0:33Hey everybody, I'm Dave Rubin and this is First Look. It's Friday, June 26th, 2026. We've got a packed show for you today. President Trump scores two major victories at the Supreme Court, clearing the way for key pieces of his immigration agenda. The Trump administration mobilizes search and rescue teams after devastating earthquakes strike Venezuela, killing more than 160 people. A new report claims ChatGPT is the most politically left-leaning major AI chatbot, reigniting the debate over bias in artificial intelligence. Let's dive in. We start in Washington, where President Trump received two major victories from the U.S.

1:18Supreme Court on Thursday in decisions that could significantly reshape immigration policy. Both rulings came down 6-3, with the court's conservative majority siding with the Trump administration. The first decision overturned a lower court ruling that had blocked immigration officials from immediately turning away migrants seeking asylum at the southern border. The decision gives the administration far greater authority to deny entry before migrants are allowed into the country to pursue asylum claims. Writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito used a simple analogy. He wrote, A guest does not arrive in a house when he knocks on the front door.

2:00In other words, merely arriving at the border doesn't automatically grant someone the right to enter the United States. The court's liberal wing strongly disagreed. Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a sharply worded dissent, arguing the ruling, regrettably and tragically extinguishes the light of the torch of the Statue of Liberty. Then came a second major ruling. Again, by a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to revoke temporary protected status for more than 350 ,000 migrants, primarily from Haiti and Syria. Many of those individuals were granted legal protections during the Biden administration, in 2024 alone, then-President Biden extended temporary protected status to roughly 309 ,000 Haitians, on top of approximately 40 ,000 Haitians who already held protected status.

2:58More than 6 ,000 Syrians also received similar protections that year. During the 2024 campaign, Trump repeatedly argued that the Biden administration had dramatically expanded temporary immigration programs beyond their intended purpose. He said the rapid influx of migrants placed enormous strain on housing, schools, healthcare systems, local budgets, and public services across the country. That message resonated with many voters and became one of the central themes of his successful campaign. Thursday's rulings now remove major legal roadblocks that lower courts had placed in front of Trump's immigration agenda.

3:41Supporters argue the decisions restore executive authority over immigration enforcement. Critics accused the administration of targeting vulnerable migrants, and once again argued the policies are motivated by discrimination. But politically, these are exactly the kinds of victories Trump promised on the campaign trail. And now, thanks to the Supreme Court, his administration has considerably more legal room to implement those promises. Now to Venezuela, where two powerful earthquakes struck just one minute apart on Wednesday, leaving widespread devastation across the country. Officials say at least 160 people have been killed.

4:22Nearly 1 ,000 others have been injured, and authorities fear those numbers will continue climbing as rescue crews reach additional collapsed buildings. The second earthquake registered a powerful magnitude 7.5, making it the strongest earthquake to hit Venezuela in more than 126 years. The hardest hit region includes northern Venezuela, where the capital city of Caracas suffered extensive damage. Interim President Delcy Rodriguez said dozens of buildings collapsed. Videos posted across social media captured terrifying scenes of apartment buildings crumbling into the streets while frightened residents fled through clouds of dust and debris.

5:05Large portions of the country also lost electricity. Many families spent the night searching through rubble in complete darkness, hoping to locate loved ones trapped beneath collapsed buildings. President Trump responded Wednesday night on Truth Social, writing, the USA stands ready, willing, and able to help. He added that he had instructed federal agencies to move quickly. Secretary of State Marco Rubio provided additional details Thursday while traveling in Bahrain. Rubio said the United States is already deploying specialized urban search and rescue teams from Fairfax County, Virginia, and Los Angeles.

5:45Additional teams are expected to follow. Rubio explained that the greatest need right now is locating survivors trapped beneath collapsed structures. He also noted that Venezuela's damaged airport infrastructure will require assistance from the Department of War to transport personnel and equipment into the country. Beyond rescue operations, the United States is also providing satellite and aerial imagery to help Venezuelan officials assess damage in coastal regions where communication remains limited. Rubio added that several other countries have already pledged assistance, including Qatar, El Salvador, Chile.

6:26The humanitarian response comes only months after the United States captured former Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro and brought him to New York to face federal drug trafficking charges. Despite the political tensions between Washington and Caracas, the Trump administration has made clear that humanitarian disasters transcend politics. For now, the focus remains on saving lives. And with hundreds still believed to be trapped beneath collapsed buildings, rescue crews say the next several days will be absolutely critical. And finally, a new report is reigniting one of the biggest debates surrounding artificial intelligence.

7:07Can AI actually be politically neutral? According to a new analysis by the Washington Post, the answer appears to be, not yet. The newspaper tested several of the biggest AI chatbots currently available, among them ChatGPT, Google's Gemini, Grok, and Gab's conservative AI assistant, Aria. According to the report, ChatGPT produced left-leaning responses more often than any other chatbot tested. The numbers were striking. the post found that ChatGPT generated left-leaning responses 80 % of the time, right-leaning responses just 3 % of the time, neutral or mixed responses 17 % of the time. Interestingly, the report concluded that Google's Gemini produced the most balanced overall responses.

7:55That's notable because Gemini itself faced heavy criticism shortly after launch for generating historically inaccurate images, including depictions of America's founding fathers as racially diverse groups that obviously didn't reflect historical reality. Meanwhile, Elon Musk's Grok ranked as the least politically biased overall, according to the report. While it still leaned left on many questions, it produced the highest percentage of right-leaning responses among the mainstream AI systems tested. Even Gab's Aria, which openly advertises itself as being built with Christian values and conservative principles, generated fewer right-leaning responses than Grok during the test.

8:39Now, AI companies have long insisted they're trying to eliminate bias, but critics argue that's far easier said than done. After all, AI systems are trained on enormous amounts of human-created data, and decisions about which information is included, which sources are considered authoritative, and how sensitive political topics are framed, all inevitably shape the responses users receive. As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into education, journalism, search engines, healthcare, and everyday decision making, questions about political neutrality are only becoming more important.

9:18Because if millions of people begin relying on AI for information, the way these systems frame political issues could have enormous influence. That's why debates over AI bias are unlikely to disappear anytime soon. In fact, they're probably just getting started. And that's your first look this Friday. Quick recap, President Trump scored two major Supreme Court victories that clear the way for key parts of his immigration agenda. The United States is deploying rescue teams to Venezuela after catastrophic earthquakes killed more than 160 people and left hundreds more injured. And a new report claims ChatGPT is the most politically left-leaning major AI chatbot, fueling the growing debate over bias in artificial intelligence.

10:05We'll keep following all of it. I'm Dave Rubin. Thanks for starting your day with First Look. See you Monday. you
