Don Winslow is a Leftist author who writes about crime. He just committed fraud on the internet so maybe he should be arrested. At the very least, we will mock him.

Winslow shared this horrific video of ICE officers pulling a small child off her hysterical mother. Just one problem ... the video is AI. Yes, really.

Thankfully, X has added a note explaining to users how they can spot AI.

Bill Melugin of Fox News helpfully pointed out to Winslow this was AI, but Winslow has yet to remove the video. What a coward.
My heart breaks for that AI baby

Really hope that AI baby is sleeping peacefully in her bed after being comforted by her AI Mama. Hopefully, she got a Happy Meal from AI McDonalds as a special treat.
It is hilarious that after all the deportations, you idiots can't find one truly sympathetic case.

At least Grok is having some fun with it, too.
This is AI. The ICE agent has 3 arms.

The sad thing is Winslow has millions of followers over all his social media platforms and he likely will never correct this heinous lie.
Almost 1 million followers and this person is spreading around AI generated videos as if they were genuine.

With so many willingly spreading misinformation to suit their narrative, why would the government even need to waste its time doing so?
Check the 3 hands on that "agent" https://t.co/orbSWT3LXc pic.twitter.com/6nF42cMIUD
This is why it's so hard to find any consensus in America now. People have no idea what to believe.

This is Don Winslow, bestselling author, posting an AI video of an ICE agent taking a baby from a mother and chastising MAGA for it.

Except that actually happened. Poor kid. He's now been brainwashed into a full fledged Communist when his Mother gave her life trying to get him to freedom.

Don Winslow needs to give Don Winslow that advice.
