The claim that Biden used a fake Oval Office for presidential addresses is contradicted by fact-checkers.
A guest makes this claim. Listeners heard it, so it counts against the post, and on the guest's own record.
What was said
… It was because they knew that he would be exposed as, you know, lacking the mental acuity necessary to run the country. He was the auto pen president. Final 30 seconds on that, Jeffrey Clark, Oversight Project. Yeah, exactly, Andrew. Look, uh, for gosh sakes, he had a fake Oval Office he was doing addresses from, and I still haven't heard, you know, a satisfactory answer to that.

The Charlie Kirk Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. Snopes and PolitiFact reviewed the July 24, 2024 Biden address and found it was given from the real Oval Office; the claim that it was a fake set or CGI was rejected.[1][2][4]
Contradicts. Lead Stories found the 'fake Oval Office' is a set in the South Court Auditorium of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, not a hidden room, and rejected the claim that it was used to hide Biden's incapacity.[3][5]
Context. The Eisenhower Building set was used for televised events such as Biden's COVID booster shot, a global summit, and a business roundtable, and aides reportedly preferred it for events because of its teleprompter, not for addresses.[6][7][8][10]
Context. Coverage of the set is consistent that it was used by multiple presidents, including Trump, and was built to accommodate broadcasts, not to fake presidential speeches.[3][8][9]
