Sen. Klobuchar Furious Over AI Video of Her Praising Sydney Sweeney’s (Well, You Know)
“If Republicans are gonna have beautiful girls with perfect t-tties in their ads, we want ads for Democrats too, you know?”
Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) was recently featured in a video that is not her, but a creation of artificial intelligence. In the video, she is discussing the recent, viral Sydney Sweeney ad for jeans.
Whoever made the AI video has a great sense of humor. Avoid drinking anything as you read the rest of this.
From the New York Post:
Sen. Klobuchar sets record straight: She never said Sydney Sweeney had ‘perfect t-tties’ or that Dems were ‘too ugly to go outside’
Sen. Amy Klobuchar is calling for new legislation to address “deepfakes” after a highly realistic AI-generated video that appeared to show her making outrageous statements about Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle jeans ad went viral.
The Minnesota Democrat took to the opinion page of the New York Times Wednesday to clear the air after the video made the rounds online, appearing to show her speaking at a recent Senate Judiciary subcommittee meeting on data privacy.
In her op-ed, Klobuchar decried the bogus footage, which she noted was viewed online more than a million times.
“The A.I. deepfake featured me using the phrase ‘perfect t-tties’ and lamenting that Democrats were “too fat to wear jeans or too ugly to go outside,” the real Sen. Klobuchar wrote.
“Though I could immediately tell that someone used footage from the hearing to make a deepfake, there was no getting around the fact that it looked and sounded very real.”
“If Republicans are gonna have beautiful girls with perfect t-tties in their ads, we want ads for Democrats too, you know?” the deepfake version of Klobuchar said, eerily mirroring the senator’s voice and vocal style.
“We want ugly, fat bitches wearing pink wigs and long-ass fake nails being loud and twerking on top of a cop car at a Waffle House because they didn’t get extra ketchup, you know?” the video continued.
“Just because we’re the party of ugly people doesn’t mean we can’t be featured in ads, OK? And I know most of us are too fat to wear jeans or too ugly to go outside, but we want representation.”
Here’s the video:

Klobuchar commented on Twitter/X.
I never thought I’d opine about Sydney Sweeney’s jeans. And that’s because I didn’t. It was AI.
Deepfakes are getting impossible to detect, especially when companies—and Congress—refuse to act. We need to give Americans control over their own images.https://t.co/QrhAbdoWZX

She is responding with legislation.
From The Hill:
Klobuchar noted that her experience “does not in any way represent the gravest threat posed by deepfakes” and pointed to other recent examples, including when someone used AI to pretend to be Secretary of State Marco Rubio and contacted various high-level government officials.
President Trump in May signed into law a bill that Klobuchar pushed for, cracking down on so-called deepfake revenge porn — or sexually explicit AI images and videos that are posted without the victim’s consent.
Klobuchar is calling now for Congress to pass her bipartisan No Fakes Act, which “would give people the right to demand that social media companies remove deepfakes of their voice and likeness, while making exceptions for speech protected by the First Amendment,” she said.
“In the United States, and within the bounds of our Constitution, we must put in place common-sense safeguards for artificial intelligence. They must at least include labeling requirements for content that is substantially generated by A.I.,” she wrote in the op-ed.
We live in truly amazing times.

Unfortunately that may be the most coherent thing she has ever said during her Senate time.
I misread the last word in the transcript as “reparations,” which was twice as funny.
Well,, they are “perfect t-tties.”
agree. but I more like long legs and nice a##.
Sweeney’s got a pretty good line on that as well.
They are pretty darn close, that’s for sure
So, Kobuchar is anti-humor.
No surprise.
But it remains the case that the AI video, made-up as it was, was 100% factual. I am disappointed that the video left out one of the dems’ favorite activities – sh*tting on the street … or on cop cars.
Anyway, it’s nice to know that Klobuchar is now going to be setting after any comic who makes fun of her … because dems are determined to save “our Democracy” from funny people. Luckily for dems, leftist comics stopped being funny around 2008.
She is a liberal Democrat woman. What type of humor do you expect out of her?
I was under the impression that parody was in fact allowed under the First Amendment.
My suggestion. Make it illegal for politicians and “journaliars” to lie. Then we can discuss whether America citizens can use AI voice to parody politicians.
One cannot remove one right, while reserving the same to themselves.
The AI video did fail one one aspect (which made it obvious that it wasn’t Klobuchar) – the voice didn’t sound warbled and strained as if she was going to keel over and die any second.
American Eagle should get Amy to do a commercial. And if its with Sydney – viewers can draw own conclusions.
