The regime is becoming more and more sensitive to voter frustration with the lack of affordability and is looking for scapegoats.

Trump trade adviser Navarro says administration may force data center builders like Meta to ‘internalize’ costs​

President Donald Trump’s trade and manufacturing adviser Peter Navarro said on Sunday that the White House may force data center builders to absorb their costs as voters continue to sour on the economy and utility prices soar.
The article goes on to say......
The pact called for $15 billion in new generation capacity within PJM, to be financed by tech companies, and urged the operator to hold an emergency auction to procure the power. The move comes as the administration simultaneously fights offshore wind projects in the Northeast, some of which are fully permitted or under construction.

Don prefers to use coal fired power plants which contribute to high CO2 levels and thus accelerates climate change instead of allowing the completion of renewable energy plants under construction. For its part, Meta is being proactive in already lining up sources of power.

Meta lines up massive supply of nuclear power to energize AI data centers​

Meta has cut a trio of deals to power its artificial intelligence data centers, securing enough energy to light up the equivalent of about 5 million homes.

The parent company of Facebook on Friday announced agreements with TerraPower, Oklo and Vistra for nuclear power for its Prometheus AI data center that is being built in New Albany, Ohio. Meta announced Prometheus, which will be a 1-gigawatt cluster spanning across multiple data center buildings, in July. It’s anticipated to come online this year.

Financial terms of the deals with TerraPower, Oklo and Vistra were not disclosed.

The Mark Zuckerberg-led Meta said in a statement on Friday that the three deals will support up to 6.6 gigawatts of new and existing clean energy by 2035. A single gigawatt, according to a general industry standard for utilities, can power about 750,000 homes.


Will the rubes allow themselves to be duped again? It's likely.

It's true, data centers need cheap, reliable energy, not expensive, unreliable wind and solar.

Last inflation reading was 2.4%. During Biden and the dems, it was never that low. Never.

Not to worry, SM reactors will come on soon.
In fact DJT is accelerate their construction.
"Trump is actively accelerating the construction of nuclear power, including Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and advanced designs, to meet rapidly rising electricity demand driven by AI, data centers, and manufacturing. Executive orders signed in May 2025 aim to quadruple U.S. nuclear capacity by 2050, with specific goals to start 10 large reactors by 2030 and expedite test reactors by 2026".

The more concerning aspect of the Orange Grifter's policy initiatives is favoring fossil fuels over renewables. But nice try.

Fossil fuels are awesome.

You should definitely stop using them in any way.
