You Won't BELIEVE Who Fell For This AOC Deepfake
News Nation's Chris Cuomo lost his wits about him over an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez deepfake.
- 17 minutes
You're listening. I was wrong.
I was tweeting today and saw a clip of AOC
saying that Sydney Sweeney ad was racist.
And so I replied to it and I said,
why do you care about this
and ignore what matters most?
Why, in all the times
that you've called on Israel to stop,
[00:00:17]
why have you never told Hamas to stop?
Told Hamas to surrender?
So that is Chris Cuomo on his program
apologizing for getting something wrong
in regards to AOC?
Kind of. It technically, it's an apology.
[00:00:32]
It didn't feel much like one
or sound much like one.
He came out of it sounding more
confident about himself
and his position than he went into it.
But, he does kind of need to apologize
because that the the video that he
retweeted was the most obvious deepfake
that I've literally ever seen.
[00:00:49]
The original Will Smith eating spaghetti.
Videos were more convincing than this one
of AOC, and we're going to show it to you.
But first, Jenk,
both of us have been on Cuomo's show.
We agree with him on some stuff.
Disagree on others.
He's really doubling and tripling down
on this whole thing with AOC.
[00:01:05]
Yeah, there's a couple
of different things here.
I think look, as you guys know,
I like Chris as a person.
And but some of his statements
drive me absolutely crazy.
I'm sure mine does for him.
But lately, he's been going off
the deep end on Israel,
[00:01:20]
and I don't know what's driving it.
I don't know if it's his brother's race
and the fact that, you know,
one 128% of his brother's,
donors back Israel, I don't know.
I'm left to speculate.
In fact, we're speculating
on our live chat poll here.
[00:01:37]
Why does Cuomo dislike AOC?
She's a is she's too progressive.
B is she's too pro-Palestine.
C I'm not sure.
I kind of want to vote for all of them.
So I guess I'm not sure.
But like, I think that the Israel thing
might have to do a lot with it,
but so by the way,
watch the show live at 6:00 every day,
and then you get to participate through
[00:01:55]
the chats, etcetera to progressive.
Maybe you guys are right. I'm not sure.
So. Okay.
I'm going to come back
to how absurd the deepfake was.
I mean, in the deepfake,
you're going to see it in a second.
She talks about how people
masturbate to Sydney Sweeney.
[00:02:13]
How could you possibly think
that was real?
On the floor of the house.
Okay. It's insanity.
Right?
And then I want to come back to Cuomo's
obsession with how much he loves Israel
and how Hamas made them do it.
Hamas, like Israel,
is such a tiny little victory.
[00:02:30]
They keep getting bullied around by Hamas,
who is such a bigger
military than Israel, you know.
And that's why the Israelis
have lost 61,000 people and had
25,000 of their children massacred.
And that's why the Israelis
are starving to death.
And. Wait.
[00:02:45]
Oh, it's the opposite.
Can you guys tell Chris?
It's the opposite.
Okay.
Go ahead. Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, why don't why don't we start
with a little bit of that actual deepfake?
Sydney Sweeney
looks like an Aryan goddess.
And the American Eagle jeans campaign
is blatant Nazi propaganda.
[00:03:04]
Skinny, attractive, blond haired,
blue eyed,
cisgender women descend from the slave
daddy oppressors of this nation
and any man who cranks one out
while thinking about a woman like this
probably hates black people,
probably hates gay people,
and they certainly hate
[00:03:21]
the diversity of our great nation.
So I say, instead of simping
for the Sydney's, we should be celebrating
the shaniqua's instead of worshiping
the hot, straight blond.
What about the obese alphabet
people with blue hair?
They need love too.
[00:03:37]
And to all the haters who say
companies that go woke go broke.
I'd rather be poor than a Nazi.
Same.
But the rest of that obviously was fake.
Again, the very beginning of the video
where she's talking about her
[00:03:53]
looking like an Aryan goddess.
If she was being critical of the video,
Chris, why would she say that?
Like, why would she call her a goddess?
Why would she talk about her
swinging Fun bags on the house floor.
It's it's the most like her mouth
[00:04:08]
was like Conan O'Brien used to have,
like, a still image of a celebrity.
