 "'No one is above the law': Trump posts AI-generated video of Obama’s ‘FBI arrest’")
US President Donald Trump escalated his attacks on Barack Obama on Monday by posting an AI-generated video that shows the former President being arrested by FBI agents in the Oval Office — the same room he once occupied.
The digitally altered video, shared on Trump’s Truth Social platform, opens with Obama saying, “especially the President is above the law,” followed by a montage of various US leaders asserting, “no one is above the law.” The scene then shifts to a fabricated sequence of two FBI agents handcuffing Obama, while Trump watches from the sidelines with a smile. The clip ends with a fake shot of Obama in an orange jumpsuit behind bars.

Trump posted the video without any disclaimer clarifying it was fictional — a move slammed by critics and media watchdogs as “deeply irresponsible” and potentially dangerous, especially in a politically charged climate.
The provocative post comes weeks after Trump accused Obama of orchestrating “high-level election fraud.” It also follows recent explosive claims from US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who alleged that senior Obama-era officials engineered the Trump-Russia collusion narrative after the 2016 election to undermine Trump’s presidency. Gabbard, who called for a trial of the former administration, claimed to have “striking and overwhelming” evidence of misconduct.
“The American people will finally see how powerful figures in the Obama administration allegedly politicised intelligence in 2016 to fuel what became a years-long coup attempt against Donald Trump,” Gabbard said on X (formerly Twitter).

The document states that before the 2016 election, US intelligence agencies consistently assessed that Russia was “probably not trying to influence the election through cyber means.” A December 8, 2016 draft of the President’s daily brief also concluded that Russian cyber activity “did not impact recent US election results.”
