      I was about to criticize you but honestly given the fucking clownshow of a country the US is right now, if this was a real picture it wouldn’t even be that much more unbelievable than everything else going on

      letters on the sign are legible, and she has the correct number of fingers, well if it’s fake, it’s better than any of the proof of life images.

        I think the AI bullshit has made people so dumb they forgot we could edit photos in the past, without them. This is not a generated image I don’t think, but I believe it is a Photoshop edit.

          I don’t know what his wife looks like or what the building she’s walking out of is, so it wouldn’t even take Photoshop to produce a convincing fake for me; just claim it’s his wife and if I don’t look it up I’d have no idea.

          I know most people could name every Kardashian but I kinda doubt they’re as familiar with Mrs. McConnell.

        the vehicle and the person do appear to me to be a ‘photoshop’ job (pasted onto the image of the building in the background)

      Honestly, no idea. But the head looks photoshoped, and also, you can’t really identify the person there.

      But I would completely accept it if some paper said she was caught buying a coffin.
