The Autopen POLL
In recent news, former President Donald Trump has claimed that pardons signed by President Joe Biden using an autopen—a device that mechanically replicates signatures—are invalid. Trump argues that Biden was unaware of these pardons, rendering them void.
However, legal experts note that the U.S. Constitution does not require presidents to manually sign pardons, and the use of autopens has been a longstanding practice among past presidents. For example, President Barack Obama used an autopen to sign the Patriot Act extension in 2011.
