I need you to pay attention to this segment. This is important, folks. I told you many times how much I like X. I like social media platforms a lot. Not just X, but I go there. It's where I can communicate with you all. I, you know, I enjoy it. But as I've said often there, and I'm, I'm always going to give you both sides, there's ups and downs to it. The problem now with information out there all the time, quickly, is not all of it is accurate. And it's difficult to constantly fight an asymmetric battle like the Trump administration's forced into. I think back to like, go back to Biden and he's. Remember the whipping story at the border? Border Patrol agents were whipping. The story was total bullshit. Liberals still to this day believe that, that a bunch of Border patrol agents on horses were whipping people. It's a fake story. It's Totally, completely made up, 100% fabric it. But because of this open media environment, which is a good net positive thing. But there are some downsides. Lies travel around the world like that and they're almost impossible to stop. And liberals believe them because Apple News won't give them the other side. The problem, folks. And I got to be careful here. But it's important I get it out there. Foreign enemies of the United States absolutely know this. There are influence campaigns foreign governments are using to make sure to magnify division in the United States, not just across parties. Listen to me. But within parties as well. That's a fact. Deny it and you're going to make a fool of yourself. Now I have to use pretty much open source stuff here. I got to be careful about how deeply I dig into this. But when I talked about earlier in the show with Apple News, why there's a red world and a blue world and they both believe completely separate things. Now foreign governments want it that way and are amplifying that division to make sure those worlds never connect. And even within the red and blue world that they want to sit there and eat each other alive every day too. You see it through botting. You see it through the magnification of bullshit. New York Post put out a story about this yesterday, just citing their reporting. It's about leftist groups. You see how this happens? This is how they magnify division. New York Post, State Department identifies Code Pink and other far left groups as vectors of Chinese influence operations. They know under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy Sarah Rogers said partisan hacks spent years peddling the collusion hoax and turned a blind eye to the sprawling web of far left organizations who pushed the agenda of the ccp. She notes Code Pink and the People's Forum denigrate the United States, whitewash Marxism, run cover for China while enjoying an influx of cash from a donor network with connections to the ccp. Ladies and gentlemen, I tell you with a bevy of experience now in this space, both as a commentator and having been on the inside, it is far, far worse than this. This is just the stuff they can say publicly. So when you're on X or other platforms, they are great platforms. Rumble. I get it. Rumble as well. You know, I'm an investor there. I like free speech. People go on Rumble all the time. They say, I hate Dan Pacino. Good for you. That's what free speech is about. That is what free speech is about. But I just want you to understand every platform out there is dealing with this problem. I'm not telling you. I hate when people say like, you know, X isn't real life and no, it's real life. It's absolutely real life. There are people who love and hate what you did. That's a fact. But good chunks of it are not, are artificially driven to make sure that we are at each other's throats. My audience obviously given, you know, thank you to again the 73,000 people here right now and the millions who've watched the show. I've always been comfortable that you are a really smart audience who have the discernment to figure out what's real and what isn't. And I thank you for that. I appreciate it. Folks. I mentioned yesterday also the national security environment degrading quickly in this country. Thank God for President Trump to stop what was happening under Biden is very perilous. I don't want anyone to panic and I'm not here to be the panic show. Be prepared. You should always be prepared. Preparedness matters don't live, you know, if you put your, you know, you do the right thing and you put your life in the hands of God and Jesus, you're going to, you know, you're going to be okay in the end. I always say let your will be done, but you need to be prepared. God never told anyone to turn a blind eye to anything. Okay? Be prepared. The national security environment is perilous. The CCP and others are taking advantage of this, trying to drive a wedge in between the United States citizenry to make sure we eat each other alive. Yuri Besmanov style from the inside because they can't defeat us easily from the outside, so they want us to eat ourselves alive. Geek, can you pull up the drone story at the Wall