Senate Republicans deepfaked Chuck Schumer, and X hasn’t taken it down 

Senate Republicans have posted a deepfaked video of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on their X account. The video appears to be manipulated and presents Schumer saying something he did not actually say. According to X's policies, the platform prohibits the sharing of synthetic or manipulated media that could mislead people or cause significant confusion on public issues. However, the platform has not taken down the deepfaked video as of now. The use of deepfake technology to create false or misleading content raises concerns about the integrity of information shared on social media platforms. While the platform's policies aim to address such issues, the failure to remove the video in question highlights the ongoing challenges in effectively moderating and addressing the spread of misinformation online.
