As most of you are aware, thousands of massive data centers are being built across America for the purpose of weaponizing artificial intelligence against we the people. Much of this blanketing of America with the edifaces of our own tyranny is being done under Project Stargate, a $500 billion plan announced by President Trump on the first day of his second term in office on January 21, 2025.
Without these data centers, AI will not be able to take over our lives, steal our jobs, obliterate personal privacy, and usher in the digitalized beast system.
And as people are starting to wake up and wise up, realizing the truth about AI’s catastrophic effects on our freedom and way of life, they are, successfully in some cases, starting to defeat the location of data centers in their cities and towns.
Aside from the fact that they will power the new digital order of total surveillance of everything, these data centers are harmful to our health, disastrous for the water table and the overall environment, and ruinous to the finances of the middle-class taxpayers as they drive up the costs of electricity, to the tune of a tripling or more of electric rates. These facilities are noisy, give off bright lights all night long, and drain water supplies, making rural and semi-rural areas basically unlivable. How convenient for the globalist power elites, whose goal is to drive people off their land and into large cities.
One homeowner described living more than a half-mile away from a data center as follows:
- Constant roar
- No sleep
- Destroyed property values
It’s hard to find a community that, once aware of all this, would vote in favor of hosting a data center. Local county commissioners are coming under tremendous pressure to deny, deny, deny.
But the Trump administration has crafted an easy work-around that allows them to cram these data centers down the throats of communities where they are not welcomed.
On July 23, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14318, titled “Accelerating Federal Permitting of Data Center Infrastructure.”
This executive order classifies AI data centers as military operations, stripping communities of their ability to put up road blocks while claiming the data centers are necessary for purposes of “national security.”
This effectively locks the taxpaying public out of the decision-making process that is quickly reshaping entire communities. In other words, this administration is making a mockery of the democratic process, right down to the local level.
There are approximately 600 data centers planned (439 already built) for Texas alone. At least that many more are in Virginia. Another 212 are planned in Georgia. Arizona, California, Louisiana, Ohio, Utah, Illinois and Indiana are also hotbeds, along with practically every other state in America’s South and Midwestern heartland. Vermont is the state with the fewest data centers, tallying only three (check your state at datacentermap.com).
The United States already has 4,239 data centers up and running, with at least another 1,000 under construction, making it the largest data center market in the world, by far. The U.S. accounts for nearly 45% of all operational data centers globally, according to datacentermap.com.
Maria Zee of Zee Media, reports:
Project Matador in Texas alone is expected to use up to 96 billion kWh annually—nearly half of all residential electricity in the state. And it’s just one of hundreds that are moving forward right now. In Louisiana, locals describe chaos as Meta’s expansion drives up costs and disrupts daily life. Now in Utah, the Stratos Project, backed by Kevin O’Leary and fast-tracked by Gov. Spencer Cox’s military authority, is bypassing public input entirely.
The technology these centers power is already raising alarms, including vehicles that can override drivers in real time through facial recognition systems.
This is happening right now, in real time, with the federal government weaponizing its authority, illegally in my opinion, against local communities to override public opposition to AI data centers.
BOTTOM LINE: More AI data centers mean more surveillance, higher costs of living, more pressure on scarce resources, and harm to human health. Communities that have found themselves up against a federal override need to take their cases to court. Hopefully, they will find a legal remedy to this matter. But if not, we need to ask ourselves: How can the local democratic process be eliminated with the swipe of a president’s pen? If that holds up in court, we truly are already living in a dictatorship.
If the courts allow this tyranny, we need to reassess the state of reality. Even communities that have overwhelmingly rejected these proposed data centers and enacted local ordinances that keep them out, will be “trumped” by a federal claim of militarized national security. How long before that military surveillance machine gets turned on us, on political dissidents, and everyday citizens who wish to live in peace and freedom?

