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.” pic.twitter.com/znfjMqTOUI

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. pic.twitter.com/vqtZBCK2j8

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. pic.twitter.com/kAjDwuvtrX

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. pic.twitter.com/00iEcICzJ2
