Overview

• Trump’s Truth Social account posted the deepfake Saturday and removed it roughly 12 hours later, according to multiple outlets.
• The clip mimicked a Fox News program with AI likenesses of Lara Trump and the president promising a nationwide “medbed card” and new “medbed hospitals.”
• Medical experts publicly dismissed the claims as false, noting there is no scientific evidence that such technology exists.
• Preserved copies continue to circulate as reporters trace early uploads to fringe or now-deleted Instagram and crypto-themed accounts, with the precise origin still unclear.
• The incident amplifies a QAnon-linked conspiracy that has spawned dubious commercial pitches, including products previously flagged by the FDA such as Tesla BioHealing devices.
