When it comes to journalistic ethics—or the complete lack thereof—former CNN host Jim Acosta has sunk to a new low. In a move that can only be described as grotesque, Acosta recently conducted an “interview” with an AI-generated version of Joaquin Oliver, one of the victims of the tragic 2018 Parkland shooting. This wasn’t just a tasteless gimmick; it was a calculated propaganda stunt designed to push the left’s radical gun control agenda.
What on earth is this demonic madness?
Acosta got fired from CNN, so now he’s “interviewing” scripted AI chatbot holograms of dead people which are pre-programmed to agree with him.
Absolute insanity. https://t.co/j4qsTSThos

The so-called “interview” was nothing short of a macabre spectacle. Acosta spoke to the digital ghost of a dead teenager as if it were a real person, even asking for its “thoughts” on gun violence. The AI-generated Oliver predictably parroted leftist talking points, declaring, “I believe in a mix of stronger gun control laws, mental health support, and community engagement.” Acosta, playing along with this dystopian charade, enthusiastically responded, “I think that’s a great idea, Joaquin.”

This is the same liberal media that constantly lectures Americans about “misinformation” and “ethical journalism.” Yet here they are, exploiting the memory of a murdered child to push their political agenda. There’s no depth to which they won’t stoop. The fact that Acosta and his enablers thought this was acceptable reveals just how far detached they are from basic human decency.
While the left engages in such ghoulish theatrics, President Donald Trump continues to deliver real solutions. Under his leadership, America saw historic economic growth, strengthened borders, and a focus on mental health—actual measures that address the root causes of violence. Unlike the liberal media, which thrives on emotional manipulation, Trump prioritizes action over hollow symbolism.

The contrast couldn’t be clearer. The left would rather resurrect the dead through AI than have an honest debate about crime, mental health, and the failure of progressive policies. Meanwhile, Trump stands as a bulwark against this kind of manipulative nonsense, fighting for common sense and American values.
