Code Red: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI Hardcover – March 17, 2026

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“One of the most important books in years.” - #1 NYT Bestselling Author Peter Schweizer“Code Red is a must-read.” – Sen. Marsha Blackburn, TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in AI “Illuminating…alarming…essential.” –Michael Shellenberger, Award-Winning Investigative Journalist Elon Musk calls artificial intelligence a “supersonic tsunami” headed toward humanity. Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman warns that in as little as 12 to 18 months, AI could automate nearly every task white collar workers perform. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says that within the next 12 months to five years, AI could unleash a jobs bloodbath that disrupts half of all entry-level white-collar jobs.So, as President Donald Trump leads the nation through AI’s seismic shifts, Americans are left asking the defining question of our time: Is AI hype or hope, promise or peril, existential threat or the next great technological leap toward prosperity and human flourishing?The answer will affect everything, because AI is not just about jobs. It will shape whether our children are educated or indoctrinated. Whether people form relationships with other human beings or with machines. How and what we worship. And who lives or dies on the battlefield as AI warfare accelerates.All of it will shock-test our civic order.And whether we are ready or not, you do not get to opt out of the AI revolution. That decision has already been made for you.Today, 99% of Americans use AI—even if most of us don’t realize it. For conservatives, this is a Code Red moment. Big Tech is quietly hard-coding left-wing ideology into the algorithms that now govern daily life. The Left is already weaponizing AI while conservatives sleepwalk straight into calamity, unless they're ready for what's coming.In Code Red, Breitbart social media director Wynton Hall exposes where that power hides, how it operates, how conservatives can navigate the AI political battlescape, avert its landmines, and turn peril into promise. AI decides what you see and what gets censored. It’s quietly rewiring our whole way of life. The solution? Americans need a “code”: a set of principles and solutions rooted in the red political worldview to navigate the upheaval and stay ahead.Inside Code Red, you will discover:- Why AI is wired for woke indoctrination—and how to resist it.- How elites plan to weaponize AI job losses to push dependency.- How America can beat China without becoming China.- How to prepare your kids for the blinding speed of AI disruption.- The new national security threats AI unleashes—and how we defend against them.- Why “AI girlfriends” are luring millions—and what it will take to preserve authentic human connection.- How AI will test faith and meaning—and why spiritual renewal may be its most surprising outcome.Urgent, deeply researched, and written with page-turner elegance, Code Red is the conservative battle plan for the AI era. Either we wake up and fight back, or we lose everything that made America free. Read more
