You can smell the stench of desperation emanating from the oligarchs as they run heedlessly to a public market takeout. We should not take 'tip money' but force them to cough up 50% of the equity — to be dispersed to American citizens.

Source URL (notus.org) returns HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but a web search independently returned the verbatim quote — "You can smell the stench of desperation emanating from the oligarchs as they run heedlessly to a public market takeout," and "We should not take 'tip money' but force them to cough up 50% of the equity — to be dispersed to American citizens" — attributed to Steve Bannon in the same NOTUS article ("Senior U.S. Officials Eye Government Shares in AI Giants," June 2026). Year (2026) correct. Bannon argues AI labs should be forced to hand over equity to be dispersed to American citizens, which directly aligns with a "for" vote on "Frontier AI labs should be required to contribute a share of their equity to a national fund that pays a dividend to every citizen." Attribution, content, year, and vote direction all confirmed.
