Thanks very much for joining me.

I don't have to tell you, but we are living in unprecedented and dangerous times.

It seems that every day there is an action or a statement from the Trump administration that is grossly illegal,

crazy, vulgar, or all of the above.

In the midst of all of the chaos that we're seeing, I just wanted to say a few words to you about what I and my co-workers have been concentrating on.

And basically, what we are trying to deal with are some of the most important issues facing the American people,

in fact, the world, issues that in too many respects, Congress and the corporate media are not dealing with.

So let me just start off with Trump's authoritarianism.

I don't have to tell you

that in the White House today we have a president who is not only a pathological liar, but he is a narcissist,

a kleptocrat, and an extremely dangerous person.

He wants more and more power into his own hands and could care less about the Constitution of the United States,

the rule of law, common decency, or democracy.

And the fight against authoritarianism is a struggle that we are engaging in on a number of fronts.

Last month, I offered an amendment in the Senate that received 49 votes, all of the Democrats and two Republicans,

to rescind the $75 billion that ICE received as part of Trump's big,

beautiful bill, which in my view was the worst piece of legislation passed in the modern history of our country.

So we are trying to get money out of ICE so that they do not continue to occupy communities throughout this country.

And further, with your help, with many of you helping,

our campaign was able to raise $200,000 for some of the very courageous people in Minnesota and their organization.

who fought back against the ICE occupation and showed us what grassroots activism looks like.

And I should also tell you, obviously, that in preparation for the 2026 elections,

we are working really hard to support candidates all across the country who are standing up for working people.

And perhaps most importantly, we are going to do our best to make sure

that these elections are fair and are not designed by Republicans to retain control over the House and the Senate.

A lot that is going on

that worries me very much about their trying to create situations

where people do not have the opportunity to participate in a free and fair election.

And we've got to fight that.

And we are in a number of ways.

Further, we have to continue to deal with what I consider to be the most significant domestic issue of our period,

the moment that we're living in.

and that is the growth of oligarchy in the United States.

And sadly, this is an issue that many of my colleagues in the Congress prefer not to deal with for obvious reasons.

The corporate media, almost by definition, does not address it.

But I think ordinary Americans in their guts understand that never before in the history of our country have so few individuals

held so much wealth and so much power.

Today, with the top 1%, 1% owning more wealth than the bottom 93%,

we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.

While 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, the oligarchs are not only getting richer,

but importantly, they are increasing their power by buying up media.

I don't know if you've been following Larry Ellison and others buying up CNN,

buying up CBS, Bezos converting the Washington Post into a right-wing paper.

But it's not only their control of the media.

These guys are now making huge campaign contributions.

We're seeing it right now in the midterm elections, and we're going to see it more as these elections unfold.

They have unlimited amounts of money,

and they are prepared to spend it to elect candidates who represent their interests and not the needs of working people.

So when we are talking about saving democracy, it's not only the very serious threats of Donald Trump.

That's very real.

But it is also the need to fight back against the

corrupt campaign finance system to end this disastrous citizens united Supreme Court decision to get super PACs out of Democratic primaries.

So that is enormously important.

And, you know, it's part of that whole effort.

I'm proud to tell you that our fighting oligarchy rallies have now taken place in 24 states all over this country, including some very conservative states.

And well over 300,000 people have come out to these rallies.

And they're not just progressives.

They're not just Democrats.

They are independents and Republicans as well.

And furthermore, when we talk about fighting oligarchy and dealing with massive income and wealth inequality,

I think the time is long overdue for us to pass legislation that would impose a wealth tax on billionaires,

a billionaire's wealth tax.

And that's what I've introduced.

And this bill would raise over $4 trillion in the next 10 years.

And it would plow that money back into improving the lives of struggling working families.

So at a time when the billionaires are doing unbelievably well and working families are struggling, I think it's time to tax that wealth,

put it back into the pockets of working families and improve their lives lives.

So let me just briefly tell you what the legislation that I've introduced would do.

First, it would provide every man,

woman, and child in its first year with a $3,000 check in families earning $150,000 or less.

So every family, $150,000 or less, man, woman, and child, $3,000 direct payment,

which will go a long way to help people buy the food they need, pay the rent, get the health care they need long overdue.

Furthermore, we would provide very substantial sums of money into addressing the housing crisis,

homelessness, the fact that so many of our people are spending half of their incomes on housing,

and we would build with this money some 7 million units of low-income and affordable homes and apartments.

