A video circulating on social media claims to show President Joe Biden delivering a profanity-laden Oval Office address after dropping out of the presidential race. However, the video is altered and fabricated. It was originally posted by an account that regularly shares memes and doctored content. The audio in the video does not match Biden’s mouth movements, indicating it has been manipulated. The video actually originates from Biden’s genuine Oval Office address on July 14, where he called for unity in politics following an assassination attempt on then-President Donald Trump. The video also includes a PBS News watermark, with the network confirming it as a deepfake and unauthorized use of their footage. USA TODAY debunked false claims related to Biden in the past, including rumors of his resignation and health condition. While some social media users shared the video, they did not respond to inquiries. AFP also debunked the claim. It is essential to be wary of fake videos and doctored content circulating on social media platforms.
