The Virginia Democrat whose campaign for a state Assembly seatwas overshadowed by revelations about her online porn hustle lost her race Tuesday night.

The Associated Press projected Wednesday the 40-year-old candidate, Susanna Gibson, narrowly lost to Republican David Owen in Virginia House District 57.

The Washington Post reported in September aboutGibson's gig in which she had live-streamed sex with her husband and soliciting money from viewers in exchange for specific acts.

Gibson accused Republicans of playing dirty politics in exposing her conduct. (How many perverts are in politics, lots I guess)

The mother of two posted over a dozen videos that were archived on a website in September 2022, which is after she officially entered the race, according to FoxNews.com.

Republicans scored several big wins Tuesday night across liberal-leaning New York – from Long Island to Utica – despite having underperformed in Ohio and Virginia.

In the western city of Troy, Republican Carmella Mantello was elected the first female mayor, after eight years of Democrat leadership under Mayor Patrick Madden.

Some of Mantello's top priorities include reducing crime and improving the quality of life, according to local news.

Republicans won another mayor race in the state's western region – when Republican Michael Galime unseated Utica Democrat Mayor Robert Palmieri.

On Long Island, the state's Atlantic Coast, the GOP won two key races – a state Assembly seat in Nassau County and a county executive seat in Suffolk County.

Republican Ed Romaine defeated Democrat David Calone for the Suffolk seat held by a Democrat who was not seeking reelection.

In New York City, two Republicans won reelection to the City Council – Vickie Paladino in District 19 of Queens and Inna Vernikov in District 48 of Brooklyn.

Meta to start labeling political ads with AI-generated images ahead of 2024 election

AI-generated ads are already being used in the U.S.

Published: November 8, 2023 8:55am

Facebook and Instagram will require political ads on their platforms to disclose if they were created with artificial intelligence so they can be labeled as such, Meta, the parent company of the social media giants, announced Wednesday.

The new policy, which will take effect worldwide Jan. 1, will place labels acknowledging the use of artificial intelligence on users' screens when they click on the advertisements, according to The Associated Press.

The development comes amid concerns that AI-generated images could be used to quickly develop lifelike images, video and audio that could be used fake videos of candidates and events. When shared on social media, it could confuse voters on a large scale.

Minnesota Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar hailed Meta's decision as positive but said more needs to be done.

"This decision by Meta is a step in the right direction, but we can’t rely on voluntary commitments alone," she said Tuesday after a spokesperson confirmed the plans earlier this week. "I’m continuing to push to pass stronger disclosure laws that account for AI-manipulated content in campaign ads, as well as to ban deceptive AI-generated content in our elections and counter the spread of election-related disinformation."

AI-generated ads are already being used in the U.S. Over the summer, a super PAC supporting Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis for president launched an ad that used AI to mimic former President Donald Trump's voice to criticize Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds, who has since endorsed DeSantis.

(Pretty sure this is going to be totally manipulated, and they’ll probably label all of Trump’s ads as AI. KEK)

Comer vows to hold recalcitrant witnesses in contempt, compel answers from Joe Biden

"The very last person we'll interview will obviously be the President of United States," the House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman said.

Updated: November 7, 2023 8:02pm

On the cusp of a major wave of subpoenas, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer vowed Tuesday night to hold recalcitrant witnesses in contempt of Congress and toeventually compel President Joe Bidento submit to an interview.

"You know, we're gonna start with the family," Comer told the "Just the News, No Noise" television show during a wide-ranging interview. "We have to ask the family specific questions. And then in the end, the very last person we'll interview will obviously be the President of the United States."

The man leading the impeachment inquiry said the next phase of the investigation will focus on pressing Biden family members and associates about the complex movement of foreign monies from Ukraine, Russia, Romania, China, and Kazakhstan through a matrix of limited liability companies and bank accounts. A fundamental question, he added, is "what role did Joe play in all of this?"

He said the revelation in recent weeks that President Biden received two checks marked as loan repayments totaling $240,000 in 2017 from James Biden after his brother received money from Chinese or domestic clients proves that the president benefited from his family's business deals. He added that, to date, his committee does not have enough evidence to show whether there were truly loans at the heart of the transactions between the president and his brother. "Joe Biden's $240,000 better off because of his family's influence-peddling scheme," Comer said. "That is a fact. And we do not have any evidence at the White House is saying that would prove that that was a loan."

Comer said his committee also wants to determine how often, if ever, first son Hunter Biden used business proceeds to help pay his father's bills over the years since there are emails on Hunter Biden's laptop that talk about that practice and even list certain transactions.

Asked how he plans to deal with witnesses or the White House if they are unwilling to provide documents and testimony, Comer did not hesitate."We['re] gonna go to (Speaker) Mike Johnson's office and knock on the door and demand that we try to hold these people in contempt of Congress," Comer said. "We have proven that there are a lot of questions that they need to answer. We've proven that this is a national security crisis. We've proven that the White House has lied time and time again about their knowledge and involvement in this shady influence peddling scheme.

"We expect people to come to Congress, and if they don't, thenI think they should be held in contempt. And I believe that a majority of the Republican caucus would agree with me," he added.

(Seriously he doesn’t sound very confident that he wants to do this. ==He should have said, “they should be held in contempt, not he think they should be held in contempt. These guys need a backbone)
