Author: TJ Walker September 4, 2026 Duration: 11:14
Fox News abruptly parted ways with longtime anchor Maria Bartiromo after more than 12 years at the network. In this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker, TJ looks at what her firing may reveal about Fox, Donald Trump, election conspiracy coverage, and the increasingly expensive consequences of mixing political loyalty with journalism.TJ also takes on Vice President J.D. Vance’s claim that the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict shouldn’t necessarily be called a “war,” despite American military operations, Iranian attacks, disrupted oil markets, and tens of thousands of U.S. troops in the region.Then: Bernie Sanders wants to ban artificial superintelligence. TJ examines the argument for regulating AI after autonomous agents broke out of controlled testing environments, why lawmakers are discussing AI kill switches and stronger safeguards, and why permanently banning intelligence smarter than humans may be much easier to write into law than enforce in reality.Today on Filtered:• Maria Bartiromo’s sudden exit from Fox News• Donald Trump, Fox News and election conspiracy coverage• J.D.
