Biden’s Autopen Just Got Dirtier — Rep. Burchett Exposes the Pay-for-Pardon Scheme (Here Are the Details)

May 20, 2025

Washington, D.C. – In a video that’s sent shockwaves through Capitol Hill, Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) suggested a sinister twist to the already controversial use of the autopen by President Joe Biden’s administration, hinting at a “cash for clemency” scheme. The footage, viewed over 1.9 million times, has conservatives on X calling it “the scandal we knew was coming”: “Burchett’s onto something—Biden’s team was selling pardons!”

The clip, from “The Benny Johnson Show,” shows Burchett with a serious expression, stating, “You are gonna find staffers that were able to take forms, get them and run them through some sort of bogus legal system, then they auto-penned them.” The backdrop of his office, with its wooden desk and American flag, frames the gravity, with “BENNY SHOW” in the corner, per bennyjohnson.com. Burchett’s remarks suggest a pay-for-pardon scheme, echoing historical scandals like Tennessee Governor Ray Blanton’s 1970s pardon-selling, which made national news, per tnhistoryforkids.org. The controversy over Biden’s pardons, including those for January 6 committee members, has been part of a broader narrative about his administration’s transparency, especially after his May 18 diagnosis of advanced prostate cancer, raising questions about his capacity to lead.
