Italian PM Giorgia Meloni shares spicy AI photo of herself as she blasts misinfo — but admits it ‘improved me quite a bit’
NY Post ^ | May 6, 2026 | Jared Downing

An X user posted the photo of the 49-year-old politician posing on a bed wearing a skimpy slip, blasting Italy’s first woman prime minister as “shameful.”

Meloni shared a screenshot of the post on Tuesday with an assurance that the photo is indeed fake — albeit fabulous.

“Several fake photos of me are circulating, generated with artificial intelligence … I must admit that whoever created them, at least in the attached case, has also improved me quite a bit,” wrote the politician, who was elected in 2022.

She went on to warn against ne’er-do-wells who use artificial intelligence to dupe voters, condemning all such material, however sexy.

“Deepfakes are a dangerous tool because they can deceive, manipulate, and strike anyone. I can defend myself. Many others cannot,” she wrote.

Meloni is a conservative who ran on an “Italy first,” tough-on-immigration platform.

Women with intelligence and power are sexy for men???


The reality: Men would rather date their secretaries.

She's pretty hot for her age... And like any woman... She is probably flattered with all the attention.

Good for her... Brains and sexiness go together, and a lot of Conservative woman tend to be hot.. Especially when compared with these leftist Democrat lunatics...

Both men and women are diverse. Intelligence in women is sexy for many men, but not for all.

The thing isn’t symmetric. Men would like women to be beautiful (for their age). Women will sometimes find a man attractive who looks and acts strong even though not good looking. Think of Charles Bronson.

Thinking of Giorgia Meloni, she’s the total package.

“Intelligence in women is sexy for many men”


“Many”? No, not true at all, even according to your gutter-level psychobabble link. Intelligence in women is repulsive to men. The “girlboss” narrative is big con job that goes against human nature and instinct. Women know that by strategically downplaying their intelligence in dating to avoid intimidating men, that’s a fact. You yourself admit that “the thing is not symmetric”, so what’s the point to argue that intelligence is valued the same by men and women?

Let’s be honest, what is sexy in a woman is her youth, femininity, physique and figure. You may find Meloni is sexy because of her look, her intelligence (you know nothing about her intelligence, you just made claims) and her power (?!?), more so than a young and good-looking waitress but you would be an exception, not the rule.

“Genetic assortative mating [throughout the animal kingdom, not merely among humans] is well studied and documented.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assortative_mating

“Why do we pick similar mates, or do we?”

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8610703/

Having talked about the variety of things that are attractive in women, I mentioned above that men tend to be attracted to certain things more so than women; and, women to certain other things more so than men. I said this is a prior post. Perhaps this is something of a middle ground between what you perceive to be my summary of the findings of research and your view (or, what appears to be your view) that men are only attracted by looks.

“Female attraction and male attraction can be quite different in terms of what they find appealing in a potential partner. While both genders may be drawn to physical attractiveness, women often place more emphasis on emotional connection, intelligence, and sense of humor. On the other hand, men may prioritize physical appearance, youthfulness, and fertility in a partner.”

What are you 9n about? She has made curbing illegal immigration a signature priority

Italy has deepened agreements with Tunisia (multiple visits and funding packages, e.g., €105 million in aid/credits tied to migration control) and renewed the Libya memorandum. These aim to reduce departures through funding, training, and cooperation with local authorities. Similar efforts target other routes.

In February 2026, the government approved measures including a “naval blockade” framework. This allows stopping/diverting migrant vessels during “exceptional migratory pressure,” national security threats, or terrorism risks, redirecting them to third countries. It also strengthens anti-smuggler penalties, accelerates deportations (especially for criminals), and includes other enforcement tools.

Extended detention times for those awaiting deportation (up to 18 months), restrictions/fines on NGO rescue ships (e.g., limits on multiple rescues), construction of more detention centers, and emphasis on swift returns.

Sea arrivals dropped substantially under her policies. From a 2023 peak of ~157,000–158,000, numbers fell to around 66,000 in 2024 (roughly 60% reduction) and continued lower trends into 2025 (e.g., ~66,000 reported for 2025 in some summaries, with early 2026 figures also down).

Expulsion orders issued are much higher (tens of thousands), but execution lags. The government highlights growth in returns alongside the sharp drop in new sea arrivals (~60% reduction in 2024 vs. 2023 peak).

This is not a general amnesty or regularization of people already illegally present in Italy

The quotas primarily target new legal entries from abroad, with priority often for citizens of countries with migration cooperation agreements

Well, I guess that’s okay then. I’m sure they’ll fit right in in Italy.

“These include countries such as Albania, Algeria, Bangladesh, Egypt, India, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Senegal, Sri Lanka, Tunisia, Ukraine, and others.”

I didn’t say anything of what you are implying.

All I said is that this is NOT a “get in free” pass for the illegals.

Right. She’s going to import them LEGALLY, instead of them coming in ILLEGALLY. Five hundred thousand(!!) are coming from mostly the same shithole countries you don’t want them to come from.
