Amazing, a Ford worker called Trump a “pedophile protector” during his visit to an assembly plant in Michigan today.
In return, Trump, who has failed to release the Epstein files, yelled, “fuck you” and flipped off the worker.

If you've lived in authoritarian countries (I have) this sort of thing is familiar (but still not okay - it makes people rightly angry). It's staggering to think that this has become a lived reality for many Americans in just one year.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

Charlotte Nichols MP (Labour, Warrington North) says AI-generated sexual harassment must be the final straw for the UK government using X

There is, to my mind, no justification for the continued use by the UK Government of X as a platform for official comms. There hasn't been for some time, in fact, but if the latest developments around AI-generated image abuse and CSAM don't change the policy I really don't know what will.
NEW: People are using Elon Musk's chatbot, Grok, to alter images to depict real women being sexually abused, humiliated, hurt, and even killed.

Alex Davies-Jones MP, the Minister for Violence against Women and Girls has posted this today to Elon Musk. This is about a future law the government proposes.
There is also a compelling case that X is breaching *existing* legal duties under both the Online Safety Act 2023 and the 2010 Equality Act
