The group included Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who has since endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2025 election.
Other notable recipients of Biden’s pardons included General Mark Milley, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Trump responded forcefully to Biden’s autopen signed pardons, declaring them void in a post on his Truth Social platform early Monday morning.
Autopen Signed Pardons: Did Joe Know?
“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump wrote.
“In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” he continued, referencing ongoing concerns about Biden’s cognitive abilities.
Trump also warned that members of the former January 6th House select committee who received pardons would be “subject to investigation at the highest level.”
