SPARE NO SPARE PARTS: Fires across America’s junkyards spark theories about pushing drivers towards new AI-controlled vehicles

Multiple car salvage yards across America have been catching fire and burning down. At first glance, it doesn’t seem too suspicious, but if you look closer at the context and the timing, you can’t help but wonder – is someone interested in destroying spare parts for old cars so they can be replaced by newer hi-tech cars that make it easier to carry out constant surveillance? America Now anchor Ben Swann examines the evidence with independent journalist Mel K. Also, is AI going to answer your 911 call if you ever need one? America Now correspondent Jalyssa Dugrot has more on the latest tests of the new emergency system. Plus, Todd Blanche has officially been sworn in as the next US attorney general.
