Le PP crée avec l'IA de fausses vidéos de socialistes ou d'ex-socialistes admettant des crimes

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez appeared on the television show La Revuelta hosted by comedian David Broncano to discuss his strategy for the upcoming general elections scheduled for November 29, 2026. During the interview, Sanchez addressed housing policy, the political crisis in Ceuta, and ongoing judicial proceedings involving himself, his brother David Sanchez, his wife Begoña Gomez, and former transport minister Jose Luis Abalos. He also shared anecdotes regarding his interactions with international leaders, including US President Donald Trump and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Sanchez stated that he manages public pressure through meditation rather than therapy, noting that while some people visit psychologists, that is not his case. He expressed confidence in winning the election and increasing his party’s seat count, attributing this optimism to the magic of politics and asserting that citizens have not yet fully voiced their opinions. The appearance coincided with a heated pre-campaign period marked by the approaching Black Friday shopping day on November 27. Political parties and merchants in major squares such as Plaza de Catalunya, Sol, and Maria Pita share a common goal of reaching this commercial peak, though for politicians, it marks the end of the electoral campaign. Sanchez noted that walking the streets of Ceuta or Gandia has become difficult due to the current climate. In contrast, actor Pablo Milanes described returning to the streets as simple. Sanchez discussed a recent NATO summit in Ankara where Erdogan presented him with a revolver engraved with his name, along with bullets. Sanchez stated the gift was placed in a section at the Moncloa palace reserved for gifts received by previous prime ministers. He suggested this might eventually happen with items related to former Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, whom Sanchez identified as the first former leader to contact him after the motion of confidence that brought Sanchez to power. When asked about the investigation into Zapatero, Sanchez deflected by referencing these diplomatic exchanges. He revealed that Zapatero had previously gifted him a chessboard. Sanchez also mentioned receiving a dog treat dispenser that plays the song Who Let the Dogs Out when opened, joking that it helps him remember his pet. Regarding his relationship with Donald Trump, Sanchez described a tense moment during a handshake but claimed their relations are progressing adequately. He recounted an incident at the Turkey summit where Trump allegedly called Spain a bad ally before shifting the conversation to golf, a sport Sanchez admitted he does not know well but follows slightly. Sanchez also praised actress Candela Pena, who appeared on the show, stating that he admires her greatly and that his wife admires her even more. Pena returned the compliment, referring to Sanchez and his wife affectionately and commenting on their eating habits. Meanwhile, the People’s Party launched a counter-campaign using artificial intelligence to create videos featuring socialist leaders admitting to crimes. This initiative followed a video released by Sanchez’s camp earlier in the week, which featured Sanchez saying I am left-handed and proud of it in response to insults from Argentine President Javier Milei. Milei had referred to Sanchez as an unpresentable dictator, liberty thief, and criminal thief during a recent visit to Spain. The new AI-generated video used the slogan Lerdos y orgullosos, contrasting with the socialists’ hashtag Zurdos y orgullosos. In the fabricated footage, Begoña Gomez appears to admit that having a chair because her husband is the president makes her left-handed. She is awaiting trial following an instruction led by Judge Juan Carlos Peinado. A simulated Jose Luis Abalos states that taking bribes and collecting illegal commissions makes one left-handed. Abalos was sentenced to twenty-four years in prison in the masks case. Former Prime Minister Zapatero is shown admitting to hiding jewelry in a safe deposit box, a detail linked to an investigation by Judge Calama regarding the rescue of the airline Plus Ultra. Leire Diez, known as the plumber of the PSOE, appears to admit to hiring thugs to remove a judge from the picture. She is under investigation by Judge Santiago Pedraz for attempting to derail probes into the PSOE environment, including investigations into the Prime Minister’s brother. Montse Minguez, a former spokesperson for the PSOE, is depicted admitting to using housing as a political weapon while concealing that her partner owns more than thirty apartments, citing the reason for her recent resignation. Finally, a simulated Santos Cerdan, former secretary-general of the PSOE, admits to taking kickbacks and belonging to a criminal band. Rebecca Torro, spokesperson for the Socialist Workers’ Party, condemned the People’s Party video as regrettable. She accused the opposition of maintaining a strategy based on personal disqualification, arguing that after four years of insults and lies, they are now using artificial intelligence because they have nothing else but permanent insult. The format of the AI video replicated the structure of the socialist clip, where Sanchez listed government initiatives such as raising pensions, extending parental leave, increasing the minimum wage, defending abortion rights, and opposing war, concluding that being left-handed, or socialist, is a source of pride and honor. The controversy highlights the escalating tensions ahead of the November 29 vote, with both sides utilizing digital media and public appearances to shape the narrative.
