Jon Herold covers a fresh batch of declassified handwritten FBI notes revealing discrepancies between what agents actually wrote during Michael Flynn's 2017 interview and the official report used to prosecute him, plus a John Solomon and Steve Bannon clip teasing another major document release timed to this week's GOP midterm convention. He spends a good chunk of the show digging into a striking story where several Anthropic AI researchers publicly warned that out of control AI could pose an extinction level risk within the decade, contrasting it with old Elon Musk interview clips swinging between casual fatalism about AI risk and optimism about AI solving human longevity. Other topics include record high diesel prices, a Missouri congressional map ruling, a $6 billion Treasury debt buyback operation, and some fun commentary on Apple's new foldable iPhone. Sponsor reads and a lively chat session round out a dense hump day show.
