Trump steps up to shield Americans from Bidens disastrous energy policyHe will be requiring AI companies to find their own way to power their data centers.The Luddite left is left seething and malding.https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/jan/13/trump-microsoft-data-centers-electricityTrump says Microsoft will pay more for its datacenters’ electricityMicrosoft’s president said firm won’t accept tax breaks in towns for its datacenters as backlash against facilities growDonald Trump said he is partnering with tech companies to ensure the large energy-hungry datacenters vital for AI do not drive up electricity bills in the US. On Tuesday, the US president announced that Microsoft was “first up”.“We are the ‘HOTTEST’ Country in the World, and Number One in AI. Data Centers are key to that boom, and keeping Americans FREE and SECURE but, the big Technology Companies who build them must ‘pay their own way.’” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Thank you, and congratulations to Microsoft.”Brad Smith, Microsoft’s president, outlined the company’s plan at an event on Tuesday near the White House titled Community-First AI Infrastructure. He said the initiative aimed to minimize water use and ensure that Microsoft’s electricity usage does not add to individuals’ utility rates. In towns where Microsoft has datacenters, he said, the company would pay its property taxes and accept neither tax reductions nor electricity rate discounts.“Like major buildouts of the past, AI infrastructure is expensive and complex,” Smith wrote in a blogpost on Tuesday. “This revives a longstanding question: how can our nation build transformative infrastructure in a way that strengthens, rather than strains, the local communities where it takes root?”
god you're esl
This is to distract from the fact trump is a pedophile and the American people know it.>>1477177
What energy policy, specifically, did Biden implement that was disastrous?
>>1477211Executive Order 14008 – Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and AbroadExecutive Order 13990 – Protecting Public Health and the Environment and Restoring ScienceKeystone XL Pipeline Permit Revocation (January 2021)Pause and Review of Federal Oil and Gas Leasing on Public Lands (2021)Methane Emissions Reduction Action Plan (2021)Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (2021)American Rescue Plan Act of 2021Inflation Reduction Act of 2022Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (Inflation Reduction Act provision)Stock Buyback Excise Tax (Inflation Reduction Act provision)EPA Power Plant Emissions Regulations (2022–2024 rulemakings)Fuel Economy (CAFE) Standards Tightening (NHTSA/EPA, 2021–2024)
>>1477246NTA but you didn't answer the question.
>>1477250Which one of those is not a specific policy? Oh wait, you're just acting assblasted, lad.Better luck next time chap
>>1477250>>1477251If he tries to make it about oil, a reminder that trump just tried to give public land with oil on it for almost free and the oil companies said 'no'>>1475521
>>1477194I bet this is going to involve just strapping a fuckload of diesel generators to them like Musk did with his Grok centre and choking out the local neighbourhood with the fumes.
>>1477250Seems pretty fucking answered.Although Anon left out the Biden supply chain EOs.
>>1477211Here's a hint, he didn't.
>>1477194>Trump steps up to shield Americans from Bidens disastrous energy policyThis has nothing to do with whatever you're talking about and everything to do with AI data centers driving up power bills. And Trump has been championing, pushing, and deregulating AI like crazy. This is a step in the right direction, but you'll forgive me if I don't buy it helping much.>The Luddite left is left seething and malding.And I don't even know what you're trying to say there. The luddite left is mad that AI, which they hate, will have a harder time powering their data centers, which they also hate?
>>1477258>Muh Bidet dindu nuffin!!>Energy prices just spiked for no fuggin' reason>Leave my old politician responsible for everything I hate about politics alone!!!Nah.
>>1477261Prove it and it can't be the Texas electric grid, fuck face.
>>1477256>Biden supply chain EOslmao, you already were btfo on this
>>1477246>Rejoining the Paris agreement>BadGEE, I WONDER IF YOU ARE RUSSIAN?
>>1477274I'm fairly certain the Paris agreement benefited Russia, my guy.
>>1477273By who and when?
>>1477272Prove what?
>>1477261>>Energy prices just spiked for no fuggin' reasonyou the same retard pretending not offering leases mattered? they've had more than they need
>>1477250>La-la-la I can't hear you!LMAO!
>>1477280No I'm not. But what caused energy prices to spike, provably? And sauce it.
>>1477211>>1477258Executive Order 14008 – Halted+slowed federal fossil-fuel permitting and prioritised climate restrictions, reducing energy supply and increasing fuel and electricity prices.Executive Order 13990 – environmental rules increasing cost of oil, gas, and power, raising energy production costs. passed on to consumers.Keystone Pipeline Permit Revocation (2021) – Reduced expected future oil transport capacity. contributed to higher long-term fuel price expectations.Federal Oil and Gas Leasing Pause (2021) – Delayed new drilling on public lands, constrained supply and increased price pressure in energy markets.Methane Emissions Reduction Action Plan (2021) – Rules that increased operating costs for natural gas producers causing higher natural gas and electricity pricesAmerican Rescue Plan Act of 2021 – dumped $1.9 trillion into the economy during supply-constrained conditions directly increasing inflation across goods, energy, and housing.Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (2021) – billions in new federal spending, increasing demand for energy, materials, and labor, contributing to inflationary pressure.Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 – Increased federal taxes and regulations on energy producers, raising costs while failing to reduce inflation.Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (IRA provision) – Reduced capital investment incentives by discouraging energy infrastructure expansion and contributing to higher long-term costs.Stock Buyback Excise Tax (IRA provision) – Penalized capital allocation, reducing investment in energy production and efficiency improvements.EPA Power Plant Emissions Regulations (2022–2024) – Forced early retirement or costly retrofits of fossil-fuel plants, reducing electricity supply+increasing power prices.Tightened CAFE Fuel Economy Standards (2021–2024) – Increased vehicle production costs and reduced availability of lower-cost gasoline vehicles, raising transportation costs for consumers
>>1477284no, its the other faggot
