Congressman Jake Auchincloss joins Marshall Herskovitz and Nick Knudsen to expose how social media algorithms are POISONING democracy, hijacking dopamine, and rewriting the definition of freedom itself.Congressman Auchincloss lays out how Big Tech manipulates attention, profits from outrage, and keeps kids glued to screens like addicts and why both parties have failed to act.
