Quick Glance: Trump Challenges Biden's Pardons as Invalid
  • President Trump questioned the legitimacy of Biden's preemptive pardons for Jan. 6 committee members, citing their use of an autopen for signatures.

  • Legal experts believe Trump's reasoning lacks merit and that a court would likely not permit a president to revoke a predecessor's pardons.

  • Trump alleged on social media that committee members were accountable for the pardons without Biden's consent.

  • Legal analysts caution that pursuing legal action against individuals who have been pardoned could lead to substantial costs and stress, regardless of the outcomes in court.
