I don’t know if there’s a more perfect illustration of the utter fucking nonsense that creative pollution by AI will produce than this choice to illustrate the power of Paramount’s new “localization” and “customization” technology by face-swapping Brad Pitt into the lead role of GET OUT

It is truly horrifying what is being alleged against the Trump administration in the Ghana case.

Here is from an affidavit filed in the case today: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
3. I was granted withholding of removal by an immigration judge in the Otero Immigration Court on April 30, 2025 on account of the likelihood that I would be persecuted or killed Case 1:25-cv-03135-TSC Document 21-1 Filed 09/13/25 Page 2 of 5 if removed to Nigeria. My wife is a U.S. citizen. She filed an I-130 petition on my behalf for me to receive a family visa. That petition was approved four months ago. 4. I am currently detained in Dema Camp in Ghana, where myself and other people who were also deported from the United States are being imprisoned. We are constantly surrounded by military guards. 5. I am originally from Nigeria. In Nigeria, I was a member of one of Nigeria's main political parties, the P.D.P. In 2018, 1 started being violently targeted by members of the ruling political party, the A.P.C. In November 2018, members of the A.P.C. beat me and other party leaders with plank woods, iron rods, and machetes. The attacks escalated from then and happened several times until I left Nigeria. 6. I fled Nigeria in 2019 after being tortured by the military and police officers for the Nigerian Department of State Services. They tortured me and kept me locked in a dog cage for three days until they let me go and told me they would kill me if they ever saw me again. After this incident I had to leave Nigeria to save my life. 7. Nothing in Nigeria has gotten better since I left. The situation in the country has become worse. The political party that targeted me is still in power. 9. The officer finally told me that we were going to Ghana. I told him that I am afraid of going to Ghana and that I cannot go to Ghana. 10. He told us "whether you like it or not, your ass is getting on that plane." He then straitjacketed me extremely tightly, tying me from my shoulders to my feet. 11. I was put onto a military plane with the other people who were taken from their cells. I remained straitjacketed for several hours until I pleaded with the officers to remove it so that I could use the restroom. I begged the officers over and over again to take off the straitjacket so that I could use the restroom, otherwise I would urinate on myself. They finally removed the restraints on my legs after pleading with them for a long time, but left the restraints on my upper body. 23. We are all afraid for our lives. We are not safe here, and now they are planning to hand us over to our country's government for further persecution and torture. We don't know what our futures hold. 24. We urgently need help. We do not want to meet with government officials of our countries or to be returned to those countries. I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on September 13, 2025. /s/ Signature September 13. 2025 Date

I didn't see that but following! I've been meaning to revisit Life: the Movie by Neal Gabler. Written pre-social media, a great history of our "entertainment is the opiate of the masses" culture. I read it during The Apprentice's first season and remember thinking, "How prescient." And then... 😮‍💨
