Staff Reports
Joe Biden’s latest confession about his pardon spree is nothing short of a scandal wrapped in incompetence and blatant disregard for the rule of law. It turns out, the so-called “leader of the free world” didn’t actually sign off on each and every criminal he was supposedly “pardoning.” Instead, Biden handed out blanket criteria and let his staff pull the trigger on a massive stack of pardons with the help of a fancy autopen machine. That’s right—while Americans demand accountability, Biden passes the buck to bureaucrats and tech gadgets to rubber-stamp freedom for swaths of convicted criminals. It’s a disgrace and a clear sign that this administration never took the presidency seriously.

Biden Tells NYT He Did NOT Individually Approve Names of Many Pardoned Via Autopen https://t.co/8t3a9UEgiv via @BreitbartNews— The MAGA Mall (@MallMaga) July 14, 2025
This isn’t just about forgetfulness or being overwhelmed—this is about laziness and an utter lack of respect for the justice system. Biden set broad strokes guidelines but left it up to aides and the Bureau of Prisons to fill in the blanks. Those aides then slotted names into the autopen machine, effectively turning the hard work of clemency into a crony-run conveyor belt. The fact that Chief of Staff Jeffrey Zients personally gave the green light for this autopen usage shows a White House that’s more about convenience than constitutional duty. Meanwhile, America’s most vulnerable taxpayers have to suffer higher crime rates and longer sentences while the political elite play fast and loose with justice.
And don’t dare overlook the obvious here—this isn’t the kind of professionalism we expect from a president entrusted with real power. This is the kind of sloppy, bureaucratic mess that belongs in a third-rate HR department, not the Oval Office. Biden’s reliance on the autopen and his aides’ judgment raises seismic questions about his mental fitness to hold office in the first place. If you can’t put pen to paper to sign off on big decisions like pardons, how can you possibly manage the complexities of the presidency? The optics here are grim—and rightly so. This revelation feeds the well of doubt about Biden’s cognitive abilities, which detractors have been reluctant to speak up about publicly.
Let’s be clear—this isn’t just a simple paperwork issue. It’s yet another glaring example of liberal hypocrisy and decadence. While Biden pardons criminals en masse without a second thought, the same leftists howl like banshees when conservatives demand accountability for minor infractions. This is a political elite that believes rules apply only when convenient and punishments are for everyone but their friends. Their brand of “justice” rewards lawlessness and punishes hard-working Americans who just want to live in safe communities. The message is loud and clear: the ruling class protects its own, no matter the cost to ordinary citizens.
If Biden was so concerned with being hands-on, why didn’t he just do the job himself? Why trust his staff and a machine to decide who gets mercy and who doesn’t? The answer is terrifyingly simple—he either couldn’t be bothered or couldn’t handle it. This is the administration we trusted to lead our nation? The one that treats presidential duties like a chore to be outsourced? America deserves better. America deserves a leader who picks up the pen and stands by his decisions. The real question is, if this is how Joe Biden handles pardons, what else in this administration is being handed off to machines and aides without his real involvement? Where’s the accountability, the respect, and the leadership? The American people deserve answers. They deserve a president, not a puppet show.
