President Donald Trump has called for arrests of Biden administration officials tied to the abuse of the autopen under President Joe Biden. In a post on Truth Social Saturday afternoon, Trump declared that the practice was “totally illegal” and any signature produced through it is “of ‘no further force or effect.'”

The president alleged that the individual who operated the autopen had no knowledge of whether President Biden approved the actions, and described the act as an “absolutely illegal” operation perpetrated by “Radical Left Insurrectionists” who he claimed unlawfully ran the Biden administration.

Trump concluded his remarks with a demand for arrests: “Every one of them should be arrested for what they have done to our Country.” He added that the situation was “RIGGED” and that there must be “a price to pay, and it has got to be a BIG ONE!”
