Indiana GOP senator causes uproar with AI images of himself clobbering Santa — then calls critics ‘snowflakes’!

An Indiana state senator sparked an uproar online after posting AI-generated images of himself clobbering Santa Claus in front of cheering fans on Christmas day — then mocked outraged critics as “snowflakes.”

Sen. Chris Garten, a two-term Republican, shared four faux photos to his official X page of him in a sleeveless suit pummeling, kicking, and body slamming a terrified St. Nick in a crazed beatdown on the steps of the Indiana State Capitol as onlookers celebrated and waved “Garten for Indiana” signs.

Another snap shows the Senate Majority Floor Leader riding a reindeer in a bare-armed Santa outfit and sunglasses, flexing a comically jacked bicep in victory.
