REPORT: Governments are now classifying massive AI data centers as “military operations,” quietly stripping communities of any power to stop them. Local control is disappearing fast. And it’s being replaced by national security justifications as residents are locked out of decisions that are quickly reshaping entire communities. Project Matador...

REPORT: Nearly 50,000 people in the Lake Tahoe region are now being told they could lose access to electricity because power is being redirected to AI data centers. Many Americans are starting to fear this is in their future, too, as data centers are being forced onto communities nationwide. What’s happening in Tahoe is no longer just a dispute over utilities. It’s becoming a warning sign for the entire nation as homes, tourism, local economies, and basic human needs are pushed aside to make room for the AI buildout. NV Energy reportedly plans to stop supplying the region after May 2027 because the power is needed to fuel the rapidly expanding AI data center boom. Residents now face collapsing property values, fears their communities may no longer remain livable, and the horrifying realization that ordinary Americans are increasingly being pushed aside so the AI race can accelerate. Critics say this keeps happening because data center developers and their political allies are being treated as more important than the people already living in these communities. The deeper fear spreading nationwide is becoming impossible to ignore: if Americans can lose power so AI infrastructure can expand, what will communities be forced to sacrifice next? ZeeeMediaOfficial's explosive report uncovers why growing numbers of Americans are starting to believe entire communities be traded away for the AI race.

Be aware of what your electricity bill is now. Watch what happens if any AI data centers get built in your region. Your rates are going to increase dramatically because consumers are going to be forced to pay for the expansion of the power supply. If AI companies are not forced to fully fund their electricity requirements, the rest of us will pay for it. We are starting to see communities rise up and protest the building permits for AI data centers in their areas.

Anne Neuberger says technology is now the arena of national power: "Technology moved from being a tool of diplomacy, of national power, to the arena of it." "The supply chain for chips was not a technology issue as much as a foundational economic and national security issue." "A software vulnerability is now not an IT issue. It can be a source of leverage, particularly if that vulnerability is in key parts of your power systems or your water systems." "Deterrence is no longer just the size of a military." "Those technologies today are not being built by governments, they're being built by the private sector, whether that's AI systems, whether that's autonomous systems, whether that's cyber defense systems." Anne Neuberger

In the next 15 years, data centers are expected to add an additional $160 billion to grid costs in the US Estimate say electricity rates for average households will spike by as much as 70% Data centers are projected to triple their share of US electricity demand in the next few years The main driver is the explosive growth of data centers built by Big Tech companies like Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Google, OpenAI and more to power artificial intelligence Places like Northern Virginia already has over 200 data centers with massive new ones planned. Utilities are striking secret proprietary deals with Big Tech companies. These are hidden behind NDAs that shift much of the infrastructure costs onto regular residential customers Just in the PJM energy market of 13 states covering 65 million people, data centers were responsible for 63% of last year’s record 800% spike in capacity prices (This is INSANE) Residential customers in places like Virginia and Louisiana are being forced to subsidize billions in new power plants and grid upgrades for data centers. An Examples of this is in Louisiana, Meta’s data center deal leaves the public potentially on the hook for half or more of a $3–4 billion power plant Again, without major policy changes, average household electricity bills could rise by up to 70% over the next 15 years due to data center demand. There is only one real way we can stop this, we must create a separate customer class for data centers Maryland and Oregon have already passed laws doing this Forces data centers to pay for the specific infrastructure they need instead of spreading the costs to everyone else. More states need to do the same Ban secret sweetheart deals Require full public disclosure of all contracts between utilities and Big Tech Prohibit deals where data centers pay below the actual cost of service Make data centers pay the full cost of new power plants and grid upgrades Change regulations so utilities cannot socialize the cost of data-center-driven infrastructure to residential and small business ratepayers This needs to be done immediately

AOC: And what are they asking for now? Endless energy. These companies are so desperate to profit from the AI boom that they are racing to construct thousands of giant AI data centers, jacking up utility costs for everyday Americans to pay for them. These data centers power thousands of high-intensity computer chips that are processing constantly and require massive amounts of energy to operate. Just one hyperscale data center consumes the same amount of energy in one second as 100,000 households. Because of this massive energy use, power and water utility companies must build multibillion-dollar infrastructure to keep up with the demand.