Actually, I think a joint commercial could be done in a fun way that builds the American Eagle brand further. Think of the Wendy’s “real beef” ad.
I don’t blame her for being upset. Sorta. That said, people like Klobuchar and the rest of the Democrat horde never take a stand against anything except Donald Trump. They never stand up for privacy in social media, theft of other’s original work in training AI, what’s the word, bots(?), fraudulent social security payments, illegal use of election campaign donations . . .the list is endless.
Unfortunately, this may be an innocent small sample of what it takes to get them to take conditions in this country seriously. She or one of her female colleagues, perhaps one of their daughters, should have to share a locker room with horny Eric Swalwell or weirdo Adam Schiff. Perhaps if she or one of their daughters is raped by an illegal immigrant, killed in an auto accident caused by an illegal immigrant who can’t read road signs written in English, is mugged and beaten by a drug addict or mentally ill homeless person, or finds themselves pushed off the platform into the path of a subway train, then let’s have it.
It’s unfortunate, but it’s time some of these coddled, spoiled, pontificating, finger wagging chisellers suffered the consequences of their actions directly. Let’s have a high profile mugging or rape; how about it Senator Klobuchar? It’s time for you, one of your loved ones, or a member or two of your whole lousy Democrat lot to find your ti***es in a genuine wringer rather than the victim of what’s nothing more than a high tech prank. It’s always someone else.
In my opinion, she always looks like she’s had a bit too much to drink.
Klobuchar needs to stick to abusing her staff which are no doubt fat ugly angry black women with multiple piercings, tattoos, and pink hair who are paid less than men and love twerking on top of cop cars at waffle houses.
It’s done. Streisand effect. Stick a comb in it.
“Deepfakes are getting impossible to detect, especially when companies—and Congress—refuse to act.”
Yeah. Congress is gonna do something to fix everything.
The same Congress that has tried for 70 years to keep hardened criminals from passing around massive guns to each other like bowls of vegetables at a Thanksgiving dinner, is going to successfully corral a cupful of electrons.
Laws — is there anything they can’t do? Quite a hell of a lot of things.
Math problem:
Scott Adams estimates that about 30% of the population has no sense of humor. If about 50% of the population is Democrat, what percentage of Democrats have no sense of humor?
50% of the population is NOT Democrat. It’s more like 1/3 with 1/3 Republican and 1/3 independent more or less, The answer to your question is0 probably something like 50% or higher in my opinion, Some dramacrats have a sense of humor, just not one many people would find funny.
dems sense of humor is when
its twins or triplets that are aborted
“Sen. Amy Klobuchar is calling for new legislation to address “deepfakes””
The *entire* point of the first amendment is to keep STUPID people from passing STUPID laws that infringe upon our inalienable rights.
I can hardly contain myself at how utterly ridiculous this STUPID woman is behaving. Someone makes fun of her and she wants to pass a law?
Sidney Sweeney is, quite frankly, an average looking American girl with average… well, you know. I am by no means criticizing her or demeaning her at all but I really don’t understand the hate that’s thrown at her.
She white, and she made her fortune by appealing to men
She a witch.
I suspect she is doing nothing different than women have since they once lived in caves. In fact, isn’t it only modern society that has given women more choices than catering to the most successful “hunter”?
All that is true. And the women who did can still be incredibly jealous of the women who choose more traditional paths.
Sydney Sweeney reminds them what a real woman is.
That’s why they hate her.
Next they’ll want to outlaw political cartoons.
If they’re about Democrats.
Stupid video. You’ve got to make the target look good but just with something a tiny bit off. Start with sympathy but find irony as well, such that only a few of the audience will notice it.
No; to rational minds, the video is actually quite funny, clever, and, spot-on accurate with regard to what a Dhimmi-crat Senator would say about the Sweeney advertisement, if she was being honest.
Your comic sensibilities are as warped and ill-formed as your political opinions.
Lighten up, Francis.
That’s funny. Rush Limbaugh: feminism was created to give the ugly better access to the mainstream.
Any nitwit with impaired cognitive functions could tell it was fake from the get-go, as politicians are masters of illusion and never say such unless they are an inebriated AG or Democratic candidate for governor of the southern half of the Carolinas.
Moon Mullins was no deep fake.
Or on a date with a James O’Keefe undercover.
Unfortunately for Amy, wouldn’t this video be among those exempted by her law due to First Amendment protection? Does she think a law against mocking politicians with deepfakes will pass constitutional muster?
Under the pretext of her law, what would prevent politicians from asking for the takedown of real videos that they find personally embarrassing? Who will make the determination that a video is genuine or fake? What social media platform wouldn’t intentionally take down real videos while excusing itself with the law?
