... Biden administration officials unveiled “their plan to control AI through government regulatory capture.”

My ears always perk up when I hear that a lifelong Democrat has thrown his or her support behind President-elect Donald Trump. One of the biggest surprises of the 2024 election cycle was the sheer number of people who did just that.
Two key factors drove this shift. First, many working-class voters finally grasped that the Democratic Party, which they had blindly supported for decades, had abandoned them.
The second factor concerned Democrats at the opposite end of the economic spectrum — a group that included tech billionaires, hedge fund managers, and the ultrawealthy, many with direct access to the Biden White House. They saw that the line between democracy and authoritarianism had become blurred, or even erased in some instances, as party leaders shifted their focus from governance to the pursuit of power, showing a willingness to do whatever it took to acquire it and maintain it.
Marc Andreessen, co-founder of the venture capital firm a16z, was part of this second group. In a Tuesday interview with podcaster Joe Rogan, he exposed the Biden administration’s despotic plan to control artificial intelligence in the U.S. This bombshell revelation should have been front-page news last week; instead, it flew largely under the radar.
Andreessen told Rogan that he attended a series of White House meetings about the future of AI in the spring. During one session, Biden administration officials unveiled “their plan to control AI through government regulatory capture.” Horrified by the administration’s intentions, he walked out the door and endorsed Trump.
What had left the tech billionaire so spooked? Andreessen said, “The AI thing was very alarming. We had meetings this spring that were the most alarming meetings I’ve ever been in.”
He continued, “They were taking us through their plans, and it was – basically just full government – full government control. Like this sort of thing, there will be a small number of large companies that will be completely regulated and controlled by the government, they told us. They said don’t even start startups – there’s just no way that they can succeed – there’s no way that we’re going to permit that to happen.”
Rogan gasped.
But Andreessen wasn’t finished. “They said that this [control of AI] is already over. It’s going to be two or three companies and we’re just gonna control them and that’s that. Like this is already finished.”
Rogan asked, “When you leave a meeting like that, what do you do?”
Andreessen smiled and replied, “You go endorse Donald Trump!”
Andreessen also claimed the Biden administration has “debanked” more than 30 tech startups, including cryptocurrency companies. (Debanking occurs when a bank abruptly closes an individual’s or organization’s account or refuses to open one for a new customer. This usually happens when the person or entity is perceived as a risk—whether “legally, financially, or to the bank’s reputation.”)
The use of debanking as a control mechanism began under the Obama administration. It was called “Operation Choke Point.” The government began debanking “marijuana businesses, escort businesses, and gun shops,” Andreessen said.
He walked Rogan through what debanking would look like for a business owner. “So, if you’re running a marijuana dispensary in 2012, then, guess what, you’re doing your business all in cash. Because you literally can’t get a bank account. You can’t get a Visa terminal. You can’t process transactions. … You’ve been sanctioned.”
“This administration [Biden] extended that concept to apply it to tech founders, crypto founders, and just generally political opponents,” Andreessen said. They use it “primarily against their political enemies and then to their disfavored tech startups. … We’ve had like 30 tech founders debanked in the last four years. It’s been a big recurring pattern.”
Maybe democRATs can be debanked too.

Who were supporting the rats.
One small correction: the demotards did not abandon the working class. Abandonment requires that they were once allies. Dems were never in the corner of the working class and were only using them.
I wouldn’t trust any of them. They will turn on anybody when it favors themselves. Slimeballs.
Bkmk
The original plan fabricated in around 2012 in Silicon Valley was to use AI to scan the internet looking for conservative thought and ideas and then identify them as hostile.
Until it was ready, the DNC setup troll farms using Obama’s database of hired bots.
Before 2016 election, AI became close to reality and they started closing down the Bot Farms. Trump’s election and his blocking of “Net Neutrality”, which was going to be its name, they had to delay closing the farms.
Everything was all setup and working until Biden-Harris lost.
Now the $$$ is gone, the bots are gone and AI can be a useful tool with restraint.
I know the above is very close to the truth as I was involved in some of the early work in 2015 and 2018.
Yep. Even individuals in those companies.
Textbook fascism.
I think you are misreading that; they were NOT supporting rats, which is why they were debanked.
Definitely worth the time to read. Thanks for sharing. 🙂👍
“ Textbook fascism.”
As always, the Democrats slime their opponents with what the Democrats actually are.
The Democrats have been fascists since Soros foisted Obama on us all. They’ve been working very hard since then to move from fascism to all out Nazism.
“Maybe democRATs can be debanked too.”
That would be the ONLY WAY to end De-Banking once and for all, or at least make it illegal.
If you haven’t listened to the Rogan/Andreeson interview IN IT’S ENTIRETY, stop whatever you’re doing and listen to it now.
It is the most chilling interview I have ever listened to, and at the tender age of 72 I’ve listened to quite a few.
As a side comment, the podcast demonstrates why the Legacy Media is dead and gone. I can listen to a three hour discussion where I learn an amazing amount of information.
Or I could head over to CNN and watch Jake Tapper pass a pine cone rectally.
I’d say that 90% of my political information comes from podcasts of one form or another.

I don’t know why anyone is surprised by this behavior from the democrats. Look what they did to president Trump and his supporters. They even attacked his lawyers. It’s this illegal behavior that is behind all the talk of Biden giving blanket pardons to everyone connected to his administration. What happens if that administration acted to harm the American people and the country? Will the pardons of a corrupt administration still protect the guilty? Joe Biden isn’t giving out pardons to help his son he is giving pardons to protect himself. Of course the media doesn’t want to talk about this. They are part of the conspiracy against the American people. The media should be taken down first.
Debanking has become a big problem with firearms and accessories. Some of the big banks will block you from using credit cards issued through them to buy guns or ammunition. You go to buy a new deer rifle and your credit card won’t work for the purchase because the see you’re at a sporting goods store and block it. All sanctioned by the democrats of course.
“...The Democrats have been fascists since Soros foisted Obama on us all. They’ve been working very hard since then to move from fascism to all out Nazism...”
^TRUTH^
All this evil BS started under “jug ears” control via of Soros.
Jug Ears, Soros, the RATs, and a handful of RINOS....ALL of em need to be gone for the political/govt scene....completely and forever.
The RAT party is NOT a friend of America or Her People.....communist basstids, they are.
It wouldn't be the first time. That's what happens when I multitask.
