Rushkoff sits down with Kat Tenbarage, (Founder, Spitfire News) to pull back the curtain on the intersection of AI, digital harassment, and political maneuvering. Together, they discuss Humans First: Is it a true bipartisan coalition or a strategic funnel for right-wing legislation?

They also explore:
- The economy of deepfakes: How non-consensual AI-generated content is being monetized and the role of major payment processors like Visa and MasterCard play in the ecosystem.
- Digital Violence: Why the "online isn't real" argument is dead and how digital radicalization leads to physical acts of terror.
- The Cost of Truth: The personal and legal toll of investigating influencer harm and the coordinated smear campaigns designed to silence independent journalists.
