President Donald Trump just terminated all documents that were signed during the administration of former President Joe Biden, using an autopen. 

Trump, according to the Daily Caller, announced the move on Friday.

The move was not completely unexpected, especially as many continue to question whether this extensive use of the autopen by the Biden administration was lawful.

". . . is hereby terminated."

Trump announced the order on social media.

The president wrote:

Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect. The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States.

Trump went on to argue that those surrounding Biden "took the presidency away from him."

He continued:

The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury.

"Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Trump concluded.

Background

Fox News reports on the controversy surrounding the autopen situation.

Per the outlet:

The autopen device, which holds a real pen and signs paper using a handwriting template, automatically reproduces a person’s signature with high accuracy. The U.S. government has used autopens since the Truman administration, and the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel previously confirmed use of the device is legal for presidential signatures on legislation and executive acts, so long as it is authorized by the president.

The big question, though, is whether or not Biden did indeed approve the signatures. Trump and many others have claimed that Biden did not.

Congress has been investigating the matter.

Breitbart News reports:

In late October, the House Oversight Committee “urged the Justice Department to investigate executive actions taken by President Joe Biden’s (D) administration, stating that some orders were issued without his explicit approval,” Breitbart News reported. The report alleged some of Biden’s aides may have used the autopen to sign off on some of the actions without him knowing about it.
