Trump declared Biden’s pardons invalid

Donald Trump recently claimed that some pardons issued by Joe Biden, particularly for members of the January 6 Committee, are invalid because they were signed using an autopen rather than by Biden personally.

Trump declared them “null and void” on his Truth Social platform on March 16, 2025, but legal experts argue he lacks the authority to do so since he is not currently president.

The U.S. Constitution grants the president pardon power, and the use of an autopen has historically been accepted as long as it is authorized by the president.

According to trusted sources like Politico, this claim is largely political with weak legal grounding, though some Republicans are calling for an investigation.
