So just give a speech about this. Is that to save mankind from AI, we need to outlaw everybody from making AI, except three to five tech companies who are the only ones who've ever lost control of AI. Four of the five tech companies whose names are being floated to be part of an absolute monopoly on AI have in either minor or major breaches lost control of their AI. Everybody else who now couldn't write or create AI has not. Does that make any sense to you? And when you start looking at the proposed legislation that Bernie Sanders has put forward, again, it has nothing to do with safety. It suspends antitrust rules to allow them to form a cartel with no competition. So if you want or need any kind of AI for your business wherever you have to buy it from them, but folks, that's not the worst part.

If you've got a product that theoretically could kill 10%, chance will go rogue or something and wipe out humanity. If ever there was a need for product liability, this would be it, but guess what Sanders bill does. It erases liability for the AI companies in the cartel as a way of achieving safety. And if their AI does damage, guess who pays. Yep, you're looking at them in the mirror. The US taxpayer. So folks, at this point, there would be absolutely zero motivation to make your AI safe. Less motivation than there is today, which is exactly the point that Treasury Secretary has got best it made in an interview yesterday. Imagine these labs came out or one lab in specific, because sitting in Poye came out that there is a 10% chance of an extinction level event. But then the labs also said take the liability off of our hands.

And we will not do that. I am in agreement with a MIT professor who leads the AI lab, but they're a Daniel Hutton locker that it is humans who are responsible, not the AI, the hugging face incident. The bet is responsibility of the open AI management, not a bunch of agents. So what the president was saying is that we cannot the say, oh, we absolve you of responsibility and the government is going to take responsibility. These labs need to take responsibility for themselves. They can slow down anytime they want to. Meanwhile, before we turn over control of the algorithm, the control of everything we see, no, that influences us, our culture, maybe we should ask the question, how radical are the Democrats? Because the answer to that question keeps getting more and more frightening. So radical that a new poll shows that 59% of Democrats,

59% support a military coup to remove President Trump from power and assume control of the United States. Folks, 59%. Okay, why is that significant? Well, another poll that we talked about last week found that an identical percentage, 59% of Democrats say they identify as socialists. Now, they identify with the Democrats Socialists of America versus just 30% of Democrats who say, no, they don't. Folks, what makes this so crazy is that military coups are a feature of third world regimes. They're the kind of thing that happens after the public but in communists or socialists. And usually then the power lurches back and forth through violence between different factions. You'd prefer a military coup to the country we have, but folks, this poll got even crazier

with fully a third of Democrats saying that it would make them happy if President Trump was assassinated while speaking at a rally. 55% say they would find it a very positive development of President Trump, which is die overnight in his sleep. Folks, on the assassination part, we put another way. Well, a third of Democrats would like to see an assassinated live on television, you know, at a rally, only 32% are opposed to the President being murdered. I mean, folks, your mind is scrambled. But what we're not getting on our side, and I think it's because we don't consume the same social media, they do. We live literally in a different culture and a different country. We're not realizing how bad these people are is that they have an increasingly expansive tolerance for violence. Where's it coming from? Folks, it's getting worse and worse and worse. Like this, here's another sign. Something is very, very wrong headline.

New York Post, record number of college students say violence is okay to stop controversial speaker. More than half of college students that controversial speaker should be banned from their campuses and folks, this is according to an expansive six-year study of almost 300,000 college undergraduates by the foundation for individual rights and expression. They ask these same questions every year so they can track it and the results are getting increasingly terrifying. Like this, an astonishing 34% of students nationally believe violence is acceptable to stop a campus speech up from 20% in 2022. So folks, it's 20% one in five. It's say, yeah, we can use violence if we don't agree with what you say. In 2022, today it's 34%. Folks, it's only been four years. More than half of students, 54% support at least physically blocking others from attending a campus speech while almost three quarters, 71% call for shouting down a speaker.

