Donald Trump is taking center stage in the Republican midterm strategy, but is that an advantage or a gift to Democrats?
On this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker, TJ looks at Republicans building their midterm convention around Trump, questions the logic of promising voters a $5,000 “dividend” while the national debt keeps climbing, and breaks down the growing political backlash against AI and data centers.
TJ also examines the first anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the controversy surrounding a university professor who was fired after sharing an article about Kirk’s past comments. The case raises a larger question: if conservatives oppose cancel culture, should that principle also protect speech they find offensive?
Plus: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, AI infrastructure, electricity and water costs, free speech, political hypocrisy, government spending, and why both parties have trouble applying their own principles consistently.
