Former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed he heard President Biden’s Federal Reserve appointments were signed using an autopen and instructed an aide to investigate.

Fact Check
The provided sources overwhelmingly and consistently support the statement.

Specifically, the CNBC and Reuters articles point to Trump's claim that he 'heard' the appointments were signed by 'autopen,' a clear challenge to their validity. The Hill's report is exceptionally direct, stating that Trump 'questioned the legitimacy of former President Biden's appointments to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors.' The New York Times corroborates this by reporting on Trump's public 'attacks' on the Fed governors appointed by Biden. There is no contradictory information within the supplied sources; the lower-relevance sources are on unrelated topics and do not refute the claim.