And then a person would do the lips
on a green screen that's more convincing
than this deep fake.
And Chris Cuomo is like,
I buy this, I'm running with this.
And and again, you can get stuff wrong.
I've been fooled before too.
[00:04:28]
But you just apologize and then that's it.
Maybe you promise to do better
and then that's it.
Not you apologize.
But actually, when you think about it,
I'm even more right than I thought I was.
That's not how apologies work
in politics or in personal relationships.
[00:04:43]
That's not going to get you anywhere.
And so he put out that video
and he put a tweet with it saying nothing
about Hamas or people burning Jews cars.
But sweetie jeans ad deserve time
on floor of Congress.
What happened to this party?
Fight for small business,
not for small culture wars.
[00:05:00]
Again, this is a culture war topic and it
is 99% as far as the media is concerned.
The right wing.
Do you know media matters
did an analysis last week.
Fox news used the name Sydney Sweeney
100 times more than Jeffrey Epstein.
[00:05:15]
Like, but you tell me the Democrats
are the ones focused on this culture war.
It's absurd.
So she responded, saying,
this is a deep fake, dude,
please use your critical thinking skills.
At this point, you're just reposting
Facebook memes and calling it journalism.
And he responded, and this is
a great first opportunity to apologize.
[00:05:32]
He says, you are correct.
That was a deep fake.
And then in parentheses.
But it really does sound like you know, it
doesn't it doesn't sound like any actual
person because it's obviously a joke.
It's obviously a way over the top
caricature of what the person who made it
[00:05:50]
thinks a leftist would say.
You can't seriously watch that
and think that's what AOC sounds like.
Or if you do think that that says so much
more about you than it does about AOC.
What do you think?
First, I just found out that Chris,
got a new dog
[00:06:05]
and the family is super excited about it.
It's Triumph the Insult comic dog.
He thought it was real.
He brought it home.
Just keeps insulting the family.
It's really annoying.
Okay, we're forced to make these jokes.
There's nothing we can do about it.
All right, here's why.
Here's why we're forced, brother.
[00:06:22]
First of all, it literally said
in the video this is a parody.
Okay. If you looked at the watermark.
Second of all,
she said the F word several times.
You think she say that
on the floor of the house?
Third of all,
the words didn't match her mouth at all.
[00:06:37]
Not even close.
Okay, you guys saw some of it.
You watched the whole thing.
She's like, I'm not going to imitate it.
But the words the mouth
doesn't match at all.
Okay, then you think she's going to say
things like, she's a hot, straight blond?
And by the way, that her own followers
are obese and have blue hair.
[00:06:54]
Okay, less likely to say that. Okay.
If you're a progressive
or a decent person.
But why am I still having
this conversation?
She said swinging funbags. Bags.
Come on, Chris, how'd you miss that one?
Okay.
[00:07:10]
Come on, come on, come on.
That is a statement that is not likely
to be made on the floor of the House.
And I, AOC could live 200 lifetimes
and never say that phrase.
Okay.
So no, no, no, no,
she's not like, that's like she AOC is not
[00:07:27]
going to go on the House floor
and talk about someone cranking one out.
That's not a thing that AOC says.
That's a thing that right wingers do
while hate watching AOC.
- Yeah, that's how that works out.
- Okay.
And she called Sydney Sweeney
a temptress and all that stuff.
So let me now address the last two things,
which is the Sydney Sweeney and the
[00:07:45]
and the Chris's obsession with Israel.
So Sydney Sweeney,
was mentioned by a couple of,
criticize that ad was criticized by
a couple of lefties, like 2 to 3 lefties.
And at that point, when it was
like a minute into the controversy,
I was like, no, no, no, don't do that.
Don't do that.
[00:08:01]
It's super stupid.
It's going to annoy people.
Right?
And then, So those 2 to 3 human beings.
Right.
Did say something.
And then that was followed
by 2 to 3 million right wingers
going Sydney, Sweeney, Sydney, Sydney,
Sydney, Sydney, Sydney Sweeney.
[00:08:17]
I got it, guys, I got it.
You found 2 to 3 people
who said something comical and absurd.
