A government watchdog has accused the Biden administration of employing an autopen to sign nearly all of former President Joe Biden\u2019s executive orders, sparking questions about who was truly making key decisions during his tenure.<\/p>\n

An autopen is an electromechanical device that precisely replicates a person\u2019s signature. High-ranking officials, including U.S. presidents, sometimes use it to sign large volumes of documents without their direct input.<\/p>\n
Although legally acceptable in some cases, its use for signing critical legal documents\u2014especially without transparent oversight\u2014has raised concerns about authenticity and accountability.<\/p>\n
A report from the Oversight Project, which is a division of the right-leaning Heritage Foundation, claims that every document featuring Biden\u2019s signature\u2014aside from the letter announcing his withdrawal from the 2024 race\u2014seems to have been produced using an autopen.<\/p>\n
These findings have sparked concerns about Biden\u2019s cognitive state and raised questions over whether unelected officials were effectively making decisions on his behalf.<\/p>\n
\u201cWHOEVER CONTROLLED THE AUTOPEN CONTROLLED THE PRESIDENCY,\u201d the Oversight Project declared on X, along with images comparing Biden\u2019s signatures. The watchdog alleged that during Biden\u2019s presidency, important executive actions\u2014such as orders, pardons, and directives\u2014were likely signed without his direct involvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
