Biden's Pardons Under Scrutiny Amid Cognitive Decline Allegations
A report has surfaced alleging a significant coverup of President Biden's cognitive decline, suggesting that executive actions, including pardons, should be voided without clear documentation of Biden's authorization. Meanwhile, Biden has stated that all pardons were his decision, with autopen used due to the volume of signatures required.
Historically, there's a precedent for voiding a pardon, dating back to a post-Revolution case in Virginia where three men's treason pardons were voided due to lack of Senate concurrence. However, there's no constitutional or legal basis for voiding presidential pardons. Despite this, a growing movement by Republicans aims to nullify some of Biden's pardons, including those issued to his son Hunter and those preemptively granted to individuals who targeted or investigated Trump. Trump himself declared Biden's autopen-signed pardons as 'VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT'. The House Oversight Committee, led by Republicans, is investigating Biden's use of the autopen for signing pardons. The power to pardon is one of the few unchecked powers in American government, as per the Constitution. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Trump's pardon attorney, Ed Martin, are involved in investigations or statements regarding Biden's pardons.
While some argue that Biden's pardons should be voided due to alleged cognitive decline or autopen use, there's no constitutional or legal precedent for doing so. The investigation into Biden's pardon process continues, but the outcome remains uncertain.