I agree with you that it was
comical and absurd, but what's what?
Much more absurd is pretending
that like 75 million Democratic voters
[00:08:32]
agree with three randos who made
a comment about that ad and how you guys
can't stop talking about it.
So culture wars meant to divide us.
Somebody does something wrong
on the right, on the left
or the right, by the way.
[00:08:47]
Say something terrible
about black people, gay people, etc.
And then there we go. We fight.
And then for the next month,
that's all we talk about, right?
So I'm gonna save the Israel part.
First.
You want to give us an update on that?
Yeah.
On what he was actually
referring to there.
Yeah, yeah.
[00:09:03]
So, they go back and forth, but this is
the incident that he was referring to
when he talks about the cars being burned.
So there's this thing, death to the IDF,
being, scrawled on a Clayton street
where there was a fire
that did damage three cars, and it's
believed to be an intentional attack.
[00:09:19]
It's a death to the IDF is written.
It was an intentional attack.
Thankfully, no one was injured.
It was just cars.
And, Leo Terrell, the head of the US
Department of Justice's Task Force
to Combat anti-Semitism, stated that
the attack targeted an American citizen
who had come back from serving in the IDF.
[00:09:35]
And so he referenced it there.
And then, on his show, he actually
talked about it a little bit more,
which we can go to.
He was right.
They got me. I it was really good.
And it did seem like something
she would say, but it wasn't her.
So I thanked AOC for correcting me.
[00:09:52]
But I then reminded her she ignored
the part of the tweet that mattered.
Okay, not Sweeney, which really
should have never been a thing.
Let's be honest.
Why did AOC, the most popular Democrat
in the country powerful, reportedly ignore
[00:10:08]
what I asked about calling on Hamas
to surrender to end the war they started.
She has never said that.
That I could find.
Think about that.
She also ignored my question about saying
nothing about the American IDF soldier
who returned home, only to have his car
firebombed in America by anti-Semites.
[00:10:29]
Why?
Why wouldn't you say anything about that?
She was also silent on the New York Times,
posting a picture of a Gazan boy
with cerebral palsy and making
him the face of starvation in Gaza.
Okay, so really fast, Jake.
Just a couple of things on that.
[00:10:46]
First of all, him saying, yeah,
they got me, but it was really good.
No, it wasn't, it wasn't good.
And it doesn't sound like her.
You're not apologizing.
You're basically saying
anybody could have been fooled.
And no, it's really bad
that you were fooled.
And then saying, why hasn't she
called on Hamas to surrender?
[00:11:01]
Yeah, that that is
what Hamas is waiting for.
If only the junior congresswoman from New
York had called for that, they would have
said, why didn't she talk about the fire?
Because it happened like 2000
miles from her district,
and she can't comment on literally every
hate crime that happens in America.
This is America in 2025.
There's hate crimes constantly.
[00:11:19]
Okay.
She's not going to comment
on literally everyone.
And so it's just like he just desperately
wants to make this point, this point
about everybody being mean to Israel.
And he wants to tie it to someone
who is notable and popular.
That's what this feels like to me.
[00:11:35]
Yeah.
So look, we don't know who did that crime.
So they've already made a whole bio
of a guy that we don't know.
And so, if it turns out to be what was
logical and what we all think, which is
an anti-Semite who, or someone who hates
Israel, but did this violent act, right?
[00:11:56]
Chris, that's what do you think?
That's hard.
Like, I think that a lot of people
on the right and apparently, Chris, they
think it's hard for us to condemn that.
It's not hard at all.
It's so obvious.
Oh, are you pro or anti blowing up a car.
I'm anti blowing up a car.
Is that like a like.
[00:12:13]
Do you think that we
are pro blowing up a car.
And do you think it's
like a controversy or something.
It's not a controversy.
Of course you shouldn't do that.
Obviously condemning Hamas brother.
Okay. Actually, before I move on to that.
Wait.
And, I don't know, maybe he could
correct me or or not even correct me,
[00:12:30]
but tell me, because I'm not sure.
Did Chris Cuomo cover on air
the six year old Palestinian American boy
who was killed in this country because his
landlord thought the Palestinians were
terrorists and murdered that poor kid?
