Double Standard of Biden Autopen Backlash After Trump Admits to Not Knowing Billionaire He Pardoned

Fox News host Guy Benson called for President Donald Trump to receive more scrutiny for admitting to pardoning a man he didn’t even know on Monday.

Last month, Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao — commonly referred to as “CZ” — received a pardon from the Trump administration. 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.
