CNSNews.com) - Realistic fake videos increasingly pose a major threat to our democracy, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) told the Senate intelligence committee on Tuesday.

"Deep fakes -- are you familiar with that term?" Rubio asked William Evanina, tapped by President Trump to be the next director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center.

Evanina said no, so Rubio explained:

"A deep fake is the ability to manipulate sound images or video to make it appear that a certain person did something that they didn't do." The senator said the videos are increasingly realistic, thanks to advances in technology

There has sure been a lot of warnings about fake videos from the MSM and the establishment lately. It’s almost like they’re afraid of something that’s coming up.

Rubio is a rube. The biggest threat to our democracy is not systematically producing young conservatives.

This technology is easily defeated by stating every thing clearly, in public.

“If you see it a video of me dancing in a bunch of soap bubbles with gay men, ignore it, it is fake.”

The 1997 movie “Wag the Dog” demonstrated who was making fake videos over twenty years ago, and nothing has changed.

I remember this video. Wasn’t this the one where Marco was talking about how he was the featured dancer at his gay friends bachelor party?

Speaking of Rubio, from sundance at CT...

Senator Mark Warner and Entire Senate Intelligence Committee Compromised, Corrupt and Finally Exposed…

I don't think Rubio was a member of The Gang of 8. But it looks like he's been providing them cover...
