Trump posts AI video of Obama arrested by FBI, says no one above law

US President Donald Trump on Monday shared an AI-generated video of showing former President Barack Obama being arrested.

The video ends with shots of Obama dressed in an orange jumpsuit sitting, and pacing inside a jail.

The border is fortified. The economy is unleashed. The One Big Beautiful Bill is law. This is unapologetic, America-first leadership."
