  • A post shared on Facebook allegedly shows President Joe Biden singing the children’s song Baby Shark during a recent public event. Verdict: False The video is digitally altered. The original video shows Biden delivering an Oct. 14 speech at Irvine Valley Community College in California on lowering the cost of prescription drugs. Fact Check: Biden told oil companies they should use record-breaking profits to increase production and refining in a set of remarks Oct. 19, CNBC reported. The president also warned Republicans would cause chaos in the economy should they make solid gains in the 2022 midterms, Reuters reported. The Facebook post, which includes a link to the video on YouTube, appears to show Biden singing Baby Shark during a recent public event. In the video, Biden stands on stage and prepares the crowd to hear the U.S. national anthem before he begins singing the popular children’s song. An on-screen chyron reads, Biden: Price Of Chargers Drops Due To Mining. Next to the chyron is a logo in the shape of an onion. The video is digitally altered. A subsequent keyword search reveals the video originates via TikTok. The video’s creator, SyntheticVoices, shared that the video is a deepfake in a comment thread on the same post.