Street Journal? I'll bring this up with Congressman Gill later as well. If you missed this Wall Street Journal story yesterday folks, you should check it out. Jillian K. Macquarie NATO has seen the future talking about war and is unprepared. A simulation of drone warfare shows how far the alliance has to go to learn the lessons of Ukraine Here. Quick note about this piece. They did a simulation about drones. NATO countries in warfare, what it would look like overall, quote, the results were horrible for NATO forces. The adversary forces were, quote, listen to this, able to eliminate two battalions in a day so that in an exercise sense, basically they were not able to fight anymore after that. The NATO side quote, didn't even get our drone teams. Stay on top of your government. Demand accountability, but pay very close attention to foreign influence campaigns designed to divide you because the threats out there, ladies and gentlemen, drones, the threats of AI getting out of control, the threats from hypersonic missiles, the threats from space are real. They are not artificial. And when you see them, you can't unsee them. I addressed it with Senator Tuberville yesterday. You know, I say to Paul all the time after you see this stuff, ignorance is bliss. Sometimes you can't go back and unsee it. I promised you yesterday too, I would address this AI blog piece that went out from a. Is it Matthew Schumer? Yeah, I think it's Matt Schumer. I don't know the gentleman. Never met him. This thing has gone nuclear. It is everywhere. He is a guy knee deep in this whole AI evolving process. He wrote this blog post about what's going on with AI now it is everywhere. Peggy Noonan wrote about it yesterday in the Wall Street Journal. It's all over social media. TikTok X. I saw people talking about it on Rumble. He's at Matt Schumer. S H U M E R. Is that an underscore at the end? It's a verified account and he's talking about that. Basically an AI that. Folks, we have a problem here. I love the productivity enhancement effects of AI. I'm not sure how the job environment's going to look. I addressed that yesterday. It hasn't had any effects yet. The job numbers went up, not down. Those are just numbers. I do numbers. Okay. Opinions are great, but they got to be backed up by numbers. But he notes that you don't understand, like keep this up guy. It's really important. Schumer addresses how, like the industrial revolution and electricity and other things, it took a while to implement that. You had to build the power lines, the generation, you had to build the coal fired power plants, the generator stuff. AI is evolving by the day, by the day. How quickly can you adapt when it's happening every day? He notes. In 2022, AI couldn't do in base, could do basic. Wait, scroll down again. Couldn't do basic arithmetic. By 2023, it could pass the bar exam. By 2024, it could write working software and explain graduate level science. By late 2025, some of the best engineers in the world said they'd handed over most of their coding work to AI, he notes, on February 5, 2026. Just a week ago, new models arrived that made everything before them feel like a different era. If you haven't tried AI in the last few months, he notes, what exists today would be unrecognizable to you. Folks, I. I have a lot of experience using AI. I'm not an AI developer. I don't pretend to be some super tech genius, okay? I'm not going to bullshit you. I use AI a lot because I'm very concerned about my health. Not a sob story, but, you know, I went through this whole cancer thing. Whatever. You get the point. Like it? Everything's good so far, but I'm very concerned about my health. I know I'm. I know I'm giving up a lot of privacy. You don't have to. I know a ton of you are going to send me. I get it. I understand. I just can't get dead, okay? I monitor my blood work. I take all these signetera Tests, these gallery blood work tests for cancer or Natera. I take these full body. I get these full body MRIs. I don't want to die. You don't either. When you get cancer, it scares the shit out of you. I poured this stuff into an AI system and I use it all the time. But I'm going to tell you something. I don't know what's going to happen with that. Is that out there in some ether. AI Ether is AI systems talking to each other. Like, hey, I think this is Dan Bongino. He'd asked some questions early on related to law enforcement. So he sounds like that FBI guy. Is this guy gonna die? You think he's gonna die? I don't know what's out there. Is it the brave new world? It's a trade off I'm willing to make because I don't want to die. I'm not suggesting that trade off is right for you. It's the same discussion we had yesterday in light of the Guthrie case about these nest and ring doorbells. You have to decide in the future not knowing, with AI, facial recognition, all this other stuff, where this stuff is ever going to go. Do you want to put one of these doorbells in front of your house? That super bowl commercial, what was it for ring with finding the dog? I