Some examples of what college students believe you shouldn't be able to say abortion should be completely illegal. Only 40% of students believe speakers should be allowed to say that. Here's another one. Black Lives Matter is a hate group, which I think is pretty well proven. The percentage of students that would permit speakers to say it has fallen from one third to one quarter. Folks, where is this coming from? Same place all this tolerance for socialism is coming from again, folks. If you go back three years, a little over two years actually, the percentage of Democrats that identified as socialist was less than 21%. Today, it's 60. 60% identify as socialists. We had that poll last week in the battleground podcast. Well, that sentiment is coming from the same place as the sudden tolerance for an

I dare I say celebration of violence if you don't get your way. Hassan Piker and all of his knockoffs. Newshoes, new clothes, brand new grade, switched a Verizon to make sure their tech keeps up.

and other available in some areas, see plan for details. The guy has three million followers on Twitch, but he gets cut up and distributed so much in many videos that his followerships really probably a lot more than that. I've played the clips for you again and again. This is a guy who gave the speech to the college Democrats, the keynote annual address in DC a couple of months ago, wearing a Mao suit. This is a guy who regularly talks about violence and murder against people he disagrees with, namely Trump, capitalists. But folks, I want you to hear the casualness in this interview with Axios because it's jaw-dropping. Just a wake up call I think our side needs because folks as crazy as left is I don't think I've ever heard somebody speak about the mass murder of tens of millions of people with a smile on his face. Not an evil smile. That's the weird thing. Just a casual smile. I can see how kind of what we need to just get things right.

Take a listen. This is Hassan Piker's interview with Axios over the weekend. Again, this is the guy. He's not just some Twitch streamer. This is the guy who, when you get endorsed by him in a Democrat primary, you win. That's why both CNN and Fox News, who agree on nothing, agree that he is now the kingmaker. Above everyone else in the Democrat party. Now listen to this folks. Listen to him describe the murder of 10 million Chinese and folks that's not an accurate number. It's actually between 30 and 42 million. He only deals with the famine caused by Mao, which was of course deliberate. Mao had stolen land from farmers and land owners, killed a lot of them and those who didn't resist were put on big collective farms along with the peasants. Because of the agricultural practices they made mandatory, unworkable practices, by the way, tens of millions starved. So they're focusing on the famine,

which history is documented as forced for a very long time. The government wanted the lands. That's why they killed them through starvation. But folks, even putting that aside and assuming here as Piker does, that that was some sort of terrible accident. But Mao meant well. They don't address the three million executions ordered by Mao of his political enemies, including hundreds of thousands of right wingers. Those weren't third starvation. They were killed. Now listen to both the reverence, the casualness and the joy here about mass murder to achieve people's political lands. And you can see why the left is becoming so casual about violence. In fact, even hopeful for it.

It's horrifying. Well, do you believe it sounds like given, do I believe that it was intentional? No, I don't believe that it was intentional. I would say most a lot of times they are not intentional. But do you think overall given where China is now, it sort of sounds like you think the deaths were worth it in the end? I can't speak for that. I think Chinese people feel that way though. They see it as growing pains almost. I don't. I think it's crazy. I think it's a lot of unnecessary excess deaths that took place. In my 20 years of talk radio, that is one of the most jaw dropping clips I've ever heard. It's a great man of history. Of course, there were a lot of excesses. What do you mean by excesses? That's serious question for you. If you had power, you think he'd killed 10 million? I do. And I think he'd lose a single night's sleep over it. Axios and Piker continued.

Just to be clear, do you consider Mao a great leader? When I say Mao is a great leader, I mean, he's a great man of history. Okay. Yeah. Do you admire him? I think that there are things that Mao Zedong did that were unbelievably impressive. Being able to activate the peasant society that was living under horrifying conditions, like being slaughtered, being murdered, living under, you know, serf-like conditions, and giving them collective ownership over their own means of production, allowing them to control their own destiny to a certain degree, being able to overcome the Japanese occupation and the nationalist forces in the aftermath of that. These are, I mean, he was a very impressive military leader, absolutely. Folks, by the way, the biggest pack of lies. Folks, he didn't give them control over means of production. He rounded them up and imprisoned them on forced labor camps that happened to be farms stolen from farm owners. That's what the sun Piker calls giving them means of production.

I'm sorry, if you try to escape the farm that you've been given and you get shot, that's not giving someone means of production by the way, because they weren't allowed to leave, because they essentially were serfs and slaves under Mao. That's why they started to death. Those farms they were given as means of production were essentially forced labor camps. Folks, this is not just a twitch streamer. This is the guy who's captured the imagination of a generation, and God forbid we lose to them. In a typical election cycle, as it's happened for years, as power lurches between Republicans and Democrats. Again, do we even get it back if they win again? Or do we end up in the gulag or the forced labor camp?

Thanks for listening.

That's it. I gotta get T-Mobile. I don't even get reception in my apartment. This is why I'm mom's favorite. for details.
