Summary

Does Glenn actually agree with something Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has proposed? Glenn breaks down Sanders' recent “American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act,” what it will actually do, and where Sanders is right and wrong. Should the government own what is created using artificial intelligence? Glenn reacts to a recent clip from "The View," in which host Sunny Hostin laid out all the ways she believes Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner is a bad human but should be elected anyway. Host of "The Vinnie Penn Project” Vinnie Penn joins to discuss his memoir of working with Glenn Beck in the 1990s, called “A Tale of Two Talk Show Hosts: On the Air with Glenn Beck.” Learn more about your ad choices.