Finally: National News coverage on Georgia Power using eminent domain to seize Americans homes for Data Centers 330 property owners impacted 21 homes slated for complete demolition Georgia Power is planning power lines just 12 feet from bedroom windows. Georgia Power trucks and crews full access right next to living spaces Multiple data centers involved, even one major data center in a different county. 3 additional data centers already approved in Coweta County that will use the new power If homes don’t agree to sell they are given condemnation threats Family farms, cow pastures, chicken coops, animals, and beautiful country homes being torn down or devalued. Homes are already being demolished by Georgia Power for the same project They are claiming it’s for “public good” Eminent domain being used to benefit private data centers is not for “public good” They are kicking Americans off their generational homes and calling it a “public good” I also learned homeowners are reporting Georgia Power is undervaluing properties. As of right now the number is up to about 30 properties they could be facing full demolition

🚨 EUROPE IS BURNING… RIGHT AFTER POLITICIANS SIGNED MASSIVE DATA CENTER DEALS — AND PEOPLE ARE CONNECTING THE DOTS The same year politicians across Europe signed major contracts for new data centers… the continent is being hit by some of the worst wildfires in its history. Entire towns are being destroyed. Communities that protested the data center boom are watching their land burn. Some of those same people may now be forced to sell their land to the very companies they didn’t want there in the first place. At the same time, a strange and extreme heat wave is forcing millions of people to buy air conditioners all at once. And now politicians are saying they have no choice but to build more power plants… because of the heat wave. All of this is happening in countries that have already been dealing with severe drought for years. Data centers need massive amounts of power and land. Europe is suddenly on fire and overheating. Are these just tragic coincidences… or is something else going on?

David Friedberg: Michael Burry’s Datacenter Math is Wrong “I actually think Michael Burberry's got this wrong.” “What Michael Burry is saying is that all of these hyperscalers have extended their depreciation schedule or the useful life of their data centers by roughly 2x, which cuts the operating costs in half when they report it in earnings. And so it's making their earnings inflate.” “So he's claiming they're cooking the books. Google first made this change in Q1 of 2021, where they said the servers are now going from 3 to 4 years. Separately in 2021, Google took networking equipment from 3 to 5 years. And then in 2023, they took it from 5 to 6 years.” “And so this is a result of this effort where they went in and did an analysis. So what happened?” “What happened in the data centers is that the data centers transitioned from being primarily data storage and data transfer systems, where you would use hard drives and RAM and memory to store data and then transmit it back out, to being data processing centers because of the AI boom.” “So as AI became more important in the data center, more of the dollars that are going into data centers were allocated towards chips from data storage, which initially was hard drives.” “And then suddenly, when you put these processors in to process the data to do AI, the majority of the spend and the majority of the energy is going towards the processors.” “I made some calls and I checked around with some other friends, and everyone says the same thing: that these 7-8 year old TPUs and GPUs that are sitting in the data centers are still being used and they're being used at 100% utilization.” “So that actually justifies and validates the depreciation schedule being much longer versus shorter.”

Kevin O’Leary’s Utah Megacenter: An AI Breakthrough or a Surveillance Nightmare? The Stratos hyperscale data center in Utah has become a flashpoint for growing local anger. Built on roughly 40,000 acres, it’s slated to draw up to 9 gigawatts of power. More than double Utah’s current electricity use, and over 16 billion gallons of water a year, in a state already struggling with drought. For residents, this isn’t just another tech project. It’s a massive resource drain, and a potential national security asset. A surveillance hub dropped into their backyard without real public consent. Kevin O’Leary insists the project is critical if America wants to stay ahead in the AI race and outcompete China. On the ground in Utah, ELIZABETH LANE is following the protests, the politics, and the fine print.

.Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 on the data center build-out and how America is holding itself back: "What's happening literally in the US right now county by county with the ability to build data centers is profoundly destructive." "And that's entirely domestic. And a large number of politicians are feeding that hysteria as much as they possibly can." "A lot of our leading public figures, and a lot of intellectuals, and a lot of the press, and a lot of the analysts, and the rest of it, it's just this kind of hyper paranoia about building data centers and the consequences of data centers." "This completely fake meme about water use, which is just factually not true, which is just running wild through the public discussion that somehow these data centers are basically destroying all the water, which is this completely insane idea. That factor is [such] a bigger factor holding us back than anything involving external trade." "External trade is the thing that's easy to talk about. It's all of our internal issues that are much, much more important." With Navin Girishankar CSIS Economic Security and Technology Department

As AI systems rapidly expand, communities across America are seeing massive data centers suddenly appear near their neighborhoods. These facilities consume enormous amounts of electricity, water, land, and infrastructure resources, driving up utility costs, straining local housing markets, and changing the quality of life for families who have lived in these communities for generations. Big Tech companies promote these projects as innovation, while government officials increasingly frame them as national security infrastructure. When residents in Utah protested one proposed data center in their community, Kevin O’Leary dismissed them as “foreign agents,” further fueling frustration among locals who say their concerns are being ignored. Despite widespread opposition, local, state, and federal authorities continue pushing these projects forward. Many residents worry about long-term impacts on jobs, family stability, property values, farmland, water access, wildlife, and the broader ecosystem surrounding these rapidly expanding industrial sites. At the same time, questions are growing about whether this infrastructure is laying the foundation for a future built around digital ID systems, AI surveillance, and centralized technological control, while everyday citizens are left paying the economic and environmental costs. HealthRanger joins me to break it all down.

Hundreds of billions of dollars are being spent right now constructing massive facilities to house and run the computers that are needed for the spiking demand for artificial intelligence But as those centers are being built, communities across the country are in open revolt, protesting about the enormous amounts of water and energy that these centers require. Could those data centers be placed in outer space or out at sea? Host William Brangham discussed that idea with Michael E. Webber, author of "Power Trip: The Story of Energy.” Horizons from PBS News, dives into the science, health, technology and environmental issues making headlines each week.

Residents in Crowell, Texas are being forced to live with constant artificial daylight because of Google’s AI data center that is being built right next to them Residents report severe 24/7 light pollution that creates artificial daylight at night (photo proof shown) The facility runs 24/7 with intense lighting that turns the sky bright all night long There is also a constant mechanical humming noise from cooling fans, HVAC systems, and generators that runs nonstop The project is a massive new hyperscale AI data center being built right next to the tiny rural town of Crowell with a population of around 800 people There are real health effects to humans for living with artificial sunlight at night Disruption of melatonin production leading to insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, and other issues. It’s described as “permanent jet lag.” These are exactly the complaints residents are making right now The project is part of Google’s massive $40 billion Texas investment: Google (Alphabet) announced plans for multiple hyperscale data centers in the region Residents from both political parties have packed town halls to protest the project, citing light pollution, noise, water usage, and threats to rural life, dark skies, and farming. Their leaders don’t care Residents feel the economic promises don’t outweigh the quality of life damage

REPORT: Utah officials just approved Kevin O’Leary’s massive AI data center project after furious residents packed the meeting demanding it be stopped. Now locals are asking why a project tied to a foreign-born billionaire is suddenly being protected under the label of a “military operation,” while the people who actually live there are treated like they don’t even have a voice. The outrage exploded after a county commissioner snapped at concerned residents, telling them, “For hell sakes, grow up,” as citizens warned about environmental destruction, loss of local control, and corporations taking over entire communities to fuel the AI boom. Despite overwhelming backlash, the commission approved the project anyway, then reportedly walked out as residents continued protesting. These are the same people who pay property taxes, elect local officials, and are supposed to have representation in their own town. Instead, many left feeling ignored, dismissed, and completely shut out of the process. And if this is how AI infrastructure projects are going to be forced through across America, Utah may be a glimpse of what’s coming next. Watch ZeeeMediaOfficial's full report before this becomes the new normal nationwide.

This young woman from Georgia, explains to us what’s happening right now in her community. Georgia Power is expanding power lines to support a massive new data center, and they’re using eminent domain to take homes and land from families — including her childhood home behind her. She explains that homeowners have no choice as the utility seizes property by force. This isn’t isolated to Georgia. The explosive growth of data centers is happening across at least 38 states, driven by the massive AI boom as tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Meta build out enormous computing infrastructure. In several states — including Georgia — utilities are using eminent domain to expand high-voltage power lines needed to feed these power-hungry facilities. Have you seen or heard about eminent domain being used for data centers or power lines in your area?

