Melania Trump backs bill against deepfakes
On Monday, Melania Trump officially endorsed a bill aimed at protecting North Americans from deepfakes and so-called revenge pornography. This marked her first public appearance since Donald Trump resumed the office of President of the United States.
The November presidential elections in the United States concluded with a victory for Donald Trump, igniting a range of emotions and controversies. A few weeks ago, the 78-year-old moved back into the White House with his family. Recently, there has been considerable discussion about Trump's polarizing plans regarding American immigrants. Last week's major topic was the politician's meeting with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.
With Donald Trump's election as president, Melania Trump returned to fulfilling the duties of the First Lady of the United States. Recognized as a "style icon," the 54-year-old rarely speaks on political or social issues and usually remains in her husband's shadow. Several weeks have passed since the presidential inauguration, and Melania has already managed to surprise citizens.
Melania Trump spoke for the first time since her husband's inauguration
On Monday, Melania Trump, who typically avoids public appearances, participated in a discussion in Washington, D.C. The First Lady of the United States endorsed the "TAKE IT DOWN" bill, which aims to protect victims of deepfakes and so-called revenge pornography, involving the sharing of someone else's sexually explicit images. The project, supported by Senators Ted Cruz and Amy Klobuchar, has already received Senate approval. Trump's beloved expressed satisfaction that senators from different political backgrounds united on this issue.
I was heartened to learn that Senator Cruz and Senator Klobuchar unified to prioritize this fundamental matter, but I must admit, however, I expected to see more Democrat leaders here today to address this serious issue. Surely, as adults we can prioritize America's children ahead of partisan politics - she stated.
At the roundtable in Washington, Melania wore a white shirt, black tie, and a stylish light-brown suit. Speaking to the assembled politicians and guests, the 54-year-old emphasized the importance of creating a safe environment for the youth. After the debate, she remained in the room to talk with guests and participants of the meeting.
It’s heartbreaking to witness young teens, especially girls, grappling with the overwhelming challenges posed by malicious online content, like deepfakes. This toxic environment can be severely damaging. … Every young person deserves a safe online space to express themselves freely, without the looming threat of exploitation or harm - highlighted Melania Trump.
"Melania hates her husband." Where did the narrative about Trump's wife originate, and is it justified?
