Waymo makes its debut in New York City, while Tesla expands its autonomous taxi program in Austin, Texas. Schroer expresses personal skepticism and "control freak" anxiety regarding riding in driverless vehicles. Despite these concerns, the segment acknowledges that autonomous ride services are becoming a permanent fixture in major metropolitan areas like Austin and Phoenix.

Analysts predicted that the next major shift in domestic security will be triggered by "drone terrorism," similar to the impact of 9/11. Such an event would likely lead to a new "Patriot Act" for the digital age, including expanded surveillance and anti-drone jamming technology. The segment suggested that the infrastructure for a total police state is being built under the guise of border and domestic security.

Footage from Los Angeles shows mobs assaulting individuals and hijacking driverless Waymo vehicles during the ongoing riots. Protesters were seen dancing on top of the autonomous cars and tagging them with graffiti while law enforcement remained outnumbered. The host characterizes these acts as "terrorism" funded by international entities to create a spectacle of instability in the United States.

The concept of "white room torture," a form of sensory deprivation interrogation, is discussed alongside the history of MKUltra. A news story about a Harvard Medical School morgue director trafficking body parts is used to argue that psychopaths often seek out professions involving death or government power. A caller also mentions seeing Waymo autonomous vehicles in Phoenix.
