The political debate over AI is shifting from accelerationist vs doomer to decentralized/open vs centralized/closed.

Thanks to Trump Accounts, every child will become a direct owner in the American economy. I hope every AI company will follow the lead of Gwynne Shotwell SpaceXAI and give American kids a vested interest in their success. This would do much to improve the public’s image of AI. Kudos to Brad Gerstner Senator Ted Cruz Michael Dell 🇺🇸 for creating this program with the full backing of President Trump, who signed it into law. I participated in their inspiring event yesterday, with dozens of CEOs expressing interest in making contributions.

Biden’s policy is open borders. Everything else is noise.

Speaking at the G20 Ministerial this week with Director Michael Kratsios, I made two points with respect to AI data centers. First, when done right, data centers lower electricity costs and bring significant economic benefits to local communities. Second, the choice remains with the communities themselves. In Executive Order 14365, President Trump established a national framework for AI but explicitly carved out data center infrastructure as a state and local decision. Despite some fake news to the contrary, the federal government is not preempting the states on this front. Under President Trump, this remains a matter for local communities to decide — and as the President noted this week, those that choose to embrace them will see lower taxes, new jobs, and historic growth.

Today President Trump obtained a pledge from America’s leading tech companies that new data centers would not increase electricity prices for residential consumers. These companies (including Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, Oracle, and xAI) signed the “Ratepayer Protection Pledge” under which they agree to cover the costs of all new power generation required for their data centers, ensuring such costs are not passed onto American households. This is a much better approach to affordability than Bernie Sanders’ total ban on new data centers, which would halt the construction boom currently driving wage growth and job growth for blue-collar workers. In fact, the Ratepayer Protection Pledge will lower electricity prices when AI companies pay for grid upgrades and sell their excess power back to the grid. Since the beginning of his second term, President Trump has championed the idea of letting our leading AI companies become power companies, and now this idea is becoming a reality thanks to his leadership and the commitments of these strong American companies. The right approach to data centers is not to stop progress altogether, but rather to protect residential rate payers from price increases, while making it easier to stand up new power generation.

Gonzalo Lira’s last public statement is chilling. He knew that if arrested, he would die in a Ukrainian prison. He pleaded for public outcry to put pressure on the U.S. State Department to do what it ordinarily does for American citizens trapped in these circumstances. But the outcry never came. The mainstream media ignored his story. So State Department officials were free to ignore the plight of a journalist who had criticized them. Gonzalo was abandoned. And so the Ukrainian government could treat him as they wished, as they treat other dissenters and critics — with imprisonment, brutality and murder.

.Robert F. Kennedy Jr crushes the accusation that he’s “anti-vax” and the idea that the Covid shots were “safe & effective.” Why is Piers Morgan still defending this idea? How many other vaccines don’t prevent illness and require a booster every few months?

This brilliant lesson on communication by Keith Rabois is why the AI leaders are failing. It’s not sufficient just to “speak your truth.” You have to communicate in a way that elucidates your audience. Convincing the public that your company is a menace obviously fails that test.

In his interview with The All-In Podcast, President Trump made a number of important comments on Ukraine. First, Trump guaranteed that if he becomes the next commander-in-chief, he will not put American boots on the ground in Ukraine. If France were to do so, as French President Emmanuel Macron has been advocating for, they would be on their own. Second, President Trump acknowledged the role of NATO expansion in causing the war: TRUMP: “So for twenty years, I heard that if Ukraine goes into NATO, it's a real problem for Russia. I've heard that for a long time. And I think that's really why this war started. I'm not sure that this war would have started. Biden was saying all of the wrong things. And one of the wrong things he was saying, “no, Ukraine will go into NATO.” … It's always been understood. And that's even before Putin. It's always been understood that that was a no-no. And now you can go against their wishes, and it doesn't mean they're right when they say that. But that was very provocative, and now it's even more provocative. And… I hear routinely they're now talking about Ukraine entering NATO, and now I hear France wants to go in and fight. Well, I wish them a lot of luck.” Overall, President Trump demonstrated an understanding of the conflict and how to avoid war with Russia, whereas President Biden continues to escalate us towards WWIII.
