The announcement did not emerge in a vacuum. For more than a year, reports—from watchdogs to congressional investigators—have painted a picture of a presidency increasingly outsourced to staff as Biden’s cognitive decline accelerated. In March 2025, The Daily Wire detailed findings from the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project showing that Biden’s December 30, 2022 pardons had been signed with the exact same autopen signature while Biden vacationed in the Virgin Islands. Although some high-profile documents—such as Hunter Biden’s pardon and Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 race—appear hand-signed, numerous explosive pardons, including those for Dr. Anthony Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, the January 6 Committee, and members of the Biden family, bore the same autopen imprint.

Meanwhile, further reporting revealed that Biden did not individually approve names for the mass clemency actions signed during his final months. Staff revised lists based on Bureau of Prisons updates and ran the final versions through the autopen without re-presenting them to Biden, according to aides and the New York Times.

The Trump White House, the DOJ, and the House Oversight Committee have been conducting parallel investigations, reviewing what may exceed one million documents bearing Biden’s autopen signature. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt summarized the administration’s view bluntly: Biden “handed the power of the presidency to an autopen.”
And Trump, with characteristic finality, says those documents are done.
