President Trump and his allies are attempting to discredit House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- questioning her mental capabilities by sharing videos, including one that was doctored, of her appearing to slur her speech and stammer at recent public events

Washington President Donald Trump and his allies are attempting to discredit House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- questioning her mental capabilities by sharing videos, including one that was doctored, of her appearing to slur her speech and stammer at recent public events.

The videos, shared and viewed by millions, come during ongoing tensions between Democrats and the President over several House investigations probing his business, campaign and finances as well as mounting pressure on Pelosi to pursue impeachment. This week, two courts ruled against the President, who is appealing those rulings, to try to prevent his bank and accounting records from going to congressional investigators.

facebook is a festering cancerous tumor on our democracy. DeleteFacebook and all its garbage platforms.

Facebook kisses Trump ass all the time.

If it was a fake video of trump drunk it would be taken down but NancyPelosi not, that's how you know what 'side' Facebook is on. Zuckerberg is on the tax free money side.

FFS....Andy...

Facebook executives are paid to create manipulation on the community that is how they got where they are now playing with people's psychological needs what do you expect? the pinetree will not five you pears. did you get it? Facebook is full of liars

Shame on you facebook and MonikaBickert , this interview showed you to be Partisan and complicit in providing misinformation to the public. The video is fake and you know it. There is no excuse for not taking it down, no matter how many ways you try to defend it deletefacebook

This Pelosi and Trump thing is too much fun to watch. I hope it doesn’t stop.

I'm guessing her mirror has a few cracks in it.

She's DONE !!!!!!!

Monika Bickert's assertion is best stated that one of the most effective ways for Facebook to counter malign foreign or domestic influence operations is to shine a light on the nefarious activity and raise awareness of the manipulated videos like the one of Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Because video was not manipulated.

The irony of telling Facebook to remove fake content is next level.

I have lishened to Nanshy Peloshi schpeak many timesh I never heard her schlurr her schpeech!

She was a little defensive, wasn’t she?

I like AC360 but I think in this case he just doesn't understand FB's point of view. If FB removes the video people will just share it by other means... but without the fact check information provided by FB. So censoring the video will have the opposite effect that you want.

FB is such BS and where is faux feminust Sheryl Sandberg? She rarely leans in when FB is busted and manages to hide from taking the heat

Because it’s not manipulation

If you have not dumped Facebook yet, why not?

This is rich, and Andersoncooper complaining about Fake News!

It’s the gay, angry, rich white man channel! That includes don 🍋. The whitest of them all. Lmfao. It’s ok to be a gay male...not so cool to be an arrogant lying 🤥 snake. Two peas in a pod.

Nice work Facebook. This is how you became a Russian tool. fakebook

Great... now do Hamas, Hezbollah, and Antifa. 🙄

In other news, FaceBook is officially cancelled.

it is not fake its slowed down a hair. and you can understand it better than the original one

Why is this idiots press conference televised on your network from Japan?

ShutDownFacebook

She still did not answered the question. Let's see an altered video of the FM and see what happens.

Facebook sucks

Truth is Facebook have no clue what to do with the monster they help create. The fear of appearing to censor should never be confused with product control. Oh... and you are IN the news business. Own it.

I think Facebook has it right. People will find a way to share it, at least Facebook is making it so people know it’s false. I prefer this way then absolute censoring.

FakeNews

DeplorablesAreWinning OperationMockingbird

Anderson you fried her 👍😂

Doing nothing while allowing democracy to be undermined, the democracy that enabled your Facebook company to flourish, is just shitting in your own nest really.

😂😂😂Funny when the shoe is on the other foot. Suddenly FB rules suck. Anyone who supports censorship, will rue the day, when the tide turns against them. And it will.

If all doctored videos of politicians are removed; how would anyone be able to stay in their own reality!

Needs to be broken up.

It was slow down to 75% speed, it's not like it was made up, taken out of context and cropped the way media and Democrats manipulates Trump speach

He didn't ask the obvious question: 'Your experts have determined that the video is faked, but you say you've let it stay there in order to let people decide for themselves. You've stated that it's fake, so what are they going to decide?'

Is the video really fake? She does seem a little out of it every time she speaks!

Facebook created a dangerous community StayAwayFromFacebook

Cnn. Report on some real shit for once fakenews agenda activistsnotjournalists propaganda

Orders from Zuckerberg probably.

Layoff Anderson Cooper, that'll save some money. The result of FakeNews & being the enemyofthepeople, layoffs

Maybe it’s true Vanderbilt

Because it isn't manipulated. It matches live video.

Facebook is a horrible organization.

CNN pushed an edited video of Covington High School teens disparaging them horribly and never showed full video or apologized or redacted the story. Now being sued for 275 million. Shut up CNN. Everybody hates you now.

Now that is a cover up... Right Pelosi?

It’s her greatest hits

Free speech doesn't involve making fun of old women. When are we going to impeach this dictator?

Freedom 👏 of 👏 speech 👏

BS, facebook. The time is now for tech to get on board of misinformation and the demise of our democracy. Get better policy folks to deal with this!

THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROVOCATION

I saw it and she is full of s***

Trump responds angrily to Pelosi claim he's 'engaged in a cover-up'When asked if she was able to get Democrats on board on impeachment, Speaker Nancy Pelosi tells marykbruce House Democrats 'have different views, but there’s no division.' 'You all see something that is really not happening in our caucus.' McConnel blocks everything. Nice try though. House Dems stopped working on issues that matter years ago. Education, health care, public safety doesn’t mean shit anymore to them. All they want to do is chase Trump around. It’s a fcking shame for us people down here in real life. There are no adults in charge of the DNC. Not Tom Perez, not Pelosi, not AOC, none of the Clintonites or Obama leftovers. The DNC is a train w/ no conductor racing down the track. It’s a pathetic thing to witness.
