President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Saturday to address former President Joe Biden’s reported copious use of the “autopen,” including to sign several last-minute and highly controversial pardons of political and government figures like Sen. Adam Schiff, former Rep. Liz Cheney, and former chief immunologist Dr. Anthony Fauci, as well as Biden’s son Hunter.
“Whoever had control of the ‘AUTOPEN’ is looking to be a bigger and bigger scandal by the moment. It is a major part of the real crime, THAT THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2020 WAS RIGGED AND STOLEN! Millions and millions of people knew that, but the Radical Left Democrats waged a campaign of inoculation and innocence like none that had ever been waged before,” Trump began.
“THIS IS WHY THE UNSELECT COMMITTEE OF POLITICAL THUGS, WHO WERE GIVEN A FULL AND COMPLETE PARDON BY THE PERSON WHO WIELDED THE NOW ILLEGALLY USED AUTOPEN, DELETED AND DESTROYED ALL EVIDENCE AND INFORMATION FROM THEIR CORRUPT AND VICIOUS WITCH HUNT AGAINST ME, AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE, WHOSE LIVES WERE COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND DESTROYED BY THIS HISTORICALLY CRIMINAL EVENT,” he continued.
“Remember, it all began with DIRTY COP James Comey, Obama, a hapless and cognitively impaired Sleepy Joe Biden, and my now very famous ACCUSATION that,’THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN!’ Whoever had control of the Autopen is just the beginning,” Trump wrote.
“The biggest crime of all is that THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WAS RIGGED! I (MAGA!) WON THE ELECTION BY MILLIONS OF VOTES, AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT. GOD BLESS AMERICA, FOR THE FIGHT HAS JUST BEGUN!!!” he concluded.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) announced Friday that the committee has launched an investigation into former President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to authorize a series of controversial last-minute pardons.
“So our newest investigation at [the] Oversight Committee is we’re investigating the autopen, and I think we’ve identified the staffer” who was using it, the chairman said during a speech at the Republican National Lawyers Association’s policy conference in Washington, according to the Washington Examiner. “If what we think is going to play out on the autopen [investigation], it’s going to create a strong case on the pardons.”