“That video has all the hallmarks of AI propaganda.”

How about a simple commonsense statute that makes clear the spoken and written words as well as all images or video plus the personal data to include browser history, online shopping data, in person shopping data… IOW all a person’s consumer actions +image/video, posts …all of it belongs 100% to the individual. That the data may not be collected, stored, scanned, put into another form, can’t be sold, transferred or given away. Each instance requires written consent. Violations are 1-5 years in prison and a $10K to $50K fine for EACH violation. Multiple violations resulting conviction or plea must run consecutively and fines are aggregated. Each corporate CIO or equivalent is liable. The COO, CEO and the entire Board of Directors would be liable for failure of adequate oversight on conviction of CIO and subject to same penalties based on presumption of conspiracy to commit the acts ..unless they contact LEO to report the violation.
AI only stated what Amy was afraid to say out loud
Warner Brothers beware! Your animation is now considered rude, crude, lewd and is the original deep fake. Prepare for the worst!
No! No a thousand times. Trump and the Republicans must defeat this no-fake bill. It is guaranteed to open the door to online censorship again.
Plus, Amy is just mad that the video expressed some truths that the Ds want suppressed.
Just like their Islamofascist/Muslim supremacist allies and brethren, the vile Dhimmi-crats have no sense of humor, and, will not countenance any mockery.
The Dhimmi-crats can bloviate and engage in histrionics about “deepfakes” all they want — this type of stuff is satirical content that is clearly protected speech under the First Amendment.
If you don’t want cartoons to be made of your politicians, don’t elect Simpsons.
“Klobuchar noted that her experience “does not in any way represent the gravest threat posed by deepfakes” and pointed to other recent examples, including when someone used AI to pretend to be Secretary of State Marco Rubio and contacted various high-level government officials.”
Oh for heaven sakes, you don’t need high tech to scam the elite-yet-stupid. John Podesta, Clinton’s chief of staff, gave up his Google password to a high-school-quality phishing email, resulting in Russian cyberhackers sucking down 50,000 of his emails. The Mexican president took a meeting with Lyndon LaRouche because he THOUGHT LaRouche was a high DNC official.
If you think she’s really opposed to this because she’s afraid people will think its real, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.
She’s opposed to this because it’s freaking hilarious and makes fun of her.
It got a million views not because people actually believed that it was her, but because they knew it wasn’t and found it really, really funny satire.
With that said, I am concerned about what the future holds. As AI videos get better and harder to detect, I can see them being used by the left maliciously for political gain.
For example: What would have happened to Brett Kavanaugh during the confirmation hearings if Ford had suddenly “found” an old, grainy video recording of the imaginary parties she attended with Kavanaugh?
Half the country was calling him a rapist just on the word of a leftist activist who couldn’t even get her friends to back her story up…how many would have jumped ship on him had she had better “evidence”?
The left is not shy about using dirty tricks to try to undermine their opposition. It’s just a matter of time before the “deepfake video” is added to their repertoire.
And I don’t know that it can be stopped even if we wanted to. You can’t put the genie back into the bottle.
“The left is not shy about using dirty tricks to try to undermine their opposition. It’s just a matter of time before the “deepfake video” is added to their repertoire.”
The point to consider is that foreign actors are definitely not shy about using tactics like this, and US laws won’t do diddly squat against it. So stop wasting time dreaming up new laws, they are not the solution you are looking for.
A better response would have been to simply decline to comment since she hadn’t seen the video in question: “I’m not going to comment about a video I haven’t seen.” (Even though both quotes attributed to her are accurate and not at all outrageous. Oh, wait, she’s a politician.)
Any time a politician touts “common sense” anything, beware of infringements of your rights coming right behind. What legislation is she going to craft that doesn’t risk running afoul of the First Amendment?
Wasn’t this settled when Jerry Falwell sued Larry Flynt over the fake Compari ad 40 years ago?
Here is the problem with these laws.
The government is forbidden to make them.
I can draw a cartoon of anyone doing anything I like. I can make it an animation. I can post it online.
Even if it’s porn.
The only thing I have to be careful about is using the name of the person I drew.
With digital tools I can make that cartoon look very real–almost photorealistic.
But it’s still just an animation.
And the government is expressly forbidden to make laws abridging the freedom of speech.
Even if it’s revenge porn images.
As l9ong as it’s fake, there’s not a damned thing they can do.
Unless it contains a drawing of a child.
Nobody has ever explained this to my satisfaction.
