Fox News Guest Slammed For Pushing This ‘1984’-Like Solution To Mass Shootings

Fox News guest Aaron Cohen used first lady Melania Trump’s call for “pre-emptive intervention in identifying potential school shooters” on Wednesday to pitch America’s “first-ever AI threat detection platform” for law enforcement.

“It scrapes the internet 24/7 using an Israeli-grade ontology to pull specific threat language and then routes it to local law enforcement,” said Cohen, an American-Canadian actor and former Israel Defense Forces operative.

“It’s a 24/7 detective, it never sleeps and it’s going to get us in front of these attacks.”

The attacker, who law enforcement identified as Robin Westman, was dressed in all black and fired a rifle through church windows toward children at Mass before they shot and killed themselves.

Police are aware of a video “timed to be released” on the attacker’s YouTube channel that included “some disturbing writings,” according to Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara.

Cohen, who claimed that his platform would launch next week, said the attack would have “100%” been flagged by the platform.

There have been 9,821 deaths due to gun violence in the U.S. so far this year and 17,930 injuries.

The first lady, in her call to identify “warning signs” to prevent school shootings, failed to mention guns in her post but stressed a need to conduct “behavioral threat assessments across all levels of society.”

In June, Cohen used Fox News to suggest someone in the Trump administration reach out to him on his so-called “threat detection platform.”

He also took to X to note that his “elite engineering team” includes those formerly with billionaire Peter Thiel’s Palantir, which the Trump administration has reportedly tapped to compile a database of Americans’ personal information.
