🚨Secretary Chris Wright: "Bernie has it wrong on both points." THE FACTS: ✔️The U.S. must lead in AI to protect our national security—NOT China. ✔️States that have reduced their production of electricity have higher costs—this is not a result of AI data centers.

DAVID SACKS: “President Trump has been really clear that consumers should not have to pay higher rates for electricity because of data centers … He said let the AI companies become power companies. Let them stand up their own power generation … with these new data centers.”

DATA CENTERS: On All-In, David Friedberg & David Sacks warn the real AI threat is regulatory panic: activist campaigns & red tape strangling data centers, energy & compute while China builds. America's lead is narrow. Unilateral disarmament threatens both our economy and our national security.

.Secretary Chris Wright: The result of 'Green' energy sources has been more expensive electricity in the United States, a less reliable grid, and the continual outsourcing of energy intensive jobs. This is absolutely the wrong direction and President Donald J. Trump got elected to stop that nonsense.

Elon Musk explains how data centers in Space could help the US compete with China in AI “Given that Chinese AI companies are doing as well as they are with a relatively small amount of compute, it seems that if they had a lot of compute, there’s a good chance they would be the leaders. The constraints on AI are essentially electricity and AI chips. China is very strong in digital AI, and it has far more electricity than the United States. In fact, China already has more electricity than the United States, Europe and India combined. The US government can prevent US companies from using Chinese models, but it can’t stop the rest of the world from using them. That won’t stop China from becoming the leader in AI. Digital intelligence comes down to how much AI compute, how many chips and how much electricity you have. The current constraint is electricity outside China. In China, the constraint is chips. China is also closer than most people realize to solving the lithography problem, which would enable it to make AI chips in very large volumes. Once we address the power constraint with AI data centers in space, the constraint will once again be chips outside China.”

Data centers are important for many reasons BUT consumers should NOT have to pay higher bills to facilitate the huge amounts of electricity they eat up. The richest companies on the planet are building these centers and they should bear the costs — not you.

Rantz: There are a lot of blue states and blue cities that are saying, we want to put a moratorium on building data centers in their areas. China wants to build them. That is an increasingly, I would say, national security concern that all of us have to have.

.Secretary Chris Wright on the NESE Pipeline groundbreaking: If you look at the states booming in the U.S., they have growing energy supplies. The states that have stagnated have shrinking energy supplies. Unfortunately, NY is in the latter, but it shouldn’t be. This is a step forward.

2025 in Review: National Security American farmland is not for sale to our enemies. Foreign adversaries, led by Communist China, have increased their ownership of U.S. farmland by 1,000% under the Biden Admin… often near our military bases. That is not economics. That is a national security threat. Under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, Dept. of Agriculture launched the National Farm Security Action Plan to stop foreign control of our land, our food supply, and our future. American farmland is not for sale to our enemies, and it never will be. We will defend the United States of America - always. 🇺🇸
