YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Big Tech is spending millions to shape the future of AI—but what are they trying to control, and why now?

Former Congressman and Americans for Responsible Innovation President Brad Carson joins us to break down the growing fight over AI regulation, including the role of companies like Meta, the influence of Mark Zuckerberg, and the stakes for jobs, energy costs, and national security. As tech giants invest heavily to influence policy ahead of the 2026 elections, the battle over artificial intelligence is quickly becoming a battle over political power.

Then: a deep dive into money and influence in Washington.

ProPublica reporter Cory Johnson joins us to discuss new reporting on Trump administration financial disclosures, revealing how industry ties, private equity, and political power intersect behind the scenes. What do more than 3,200 disclosure records tell us about corruption, conflicts of interest, and the revolving door between government and business?

Two conversations. One theme: who controls AI, who controls Washington—and who pays the price.
