00:00:30.720 Sam Altman's attack, suspect charged with attempted murder.
00:00:34.640 This is Wall Street Journal's story that comes out.
00:00:36.460 Rob, I think you have a video on it.
00:00:38.540 So if you want to go to the video first, then I'll read the rest of the stuff.
00:00:42.000 I think this 20-year-old Daniel Moreno-Gama was carrying an anti-AI document
00:00:48.400 that included the names and addresses of apparent board members and chief executives.
00:00:52.340 Is this the clip, Rob?
00:00:53.320 Yes, sir.
00:00:53.660 Go for it.
00:00:54.100 SUSPECT WHO PROSECUTORS SAY WAS TRYING TO KILL OPEN AI C.E.O. SAM ALTMAN, THE SUSPECT
00:01:01.680 THEY SAY THREW A MOLOTOV COCKTAIL AT HIS HOME, THAT SUSPECT IS CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY FACING A
00:01:08.000 LIST OF CHARGES. BROOK TAYLOR IS LIVE ON THE GROUND OUTSIDE THE SUSPECT'S HOME IN SPRING,
00:01:13.460 TEXAS, THAT'S A SUBURBAN COMMUNITY JUST NORTH OF HOUSTON. BROOK. 0.61
00:01:17.240 Hi, Harris. Well, Fox News exclusively here right now as FBI agents literally just swarmed the home
00:01:26.480 of that 20-year-old suspect accused of trying to kill the CEO of OpenAI by throwing a Molotov
00:01:33.220 cocktail at his house. Now, we have the Harris County Sheriff's Office here and, again, the FBI.
00:01:40.720 I want to say over a dozen federal agents and law enforcement officers.
00:01:46.420 You can see his garage is open here.
00:01:48.980 Now, sources tell me the suspect was driven by strong anti-AI views,
00:01:53.780 and he was arrested in San Francisco carrying a document that he wrote attacking AI.
00:01:59.920 That document is a three-part series and includes a list of names and addresses of other AI CEOs and investors.
00:02:09.280 So, by the way, when you're hearing this guy, 20 years old, two counts of attempted murder,
00:02:13.380 he's going to face five plus to 20 years mandatory minimum at 3.37 a.m. Friday,
00:02:18.100 the time he allegedly threw a lit Molotov cocktail style incendiary device at Altman San Francisco home,
00:02:26.320 igniting a fire at the exterior gate three miles the distance.
00:02:29.380 He then walked from Altman's home to Open Eye headquarters where he retrieved a chair and smashed glass doors,
00:02:35.080 then told security guards he'd come to burn it down and kill anyone inside found on Marano Gamma at arrest incendiary devices,
00:02:44.580 a jug of kerosene, a blue lighter, a handwritten AI document described by the FBI.
00:02:50.140 The FBI raided his home, potential domestic terrorism charges.
00:02:54.300 U.S. Attorney Crick Misakian stated that if investigations show the attack were executed to change policy or coerce officials,
00:03:00.820 federal prosecutors would treat them as domestic terrorism.
00:03:03.100 Tom, your thoughts on this?
00:03:04.140 So here we go. You have somebody that has a bit of a screw loose and a vendetta. And then you get this and you've got, you know, low tech, you know, Molotov cocktail is basically gasoline in a jar with a lid on it and some sort of a, you know, a fuse or a flame.
00:03:23.880 And so it doesn't take much to be a domestic terrorist.
00:03:28.560 And I think you've got a lot of people out here where and I'm just leaving out the whole trans discussion because so many of these young men have been trans and had mental issues, you know, perhaps, you know, interrelated to that.
00:03:43.600 I'm talking about you have men that are troubled, that are reaching out to lash out and, you know, believing that to go out and commit murder, you know, it's kind of like Luigi and UnitedHealthcare.
00:03:56.940 It's like, you know, what led you to be so upset and so compelled and so touched that you could go out and commit something like this?
00:04:04.880 I think it's I think it's part of a wider issue.
00:04:07.480 What do you think?
00:04:08.120 Yeah, it's a tragedy.
00:04:08.980 Obviously, I haven't dived into that person's specific issues.
00:04:11.860 but yeah the broader trend as we have more kind of wealth concentration as we have more of this
00:04:18.120 polarization that's happening uh unfortunately these things are likely to increase uh people
00:04:23.320 generally feel the social contract's broken they don't and then you know melt and mental health
00:04:27.100 issues kind of take over um uh you know and so i think security is going to be a really big factor
00:04:33.380 i mean that's kind of living in a polarized economy makes everyone feel unsafe ironically
00:04:38.300 even even those that are benefiting from it because what is what is wealth if you just have
00:04:42.380 trouble being safe moving around um there were some statistics a while back that are still true
00:04:47.380 even before this whole kind of current ai wave which is that young men in particular uh basically
00:04:52.220 men in their young 20s they were some of the most uh dislocated from employment at the current time
00:04:57.360 uh generally speaking that dislocated yeah that they're the the the although we have overall pretty
00:05:02.740 low unemployment levels uh it was young men in particular that were they were kind of becoming
00:05:07.320 a more problem area where there's this pocket
00:05:09.560 of unemployment showing up.
