This AI slop Memesita website just makes up quotes. I’m constantly fake-quoted now by clowns who don’t exist alongside completely fake people who don’t exist on a website run by fake editorial staff who don’t exist.
Some other AI or some bad faith dipshit is going to treat this as real. 🙄

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