Furthermore, at a time when many of our elderly people are having a hard time getting the dental care they need, the vision that they need, the hearing aids that they need,

we would expand Medicare to cover those basic needs.

We would also provide universal childcare in our country and make sure that no one,

no family in America, pays more than 7% of their limited incomes on childcare childcare at a time

when public schools are finding it very difficult to attract the teachers that they need.

We would make certain that no teacher in America earns less than $60,000, $60,000 a year.

We would make sure that seniors and people with disabilities receive the home healthcare that they need through Medicaid.

And we would prevent 15 million Americans from losing

health care by repealing Trump's $1.1 trillion cut to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act.

The point here is that the billionaires have so much money

that a kind of modest tax on their wealth could go a long, long way to buttress up the programs that working families,

low-income people desperately need, as well as in the first year, put a check of $3,000 into the pockets of every man, woman, and child.

And I got to tell you, you know, I know that many of the media and many of the politicians,

they just worry so much about our billionaire friends who fund them every day.

Well, despite this tax, I'm happy to tell you that Mr. Musk and Mr. Bezos and Mr.

Zuckerberg and Mr. Ellison and all the other multi-multi-billionaires would still have a few hundred billion dollars left to feed their family.

So we're not going to put them out on the streets.

Furthermore, I think what we need to do is address the very serious threat of AI and robotics.

So this is an issue that I have gotten more

and more involved in as I speak to people all across this country.

And we We've talked to some of the leading experts in America who understand the economics of AI and robotics,

who understand the existential threat that these technologies face.

I mean, just today, just literally today, it was announced that Jeff Bezos,

the head of Amazon, not only wants to get rid of all of his warehouse workers and replace them with robots,

100

he is setting up a $100 billion fund or program to try to eliminate human beings, workers, in factories and warehouses,

101

not only in America, all over the world.

102

His dream is that you're going to have robots do all of the manufacturing and warehouse work in this country.

103

But it is not just the threat, the very legitimate threat, that we're going to be losing tens of millions of jobs in the next decade.

104

And it's not only blue-collar jobs, it's white-collar jobs.

105

Many young people graduating college right now are finding it very,

106

very difficult to get entry-level work that they need.

107

But I'll tell you something else.

108

As important as the economic issue is, as important as the privacy issue is,

109

and there's real fears about what AI can do in sweeping up all kinds of information about us,

110

as much as I fear about what it does to democracy

111

and our political system in giving all kinds of information to

112

powerful special interests who can use it to attack the foundations of American democracy,

113

there's something else out there that we should worry about and

114

that is you know uh what used to be science fiction oh my god the robots

115

and the computers are going to operate independently of human beings

116

that's a good science fiction film well you know what some

117

of the most knowledgeable people in the world right now people who have helped build uh the foundations of artificial intelligence.

118

People have received Nobel prizes for their work in physics,

119

etc. They now believe that there is a possibility that as AI advances and becomes smarter,

120

if you like, than human beings,

121

that AI can become independent of human control with the possibility of cataclysmic impacts.

122

So needless to say, this is an issue that we have got to address.

123

It's an issue that Congress is barely aware of.

124

They're dealing, nibbling around the edges.

125

But the fundamental issues of what this means economically, what it means politically, what it means existentially, what it means to the mental health of our kids,

126

who increasingly are being addicted to these AI agents, that discussion has not even begun in a significant way.

127

And that's why I will be be introducing next week legislation

128

calling for a moratorium on the construction of data centers in America.

129

And we do that not only because data centers are utilizing an enormous amount of electricity and water resources,

130

driving up electric rates, but we need to slow this process down.

131

We need to work with China and countries all over the world to get a handle on the implications of AI.

132

So that is an issue we're going to need everybody to be involved in.

133

Bottom line here is that AI and robotics are not unto themselves evil technologies,

134

but when they are being pushed by the wealthiest people on earth, Musk, Bezos, Ellison, and others, whose goal is simply to get much,

135

much richer and more powerful, we have got to say, excuse me, slow it down.

136

We want these technologies to work for working people, for ordinary Americans, and not just for the very, very rich.

137

So there is a lot of other stuff that's going on.

138

You've got a war in Iran,

139

etc., etc. But I just did want to say a few words about some of the issues that we are working on,

140

and I thank you very much.

141

Thank you.