00:05:10.620 It's not really affecting young women.
00:05:11.760 It's not really affecting older men,
00:05:13.380 but that pocket of young men was kind of impacted.
00:05:16.920 That's where some of these issues are forming.
00:05:20.640 You know, I would call it like the Joker mindset.
00:05:23.140 Remember that nasty Joaquin Phoenix Joker movie?
00:05:25.540 I hated the movie.
00:05:26.260 Yeah, terrible message.
00:05:28.460 But that's what this is, though.
00:05:30.420 This guy, Luigi Mangione, they have that victim,
00:05:33.880 you know nasty uh mindset where it's like somebody's oppressing them and they need to
00:05:38.460 like be the hero and take somebody out because of that but i mean that's what i think of when i
00:05:42.400 think of do you think it's them or do you think it's the teachers oh the society streamers that
00:05:48.620 are injecting that hate in them for them to want to take action like this what what do you think
00:05:53.680 it is yeah no i definitely think that um you know guys i guess uh who are like unexceptional guys
00:05:59.900 have like a tougher time like especially with being influenced by certain things in society
00:06:04.020 especially if they're dealing with pain so i think that there are people in certain situations are
00:06:07.600 like more susceptible to being influenced like that and like if they get enough of like a nasty
00:06:11.660 hateful message then they could be influenced to do something like that so yeah definitely society
00:06:15.460 but then it's certain people are more susceptible to it than others yeah i mean you know what is
00:06:20.380 big business right now executive protection it's a very big business right now guys are spending
00:06:25.740 money on executive protection like never before because they're seeing stuff like this like look
00:06:29.520 I've got to protect myself.
00:06:30.780 So they're setting aside a cost.
00:06:32.420 Just look at this guy.
00:06:33.620 Look at him.
00:06:34.880 Walks up with a chair, throws it against the glass, 0.99
00:06:38.460 says he's going to kill anyone he sees inside. 0.94
00:06:41.120 Now, he looks like he's 5'3", so I think it's going to be hard
00:06:43.500 because, you know, he's going to need some stuff to –
00:06:46.060 is this guy really 20 years old?
00:06:47.780 He looks like he's 9.
00:06:50.260 Yeah, he looks – and he needs to do some legs.
00:06:55.740 Well, you know, we've spoken to Prof. Jake.
00:06:59.020 Galloway. Yeah. And he has written some very insightful articles on the state state of men
00:07:07.940 in society. And when you have isolation, indoctrination in the school, you know,
00:07:13.680 all these people are bad. You're a victim, you're a victim, you're a victim. And then you have
00:07:17.160 isolation through what Galloway correctly points out is a lack of dating. And it's not just about
00:07:24.400 guys going out getting laid but it's a lack of natural relationships being formed with other
00:07:30.020 people and then economic desperation they feel economic desperation yep you take indoctrination
00:07:37.500 isolation economic desperation you know what you get this guy and you know we could do a longer
00:07:44.000 podcast with people like Galloway and others and just talk about this along with the FBI profiler
00:07:50.140 that you talk with, Pat, you know, this is what aims the gun.
00:07:54.820 This is what pulls the trigger.
00:07:57.020 This is, you know, there's a sequencing.
00:07:59.080 Yep.
00:07:59.520 Genetics loads the gun.
00:08:02.160 Personality aims the gun.
00:08:04.880 Experiences pulls the trigger.
00:08:06.760 Life experiences.
00:08:08.040 So what do we know about this kid?
00:08:10.340 What do we know about his parents' upbringing?
00:08:13.060 What facts do we have on him?
00:08:15.380 Well, you know, who is he?
00:08:16.500 What does his mom do?
00:08:17.460 What does his dad do?
00:08:18.400 What do we know about this guy?
00:08:19.300 Is there anything we know about the guy?
00:08:20.900 Because the report so far, I'm not seeing anything that's telling me
00:08:24.040 what this guy's all about.
00:08:25.400 Did he go to a specific school?
00:08:26.980 Is he a UC Berkeley guy?
00:08:29.680 There's indoctrination, if it was that.
00:08:32.020 Well, I mean, I'd want to know what other things are tied to somebody like this
00:08:36.940 to get to this point and make a decision like this.
