  5. With First-of-Its-Kind Bill, #BernieSanders and #AOC Propose #Moratorium on New #AI #DataCenters

    “These massive facilities are sucking up precious #water resources, paving over #farmland, driving #ClimateChange, and disrupting the fabric of communities,” said one supporter of the new legislation.

    by Jake Johnson, Mar 25, 2026

    "Two of the leading progressives in the US Congress, Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, announced legislation on Wednesday that would impose a nationwide moratorium on the construction of new artificial intelligence data centers amid mounting concerns over their insatiable consumption of power and water resources, impacts on the climate, and other harms.

    "Sanders’ (I-Vt.) office said in a press release announcing the #ArtificialIntelligence #DataCenterMoratorium Act that the construction pause would remain in effect 'until strong national safeguards are in place to protect workers, consumers, and communities, defend privacy and #CivilRights, and ensure these technologies do not harm our #environment.'

    "Sanders and #OcasioCortez (D-NY) are set to formally introduce their legislation at a press conference on Wednesday at 4 pm ET.

    "Food & Water Watch (#FWW), which last year became the first national organization in the US to call for a total moratorium on the approval of new AI data centers, celebrated the first-of-its-kind bill and called on other members of Congress to 'move quickly to sponsor, champion, and pass' it. FWW’s groundbreaking call for a national AI data center moratorium was later echoed by hundreds of advocacy organizations at the state and national levels.

    " 'We need a halt to the explosive growth of new AI data center construction now, because political and community leaders across the country have been caught completely off guard by this aggressive, profit-hungry industry,' Mitch Jones, FWW’s managing director of policy and litigation, said in a statement Wednesday. 'It has yet to be determined if—not how—the industry can ever operate in a manner that sufficiently protects people and society from the profusion of inherent hazards and harms that data centers bring wherever they appear.'

  10. USA, le radici ideologiche del socialista che governerà New York

    Con oltre il 50% dei voti, Zohran Mamdani ha vinto la corsa a sindaco di New York City dopo una campagna elettorale impressionante. Era stato demonizzato come "comunista" da Donald Trump e dall'establishment. Ha unito il contatto diretto con le persone con la sua presenza particolarmente efficace sui social media. Ma da dove provengono le sue idee? Come si collegano alla storia del socialismo americano e alla storia della sua famiglia? (nella foto in alto, Zohran Mamdani con i genitori, Mira Nair e Mahmood Mamdani) di Carlos Corrochano Pérez, ricercatore in teoria politica e teoria delle relazioni internazionali alla City University di New York, già consulente di politica internazionale ed europea presso la Vicepresidenza seconda del governo spagnolo, da Nueva Sociedad […]

  12. #AlexandriaOcasioCortez defends decision to support military aid for Israel

    The New York lawmaker has faced a deluge of criticism for backing funding for Israel's Iron Dome defence system for a second time

    from #MiddleEastEye
    By #MEE staff
    Published date: 21 July 2025 21:11 BST

    The New York lawmaker voted against an amendment by Republican #MarjorieTaylorGreene last week that sought to block $500m in Congress' annual defence spending bill for Israel's #IronDome programme.

    Fellow #Democrats #RashidaTlaib and #IlhanOmar [as well as Democrats #AlGreen of Texas, #SummerLee of Pennsylvania and Republican #ThomasMassie of Kentucky - PL] had supported Taylor Greene's amendment, which eventually lost in a 422-6 vote.

    In a post on X on Saturday, #OcasioCortez claimed that Greene's amendment did "nothing to cut off offensive aid to #Israel nor end the flow of #US munitions being used in #Gaza".

  21. #OcasioCortez Warns #Trump #NYCRally Was Primer for Taking Power 'by Force'

    "That's what they're doing when they're inciting violence and hatred against #Latinos, against #BlackAmericans, against Americans who don't have children."

    Oct 28, 2024

    "U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned Monday that the hate-filled campaign rally held by former Republican President Donald Trump at #MadisonSquareGarden in New York City was meant to further prime supporters for another #January 6 - style attempt to seize power by force if Democratic Vice President #KamalaHarris wins next month's election.

    "Sunday's event—which drew comparisons to a #1939NaziRally that packed the iconic Midtown Manhattan arena—featured speakers including billionaire #ElonMusk, conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and comedian #TonyHinchcliffe, who called the U.S. territory of #PuertoRico a 'floating island of garbage.'

    "Although the Trump campaign has attempted to distance the GOP presidential candidate from Hinchcliffe's bigoted remarks, Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said during a Monday interview on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe' that Sunday's event was 'not just a presidential rally,' it was 'a hate rally.' "

  28. 'Extremely serious': AOC becomes first progressive to call for Menendez resignation

    New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday became the first progressive House Democrat to call on Sen. Bob Menendez to resign following the former Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair's indictment last week on federal bribery charges.

    Menendez (D-N.J.) and his wife, Nadine Menendez, were charged Friday with accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes—including gold bars, cash, home mortgage payments, and a Mercedes-Benz—from businessmen in exchange for influence. The indictment also accuses Menendez of giving "sensitive U.S. government information" to Egypt's dictatorship.

    Appearing on CBS' "Face the Nation," Ocasio-Cortez said that "the situation is quite unfortunate, but I do believe that it is in the best interest for Sen. Menendez to resign in this moment."

    "Consistency matters. It shouldn't matter whether it's a Republican or a Democrat. The details in this indictment are extremely serious. They involve the nature of not just his, but all of our seats in Congress," added Ocasio-Cortez, who is the vice-ranking member of the House Oversight Committee.

    February 2, 2023

    #Racist targeting of Rep. #IlhanOmar, which for years resulted in #deaththreats and opportunistic #smears, is well documented. But on Thursday, it reached something of a climax, a needless and incredibly depressing one, as #HouseRepublicans voted to kick her out of the #ForeignAffairs Committee.

    Omar's identity as a #Black #Muslim #woman with power was at the root of today's spectacle.

    #Omar, speaking before the vote, asked if it is any surprise that, given the GOP’s attempt to smear the first Black president as an un-American, African-born Muslim, that the party has now moved on to targeting a Black Muslim who was born in #Africa.

    #OcasioCortez (D-#NY.), defending #Omar on the House floor, accused her Republican colleagues voting to oust Omar of #racism. “This is about targeting women of color in the #UnitedStatesofAmerica,” she said.