Did he cover the Israeli supporter
who ran over peace protesters
[00:12:50]
by Columbia with his car?
Did he cover the Israeli supporter
who shot at two people in Miami, thinking
they looked like they were Palestinians?
Turned out they were Israeli tourists.
Okay.
Were all those covered the thugs
who attacked the peace protesters at UCLA
[00:13:08]
and got away with it as the cops stood by
for three hours straight, letting them
assault the peace protesters viciously.
Maybe he covered 1 or 2 of those.
Did he cover all of them?
Did he make a giant big deal out of it?
Because if we're going
to go crime for crime,
I mean, there's there's so many more.
[00:13:24]
And then we if you get into Israel,
the crimes of Israel are a thousand times.
Did he cover every starving child?
I mean, did he cover every child
that Israel has murdered?
Well, no, of course not,
because that would take his entire show
[00:13:40]
every day, eight times a day, right?
But no, no, no. Beloved, beloved.
Tiny little victim Israel.
Little victim Israel.
I mean, they only slaughtered
61,000 Palestinians at a bare minimum.
So, okay, now on to Hamas.
They always think
this is such a big gotcha.
[00:13:57]
Do you condemn Hamas?
Yeah I do. It's easy.
Okay, check. Okay.
Now let me ask you something in return.
Israel has murdered 50 times
the number of civilians as Hamas and over
500 times the number of children as Hamas.
[00:14:15]
So do you condemn Israel?
Okay. I'll wait.
I'll wait the rest of my life
before any of these is the lovers
of Israel's genocide, turn around and go.
Oh, you're right.
Israel's 50 times a terrorist. Hamas are.
[00:14:32]
What they'll do instead is. Oh, no!
How dare you say that?
Don't you know Israel is
the greatest moral country in the world,
and our special ally?
We owe them. We owe them all of our money.
We owe them a genocide.
We owe them murdering all the Palestinian
kids and us cheerleading on the side.
[00:14:48]
We don't owe them anything.
I don't know a country in the middle
of a genocide murdering kid after kid,
now starving children to death.
So do you condemn Israel, Chris Cuomo
and every Israeli supporter?
Do you condemn Israel?
[00:15:04]
Because if you don't, you love terrorism.
And that's just a stone cold fact.
We're honest and principled.
We condemn all the terrorists.
For them,
if you're a muslim, I condemn you.
Terrorist, Muslim.
[00:15:21]
Oh, Israel murdering
50 times as many people.
Bravo! Here's more money.
No! Not mine.
American taxpayers. You!
Oh, Israel, you.
Oh, they haven't slaughtered
enough Palestinian kids.
They didn't intend to.
That's why there's sniper shots
in the head.
In the chest,
reported by doctors over and over again.
[00:15:37]
That's why they drop 2,000 pound bombs.
That's why they cut off aid to the point
where nearly 200 people have starved.
90 children have starved to death.
How could you do
an unintentional starvation campaign?
But nope. Nope, nope.
Beloved Israel, beloved terrorist
Israel cannot be condemned.
[00:15:57]
But the real problem
is AOC talking about city.
Wait, she didn't even do that.
So you see all of these distractions
to protect a government
that is doing genocide
in arguable ethnic cleansing and genocide.
[00:16:12]
In fact, today they announced, yeah,
we're taking over all of Gaza.
And by the way, here,
here's a new prediction for you guys.
When Netanyahu today was covered later
in the show, said, oh, we're going
to take over all of Gaza, then later
we'll give it back to the Palestinians.
[00:16:29]
I guarantee you, Cuomo is on the air
tonight going, oh, of course they will.
They're such humanitarians.
After they remove all the Palestinians
and they slaughter way more of them,
tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.
Then after they murder and move
and ethnically cleanse all of them,
[00:16:45]
then they'll give it back.
Are you really going to say
they're going to give it back?
Come on, man.
Go ahead, make one more, you know,
ridiculous, ludicrous argument
on behalf of a genocidal government.
One after another,
after another, after another.
[00:17:02]
Don't you get tired of it?
Doesn't your conscience bother you?
So that's what I think.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
