I saw bigfoot being captured. At least I thought I did. It turns out it was just Hillary being shoved into the back of a van.

Yeah, I waatched that video supposedly showing kids being nasty to native Americans and found that it was the opposite situation. All of the kids deserve Peace Medals for putting up with this extreme nonsensical crap. The idiot Indians were the ones screwing with people.

Give me a while an I could come up with tech to provably discern a fake video.

The opposite of encryption, where it is harder to decrypt than encrypt. It is MUCH harder to generate a perfect fake video than it is to detect one.

There is a joke video out there showing a frowning Barrack Obama leaving the podium, stepping offstage,
then angrily high kicking the door open on his way out.
I’m pretty sure (not 100%) that’s a fake, but it’s a funny one.

[BobL]

Sounds like Project Veritas has some HOT VIDEOS coming out, and they’re trying to get ahead of it. Regarding Rubio, might it be some ‘bath house’ shots?

[Maskot]

So I can’t use the phrase, “video or it didn’t happen” anymore?

Dang you fake media types will go to any lengths to convince people of your fakery. Aholes

[Lurker]

CNN does this every day.

“It is almost too late to sound the alarm before this technology is released — it has been unleashed … and now we are playing a bit of defense,” Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Mark Warner (D-Va.) told The Hill.

Really, Senator? I hold YOUR PARTY and The Deep State complicit with the Enemy Media for EVERY hateful thing spewed about President Trump, his family and his staff!

P*ss off.

[right way right]

Are they anticipating some real videos and want to create the narrative that they are fake?
We are at an amazing place.

No, Speaker Pelosi, that really was you doing that unnatural act with a dog.

"Now imagine the power of a video that appears to show stolen ballots..."

Interesting that Rubio would push that particular example.

This is the next step. Expect fake videos of Trump which will be broadcast 24/7 as if they were real.

[Revel]

Yes they have been pushing this narrative for awhile now. All it tells us is that they know something really bad is out there. And that its real.

[Oldexpat]

If something is to good to be true-it is probably fake. Just like the recent Trump Russia claim.

[yesthatjallen]

I'm surprised no one has tried to do a deepfake video of Trump and the p*ss*ng Russian prostitutes.

Do they know the premise is so outrageous no one would believe the video was real?

[WWG1WWA]

Yep. There is a Hillary video that is supposed to drop, a vid that will shock America. They are getting out in front of it by playing a “fake video” card.

[SERKIT]

I smell fear and a setup. The left is in fear that real videos will pop up that they claim we forgeries. I also think they will create anti-Trump fake videos and market them as real.
