Biden Breaks Silence On Why He Used The Auto Pen

So let’s get this straight. Joe Biden now admits—admits—that he let his staff use the autopen to sign off on pardons. Not birthday cards, not Christmas thank-you notes, but presidential pardons—including for, oh you know, his own son and some of the most politically radioactive names of his entire administration. But don’t worry, folks. He totally made every decision “personally.” Just… not in writing. Not with his hand. And not with a signature.

That’s right. The president of the United States outsourced the most sacred and irreversible power granted to the Oval Office to… an office gadget.

And the New York Times wants you to believe this is perfectly normal.

This is the same Biden who once claimed Trump was a “threat to democracy” for tweeting mean things, now casually brushing off the fact that he rubber-stamped clemency for 25 people—twenty-five—using a glorified auto-signature machine while allegedly giving a few verbal nods between pudding cups.

We’re talking about pardons, folks. The thing that only one person in the U.S. government has the authority to do. But according to the NYT’s own reporting, Biden was so busy or, let’s be honest, so checked out, that his staff was making last-minute tweaks, adding names, and pushing out statements without even bothering to inform him of the final list.

Yet somehow, we’re supposed to believe every dot and comma had his personal blessing? Sure.

And then—this is rich—they try to cover it all up with a story about some late-night meeting in the Yellow Oval Room. Picture it: Joe Biden sitting up until 10 p.m., energetically combing through names and asking hard questions. The guy who can’t string together a coherent sentence after 4 p.m. is suddenly a sharp-witted legal eagle deep into the night, dotting i’s and crossing t’s. Give me a break.

Let’s just say it out loud: this looks like a cover story. It reads like a lazy Netflix drama with too many plot holes. Staffers emailing each other about what Biden “said” in a meeting that nobody recorded. Draft summaries. Verbal approvals. “I think he nodded.” That’s the level of scrutiny applied to some of the most consequential decisions a president can make.

But maybe the most galling part? The one and only pardon Biden signed by hand was for Hunter. Of course it was.

Forget the millions of Americans crushed by unjust sentences or overzealous prosecutors. Forget the optics. Forget any semblance of impartiality. When it came to Hunter Biden—the guy with the gun charges, the tax dodging, and the very public laptop—Daddy Joe whipped out the pen himself.

He knew that one couldn’t go through the autopen.

And yet, we’re not supposed to raise an eyebrow? Meanwhile, Trump’s out here being accused of authoritarianism for saying Rosie O’Donnell is annoying, while Biden’s team is literally playing Mad Libs with clemency orders.

But Trump’s theory? That’s where it gets spookier.

According to him, Biden wasn’t even behind the wheel. He says it wasn’t Biden who opened the borders or handed out last-minute pardons like Halloween candy—it was the shadowy handlers behind the scenes. The ones who “took over the autopen.” Who made decisions while the so-called Commander-in-Chief was little more than a signature on a stick.

And honestly? At this point, does that even sound far-fetched?

Because if Joe Biden really wasn’t the one making the calls… who was?

And what else did they sign for him?
