Ben Shapiro: China will ignore AI safety, US must race ahead

Sep 19, 2026

The short clip from Ben Shapiro's show discusses US efforts to regulate or slow AI development for safety reasons, contrasting them with China's approach. Shapiro asserts China will pursue AI aggressively without regard for risks, rendering US self-restraint pointless. A guest notes China's history of initial permissiveness toward entrepreneurs followed by sudden restrictions, questions the current US lead (suggesting 6-9 months), and floats other ways to slow Beijing. The segment frames the issue as a zero-sum race where the US must 'go all the way.' Sourcing is conversational and draws on unnamed administration views and general knowledge of Chinese policy swings; no specific studies, benchmarks, or named experts beyond the guest. Throughline is skepticism of safety-focused pauses given geopolitical competition.

Mike Rogers blasts El-Sayed as anti-American in Ben Shapiro interview

Sep 3, 2026

Ben Shapiro interviews Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers about his tight race against Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed. Rogers argues El-Sayed is the most anti-American candidate in the country, citing his appearances with streamer Hasan Piker, past social media comments on 9/11, a planned speech at an ISNA conference days before the 9/11 anniversary, opposition to symbols like the Fourth of July, and support for Medicare for All. Shapiro and Rogers highlight Democratic reluctance to disavow El-Sayed except for Sen. John Fetterman and note crossover support from Jewish Democrats, Black voters, and figures like Van Jones. The segment ends with Rogers responding to Tucker Carlson's recent praise of El-Sayed as 'America First' and a call for donations to RogersForSenate.com.
