Were Biden's pardons signed with autopen?

Writer: FNBCFNBC

President Trump has raised questions about the legitimacy of some of President Biden's pardons, claiming that 'many' were signed automatically using an autopen rather than by hand, which he suggests could render them void. The technology of the autopen has been around for decades and has been used by various presidents for signing routine documents to manage their heavy workloads more efficiently. However, the use of an autopen for such a significant act as granting pardons raises ethical and legal questions about the personal touch and intentionality traditionally associated with the presidential pardon power. The debate is likely to continue as legal experts and political leaders weigh in on the implications of this practice for the integrity of presidential acts.
