void due to the autopen.”
The DOJ has tasked pardon attorney Ed Martin with leading this in-depth inquiry.
Martin, having supported Trump proponents in past controversies, instills a sense of cautious optimism among conservatives that truth and transparency will ultimately prevail.
The examination also encompasses pardons for Biden family members, revealing stark contrasts between Biden and Trump-era policies.
A detailed review of these pardons and commutations for 37 federal death row inmates is underway.
Critics of Biden have not held back, questioning the wisdom behind allowing pardons for individuals convicted of defrauding taxpayers.
This prospect is raising eyebrows about favoritism and potential quid pro quos amongst Biden’s close circles.
Critics demand a transparent unveiling of facts, emphasizing that the DOJ’s silence on specific review details only fuels suspicions.
This renewed scrutiny mirrors inquiries by House and Senate Republicans focused on Biden’s mental acuity.
This intense spotlight on the former president’s capabilities is aligned with the broader inquiries into his final months in office.
Conservative voices, such as White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, suggest that even former First Lady Jill Biden should address these allegations if public trust is to be thoroughly restored.
“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump has said.

As the investigation unfolds, the public hopes that it uncovers not only procedural discrepancies in Biden’s pardons but also the broader impacts of Democrat-led governance.
By taking decisive actions, the current administration aims to reaffirm the importance of executive integrity, thereby addressing the concerns and frustrations of the American people who demand accountability in their leadership.
