Biden’s Autopen Pardons: A New Low for Presidential Accountability

Americans woke up in 2025 to a revelation that would be laughable if it weren’t so infuriating: Joe Biden, the so-called “leader of the free world,” told the New York Times he had to use an autopen to sign pardons simply because he granted too many to keep up by hand. Let that sink in. Not only did the president offload his most solemn constitutional duty—deciding who deserves clemency—onto a machine, but he also did it at a time when his own son, Hunter Biden, was facing the music for a federal gun crime. It’s almost poetic, if your definition of poetry is a Kafkaesque government run amok. This is the same administration that claimed “no one is above the law,” yet they used every trick in the book to protect their own while the rest of us followed the rules, paid our taxes, and watched our borders collapse.

For those keeping score at home, Biden’s use of the autopen isn’t just bureaucratic laziness—it’s a slap in the face to the American people. The pardon power isn’t some rubber stamp to be wielded by a machine; it’s a constitutional responsibility, meant to be exercised with care, judgment, and, dare we say, a little humility. But humility was never in style at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue when the Biden family’s interests were at stake. The message was clear: If you’re part of the political elite, there’s always a shortcut—preferably one that doesn’t involve accountability or a steady hand.

The Hunter Biden Laptop: From “Russian Disinformation” to Federal Evidence

The Hunter Biden laptop saga is a case study in media malfeasance and government gaslighting. When the New York Post initially broke the story in October 2020, the laptop’s contents—emails, business records, and personal videos—were dismissed by 51 former intelligence officials as having “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” Big Tech followed suit, with Twitter and Facebook locking accounts and blocking the story’s distribution. The American people were told it was fake, dangerous, and not worth their time. Yet, four years later, the FBI confirmed in federal court that the laptop was real, belonged to Hunter, and contained evidence used in his own felony gun trial.

The media and tech giants, who claim to be stewards of truth and democracy, played judge, jury, and executioner over what information Americans could see before an election. They censored a legitimate news story, manipulated public perception, and then—when the facts became undeniable—shrugged and moved on, leaving trust in shambles. For a country that prides itself on the First Amendment, the Hunter laptop episode exposed how quickly our “guardians of democracy” become censors when the truth threatens their chosen candidate.

Double Standards, Selective Justice, and the Erosion of Common Sense

The Hunter Biden pardon is the cherry on top of a years-long pattern: rules for thee, not for me. While everyday Americans watched loved ones prosecuted for gun crimes or minor infractions, Hunter’s felony gun charge vanished with the flick of an autopen. The same justice system that throws the book at regular folks bent over backward to accommodate the president’s son. Legal experts and media analysts have pointed out the obvious double standard, but don’t expect apologies from the crowd that insisted “no evidence” pointed to wrongdoing by Joe Biden—even as emails and court testimony confirmed the laptop’s authenticity.

Worse, the episode has set a dangerous precedent for executive overreach and media manipulation. The next time you hear politicians or tech moguls talking about “safeguarding democracy,” remember how they handled the Hunter Biden laptop—first by denying, then by suppressing, and finally by admitting what everyone with common sense already knew. The people who claim to protect us from “disinformation” are often the ones peddling it, and the cost is nothing short of our faith in American institutions.
