Trump Announces Termination of Autopen-Signed Documents by Biden: Legal Implications and Controversy
President Donald Trump recently made a statement on Truth Social claiming that he has terminated all documents signed by former President Joe Biden with the autopen. Trump stated that any document signed by Biden with the autopen, which he estimated to be around 92% of them, is now null and void. He emphasized that the autopen should not be used without the explicit approval of the current President of the United States. Trump criticized the use of the autopen during Biden's presidency, alleging that it was done illegally without Biden's direct involvement. He asserted that he is canceling all Executive Orders and other documents not directly signed by Biden, as he believes they were improperly executed. Trump's statement raises questions about the legal basis for his actions and the implications of his decision.