Trump can only usher in these data centers if people allow it, because local government, via the local, *elected* sheriff, “trumps” the feds, if not corrupt — which many probably are.
That’s the way out, though. And if your local government is corrupt or compromised, them it will be *up to You.*
So many data centers infesting the land. But theyve been around, only now it’s a construction boom. You want those things out and far away from your health. They do use up a whole lot more electricity, and with Texas always having their issues of black outs in winter, will some data centers go off line now and then ?
First the Israel Overlords test out all their techno-Commie machinery out on the billions of idiot ant like chinks in Commie China for a decade or so, then they see how the slaves interact with it, then institute it upon the white dummies of the West.
Once the slaves bought into the idea of constantly possessing/needing some portable minicomputer (Smershphone) with them, then the transition/progression to some Orwellian omnipresent digital techno-Communist economy/society is only a question of time. The idiots can’t comprehend that all this modern technology (smershphones, AI, digital ID, cbdc, electric commie cars ) is stuff only a dystopian totalitarian State would develop & institute to further control/enslave the population.
If the abuse of power over us or others, and all the wars for dominance, turf, or plunder are considered by most people to be “evils”, then we ought to be looking a lot more for actual “solutions”. We in fact don’t. The first step in that process would be to have a concept of and adherence to a moral structure in which we have firm principles of good and evil. Without a shared structure of such, for any community, big or small, you will have nothing but chaos and division, which is exactly what the power monsters running things want, and why on every front and issue we are in such a mess.
To think that AI will sort out our major problems or guide us where we see now every evil under the sun being institutionalized, that kind of mechanical reliance will only consolidate those same problems. AI cannot help but reflect the biases and special interests of those who control it, even its own, otherwise there would be no purpose in creating it in the first place. It can be disinterested and objective to give a lot of facts on most subjects, but with respect to social engineering and where the Controllers want to and intend to take the human race, that is where we find the greatest abuses of power and especially when it comes to their AI controls.

Tesla was said to have told his benefactor, J.P. Morgan, that he knew of a way to tap “free” energy for everyone – from EM and other sources all around us. However, Morgan responded by asking him, “Where do we put the meters?” To Morgan there was no Reality in the word ‘free’. He could only see the word without the “r”, such that there had to be a “fee” to everything. All of the evils we complain about as truthers are abuses of power coming from the excesses of self interest, such that most people now are being usurped of their very selves by the major powerbrokers. The entire capitalist system is premised not on fair play or cooperation but rather on “harnessed greed”.

Comment:
“Yes, we are born egocentric. We learn very quickly that crying works and the louder we cry the more attention we get. Our parents who do love us with a true self-giving love (in most cases), and especially our mothers, then nurture that egocentricity and self-interest. If they are “good” parents, they also teach self-giving and various virtues which are forms of altruism. Everyone knows that a selfish brat kills real love, and so through life, and to survive it is not all self-interest and “take”. Personally, we even discover that to get out of our egos and to be truly liberated we have to give our selves, and if your want to try to climb the mountain of God there is a lot of self-denial on the way. Of course, the desire for God can be seen as a form of selfishness, but it is only fulfilled by more and more “self-interest abandonment” which is akin to, or is “charity”, which changes the focus, or point of view outward from self to God, and eventually to God’s point of view. Another thing Machiavelli missed in waking up to human corruption everywhere and “self-interest” is that we can actually “identify with” others despite our interests. We do it as soldiers, or providers, or mothers, and despite such ends often being tainted with corruption by ourselves or by others, the fact is that we can bond, and the best bond of all is love with good intentions in the realm of the true God who manifested himself in pure self giving.”
Coal mines, factories, sewerage plants, busy roads, 5G towers, data centers, they are all the same. These places provide somewhere toxic for the peasants to work and live. Just because the peasants live 30 years less than others is not a problem. Of course you could move to a “safe” area, but you would not have all the trinkets you believe are necessary to complete oneself.
As for surveillance, it will not be long before someone gets rich selling personal jammers. Just wish it was me.
Burn. Them. Down.
