Claim: The current U.S. president is Sabrina Wallace
Verdict: False

A post on the social media platform Facebook claims that the 46th president of the United States is officially someone named Sabrina Wallace, instead of Joe Biden. As ‘proof’, it presents a career overview of her presidency from a page on a website that appears to be an online encyclopedia called The Road of Time Wiki.

Faktoje confirmed that the page in question actually exists online. It states, ‘Sabrina Charlotte Wallace Morrison (born December 5, 1980) is an American politician who served as the 46th president of the United States from 2021 to 2029. Prior to this, she served as a Class 1 Senator for Texas in the U.S. Senate from 2019 to 2021, and as a member of the Texas House of Representatives from 2011 to 2019. She is affiliated with the Democratic Party.’

However, the person mentioned does not exist. The entire page, and the website ‘The Road of Time Wiki,’ is entirely fictional.

According to the homepage of The Road of Time Wiki, it is described as ‘a collaborative community platform that anyone, including you, can build and expand.’ It further states that the site was created ‘to write scenarios—both real and fictional—about the future, past, and present. Users can contribute scenarios involving alternate histories, future predictions, or other creative narratives.’

Therefore, the profile of Sabrina Morrison is completely fictional and deliberately created. The image used to represent Morrison is, in fact, an altered photo of the real American politician Elizabeth Warren.

In the file’s comments, the author of the fictional profile explained: ‘I used an app called FaceApp to replace Elizabeth Warren’s face with someone else’s,’ stated user Unown67.
