Did you hear Trump’s latest decree?

Yesterday on Truth Social Trump wrote - “The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,”.

I think that's pretty funny – once Trump claimed that he could declassify a document by just thinking about it – so why couldn't Biden do a pardon by Autopen.

Trump also made the claim while on Air force One.
The weather navigation officer on Air Force One - was asked what he thought of Trump’s claim and he said – looks like reign. Cheers!

    I'd care about his decree if he, himself, refrained from calling the former president "Sleepy" --- very unprofessional behavior in my opinion.

    He seems to be a pro, though, at calling many people derogatory names. But only those people who simply disagree with him. though.

    Yours truly, a previously-accused TDS person (I didn't get the TDS clot shot and I feel fine) WelbyQuentin

    Maybe I would of cared about his decree if he had refrained from making fun of Biden’s “skinny” legs (that one was pretty childish) so his decree's mean nothing to me.

    Trump made the autopen clam without providing any evidence or facts. Plus he can’t do that by simply declaring it  - and hereby making it so.

    Cheers!

    Courts will decide for certain. 

    But it is in question as to the validity of anything Biden was claimed to have signed from pardons to Executive Orders.   But this way the ruling courts know what will be the affect or their possible ruling.

    Courts will decide. But Trump has ignored court dissensions in the past and he is doing it again. So so much for he party of law and order. Cheers!

    I just read about what Trump is now saying about the judge that blocked his deportation plan.
    And I think it points out that Trump has no plans on letting courts decide things for certain.

    “This Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge, a troublemaker and agitator who was sadly appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, was not elected President,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.  Cheers!

    According to Title 8, Section 1182 of the U.S. Code, the President has the authority to suspend the entry of "any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States [who] would be detrimental to the interests of the United States".4 This power can remain in place as long as the President considers it necessary.

    This "radical left lunatic" was actually appointed by GW Bush. Fact.
    Three of those on the plane to El Salvador were US citizens and two of them born there. Making someone Stateless is a crime, as if Trump needs any more on his rap sheet.

    Does matter who appointed them....it is how they rule.  Reagan appointed Ruth Ginsberg.  

    (But for the record the judge was appointed in 2011, that was Obama)

    Probably on the plane to an El Salavador prison. This post was edited by my2cents at March 21, 2025 5:41 AM MDT

    "James Emanuel "Jeb" Boasberg (born 1963)[2] is an American lawyer and jurist who is the chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Appointed by President George W. Bush, he served as a judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia from 2002 to 2011, before Barack Obama nominated him to the US district court for the District of Columbia. Chief Justice John G. Roberts appointed him to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) in 2014, and he served as the presiding judge of the FISC from 2020 to 2021. In 2020, he was appointed to the United States Alien Terrorist Removal Court and designated chief judge."

    "Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution, which grants presidents broad clemency powers, says the pardon only needs to be "accepted by its subject" to take effect — and does not mention anything about reversing them after the fact."

    Probably covered by Double Jeopardy. In the case of the Jan 6 insurrectionists, they better hope so. If Trump can do it, so can anybody else. The man can't live forever and Vance hasn't got the cult following.

    Trump signed all is EOs and pardons/commutation.  Biden admin used auto pen.

    And there are people "Biden" issued preemptive pardons. This post was edited by my2cents at March 18, 2025 6:13 AM MDT

    There are NO LAWS governing autopens and Trump himself is using them. Several documents "signed by the President in Washington" were autopenned when he was cheating at golf in Florida.
    By law, a Presidential pardon doesn't even have to be signed, just witnessed. Andrew Johnson was illiterate.

    The courts will decide.  And the way to force a ruling to file charges against on of his preemptive auto-signed pardons.   Because they are the only ones who have standing.  

    EOs have to be signed.  And there were EOs that Biden himself said he did not sign.  (Said I did not do that)
