Former Trump DHS official explains how ‘deepfake’ videos pose a very real threat to American elections

'You could ruin a whole election'
 

There's a been a lot of discussion of fraudulent "deepfake" videos on the internet over the last few weeks. One Trump official says the intricate hoaxes are more than just fodder for fake news; they can be a problem for our national security.

On a recent episode of BlazeTV's "America with Eric Bolling," former DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Lauren Claffey explained that the technology allowing for the creation of completely fake videos of public figures "is advancing so quickly that I think lawmakers and private citizens are very concerned that we don't have the capabilities and also just the awareness to combat it appropriately."
