Former US President Donald Trump has declared he will cancel executive orders and other documents from the Biden administration that were not physically signed by President Biden himself. Trump made the statement on his social media platform, referring to his political rival as "Crooked Joe Biden."
The declaration specifically targets documents signed using an "autopen." This is a machine that automatically signs a leader's signature. US law and past court rulings have generally upheld the legal validity of documents signed by autopen.
This action would represent a significant break from established presidential practice. If implemented, it could create legal uncertainty and challenge the legitimacy of numerous official acts from the current administration.
