The Daily Beast outed Shawn Brooks Saturday, claiming that he was responsible for posting the fake “drunk Pelosi” video that caused a furor among media outlets. The video artificially slowed the speech and mannerisms of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. It was identified as a fake, but not before it had been shared across multiple social media platforms. (RELATED: Pelosi Says She Will ‘Pray For Trump’ After Surprise Presser Blasting Democrats) Brooks, a black 34-year-old day laborer from New York, became the media’s white whale the minute the Pelosi video was labeled “fake news.” Politicians, pundits and activists alike called for social media outlets to remove the video from circulation — and while YouTube complied with such requests, Facebook opted to simply label the video as “fake.”

Black privilege on display.
If it had been a white 34 y-o, the FBI would be investigating the guy's history back to his days in diapers.

He forking lifted himself out of anonymity.
Military/Veterans?
There was no need for anyone to doctor the video. I saw the original while being held hostage where CNN was on. I thought she was drunk in the original.
More proof, as if any were needed, that scratch a progressive and you’ll find a fascist every time.
Another runaway slave off the plantation.
Well done, Shawn Brooks.
Part of the “background” Brooks cited was his turn to conservatism after losing his job to illegal immigrants during the presidency of Barack Obama. After several years of driving a forklift at a warehouse in Queens, Brooks told the Daily Beast that the higher-ups started bringing in illegal immigrants who could do the same work for less money.
“I was working there four or five years and I was being paid pretty well,” he explained. “And then they started bringing these guys in vans through the side door. This was going on for months. Then all of a sudden they told me, ‘We can’t pay you anymore.'”
Good job Shawn. Disgraceful that they outed you but you did nothing wrong.
‘Brooks told the Daily Beast that the higher-ups started bringing in illegal immigrants who could do the same work for less money.’
What does he not understand - after all, Avocados are now 10 cents cheaper because of people like the ones who drove him out of his job.
The racist Democrat/Left media simply cannot accept the reality that black people can actually not wholeheartedly be on “their side”.
“It’s bizarre that race is a part of the story. “
Not really. The Dims wanted other uppity blacks to understand what happens when you run away from the plantation.
I saw the live press conference too. I viewed her as the drunken witch that she is. I wondered if anyone would catch her slurring of words, forgetfulness and weird facial expressions. I thought it would get swept under the rug like everything else by the protective Dem media. It took a black forklift driver to make sure is didn’t.
SHawn...WALKAWAY is calling you!
Nancy Pelosi IS beginning to show the impairments that come with age. That the speech is slurred and motions somewhat uncoordinated is not necessarily a sign of inebriation, it could very well be seen as sign of worsening physical deterioration of the central nervous system.
Parkinson’s? Senile dementia? Possibly an undiagnosed stroke?
He strayed off the Democratic Plantation. They’ll destroy him
Shawn: Check out Blexit as well as Walkaway.
You are not allowed to mock the Democrat Nomenklatura, Prol. Know your place, or the apparatchiks will come after you.
All Hail the Great Party!
