#Iraq WMD intelligence by CIA was a hoax. Political necessity was the cause.
#Iran imminent threat or imminent nuclear break out by CIA was a hoax. Political necessity was the cause.
Now election integrity, due to interference from #China, is the new intelligence from CIA. Is this another hoax? Meant to prevent the inevitable washout in mid terms? Or to set the stage for what happens post mid terms?

'a secret about the MAGA movement that isn’t a secret at all, because they keep saying it out loud: they know they can’t win a fair fight in November. They’ve seen the same numbers you have. They’ve watched the special elections. They’ve read the internal polling...a raving, senile, deeply unpopular president presiding over an economy held together with tariff ductAI stock market handwavium and duct tape, and the Iran forever war are a recipe for an electoral slaughterhouse'

It’s weird that being called a ‘communist’ is apparently more damaging than being outed as a pedophile and a rapist. 🤔

The #AI boom is gobbling up power faster than ever
By Hannah Beckler, June 7, 2026
Excerpt: "The data center boom is accelerating.
"A Business Insider analysis of US data center permits reveals a staggering escalation in data center power use. Data centers across the US are growing in number and in size. If all data centers permitted through 2025 come online, they will use between 224.3 terawatt-hours and 358.8 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, an increase of 50% over the previous year across the range, Business Insider's analysis found.
"At the midpoint, that's more than all the #electricity used by any one US state in 2024, except Texas.
"The vast majority of this power use is driven by #hyperscale data centers, mammoth facilities that use 40 megawatts or more each, Business Insider estimates.
"#TechGiants have an insatiable appetite for more computing power to fund their AI ambitions. In 2025, permits were issued for 176 new data centers across 34 states — the most new permits in one year since the first was issued in 1976, Business Insider found. Many of them are mammoth facilities destined for rural areas — enormous complexes blanketing #prairies, #GreenSpaces, and #farmland.
"#AmazonCorp's planned 14-building data center complex in #RidgelandMS, would transform nearly 800 acres of rural #woodland. In the village of #MountPleasantWI, Microsoft's nine data center buildings would command a collective footprint of over 5.2 million square feet built on a property nearly the size of New York City's Central Park, according to planning documents. And just outside #EagleMountainOT, #QTS — one of the nation's biggest data center operators — is building one that is expected to demand between 1.9 and 3 terawatt-hours a year once fully online, according to Business Insider's estimate. On average, that's the same amount of electricity used by 227,000 US homes.
"The race by tech companies to reach ever-greater AI ambitions has sparked a sweeping backlash from local residents and state and local officials wary of #Datacenter impacts on the #environment, economy, and #communities. And development-friendly lawmakers could face a reckoning in this year's #midterms, in which data centers are emerging as a key issue for many voters."

CW: USpol
Trump is now floating the US Federal government taking over the administration of elections from many states and counties.
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-says-republicans-should-nationalize-voting-least-15-places-2026-02-02/Why would he push for that? Well, because "The dispersed responsibility for running elections also makes it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to rig U.S. elections at the national level." https://www.ncsl.org/elections-and-campaigns/election-administration-at-state-and-local-levels

The Missouri Senate has passed a redistricting plan that could give Republicans an additional U.S. House seat at next year's midterms. Opponents have announced a referendum petition that could force a statewide vote on the map. @AssociatedPress has more.

I''m usually more vocal on UK politics but the timing of this Birdsite -> Mastodon migration and the #usmidterms means these are key moments (sorry for posts from The Other Place)
