He got dangerously close to the President and top administration officials, mocking the 'insane' lack of security at the Washington Hilton. Even with Secret Service, metal detectors, and layers of protection for the most powerful people in America, a determined attacker nearly breached the perimeter. These facts have led Jarred Weisfeld, CEO of Objective Entertainment, President of Start Publishing, and parent leading a growing school safety movement, to ask the question: If the President of the United States and high-level officials aren't fully safe in a heavily guarded ballroom... how vulnerable are our children sitting in classrooms every single day? Jarred is scheduled to join me to discuss that question. While America is racing to embrace the AI revolution, local communities are being forced to host its heavy physical infrastructure — massive data centers that devour electricity, water, and peace of mind while delivering subsidies and dependence. This isn't abstract tech progress. It's a defining political and moral issue: ordinary towns are subsidizing trillion-dollar companies, absorbing real-world harms, and laying the groundwork for an economy that replaces human labor and independence with managed access and centralized control. Jeff Dornik, founder and CEO of Pickax and host of The Jeff Dornik Show, is scheduled to join me to discuss the dark side of the AI boom.
