Why everyone on Biden’s pardon list has a pit in their stomachs:President Trump kicked off his ninth week in office bright and early with a new claim that is certain to raise eyebrows. He tried to deem former President Biden’s pardons of Jan. 6 committee members and others “void” because he signed them with an autopen.
Trump posted on Truth Social: “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’s reasoning: He alleges that Biden did not know about these pardons, making them void. But as NBC News notes, the Constitution does not include provisions for pen choice.

Keep in mind: Right before Trump’s inauguration, Biden pardoned people he thought could be perceived as Trump’s political enemies to protect them from any retaliation.
That included the House lawmakers who investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot, members of the Biden family, Anthony Fauci and Gen. Mark Milley.
Trump told reporters on Sunday evening he’ll let a court decide if Biden signing the pardons using an autopen represents a loophole to challenge the pardons themselves.
