Oversight Project Executive Director Mike Howell told Blaze News, "The main legal question here is who was the president over the last four years. That's what we are aiming to uncover. The prolific use of autopen by the Biden White House was an instrument to hide the truth from the American people as to who was running the government."

The watchdog group noted that "every document" they could find with Biden's signature — with the exception of the announcement indicating that he was dropping out of the 2024 presidential race — "used the same autopen signature."

The Oversight Project noted, for instance, that the repeatedly used autopen signature appeared on the pardons for a murderer and five other criminals that were issued while Biden was vacationing and golfing in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The pardons all reportedly indicated that they were signed "at the City of Washington."

This discovery, coupled with the former president's alleged admission to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) that he did not remember signing a January 2024 order to pause decisions on exports of liquefied natural gas, prompted the Oversight Project to once again cast doubt on whether Biden was ever calling the shots and to suggest that "WHOEVER CONTROLLED THE AUTOPEN CONTROLLED THE PRESIDENCY."

Critics, enraged by yet another indication that unelected ideologues may have secretly controlled the executive branch for the past four years, are now questioning the legitimacy of the documents bearing the autopen signature.

Lindy Li, a former Democratic strategist and fundraiser who served as a surrogate for failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris and worked for the 2020 Biden campaign, recently shed some light on potential members of that supposed committee. Li told podcaster Shawn Ryan last month that Hunter Biden, Jill Biden, and a handful of other unelected senior advisers effectively served as a combined shadow president.

Missouri Attorney General Bailey suggested that a number of pardons Biden supposedly signed were suspicious, including the unconditional 10-year pardon Biden supposedly gave his son after repeatedly vowing he would not do so and just months after declaring without qualification, "No one is above the law."

"It is black-letter law that a document is void, ab initio, when the person signing it lacks mental capacity," wrote Bailey. "Staffers and the Vice President cannot constitutionally evade accountability by laundering far-left orders through a man who does not know what he is signing. If in fact this has been occurring, then all those orders are void."

"There is a constitutional process to deal with an incapacitated POTUS and it doesn't contemplate giving someone else his autopen and authority," tweeted Howell. "It's called the 25th Amendment and the conspiracy not to invoke it in order to keep whatever they were doing going is a big problem."
