If Biden was still officially in charge, than then auto-pen sigs are legal and official.
I think we need to look into everything being signed by Trump. He is clearly not mentally well.
They are legal and official in cases where he authorized its use. They are not legal or official if used without his authorization. That's the relevant question: was it ever used without his authorization? Saying Biden was in charge doesn't actually answer that question.
Biden can authorize any use he wants to, but a paper trail could in some cases indicate after the fact whether such authorization was granted. Verbal authorization can suffice so a paper trail isn't necessary, but in principle at least a paper trail could demonstrate someone was or even wasn't authorized to use it.
The autopen was never used without his explicit authorization. Every bill or EO it was used to sign, Biden was fully aware of.
How do you know? It may be correct, but what's the evidentiary basis for this claim?
Biden has or will shortly say so.
Oh my. Your prior declaration was so authoritative, but now I find that it is based merely on hope.
Do you have any evidence that Biden or ANY other President has had bills signed in his name without his knowledge??
No. And I didn't claim so much either.
Then there's nothing to worry about. Meanwhile your President is losing his mind and threatening to cancel all of Musk's contracts, including SpaceX. Maybe you should spend more time worrying about that.
Oh, I never said I was worried either. I'm just discussing possibilities. Does that bother you?
Possibilities based on obsessive attacking of a dead-man walking, in order to divert attention away from your President who is currently in a full-on melt down war with Elon Musk on X and Truth Social.
I haven't attacked Biden lately. My criticism has been towards the people around him. They aren't dying. Why would you use his health problems to excuse their behavior?
This is a very strange argument to make. This isn't a Trump thread, it's a Biden Presidency thread. Are you trying to suggest that participating in any thread not about Trump is an attempt to divert attention away from Trump?
I might ask the same. If you want to discuss Trump, why don't you do so, in a thread about Trump? I'm not stopping you. I'm not stopping anyone. If anyone is trying to divert attention, it's you. You're trying to divert attention from an on topic issue to an off topic issue.
What behavior?
Lying about his condition.
Because you can't just use the White House autopen at will. It has counter, and a log. Every signing is accounted for by audit. The folks the run the machine are government employees who are subject to all kinds of pound-me-in-the-*ss prison sentences if laws, and procedures are violated.
His cancer diagnosis?? They just found out.
No, his mental condition.
You mean old age?
I mean severely diminished mental capacity. The precise cause is beside the point.
Which neurologist made this diagnosis or determination? When was the examination?
He should say nothing, due to Executive Privilege.
Wow. This is what you’re going with? That he didn’t have diminished capacity?
Many old people do. Doesn't mean he wasn't fully capable of fulfilling his duties as President.
Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt.
Yes, and Trump lost.
