A video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), with the audio slowed to make her speech sound drunkenly slurred, is permeating the social media landscape, already infiltrating Facebook, Twitter and Youtube.
The video is from Pelosis Wednesday speech at the Center for American Progress. The Washington Post reported on the spread of the video.
The Facebook video in particular has already been shared more than 35,000 times. And based on some of the nearly 7,000 comments, viewers are buying it hook, line and sinker.

(14,118 posts)as we can see from the whispers being produced about Democratic politicians and candidates.
Innuendos that are being presented concerning Elizabeth Warren are typical of these corrupt efforts.
We have to resist and push back. As long as we have the truth on our side our response can be so devastating to them and satisfying for us!

(56,829 posts)there was a meme that went around about the Pope endorsing Donald Trump. It was shared something like 1.5 million times just on Facebook. The snopes and factcheck.org articles debunking the Pope story were shared like 25,000 times.
This went around a few months after Trump insulted the Pope on Twitter or in a speech.

They have no problems with him actually BEING that way, though.

I suspect theyll be a big part of the 2020 campaign story. In any case, who made the Pelosi videos? I suspect this isnt just some random hoaxster. I suspect there are bigger players behind it.
But note this. I happened to flip on Lou Dobbs show a short while ago just randomly turned it on. And there was Corey Lewandowski, one time Trump campaign manager and now outside advisor to the President clearly referencing this faked videos as real and discrediting. The news conclusively showing they were phonies came out in the afternoon. This is a few hours later.
