Rep. Burchett: Biden Staffers Used Autopen to Sell Pardons
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 21, 2025 | Cassandra MacDonald

An autopen is a device that mechanically reproduces signatures.

On Tuesday, Rep. Burchett appeared on “The Benny Johnson Show” and stated, “You are gonna find staffers that were able to take forms, get them and run them through some sort of bogus legal system, then they auto-penned them.”

Burchett said he believes there was a pay-for-pardon scheme happening, and pointed to a historical scandal involving former Tennessee Governor Ray Blanton, who was implicated in selling pardons in the 1970s.

“Tennessee has had a history of this; we had a governor … he sold pardons,” Burchett said. “You can look it up. His name is Ray Blanton. It made national news.”

Like selling indulgences.

But how many Democrats are going to be protesting their party’s actions? Will there be a schism, or will the Holy Church of the Left refuse to divide against itself?

“...refuse to divide against itself...”

Seems all but certain.

Yes, but if the signature was in cursive, the whole accusation is racist.

When the coin in the coffer rings, a soul from jail springs.

If true, this is the ticket for invalidating the pardons, as well as charging more scoundrels.

I’m monitoring Fox news to see if she announces there will be an “investigation” in her perky and exuberant manner.

At least when Tetzel was selling indulgences, some of the money was going for the construction of St. Peter’s basilica in the Vatican. When Biden or his staffers sell pardons, it’s just to enrich themselves.

Disregard and ignore all auto-pen pardons and begin arrests now. Today.

Maybe I am getting jaded, but democrats are so evil—that nothing they have done even surprises me anymore.

“some sort of bogus legal system”

We might need a little more details on that.
