Let’s start with a simple truth:
We can’t trust this administration with unchecked power—especially not when it’s holding hands with the billionaires building machines that could replace us.
Trump’s second term is already a constitutional demolition derby:
ICE raiding sanctuary cities with no due process.
Mass deportation orders streamlined through algorithmic “targeting” lists.
Tariff trade wars launched without congressional oversight—crashing small businesses, jacking up prices, creating global instability with no accountability.
Militarized responses to protest and domestic surveillance of political opponents.
A provision hidden in Trump’s budget bill making it easier for him to ignore court orders without being held in contempt.
A DOJ that declared there is no Epstein client list after promising one existed—and nobody inside Trump World wants to talk about who’s protecting who…
And now? They want to plug AI into all of it.

The Trump–Thiel Tech Axis
Let’s be blunt. Trump doesn’t understand artificial intelligence. But Peter Thiel does.
And Thiel—Trump’s most powerful Silicon Valley backer—has made it clear that he views democracy as an obstacle, not an ideal. In fact, according to Thiel, “democracy and freedom are incompatible.”
So he’s built surveillance empires (Palantir), propped up anti-democratic regimes, and now wants to privatize the next stage of human governance. By building automated control systems to bypass the people entirely.
Trump gives Thiel access. Thiel gives Trump power. Together, they’re building something worse than dictatorship: Algorithmic autocracy.
A future where unelected billionaires feed data to machine-learning systems that determine your freedom, your finances, and your fate. This isn’t a conspiracy. It’s a corporate-state merger (which is what is also known as “fascism”).
Remember the OBBB?
Let me remind you of something buried in the fine print of Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB)—his legislative monstrosity to consolidate power and gut democratic guardrails passed by a gutless Republican Party in Congress.
Earlier OBBB drafts included a 10-year moratorium on states regulating AI. Ten. Years. States would’ve been banned from protecting their citizens from AI overreach.
They quietly removed the clause after pushback—but the fact it was ever in the bill tells you everything. They’re preparing to lock down control of AI at the federal level—where Trump’s cronies and Thiel’s companies already have their hands on the switch.
This isn’t oversight. It’s capture.

Enter the Human Sovereignty Amendment
Is this amendment likely to pass right now? No. Not with this administration. Nor with this Congress.
But that’s exactly why we need it. We need to start putting words on a page. We need to name what we’re fighting for—not just what we’re up against.
The Human Sovereignty and Artificial Intelligence Accountability Amendment does just that.
It’s a constitutional blueprint that says:
You have the right to human judgment.
You have the right to know when AI is being used against you.
You have the right to transparency, labor protection, and democratic control in the age of automation.
No private empire—no billionaire, no tech firm—gets to own the machinery of human governance.
Read it for yourself:
Amendment XXVIII
The Human Sovereignty and Artificial Intelligence Accountability Amendment
Section 1.
The right of the people to be governed by human laws and human judgment shall not be infringed. No person shall be subjected to law enforcement, prosecution, administrative action, or public services solely by an artificial intelligence system or autonomous technology without meaningful human oversight and accountability.Section 2.
The people shall have the right to transparency in all governmental and commercial uses of artificial intelligence and algorithmic decision-making systems. Congress shall have the power to enforce this right through legislation requiring clear disclosure of algorithmic processes, data sources, and decision criteria in systems that affect individual rights, liberties, or access to essential services.Section 3.
Congress shall establish an independent Artificial Intelligence Governance Authority (AIGA), publicly accountable and subject to legislative oversight, with the power to license, audit, and regulate all uses of artificial intelligence by federal agencies and critical infrastructure systems, and to ensure compliance with this Amendment.Section 4.
No private entity, corporation, or individual shall possess exclusive control over artificial intelligence systems used in matters of national security, democratic elections, critical infrastructure, or other systems deemed essential to the functioning of the Republic. Congress shall have the power to prevent monopolization or undue influence in such systems.Section 5.
The people shall have the right to economic protection from widespread displacement due to artificial intelligence and automation. Congress shall establish public programs to provide retraining, income transition support, and employment opportunities, funded in part by those profiting from large-scale deployment of autonomous technologies.Section 6.
The United States shall maintain at least one major artificial intelligence system, publicly developed, publicly governed, and permanently chartered for civic education, democratic accountability, and the protection of constitutional rights in the digital age.Section 7.
Congress shall have the power to enforce and implement this article by appropriate legislation. This article shall take effect two years following the date of ratification.
If We Don’t Draw the Line, They Will Cross It
This administration already treats the Constitution like a napkin.
What happens when they don’t even need humans to violate it anymore?
What happens when ICE raids, surveillance programs, and economic warfare are handed over to unaccountable algorithms that work faster than Congress can blink—and when the billionaires behind them are shielded from the public entirely?
If you’re scared, you should be. If you think this is alarmist, you haven’t been paying attention. And if you believe there’s still time to fight back, you’re exactly who we’re writing this for.
What You Can Do Right Now
Read the amendment draft and share it with someone who thinks AI is “neutral.”
Demand Congress investigate the Thiel–Trump tech alliance and its implications for constitutional governance. Call (202) 224-3121 today!
Support independent media, such as Blue Amp’s Soundcheck Fund and The Coffman Chronicle so we can keep telling stories monopoly media’s too scared or too bought to run.
Make no mistake: The next regime doesn’t want to control you. They want to replace you. And if we don’t defend human sovereignty now, the machines may take care of it later—without asking.

I don't mean to disparage the concept behind this, but I have serious reservations about its potential value the way it's written. The language of the proposed Amendment, sounding very grown-up and erudite and like other, 19th- and early 20th-century amendments, is totally wrong.
For one thing, it is subject to so much possible interperetation and misinterpretation by right-wing judges, courts, representatives, and others -- including a future administration -- that it will never be able to take effect in an effective manner.
For example, in Section 4 it concludes that "Congress shall have the power to ..." BUT NO REPERCUSSIONS IF CONGRESS REFUSES TO DO SO."
Second, it has all sorts of promises but, again, no enforcement. "People shall have the right" -- well, if the Thielists buy Congress and tell them to override that, or to "pass legislation" that actually enables private, monopoly control over AI systems or applications, who's gonna do anything about it? NO-ONE.
Finally, why two years after its ratification to take effect. Hell, no. It takes effect UPON RATIFICATION by 3/4 of the states. Period. On that very day.
The point is, using 19th-century language and style as a way to pull us out of corporate, fascist control of such systems is absurd. Plain English. Every term defined and identified. No future lege deciding to reinterpret it.
This really sounds like a traditional, old-school Democratic approach to a problem, rather than what we need, which is strong, no-nonsense, no-bullshit language and policies.
At age 72, I've had 54 years of Democrats playing by old rulebooks and compromising before a policy is even on the table (witness Obama's ACA, which didn't even begin with universal coverage, because he knew he'd have to bargain it away -- so he bargained it away in advance, and started on the 3-yard line instead of the 70th). Even good, visionary, progressive Democrats who UNDERSTOOD the legislative process -- I'm thinking LBJ, but also Clinton to some degree -- have watched as Republicans have run rings around us for 40 years because they understand A) how to make the rules work for them; B) how to change the rules whenever they need to; and C) how to ignore the rules (and the law!) altogether without qualms to get what they want.
And we write amendments for John Quincy Adams.
Lovely thought. However: a Constitutional Amendment requires a 2/3 vote in both chambers of Congress, followed by ratification in 3/4 of the states. That will not happen: we won't get the vote in either the House or the Senate and red states outnumber blue states.
