Remember Joe Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur?
This is the interview where Robert Hur refused to indict Biden, but revealed that has severe memory issues.
For example, Biden appeared to be confused about when he served as Vice President.
He appeared to be confused about the details surrounding his son’s death.
And he had many other stumbles, fumbles, and memory lapses.
Hur refused to indict Biden because he was a “well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.”
Well, the White House is refusing to release the audio of Joe Biden’s interview.
Why?
Because they are afraid it will result in deep fakes of Joe Biden.
Wait… what?!
You mean, the man who has been sitting in the White House for the last 4 years?
The man who has served as Vice President for 8 years?
The man who has been in Washington D.C. for, um… decades!
There’s plenty of material to create a deep fake of Joe Biden, yet his administration is afraid that this recording with Special Counsel Hur will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back?
How clueless do they think the American people are?
What are they covering up?
What did Joe Biden say (or mess up so badly) that the interview is now classified at the highest level?
Folks, there are PLENTY of Joe Biden deep fakes.
This is nothing new.
And there’s already plenty of footage, audio recording, and photos to pull from.
A single interview isn’t going to suddenly result in deep fakes.
There can only be one conclusion: What happened in the interview that is so bad that it now has to be classified?
The Hill confirms:
The Department of Justice (DOJ) pushed back against the release of audio recordings of President Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur, citing concerns that “deep fakes” could emerge.
DOJ argued, in a Friday night filing, that if the audio were released, it could end up being altered and passed off as an “authentic” recording which would be shared widely.
“The passage of time and advancements in audio, artificial intelligence, and ‘deep fake’ technologies only amplify concerns about malicious manipulation of audio files,” according to the filing, first obtained by Politico.
“To be sure, other raw material to create a deepfake of President Biden’s voice is already available, but release of the audio recording presents unique risks: if it were public knowledge that the audio recording has been released, it becomes easier for malicious actors to pass off an altered file as the true recording,” the administration added in the 49-page filing.
DOJ officials also said the release of the audio “would harm substantial privacy interests.”
The logic doesn’t line up.
Based on this logic, they could argue that Joe Biden needs to hide in a basement (hint, hint).
Yet we all know that the opposite is true.
We all know that if it were President Trump who was under investigation, the recording would have been released.
And if the recording wasn’t officially released, it would have almost certainly been “leaked” to the press or on social media.
The double standard is undeniable!
Where are Republican officials pushing back on this?
Where are the subpoenas?
Where’s the oversight and accountability?
The National Review has more details on this case:
The Justice Department is using the Biden administration’s invocation of executive privilege to fight a lawsuit by multiple parties that seek to gain access to the audio from President Joe Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur.
Executive privilege is one of the exemptions the Justice Department cited in a motion on Friday to combat a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit by conservative groups and numerous media organizations over the audio recordings of Biden’s interview with Hur during the special counsel’s investigation into whether Biden had mishandled classified documents.
In a motion for summary judgment filed on Friday, the Justice Department argued: “The recording facially comes within the scope of executive privilege, which is recognized in civil litigation. The audio recording therefore is properly withheld pursuant to Exemption 5, which exempts records that are ‘inter-agency or intraagency memorandums or letters that would not be available by law to a party other than an agency in litigation with the agency.’” The court documents were first reported by Politico.
The Justice Department also warned that artificial intelligence and deepfake recordings could be used to manipulate the audio:
“The passage of time and advancements in audio, artificial intelligence, and ‘deep fake’ technologies only amplify concerns about malicious manipulation of audio files. If the audio recording is released here, it is easy to foresee that it could be improperly altered, and that the altered file could be passed off as an authentic recording and widely distributed.”
Additionally, the Justice Department suggested that the audio was unnecessary because the Biden–Hur transcripts have already been made public and releasing the audio could make it more difficult to gain cooperation from witnesses in future investigations.
Ummm… if the transcripts have already been released, then what’s the concern?
Any deep fakes can be fact checked against the transcripts.
Unless, of course, the transcripts have “conveniently” omitted anything that may reveal the truth about Joe Biden’s cognitive state.
So what do you think?
Do you buy into this official reasoning?
Or is there a corrupt effort here to cover up for Joe Biden?
