🚨Biden’s Own DOJ Threw Red Flag on Autopenned Pardons 🚨
NEW DOCS FROM @EagleEdMartin show Biden’s own DOJ warned against autopenned clemency awards.
@realdonaldtrump should refuse to release inmates that received this illegal clemency and re-arrest those already released.
On Jan. 17, 2025, President Biden autopenned three warrants giving clemency to almost 2,500 people, including murderers, drug traffickers, and gang members.
One warrant awarded clemency to hundreds of federal inmates for “offenses described to the Department of Justice.”
The top career official at DOJ wrote an email to Biden Admin officials calling this autopenned warrant “highly problematic.”
Biden's DOJ had no clue what POTUS intended and called on him to clear the record.
It's HIGHLY UNUSUAL to see demands of the WH like this from the DOJ.
Biden admitted to the @nytimes he did not “individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people.” Instead, he gave broad categories of people to pardon and let staff execute powers that belong only to the President.
That was illegal.
When announcing the Jan. 17, 2025 clemency awards, the Biden White House told the American people that they were commuting the sentences of “nearly 2,500 people convicted of non-violent drug offenses. . .”
ADAG Brad Weinsheimer told the Biden Admin the President was lying.
Weinsheimer flagged over a half-dozen Jan. 17, 2025 clemency recipients that have violent histories. These inmates killed cops, murdered witnesses and their kids, shot informants, hired hitmen, and were gang members.
All of these people have been released from federal prison.
We are announcing an investigation into which inmates received clemency under the “highly problematic” warrant and remain in federal custody.
The Trump Admin should hold these people in prison and re-arrest those released while the autopen investigations continue.
President Trump has declared the autopen pardons void since March 17, 2025.
Despite an EO and announcement of an investigation by WH Counsel, no action has been taken.
Thanks to the transparency of @EagleEdMartin, the Trump Admin can break the autopen scandal wide open.
