About this episode

Buck Sexton discusses the growing opposition to data centers in America and the implications for AI infrastructure development amid China's interests.

The battle over America’s data centers is heating up, and the stakes go far beyond local zoning fights. Buck breaks down why opposition to data centers is growing, how President Trump is pushing for faster AI infrastructure development, and why China has a major interest in seeing America’s buildout slowed down. The question is bigger than any one project: Can America address legitimate local concerns without surrendering its technological advantage in the global AI race?
