Dean Phillips
Democratic challenger US Rep. Dean Phillips listens to a question during a January 20, 2024, campaign rally in Nashua, New Hampshire.
  • A magician with world records in both fork-bending and straightjacket escaping made a confession.
  • He said he was paid $150 to make fake audio of Biden that was sent to New Hampshire voters.
  • He said he made the imitation without knowing the buyer's intended use for it.

On Friday, a New Orleans-based magician said he's responsible for manufacturing the computer-generated replication of President Joe Biden's voice that some voters in New Hampshire reported receiving in January telling them not to vote in the Democratic state primary.
