Biden’s deepfake dodge to keep Hur interview secret reveals his war on truth<\/a><\/h1>\n

On Thursday, a Manhattan jury convicted Donald Trump of 34 felonies<\/a> after prosecutors hustled a harebrained legal theory that claimed the former president had \u201choodwinked\u201d voters in the 2016 election.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the Department of Justice told a federal judge that accurate, authentic audiotapes of President Biden\u2019s interview with special counsel Robert Hur should not be released because someone might hoodwink voters with manipulated deepfake versions<\/a> created by artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n

But citizens were already hoodwinked when Biden proclaimed in a White House press conference<\/a> that Hur\u2019s report showed he hadn\u2019t violated federal law.<\/p>\n

Hur recommended not filing charges<\/a> against Biden because jurors would view him as simply an \u201celderly man with a poor memory.\u201d<\/p>\n

White House officials vehemently denied that conclusion. They claimed Biden had done a good job in the Hur interview \u2014 until the transcript was released, showing a president often lost in his own mental weeds.<\/p>\n

The White House now asserts the president has \u201cexecutive privilege\u201d to refuse to release <\/a>the audio file of his Hur interview, despite congressional subpoenas.<\/p>\n

The DOJ admitted last week that redactions or other changes<\/a> were made to the interview transcript it publicly released.<\/p>\n

But Team Biden claims it is entitled to boundless deference while maintaining that the administration\u2019s modifications did not modify the truth.<\/p>\n

Does the White House fear that hooligans will insert \u201cpause\u201d and \u201cend of quote\u201d into audio clips of the Hur interview? Too late \u2014 Biden already committed those blunders<\/a> in his own speeches when he slipped into his Teleprompter Zombie mode.<\/p>\n

Team Biden offered a damn near demented Catch-22 to justify its perpetual coverups of presidential crime sprees.<\/strong> Releasing the Biden audio file would be \u201cexceedingly harmful\u201d because Biden is an \u201cuncharged individual,\u201d the DOJ declared.<\/p>\n

And who decides whether Biden is charged? The DOJ. So as long as Biden isn\u2019t indicted, his Justice Department can refuse to disclose evidence of his guilt.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The specter of AI-assisted deepfakes is simply the latest pretext to drop an iron curtain around the Biden White House \u2014 at least until Election Day, or until the swing states finish counting enough un-postmarked late ballots to assure a Biden victory.<\/p>\n

According to Team Biden, the DOJ must be allowed to selectively censor in the name of truth.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s in essence the same argument it secretly made to social-media companies during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the platforms were forced to suppress admittedly true postings by Americans that might spur \u201cvaccine hesitancy.\u201d Does the same standard now apply for \u201cre-election hesitancy\u201d?<\/p>\n

Prosecutor Alvin Bragg proclaimed that Trump was guilty of taking steps with \u201cthe end of keeping information away from the electorate.\u201d But the same pretext is tacitly invoked by the DOJ to pretend that modifications to Biden\u2019s voice could mislead the public. Perhaps the White House believes it deserves a monopoly on exploiting Biden\u2019s words to deceive Americans.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The worse that Biden mentally falters, the more rights Americans seem to lose \u2014 especially freedom of speech and press.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Team Biden is effectively proclaiming a perpetual national emergency to suppress anything that would make citizens doubt the competence of the commander-in-chief.<\/p>\n

A deepfake veto on government disclosures is especially perilous when Democratic prosecutors are targeting Republicans like Trump for alleged falsehoods. Americans are justifiably appalled at brazen lies from Trump and other politicians. But to permit the ruling party to selectively punish the supposed dishonesty of their political opponents while absolving their own deceits will destroy any semblance of democracy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Supreme Court will soon pass judgment on the Ministry of Truth that the Biden administration helped erect to censor Americans\u2019 opinions on COVID, elections, Biden\u2019s Afghanistan withdrawal and other topics. But any ruling the court delivers may not be enough to stop the official whitewash of Joe Biden for the 2024 election.<\/p>\n

Who knew that Biden\u2019s presidency could be epitomized by his lawyers effectively screaming, Jack-Nicholson-style, at the American people: \u201cYou can\u2019t handle the truth!\u201d Citizens should be wary of statements from any politician with or without high-tech manipulation. But the most dangerous deepfakes will likely emerge from the Oval Office.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
