The Biden autopen scandal just got a whole lot bigger. Newly-released emails between Biden White House aides just dropped a major bombshell. And, if you’ve been reading this website for awhile, you know that we do not use that term lightly around here. These emails confirm that Joe Biden did not personally review the thousands of pardons handed out to criminals in the last days of his sham presidency. See for yourself: BREAKING: Biden White House emails seem to confirm Joe Biden himself did NOT review pardons before they were sent to the auto pen This scandal just got MUCH bigger!

A top Biden White House aide emailed colleagues saying “[Biden] doesn’t review the warrants,” and was seemingly befuddled by the legality of the clemency, which were being worked out on the night of Jan 16 [1] An aide even wrote up a TEMPLATE for each pardon pretending like Biden himself had verbally approved the pardons. [2] THOUSANDS of pardons and commutations were approved mere hours later, on Jan 17 at 4:59am ET MOST BIDEN PARDONS ARE ILLEGITIMATE! Here’s a closer look at these damning emails: And, there it is. Plain as day. “He doesn’t review the warrants.” In another email, the aides discussed creating a template in “first-person” to confirm that Biden agreed to each pardon. See here: Rep. James Comer, who is leading the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into Biden’s mental decline and the notorious autopen pardons shared the news on X: BREAKING: New internal emails reveal Joe Biden’s sweeping pardons sparked concern inside the Biden West Wing & DOJ over whether his wishes were followed. It’s unclear if Joe Biden himself was even consulted before THOUSANDS of pardons went out.https://t.co/on5DeZ8CJO — Rep. James Comer (@RepJamesComer) September 4, 2025 This is wild stuff. It really looks like there is now solid grounds for voiding the majority of Joe Biden’s pardons. Don’t take it from me. Take it from the House Oversight Committee: The pardons are no good, in many different ways at the same time. Great work by @GOPoversight https://t.co/UQWQRMInR3 — Oversight Project (@ItsYourGov) September 4, 2025 The New York Post has more: President Biden’s sweeping clemency grants during his final days in office caused concern inside the West Wing and Justice Department about how to ensure his wishes were accurately implemented — and it’s unclear whether Biden himself was consulted before thousands of pardons were announced, internal emails obtained exclusively by The Post show. The messages indicate the 46th president orally approved commutations for inmates jailed for crack cocaine offenses on Jan. 11 — but his auto-penned signature wasn’t affixed to three documents listing about 2,500 recipients until the morning of Jan. 17. The debate over who exactly to include in the mass pardons and how to modify their sentences came to a head late on the night of Jan. 16. Then-White House Staff Secretary Stef Feldman, a key gatekeeper of the presidential autopen, wrote to West Wing lawyers she needed evidence Biden had consented before she authorized a mechanical signature on one of the most sweeping acts of clemency in American history. “I’m going to need email from [Deputy Assistant to the President] Rosa [Po] on original chain confirming P[resident] signs off on the specific documents when they are ready,” Feldman wrote to five other Biden aides at 9:16 p.m. Six minutes later, deputy White House counsel Tyeesha Dixon, one of the email recipients, forwarded the message to Michael Posada, chief of staff to the White House counsel’s office. “Michael, thoughts on how to handle this?” Dixon asked, adding in reference to the documents authorizing clemency: “He doesn’t review the warrants.” “Ok talked to Stef,” Posada replied to Dixon at 10:06 p.m. “We will just need something from Rosa once the documents are ready confirming that the 21 people commuted to home confinement are who the president signed off on in the document titled X, and the # individuals listed in document titled Y are those with crack powder disparities who the president intended to commute,” he wrote. “Basically, something from Rosa making clear that the documents accurately reflect his decision. If you can give me a blurb whenever they are ready to suggest to Rosa, I can pass along.” The mass clemency was announced hours later, at 4:59 a.m. The exchange took place well outside of Biden’s known regular working schedule — with White House aides leaking to media outlets months earlier that the Democrat was at his best between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on any given day.
