And by extension, setting precedent on repealing laws based on procedural nitpicks rather than substance, meaning a LOT more laws might be up for debate.
You start with the result you want and work backwards:
C. Everything Biden did should be undone.
B. Biden did something frequently
A. Say any use of innocuous thing is invalidated
You see it a lot online, when people say X is true because of Y. But if they admit Y is flawed, that doesn't change their mind about X. They'll just invent a new reason.
Artistically, it's pretty bold. It's got rhythm, it's dynamic, it's insistent in its method. It's just that its legibility is worse than that of a Russian doctor's cursive writing, which for me is a visual companion to James ‘Blood’ Ulmer's ‘Timeless’. This is however fine for a death metal band logo — would work even better for grindcore.
On the bright side, banning the auto pen means he would have to sign hundreds of pardons by hand if he needed to, and I think he's just too lazy to do that.
I find it stupid the guy who signs pardons for bitcoin billionaires he never heard of is accusing somebody of autopenning pardons. OVER TURKEY PARDONS.
He was absolutely making a joke. The problem is he's the one person that cannot land it. Its like if trump said "sounds like this guy tried to fuck a child beauty queen".
I assume you know, but Jimmy Pesto's original voice actor was fired and (too briefly) imprisoned for Jan 6. He's literally one of the traitorous turkeys Trump pardoned.
Right? What else could he possibly be celebrating with that but death? "Oh, these turkeys will not escape ME!" Uh, good for you, you Machiavellian shit stain.
Turkeys are such smart and beautiful creatures. They are so charismatic and loyal, too. Being called a turkey is the highest honor. They are also really fun at parties and very helpful and kind and wise.
Why is this news? Stop clogging up Lemmy with this bullshit distraction from the Epstein files. Who the hell is upvoting this non-story? I'm reporting this post.

Are you SURE you want to do this, Donald?

Turkey pardons, where every year the President saves two turkeys from being killed and eaten. These do not open the door to anything.

Who's to say trump doesn't declair Biden as his family a bunch of jive busta turkeys?
You can't keep thinking in the old ways where things need to be legal or make sense for the GOP to blindly follow.

If Biden didn't say "No take backs", then pardons can definitely be canceled. That's what SCOTUS told me.

He also got caught auto penning executive orders and they quickly took them back and had someone sign them so they weren't all identical.
reptar@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 271d
I thought it was identical signatures. As in, not an autopen, but digital copy.
Madison420@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 271d
If an autopen is disqualifying e signatures certainly are since you do not even need the fairly complex and large autopen.
https://www.npr.org/2025/03/17/nx-s1-5330709/autopen-biden-pardon-void
Pardons don't even need to be signed, executive orders however do and even then their legal basis is very iffy.
