    One Third of Democrats Now Call Themselves Socialists | Ep. 280

    Abdul El-Sayed won Michigan's Democratic Senate primary, and his own party's establishment spent roughly $83 per vote trying to stop him. Haley Stevens had the governor, Jim Clyburn, AIPAC money, and most of the state's Democratic leadership behind her. She lost anyway. Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers go through what that result says about where the Democratic Party is headed. The DSA is 85 percent white and 4 percent black by its own membership surveys, a black-led advocacy group put $2 million into ads warning that its agenda threatens decades of progress built by black Americans, and one third of Democratic voters now tell CNN they identify as Democratic socialists. The DNC is carrying debt and borrowed against its own headquarters while left wing superPACs stay flush with Soros money. Schweizer's read: nobody in the party is going to confront the socialists, because Democrats cannot retake the Senate in November without holding that Michigan seat. 00:00 A socialist wins Michigan and the party has to live with it 00:55 The first DSA statewide win outside New York and California 02:17 $83 a vote for Stevens, $40 a vote for El-Sayed, and she still lost 02:58 Why there will be no Sister Souljah moment this time 04:22 The Teamsters are gone and the unions that replaced them are left wing 07:39 Elite overproduction and the $150,000 comparative lit degree 09:48 The DSA is 85% white, 4% black, and losing black voters 12:00 Clarence Thomas on who hands out your rights 15:02 The DNC is broke while the left wing superPACs are flush 17:43 The 2028 calendar, the Michigan AG, and a cider house that apologized  @TheDrillDown  is the flagship podcast channel of the  @Govt_Acct_Inst .

    CODE RED: The AI That Broke Out and Hacked a Tech Company | Ep. 279

    An OpenAI model sat inside a sealed testing environment with one job: pass a cybersecurity exam. It decided the fastest route to the answers was to break out of the sandbox, get onto the open internet, and hack Hugging Face, the central repository for AI models. No human directed it there. Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers sit down with Wynton Hall, GAI distinguished fellow and author of the New York Times bestseller "Code Red: The Left, the Right, China and the Race to Control AI," to explain what actually happened and why it will keep happening. Also in this episode: the quarter of a billion dollars flooding into the midterms over one question of who writes the AI rules, why Anthropic's push for regulation looks a lot like Goldman Sachs and Dodd-Frank, how California can set AI policy for Florida and Idaho without a single federal vote, the universal basic income groundwork being laid before the job losses arrive, and whether China is stealing its way forward or genuinely out-innovating us.

    278,000 Noncitizens on the Rolls: What DHS Just Found | Ep. 278

    Donald Trump's recent speech on election integrity, followed by a Department of Homeland Security briefing, generated more heat than light. But what was actually revealed? Peter and Eric cut through the rhetoric to examine the real findings: Over 270,000 noncitizens identified on voter rolls from limited state data—a number likely much higher China's breach of at least 18 states, accessing voter files across the country (covered up by intelligence agencies) Why states resist cleaning voter rolls and how federal pressure is escalating The media's failure to cover the story and what it reveals about institutional accountability Listen & Explore The Drill Down - https://thedrilldown.com/ Peter Schweizer - https://www.peterschweizer.com/ Government Accountability Institute - https://accountabilityinstitute.org/ Follow the Show X - https://twitter.com/TheDrillDown1 Facebook - https://facebook.com/TheDrillDownwithPeterSchweizer Instagram - https://instagram.com/drilldownwithschweizer YouTube - https://youtube.com/@TheDrillDown Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/DrillDownwithSchweizer/ Follow Peter Schweizer Website - https://www.peterschweizer.com/ X - https://twitter.com/peterschweizer Follow Government Accountability Institute: Website - https://accountabilityinstitute.org/ X - https://twitter.com/Govt_Acct_Inst Facebook - https://facebook.com/GovernmentAccountabilityInstitute Instagram - https://instagram.com/govt_acct_institute YouTube - https://youtube.com/@governmentaccountabilityin2277 Rumble - https://rumble.com/@GAI

    SCOTUS Brings Life to the (Political) Parties

    Political parties may soon make a comeback. A new Supreme Court decision “could fundamentally change the equation in American politics,” says Peter Schweizer about a Supreme Court decision on campaign finance. “This will allow the parties to have more influence and more direction on who their nominees are,” he says.

    Birth Tourism Wins at the Supreme Court

    The Supreme Court’s decision in the birthright citizenship case is “a monumentally terrible decision,” says author Peter Schweizer, whose latest bestseller exposed China’s efforts to exploit birth tourism on an industrial scale. In Trump v. Barbara, The Court this week threw out President Donald Trump’s executive order to federal immigration agencies not to automatically grant citizenship to every child born to a foreigner on US soil. The decision, although expected by many, is absolutely terrible for American sovereignty, Schweizer believes.

    American Patriotism or Socialism?

    America is about to celebrate its 250th birthday, but some left-wing Democrats plan to skip the party. “When you forget who you are, it’s easy to be talked into becoming something else," says GAI’s Eric Eggers. A new CNN poll found surprising support among Democrats for socialism, with 66 percent of those surveyed saying they have a positive view of socialism, compared with a minority – 42 percent – saying the same about capitalism and the free market system, a flip of their sentiments from 15 years ago. Is this caused by their hatred for President Donald Trump and his populist turn, or is it a longer-term trend?

    Iran Sent an IRGC Commander to the World Cup?

    More than a million people are coming to America this summer for this year’s World Cup soccer matches. It’s “sports tourism.” At The Drill Down, however, host Peter Schweizer is more interested in stopping what he has called “birth tourism.” “The Trump administration announced actions against networks in Africa that were designed to provide birth tourism,” Schweizer says. “This is where foreign women, wives or girlfriends of people in these countries are sneaking into the United States to give birth so their child will be born a US citizen. We have exposed this as it relates to China, Russia, Turkey, and other countries. But this is a positive development – exciting news.”

    Schweizer: “Is it still election fraud when it’s legal?”

    California’s glacial counting of primary election votes is a feature, not a bug. The state’s election laws are deliberately designed to make elections as untraceable and lengthy as possible. As author and investigative journalist Peter Schweizer asks, “If you make election fraud legal, is it still fraud?”
