Washington D.C. - The Trump administration's Justice Department is examining pardons issued during Joe Biden's time in office, sources familiar with the matter have revealed. The review encompasses a range of pardons, including those granted to Hunter Biden and individuals previously sentenced to death.
The investigation reportedly centers on the process by which these pardons were approved, with specific attention paid to the use of an automated pen device, often referred to as an 'AutoPen.' This technology automatically signs documents, raising concerns about the level of personal involvement and decision-making by the former president.
Critics of the inquiry suggest it is politically motivated, while supporters argue it is a necessary step to ensure the integrity of the pardon power. The investigation is ongoing, and no conclusions have been reached at this time.
