You don't see toxic data centers at Mar-a-Lago or at Elon Musk's house. Why? Because they think they are the only class of people that deserve clean land, air, and water. The decision to quickly build these data centers in rural places, in Memphis, in Mississippi, are purposeful.

The Trump regime is looking for immigrant detention camps big enough to hold up to 3,000 children. At an industry roundtable discussion, officials wouldn't say exactly where or when they need them, only that they’re expecting a “surge.” New from me in @prospect.org.
