President Trump let his wife Melania co-sign legislation Monday to outlaw artificial intelligence-generated porn with real people’s faces — moments after claiming that Russian president Vladimir Putin had gushed about the first lady during a high-stakes phone call about the Ukraine war.
The Take It Down Act, which spurred the first lady to make a rare trip to Capitol Hill to lobby lawmakers earlier this year, criminalizes the distribution of non-consensual intimate imagery — including “revenge porn” that features real images and artificial intelligence-generated photos and videos.
After Trump, 78, signed the legislation, he passed the bill and a pen to his wife and asked for her signature in a reflection of her advocacy.
“She deserves to sign it,” the president said, adding that “America is blessed to have such a dedicated and compassionate first lady.”
Melania Trump is believed to be the first first lady to sign a piece of legislation alongside a sitting president.
“This legislation is a powerful step forward in our efforts to ensure that every American, especially young people, can feel better protected from their image or identity being abused,” said Melania Trump, 55.
“Artificial intelligence and social media are the digital candy for the next generation — sweet, addictive and engineered to have an impact on the connectivity development of our children,” she added. “But unlike sugar, these new technologies can be weaponized, shape beliefs and sadly, affect emotions.”

I suspect Dr. Jill signed many many more bills using Joe’s name or maybe his autopen.
I kinda have a problem with the first lady (any first lady) signing bills with the president. But I figure it’s merely a symbolic act and so that’s that.
This legislation will cause trouble in a few years, guaranteed. We need to watch this one very carefully, so that it doesn't impinge on satire and similar uses of this technology.
This violates my 1st Amendments Rights! How else can I get even with that girl that broke my heart in sixth grade? I can’t remember her name but if I could . . . .
Her name doesn't matter. Do you remember what her boobs looked like?
I never got to see them. I offered to take my shirt off and show her mine if she’d reciprocate. No dice. I cried for a week.
They should outlaw those Trump baby balloons, too.
This is one of those laws that sounds like a good idea, but will be used in unintended ways.
Democrats are saddened…
Ah well, buck up, after all, it was sixth grade, there may not have been much to get excited about. Besides, that would have been jailbait if you'd been successful, so thank your lucky stars that she refused.
Now stop thinking about it, you dirty old man! :-)
Camel's nose... tent... some assembly required...
Oh our congressional bills are soooo holy that we shouldn’t let the first lady near
We must remember this is such a sacred event...like all the bills Biden or Obama signed.
Spare me your outrage
Give me a break!
There are hundreds of laws that may be misused. So let’s not try to do anything decent because later some may misused it.
So just stay in your intellectual ivory tower and let no law pass until it’s perfect now and in the future.
It’s nice to see the First Lady for any reason.
I have not seen her at a function for several weeks, maybe not since the Easter Egg Roll.
I can’t remember her name but if I could . . . .
Mulva?
Oh...the demands for perfection...oh, it’s just symbolism!
This is transparent and it’s the president’s signature that counts
Instead of giving Melania credit and see this positively...freeprs want to pontificate and demand everything be done just so.
Couldn’t wait to rain on trump’s parade...could you.
Just wait a few more hours and the media will do your work for you..maybe even use your oh so brilliant warning words.
I agree.
Tough luck.
