The top artificial intelligence authority from the Trump administration stated on Tuesday that he has identified a Democratic U.S. senator who allegedly \u201ccontrolled\u201d the White House\u2019s use of the autopen, which is now at the center of a growing scandal involving former President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
David Sacks, who serves as President Donald Trump\u2019s AI advisor, told Fox News host Jesse Watters that he believes his investigation will reveal that one of the Senate\u2019s most progressive voices is responsible for applying Biden\u2019s artificial signature to numerous executive orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump has said he believes these orders should be invalidated as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cElizabeth Warren controlled the autopen during that administration,\u201d said the Trump advisor, adding that the Massachusetts senator has a \u201cpathological hatred of the crypto community\u201d and wanted to \u201cdrive this community offshore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The two were discussing the future of cryptocurrency in the wake of President Donald Trump\u2019s launch of a new token tied to his business ventures. On Friday, Trump hosted a lavish dinner at Mar-a-Lago attended by dozens of high-net-worth individuals who have made significant investments in the token.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sacks did not explain why he believes Senator Warren was behind the widespread use of Biden\u2019s autopen\u2014a device that produces facsimile signatures for busy officials, including governors and heads of state. Traditionally, autopens have been reserved for less urgent documents, such as resolutions or presidential proclamations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, among Biden\u2019s final acts in office were pardons granted to members of the contentious January 6 select committee, including former Congresswoman Liz Cheney. Trump has challenged the validity of these pardons, alleging that they were signed using an autopen rather than by hand, and perhaps without Biden\u2019s knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCrooked Joe Biden got us into a real mess with Russia and everything else he did, frankly. But he didn\u2019t know about it and he, generally speaking, signed it with autopen, so how would he know that autopen is a big deal,\u201d Trump said in a speech at the Department of Justice on Friday, the Daily Mail<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhen my people come up\u201d to have him sign an executive order, Trump said \u201cyou don\u2019t use autopen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNumber one \u2013 it\u2019s disrespectful to the office,\u201d he claimed. \u201cNumber two \u2013 maybe it\u2019s not even valid because who\u2019s getting him to sign? He had no idea what the hell he was doing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The extensive use of Biden\u2019s autopen was uncovered by the Oversight Project, a division of the conservative Heritage Foundation. The group has submitted public records requests aiming to expose attempts to conceal Biden\u2019s mental health decline during his final year in office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWHOEVER CONTROLLED THE AUTOPEN CONTROLLED THE PRESIDENCY,\u201d the group wrote on X last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe gathered every document we could find with Biden\u2019s signature over the course of his presidency. All used the same autopen signature except for the announcement that the former President was dropping out of the race last year,\u201d the group added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-KY) announced last week that he has sent requests for testimony to dozens of former Biden staffers and confidants. If they don\u2019t comply, he warned, they could face subpoenas very soon compelling them to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf we don\u2019t hear anything from them in a week, then I would expect to start seeing subpoenas,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
