Axios tends to lean Left, but even they admitted this:

A top aide to former President Joe Biden told the House Oversight Committee on Thursday that another staffer using his email credentials had approved some of the most controversial “autopen” pardons.

Zients also testified that first son Hunter Biden, who received a pardon himself, participated in pardon discussions, while also describing the former president’s mental state in unflattering terms.

According to Axios, Zients — one of the highest-ranking officials in the Biden White House — confirmed that Joe Biden often struggled to recall dates and names and frequently needed additional briefings before making decisions in the final years of his presidency.

johnny, you already posted this pointless autopen distraction back in July. If you don't think presidents should have an autopen, just say so.

Why are you so desperate to distract from what Trump is doing? You could instead start a thread about any of the dozens of Trump's unConstitutional power grabs and corruption that he's committing.

Or are you simply concerned about how Trump's henchmen might abuse the autopen? If so, why not just come out and say it.
