Fox News Host Calls Out Double Standard of Biden Autopen Backlash After Trump Admits to Not Knowing Billionaire He Pardoned
"If we care about Biden's autopen scandal on pardons and commutations (we should), shouldn't this answer from POTUS on this set of facts draw scrutiny and concern? Oversight shouldn't be selectively partisan and reflexively tribal, by either side.

"Zhao pleaded guilty in 2023 to failing to sufficiently combat money laundering on his crypto exchange. He was sentenced to four months in prison. When pressed about the pardon on the most recent episode of 60 Minutes, Trump claimed he actually had no clue who Zhao was. Okay, are you ready? Trump said. I don't know who he is. I know he got a four-month sentence or something like that. And I heard it was a Biden witch hunt."
President Donald Trump acknowledged pardoning Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao while saying he did not know who Zhao was. Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty in 2023 to failing to sufficiently combat money laundering on his crypto exchange and was sentenced to four months in prison. Fox News host Guy Benson urged greater scrutiny of Trump's pardon admission and invoked concerns about President Joe Biden's autopen use for pardons and commutations. Benson emphasized that oversight should not be selectively partisan or reflexively tribal. Zhao's company helped facilitate a $2 billion purchase of a Trump crypto venture, as noted by CBS.
