Extra: Can The American Republic Survive the Age of AI?

As Meta and Google face a landmark trial in California over allegations that social media algorithms are intentionally addictive to minors, the legal world is watching for a “Big Tobacco” moment.

Earlier this week, Jonathan Turley, George Washington University Law Professor and FOX News Contributor, joined the Rundown’s Dave Anthony to explain why he remains skeptical of these “addictive technology” lawsuits and the First Amendment hurdles they face.

Later, Professor Turley shifted from the courtroom to the history books to discuss his latest work, Rage and the Republic: The Unfinished Story of the American Revolution. He detailed the fascinating, messy life of Thomas Paine and compared the “rage” of the French Revolution to the uniquely controlled democratic impulses that established the United States.

Turley also discussed the challenges that democracies will face as social media and artificial intelligence evolve and become a larger part of our lives. In an era of AI and digital polarization, he argues that understanding our founding is the only way to navigate the challenges ahead.

We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with legal scholar Jonathan Turley
