Birdwatch Note
2025-03-21 17:34:04 UTC - NOT_MISLEADING
Existing note misses the point. The problem with Autopen isn't that it was used. The problem (and claim) is that Autopen could allow persons other than the President to sign his name to documents, including pardons. That would absolutely make such pardons fraudulent and invalid.

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1901496605582180550
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
