White House posts digitally altered image of woman arrested after ICE protest
AI Summary
The White House posted a digitally altered image of Nekima Levy Armstrong, a woman arrested in connection with a protest against an ICE official in St. Paul, Minnesota. The altered image, posted shortly after Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the arrests on social media Thursday morning, depicts Armstrong as crying and appears to darken her skin tone. A Guardian analysis confirmed the image was altered by comparing it to an unaltered photo posted by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. When asked about the alteration, the White House responded with a statement defending law enforcement and continuing memes. The White House X account has reportedly posted AI-generated content at least 14 times since the start of Trump's second term.
