Most likely the deep state that authorized the installation of Biden as figurehead president also authorized her to use the autopen.

Appears the door of the hearing were not closed very tightly if the Examiner published the information from the hearing.

Authorized?
She could have asked any fifth grader who’s in charge and who can authorize such a thing.
Any fifth grader from 1970 that is

No need to listen in. This is her excuse even when she was doing this

What did she(and the others) sign?
Did Joe know what was being signed?
Were any of the signed docs significant in history?

“Here are the top takeaways from the first of many closed-door interviews.

”Comer told the Washington Examiner that no interview transcripts will be released before all of them have concluded.”

She basically told the press “No comment.” So where did the information about her interview come from?

it is very disappointing that this is not a full public hearing because iti is essentially about a Democrat coup.

However, Tanden noted that she stopped overseeing autopen use after May 2023, when she became head of the Domestic Policy Council.

Pointless witness thrown in for distraction.

His committee can’t get anything done in open committee hearings

He has the loudest, most obnoxious people in the House on it, all trying to get their soundbites

You guys need to straighten out what we are talking about here. This story keeps popping up, but it’s Gateway Pundit or Washington Examiner level clickbait until we know:

Is being “authorized to use the autopen” more like being “authorized to lick envelopes” or “authorized to act as President”?

If officials are allowed to use autopens for signature (as all of them are), then it follows that drones in their offices must be “authorized to push the start button”.

It’s really important to find out if laws, executive orders, and pardons were done by people other than Biden (which I am almost sure is true). But all this woman “confessed” to was signing documents with an autopen as part of her job, working for Biden, and she had no reason to believe that the documents were not official acts of the lawful President.

In oter words - nothingburger clickbait.

Apparently there will be more people called to testify, & one has to assume that documentation of Biden’s authorization for individual pardons will be required. This is just the beginning of the hearings.

She said it, but we know they love to lie. Can she prove it? Guilty until innocent for anyone from that crime gang.

"In response, Biden has pushed back on GOP criticism of his presidency, saying in a written statement that he “was the one who made the decisions”..."

LOL - and who wrote the written statement?

My dad, may he rest in peace, suffered from dementia that became very acute in his final years. I'd visit and ask him if he'd taken his meds that day. He would always say 'Well, yes!'

You can't rely on the words of people in steep mental decline. They may not be lying, they may even think they're telling the truth. But it can't be taken as truth.

Nothing will happen to her. She walks away with a large treasure chest full-on cash hidden somewhere.
