President Donald Trump launched a late-night meltdown on his social media platform Monday in which he promoted a conspiracy theory about former first lady Michelle Obama signing presidential pardons on behalf of Joe Biden.

The president turned up the dial on his typical Truth Social posting spree, making more than 160 posts and sharing them from 7 p.m. to almost midnight on the East Coast.

Among them, the president promoted a clip of far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who raised the “WILD” claim about Obama and Biden from Bed, Bath and Beyond founder Patrick Byrne.

Byrne, a well-known conspiracy monger, claimed on a recent episode of Jones’ show that Obama used Biden’s “automatic opening” (the alleged use of which Trump has turned into a frequent attack on his predecessor) to grant four to five pardons.

“And then you’d love to see, who knows if they charged a million dollars a pair, who knows how, that’s so illegal! That’s so illegal!” he said in the clip.

Biden has previously dismissed rumors about his “automatic openness,” telling media in June that he made decisions on pardons, executive orders, legislation and proclamations during his administration.

“Any suggestion that I did not do so is ridiculous and false,” Biden said in a statement.

Social Truth

Outside of Biden’s theory, Trump attacked former Attorney General Eric Holder, referred to Democratic veterans who urged troops to defy illegal orders as “a threat to the United States,” accused Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) of crimes against the country, and promoted a post calling Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) a “terrorist from a terrorist family.”

In one post, he shared an apparently AI-generated video showing Elon Musk mentioning Trump’s promise to “immediately” remove temporary legal protections for Somali immigrants living in Minnesota.

The release comes as Trump’s Treasury Department seeks to investigate allegations that money stolen from taxpayers in Minnesota has been funneled to a Somali terrorist group. There is little evidence to support that claim, according to The Minnesota Star Tribune.

Elsewhere in his posting spree, Trump pushed other conspiracy theories, including one that Joe Biden’s former White House chief of staff Jeff Zients, as well as Hunter Biden, were the “SECRET FORGIVENESS MASTERS” in the administration.
