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
>>1477286Good post
>>1477194OPie grew up near a windmill and has brane cancer .These data centres Will run off nice clean diesel generators
>>1477286I will never understand why people insist on shilling for fossil fuels for free.
>>1477423Anon, fossil fuels are the way we produce enough electricity for everyone to use. Simple as, full stop. Solar isn't practical, wind isn't practical, nuclear is but nobody wants it in their town - at some point, if people want a serious alternative, they're going to have to get good and comfortable with having a nuke plant in every city polity regardless of the risk of meltdown or misuse.If they're not willing to accede to that, then fossil fuels it is. We don't actually have any realistic alternatives.
>>1477448>Solar isn't practical >wind isn't practical>J6th was a peaceful protest>Trump isn't a pedophile>Good deserved to be shotmaybe you're just retarded
>>1477423I prefer nuclear and solar, actually. You asked for specific facts, so I provided them.Facts don't care about your feelings
>>1477194>Trump's disastrous energy policy>He will be requiring AI companies to find their own way to power their data centersWouldn't surprise me if China pefects & mass produces fusion reactors before Murrican't.
>>1477463>He will be requiring AI companies to find their own way to power their data centersThis is probably the quickest way towards fusion energy tbqh
>>1477465China will probably invent viable fusion reactors first, then lease such out to Murrican't AI datacenters, thus China will get richerNo wonder a certain company in Shanghai is investing in the development of such. But then, thery're rich enough to do so via all the money they've made from gacha games . Even more money to be made.It's fusion that'll be the future.
>>1477211How many times do we need to have this conversation? >>1468765 This is just the main points, there's hundreds of others.>>1477250He did though. Try reading.
>>1477475>>>1477250 #>He did though. Try readingHe knows that, he's just salty and assblasted. Probably malding too
>>1477475You should let your bosses know that it doesn't become true just because you keep baselessly posting it
>>1477246God I hate the environment so much bros. Things were so much better with DDT, CFC and Leaded water
>>1477484libs pretend we live in a meritocracy, but refuse to give power to the corporations that merit it the mostlike the local faggot who keeps complaining that corps were allowed to fire people that weren't vaxed. fuck you shill, corporations know better and you deserved to be fired
>>1477484>God I hate the environment so much bros.Yeah we know when you started throwing molotovs into small business and teslas.
>he's just salty and assblasted. Probably malding tooBut enough about 1477475
>>1477486corporations do know better and im tired of pretending they dont. this is what separates us from the libs and their pet somalis>>1477487this is terrorism and we should sic ICE on anyone who besmirches tesla. an assault on tesla is like an assault on the president himself! conservatives have always been the real victims and we have been turning the other cheek for far too long
>>1477496>corporations do know better and im tired of pretending they dontExactly! Abolish ICE!Corps have stated which workers they want, and they're not white or american
>>1477448>Solar isn't practicalWhy? Cause its free? You fucking idiot?
