Inside the Rise of the Anti–Data Center Movement
Resistance to the facilities has become a left-wing rallying point, linking environmentalism, anti-Big Tech politics, immigration activism, Native American issues, and “anti-imperialism.” - Stu Smith

Dems Fight Trump's Push to Secure Mail-In Ballots
Dems Fight Trump's Push to Secure Mail-In Ballots:
Katherine Robertson, the chief counsel to AG Marshall, lamented that this is remotely controversial. “I think it’s very clear by the litigation against this rule so far that it has really become a red state, blue state issue,” she told “Washington Watch” guest host and former Congressman Jody Hice. “And you hate to think that election integrity is so polarizing and so partisan, but that is clearly the case.
