Unfortunately, the reporting about his is very lousy! The Heritage Foundation only released a X/Twitter post on this! Exact numbers and what kind of documents were signed by autopen are vague.
The referenced Heritage Foundation Oversight Project website is totally outdated and does not provide any further information on this.
However, I would not be surprised if many important official documents of the administration of the 46th President were indeed signed by Autopen to an extent far exceeding previous administrations.
"... "Wouldn't it be great if those … last-minute pardons are not legally binding? That would be very appropriate." ..."
