@dever those five signatures are a perfect match, it's almost certainly a stamp. It's entirely possible that the signature in the address letter is the real one.

@Inginsub @dever presidents used to use a special machine that physically generates a pen signature using a pen tip and programmed motion but I can’t remember what they are called

>In May 2024, Joe Biden directed an autopen be used to sign legislation providing a one-week funding extension for the Federal Aviation Administration. Biden was traveling in San Francisco at the time, and wished to avoid any lapse in FAA operations, while a five-year funding bill was being voted on by Congress.
there's one known sample, someone can probably find this bill and compare the signatures (I gave up after approximately 3 minutes)

@Inginsub @dever I don’t totally understand why fake signatures are allowed ever

@icst @sun @dever if the autopen signature matches any other, not explicitly authorized by biden, that’s positive proof that other people are making decisions. then again, it’s not like we need proof, it’s been (or should’ve been) common sense for three and a half years

@sun @Inginsub @dever because the president doesn't really control the executive branch anymore and is essentially just a figure head for a system of unaccountable psychopath beurocrats.