I started digging into the rapid expansion of hyperscale data centers and energy projects in Ohio and what I found raised serious questions about transparency, public oversight, and who these deals are really benefiting. JobsOhio was created in 2011 and funded through the state’s liquor enterprise revenue, billions generated from public assets. Yet it operates as a private nonprofit that is not subject to traditional open-records laws. Today, Ohio is being marketed as “deployment ready” for hyperscale data centers, massive facilities that require constant, industrial-scale electricity and water usage. To support that demand, new energy infrastructure is being proposed across the state, including advanced nuclear projects like Oklo in Pike County. Policy changes like Ohio Senate Bill 52 shifted how energy siting decisions are handled at the local level, while utilities such as American Electric Power have proposed new tariffs and grid upgrades to support the surge in data center demand. Communities across Ohio are raising concerns about farmland loss, water usage, electricity costs, and the lack of early public input before these deals are shaped. Regardless of where you stand on development, one thing should be non-negotiable: Transparency. Accountability. And a real voice for the people of Ohio. Public resources and infrastructure should serve the public first. Decisions that shape our land, our water, and our power grid should not happen behind closed doors. If you care about your community, your property, and your future, now is the time to start asking questions and paying attention.

I started digging into the rapid expansion of hyperscale data centers and energy projects in Ohio and what I found raised serious questions about transparency, public oversight, and who these deals are really benefiting. JobsOhio was created in 2011 and funded through the state’s liquor enterprise revenue, billions generated from public assets. Yet it operates as a private nonprofit that is not subject to traditional open-records laws. Today, Ohio is being marketed as “deployment ready” for hyperscale data centers, massive facilities that require constant, industrial-scale electricity and water usage. To support that demand, new energy infrastructure is being proposed across the state, including advanced nuclear projects like Oklo in Pike County. Policy changes like Ohio Senate Bill 52 shifted how energy siting decisions are handled at the local level, while utilities such as American Electric Power have proposed new tariffs and grid upgrades to support the surge in data center demand. Communities across Ohio are raising concerns about farmland loss, water usage, electricity costs, and the lack of early public input before these deals are shaped. Regardless of where you stand on development, one thing should be non-negotiable: Transparency. Accountability. And a real voice for the people of Ohio. Public resources and infrastructure should serve the public first. Decisions that shape our land, our water, and our power grid should not happen behind closed doors. If you care about your community, your property, and your future, now is the time to start asking questions and paying attention.

This is horrifying News cameras catch a private Muslim security force in Texas “You have these grants that were for minority communities and it was set up to be that before we had any of this invasion of all of these people from all over the planet that have come to this country and now they're using that as a workaround to basically install these massive centers that have Sharia law and their own Sharia police force. This is all so insane that I can't even believe that it's true, but you see that it's true right there. (It’s caught on camera) So again, the question is, what are any of these elected officials going to do about this?” “This is scary stuff”

🚨THE ONE REAL CONCERN NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT AI data centers are being forced into communities under the banner of “progress.” But one issue alone is enough for the people to protest: TONAL NOISE. That constant industrial hum. The low frequency vibration. The mechanical drone from fans, cooling systems, transformers, and generators running day and night. This is not “background noise.” This invades homes. It disrupts sleep. It agitates the nervous system. It destroys peace, property value, farm animal reproductive systems, and quality of life. There is a reason militaries have used sound and tonal noise as psychological torture. Now imagine that same kind of relentless noise embedded permanently in your community, serving Big Tech, AI, surveillance, and data harvesting. No tax incentive is worth that. No corporate promise is worth that. No county commission has the moral right to trade away the peace and health of the people for an AI data center deal. Tonal noise alone is enough. The people have every right to protest before the hum becomes permanent. Byron Donalds and Jay Collins are PRO AI DATA CENTERS. The ONLY Candidate standing up and saying HELL NO to these massive community impact projects is Paul Renner. Renner is a HARD PASS on AI Data Centers. Listen...here's why
