The presidential signature is supposed to be ‘sacred’. It’s the signet ring of the ruler. And the big question with Biden’s use of the ‘autopen’ is who was actually signing Biden’s name?
The answer for anything more important than a ‘thank you’ letter to Boy Scout Troop 101 should have been only Joe.
But that’s not the answer.
Neera Tanden, who served as director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, explained in her opening remarks Tuesday that she was given authority to wield the autopen. She said she “was responsible for handling the flow of documents to and from the president” and was authorized to direct autopen use from October 2021 to May 2023 when she was serving as staff secretary and senior adviser to Biden.
“As staff secretary, I was responsible for handling the flow of documents to and from the president,” she said. “I was also authorized to direct that autopen signatures be affixed to certain categories of documents. We had a system for authorizing the use of the autopen that I inherited from prior administrations. We employed that system throughout my tenure as staff secretary.”
The real question is when Tanden or anyone else signed ‘categories of documents’ that require a presidential signature to validate.
Maybe whoever did should have also signed their own pardon.
Fascinating legal issue.
When does an illegal law become legitimate for having been in effect for a long time?
Leftie actor/activist Sean Penn 💩 is so enamored of Biden’s pardons, he is trying to persuade his son Hopper 🦘 to name HIS firstborn son Otto 🖋️ .
Biden the Auto Pen President and #1 Worst
The autopen story requires a much deeper dive by Congress and the FBI with severe ramifications for those ultimately responsible because we know it was abused. I’m aware of at least two cases where Biden was asked why he signed particular legislation and responded, “I didn’t. I didn’t sign that.”
As one who’s had the sad experience of dealing with a loved one with dementia, when I was able to act as their “brain”, providing finite details of a particular story, they were able to finish the story with even further details.
Never once did they say it didn’t happen.
