White House Admits to Altering Biden Testimony Transcript Amid Deepfake Concerns in Classified Documents Case

Jun 1, 2024, 06:26 PM

The White House has admitted in federal court that it altered the transcript of President Joe Biden's testimony to Special Counsel Robert Hur in order to make him appear less incompetent. This admission came after the Biden administration was forced into court by the Oversight Project and Judicial Watch's FOIA lawsuit. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has also refused to release the audio recordings of Biden's interview in the classified documents investigation, citing concerns that AI tampering could lead to deepfake manipulations. The DOJ's stance has raised significant concerns about transparency and the integrity of the judicial process.