got to tell you, it completely backfired. Scared the hell out of a lot of people. It didn't scare me because I figured they were already doing it and seeing from the other side the ability to use technology. Folks, you're going to have to make some very, very serious adult decisions moving forward about how much of your liberty you're willing to sacrifice for your own personal security. And you better hope and pray that the next FBI, CIA, dni, dea, irs, and all of them. Imagine the IRS with UNCONTROLLED AI going through every single expenditure you make, every single American would be in jail is attacking sheet. Oh, come on, really? Listen, cheating on your taxes is against the law. Tax avoidance has become like a national pastime. Those are two different things. Tax avoidance is legal. Using legal strategies. Is there a gray area? There's always a gray area. That's why lawyers and accounts make a lot of money. You don't think AI the government uses that? You're all going to be in jail, folks. The stuff is happening now, now, now, now. It's not happening tomorrow, it's happening now. These tools are out there. Cash and I told everyone and I hear a lot of commentary on TV and I don't like knocking other commentators, but some of these people don't know shit. I heard, you know, one of them a couple of days ago talking about all this AI stuff. Cash and I had very severe restrictions on the use of AI in criminal cases and how it was going to be used because there are issues. Gotta be careful, man. There's a lot going on, man, a lot, a lot going on behind the scenes. But you get bad actors in there, it's going to be real trouble. Ring doorbells, tax records. You pour this in, every single American would be a criminal. If you want AI to find something you did wrong, you've heard the example before. I hate using this example. But it matters. Everyone's ripped the mattress tag off. All right, whatever. That's probably an exaggeration. However, I promise you, you get AI pouring through tax records, going to ring doorbell records, and probing the Internet for every single thing you've ever posted on social media, Reddit, Tumblr, back in the day, everyone's going to be a criminal. Ups and the downs. There's going to be massive productivity enhancements. The wealth created from this is going to be like nothing you've ever seen. Your kids are going to live in a world where cancer is probably cured, where Alzheimer's, there's mitigation techniques. Your kids are going to live in a world where traffic patterns are instantly updated because of automatic and not even going to put their hands on the wheel all of a sudden. You're going to see traffic not dissipate, but significantly impact driverless cars, chemical sciences, materials, new materials you've never seen before that conduct electricity with almost no impedance whatsoever. Elan talking about space based data centers that use the power of the sun and don't need as much cooling. Your kids are going to be so rich. But let's not bullshit people. Your Kids are going to be living in a world where everybody is watching all the time. Everybody. You don't want them in handcuffs. Be very careful how you vote. All right. A couple of things I wanted to get to as well address this with, with Congressman Gail too, folks. We talked about a topic yesterday. It lit up the. I have. I. I get a lot of emails about the show. I got a ton on this. This is a very controversial topic, but I have to address it because the two are related. The filibuster and the SAVE Act. If we all can vote in elections we trust are free and fair. Free meaning people who are eligible to vote can vote. Obviously. Fair meaning who you voted for is who you voted for and the outcome is fair. Not hard to figure out if we can't trust that our elections are real. And the Democrats who said they were cheated out of every election ever until President Trump won and then it changed. How dare you guys talk about stolen elections. They're so full of shit. The SAVE act, where we'd implement national voter ID is unanimously supported by every racial demographic. Democrats, Republicans, everyone. The Democrats have out of arguments about it. If we don't have this, folks, if we don't have it, we're gonna be in a world of trouble going forward. Cuz the Democrats love cheating. They just do. They love open borders, they love the welfare state and they love cheating in elections. That's just a fact. The only way to get it passed is going to be to drop the filibuster. Listen to me. They are going to if they take power after the midterms. The Senate, remember this show. Guys, can you remember the Flag it? Have we done flag it yet? Chad, get on this. We need you guys. Flag it in the chat. What's the date today? February 13th. Is it Friday the 13th? Friday. Oh my gosh. Friday the 13th. Waiting for Jason Voorhees to pop in here. Flag it in the chat. Thank you. We haven't done that in a while. If the Democrats take power in the Senate, they are going to drop the filibuster within probably a couple of months.
