Joe Biden himself is also facing brutal news this week.
The Kentucky Republican told “Just the News” that Biden’s frequent use of the autopen raises serious legal concerns.
“It’s questionable whether or not it’s legal to use an autopen on a legal document, but what’s not questionable is if the President of the United States had no idea what was being signed with using the autopen in his name,” Comer said. “Then, you know, that’s not legal. We could see criminal charges against some.” Comer said his committee’s evidence could also be used to call into question some of Biden’s clemency acts, noting that the president’s poor summer 2024 debate performance “gave rise to questions about his mental capacity.” Biden dropped out of the race one month later and endorsed Kamala Harris.
The 44-year-old ex-first daughter filed the paperwork in Philadelphia’s Court of Common Pleas on Monday, according to The Post
Former Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz told Just the News in March that such challenges would “end up in court.” He explained there would be two main issues: “One, the nature of what was signed – was it a pardon, or was it a bill from Congress, for example. And second, the nature of the autopen.”
Day 5 of Biden’s presidency, and the autopen was already in play. Day 5! Three different autopens in rotation. By 2022, its use skyrocketed. This isn’t just a procedural glitch it’s a constitutional crisis waiting to explode.

So an autopen would raise a real problem if he signed it by autopen, which is not a real signature.”
On pardons, he said, “it will still raise the issue: Did he actually pardon? Or did somebody else just write the signature without really getting approval from President Biden?”
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer says his investigation into Joe Biden’s mental decline could be used to challenge some of the former president’s pardons and executive orders, arguing staff have failed to prove Biden knew what he was signing in his final months in office
Biden’s first debate of the 2024 campaign season was described as “halting” and “disoriented,” with former Obama adviser David Axelrod saying, “I think there was a sense of shock actually, how he came out at the beginning of this debate… I think the panic had set in.”
Special Counsel Robert Hur’s February 2025 report on Biden’s handling of classified documents noted he “would likely present himself… as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” Hur said Biden could not recall the years he was vice president or the year his son Beau died.
Last month, Biden defended his decisions regarding pardons to The New York Times, stating, “I made every decision” on pardons; however, aides confirmed that he “did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons.”
