On Monday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt navigated President Donald Trump's assertion that pardons issued by Joe Biden are null and void. Trump claimed these pardons, purportedly signed using an autopen, lack validity and implied that Biden's ignorance on the matter made them illegal. Leavitt hinted at the complexity of this issue, stating the former president may be 'begging the question' regarding his authority to reverse such pardons. This exchange critiques the ongoing tensions surrounding Biden administration policies and Trump's relentless focus on past grievances.
The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.
I think a lot of journalists in this room should be asking, about whether or not the former president of the United States can undo a pardon.
