"Soulless, mindless entities": Trump shares QAnon conspiracy theory suggesting Biden is a clone
Posting to Truth Social late Saturday night, Donald Trump boosted a claim that former President Joe Biden was a clone. "There is no #JoeBiden - executed in 2020," the reshared post reads. "#Biden clones, doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see. #Democrats don't know the difference." The claim that body doubles or clones have replaced some celebrities for nebulous and nefarious reasons holds some purchase among members of the far-right. And to give some credit to Trump, it's entirely possible that he skimmed the text and thought it aligned with his frequent claims that Biden was puppeteered throughout his second term. The president has been amplifying right-wing internet conspiracies for years. He gave subtle nods to QAnon, the online cult that believes Trump will usher in a great "storm" that will cleanse sex traffickers and child abusers from positions of power in the United States, while campaigning for a second term. His campaign elevated unfounded beliefs about gang and cartel activity in the country and raised the profile of an entirely fabricated claim that Haitian immigrants in Ohio were eating local pets. In the latter case, Trump's insistence that recently resettled Haitian immigrants were "eating the cats" and "eating the dogs" led to bomb threats in the city of Springfield. Still, delving into talks of cloning grown humans — something that is not scientifically possible in the present — is a big step into the murk of the GOP's tin-foil fringe.

Metazoa Announces Updates to Snapshot on Salesforce AppExchange
Complex org splits and clones that once took months can now be completed in just a few days SAN FRANCISCO, May 13, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Metazoa today announced a major update to Snapshot on Salesforce AppExchange, the leading enterprise marketplace for partner apps and experts. The new release empowers Salesforce Administrators to split, clone, or merge complex production environments in just a day or two. This advancement in platform agility is powered by specially constructed placeholder components called Shell Assets, which bypass metadata dependencies. The two-stage deployment process enables Administrators to rapidly bootstrap destination environments and then deploy the real metadata without triggering dependency errors. Snapshot with Shell Assets is now available on the AppExchange. In the first stage, specially constructed components are deployed to the target org. In the second stage, those shells are overwritten with the full source metadata, enabling a clean and accurate replication. With Shell Asset technology, Salesforce professionals can: Create a true metadata clone of any Salesforce org Complete org splits and clones in days instead of months Reduce cost and complexity by an order of magnitude Accelerate user acceptance testing (UAT) cycles Unlock platform agility and flexibility Comments on the News "We've broken through the deployment log jam," said Bill Appleton, CTO of Metazoa. "Today, a single Administrator can stand up a true metadata clone in just a day or two — a task that once took months and large development teams. This innovation slashes time, cost, and complexity for our customers and partners." This technology lays the foundation for a general-purpose algorithmic solution to the deployment problem. By combining shell assets with advanced metadata dependency analysis, Metazoa can eliminate deployment errors at scale, unlocking new possibilities for DevOps, continuous delivery, and release automation. Salesforce AppExchange, a leading enterprise marketplace for partner apps and experts, empowers companies, developers and entrepreneurs to build, market and grow in entirely new ways. Since its launch in 2006, the platform has grown to include more than 8,000 apps and experts, with over 13 million customer installs.
