Lead: Your Car, Their Rules

Starting in 2027, all new vehicles were supposed to include monitoring systems designed to determine whether a driver is fit to drive. It seems the technology isn’t ready yet, but it will be at some point.

Once in full effect, impairment won’t be judged by a police officer or another human, but instead by an algorithm using cameras and behavioral-tracking technology. The system will be capable of disabling cars if it doesn’t like what it detects.

To some, this might sound like a great idea since it was designed to stop drunk driving. But others see it as a surveillance system where cameras watch your face, sensors track your eyes, and behavior is analyzed.

The foundation for it was placed in Biden’s 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Buried inside Section 24220 is a mandate requiring “advanced impaired-driving technology” in every new car sold in America. Harmless wording on the surface, of course, because calling it a government-mandated driver monitoring system capable of disabling your vehicle might have sparked public outrage.

Representative Thomas Massie has been one of the few people fighting to amend this legislation by supporting the No Kill Switches in Cars Act. In 2025, he questioned how the technology could be mandated before it even exists, and warned that the final product could easily generate false positives during emergencies or stressful situations. He told Congress that if the technology is enforced, car dashboards would become the “judge, jury, and executioner.”

Similar technology is in the works as we speak. Ford has filed a patent for a system that would capture biometric traits, such as fingerprints and facial features, and run them through a criminal database to detect persons of interest.

Imagine jumping in your car to head to the grocery store, and you’re scanned for criminal activity.

What’s next? Geofencing, where your vehicle won’t let you go to your intended destination.

People don’t want government-mandated control over their vehicles; it’s an invasion of privacy and a violation of their constitutional rights. But more importantly, there’s a bigger picture going on here, because this isn’t really about cars. It’s about building a surveillance state where, eventually, compliance will be enforced by limiting freedoms.

Kim’s Dead Man Switch

Kim Jong Un made a serious change to North Korea’s constitution: If anyone takes him out, or he becomes incapacitated in a foreign attack, a nuclear strike will be launched.

The revision was passed during the 15th Supreme People’s Assembly in Pyongyang on March 22 and was revealed last week by South Korea’s intelligence service.

The amendment also states: “If the command-and-control system over the state’s nuclear forces is placed in danger by hostile forces’ attacks… a nuclear strike shall be launched automatically and immediately.”

The timing isn’t coincidental: Professor Andrei Lankov, a historian and expert in international relations at Kookmin University in Seoul, notes, “Iran was the wake-up call. North Korea saw the remarkable efficiency of the US-Israeli decapitation attacks, which immediately eliminated the greater part of the Iranian leadership, and they must now be terrified.”

The recent assassination of Iran’s supreme leader may have brought back bad memories of 2022, when the U.S. and South Korea launched war simulations with North Korea as the target. The military labeled it a kill chain, in which they target North Korea’s nuclear sites and go for a decapitation, meaning an assassination of Kim Jong Un.

These changes weren’t limited to nuclear policy. Other constitutional revisions included cutting all references to reunification with the South. North Korea hasn’t commented, but South Korea says it’s sticking to peaceful coexistence. Good luck with that. Kim Jong Un is reportedly planning to deploy new artillery along the southern border, potentially putting Seoul within striking distance.

The constitutional amendments make it obvious that Pyongyang has no problem launching a nuclear strike, all while the U.S. obsesses over preventing Iran from developing weapons it doesn’t have the means to create and wasn’t attempting to.

What’s Trending

UFO files spanning decades are trending after they were released by the Department of Defense, with some calling it a disappointing “Nothing Burger.”

Spirit Airlines is trending after a crowdfunding effort to save the company brought in over $300 million. The airline collapsed after 34 years, citing that high oil prices were what put it over the edge.

The Bahamas is trending because an alcohol ban will be in effect this Tuesday from 8 AM to 6 PM during their general election. Cruise passengers visiting private islands, such as Royal Caribbean’s CocoCay, will be disappointed when they realize it’s an alcohol-free day.
