Trump Voids Biden’s Pardons Of Capitol Attack Investigators

Former president Joe Biden’s preventative pardons were canceled by Donald Trump on Monday after an investigation into the attempt to overturn the 2020 US election sparked outrage among members of Congress.

Trump’s legal standing, if any, was undetermined when it came to revoke the presidential pardons his predecessor had issued.

The Republican made the claim that Biden’s signature on the documents was invalid because it was executed using a common tool known as an autopen, without providing any proof that the autopen or his claim that it would invalidate the signature.

Trump stated on his social media account Truth Social that the pardons “were hereby declared void, vacant, and of no further effect” and that they were carried out by Autopen.

Former senior Republican lawmaker Liz Cheney and other members of the congressional committee that had been looking into Trump’s supporters’ attempted attacks on the Capitol on January 6, 2021 and his numerous unsuccessful attempts to overturn the election were granted pardons by Biden.

The lawmakers were effectively shielded from Trump’s repeated threats that he would retaliate against them if he won the 2024 election by receiving blanket immunity from the end of his presidency with the Biden pardons.

Trump gave the impression that his action had crossed a contentious legal line.

When Biden was questioned by reporters early on Monday about whether everything he had signed with an autopen should be void, Trump responded, “I think so. The court will have to decide whether or not I make a decision.

However, he claimed that committee members “should fully comprehend that they are subject to investigation at the highest level.”

Additionally, Biden formally acquitted former Covid pandemic advisor Anthony Fauci, retired general Mark Milley, and, perhaps most controversially, close family members like his son Hunter. The incoming Republican president had made of them all their public targets.

Trump has repeatedly demanded “retribution” for his political rivals, threatened some with legal action, and Biden once said he could not “in good conscience do nothing.”

Trump immediately grantes pardons to his supporters when he took office in January, including pardons for about 1,500 of those who were convicted of evicting from the Capitol building in an effort to stop Biden’s election victory on January 6, 2021.
