Artificial intelligence isn’t just a technological breakthrough—it’s a global power struggle shaping the future of jobs, politics, and national security.

In this episode, Wynton Hall joins the show to discuss his new book Code Red: The Left, The Right, China, and the Race to Control AI, breaking down why AI is no longer just a tool—but a form of political and economic power.

From the rapid rise of ChatGPT and transformer technology to the growing concerns over bias in large language models, Hall explains how AI is already embedded in everyday life—even when most Americans don’t realize it. He also outlines the biggest risks ahead, including job displacement, misinformation, AI “hallucinations,” and the erosion of critical thinking.

The conversation dives deep into the geopolitical stakes, exploring why the U.S.-China AI race could rival the nuclear arms race—and how technologies like recursive self-improvement could reshape military dominance. Plus, a closer look at data privacy, surveillance concerns, and how governments and tech companies may influence what information users see.

Key topics include:


The hidden political bias inside AI systems


AI’s impact on jobs, education, and society


The growing threat of deepfakes and misinformation


China’s AI ambitions vs. U.S. innovation


Data privacy, surveillance, and security risks


Why AI could redefine the global balance of power

As AI continues to accelerate, this episode offers a critical look at what’s coming next—and what it means for individuals, families, and the future of freedom.

What do the fall of Venezuela’s Maduro regime and the war with Iran mean for China?

On this episode of The Truth with Lisa Boothe, Lisa is joined by China expert and bestselling author Gordon Chang to break down the geopolitical ripple effects of Operation Epic Fury and President Trump’s foreign policy moves.

Chang explains how China has relied on Iran and Venezuela as strategic proxies, why Chinese weapons and defense systems have failed against U.S. and Israeli forces, and how losing discounted oil from those regimes could hit China’s struggling economy.

They also dive into the biggest question: Does this make China more or less likely to invade Taiwan? Chang analyzes Xi Jinping’s political vulnerabilities, the turmoil inside China’s military leadership, and the growing risk of conflict with the United States.

Plus, they discuss China’s surveillance state, potential internal unrest, and why this moment could be a turning point in the global balance of power.

How is the war with Iran impacting global oil prices—and could the Strait of Hormuz trigger the next energy crisis? In this episode, Lisa sits down with former U.S. Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette to break down the extreme volatility in the oil markets, the risks facing global shipping, and how energy traders are trying to price uncertainty during a geopolitical conflict.

Brouillette explains why oil prices surged from the mid-$70s to $120 in just hours, how the Trump administration’s proposed $20 billion tanker insurance backstop could stabilize shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, and why the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at a dangerously low level. He also reflects on how deregulation during the Trump administration helped make the United States a net energy exporter and what that means for energy security today.

The conversation also explores the global implications of bringing Venezuelan oil back into the market, China’s reliance on discounted energy, and how geopolitical shifts could reshape the world’s energy supply. Plus, Brouillette discusses the massive power demand coming from AI and data centers, why nuclear energy may be the key to meeting future electricity needs, and how cybersecurity and quantum computing could transform energy infrastructure.

Topics covered include:


Why oil prices are swinging wildly during the Iran conflict


The strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz


Trump’s tanker insurance plan and global shipping risks


The state of the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve


Energy independence and deregulation under the Trump administration


Venezuelan oil and China’s discounted energy supply


The massive energy demand from AI and data centers


Why nuclear power could be critical for America’s energy future

A must-listen for anyone following energy markets, geopolitics, oil prices, and the future of global energy security.
