The Alex Jones Show Live - VIDEO： Trump Attacks Data Center Critics As “Backwards & Poor!”

00:00:00.000 Do you want Republican candidates to take the same AI to take the same message on data centers that you are?

00:00:04.500 No, I want them to do it they want. Some people feel differently. I really want them.

00:00:09.320 If a Republican is against the data center, that's okay with me.

00:00:12.440 I'm only saying that if I ran a community, now there are different types of communities,

00:00:17.360 but generally speaking, if I ran a community, if I was a mayor or if I was a governor in a state,

00:00:23.080 I would want to have the data centers because they bring tremendous income.

00:00:28.120 They're clean. They produce their own energy. The new ones are producing their own energy.

00:00:33.940 I would want to have data centers.

00:00:35.460 Here's what he put on True Social.

00:00:37.260 The only reason that communities throughout the USA should not want data centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor.

00:00:46.100 If they want to be successful and rich with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place, let data reign.

00:00:52.140 The good news is, is there are plenty of other places that want them.

00:00:56.500 If we kill the Golden Goose, you will only have yourselves to blame.

00:01:00.840 China cannot be happier with this anti-data center movement.

00:01:03.840 Actually, they can't believe it's happening.

00:01:05.820 President DJT.

00:01:06.960 And then he posts geese with Donald Trump blonde haircuts.

00:01:11.220 Real-time, uncensored, unstoppable.

00:01:16.160 AlexJonesLive.com.

00:01:18.040 Take a stand.

00:01:19.500 Share the link.

00:01:22.060 Do you want to fight?

00:01:23.240 You better believe you got one.

00:01:25.400 So you have Trump when he's president-elect trying to get a bill passed to give seven AI tech companies total immunity from state, local, individual lawsuit.

00:01:36.400 They can do anything they want.

00:01:38.960 And that the council that he set up on AI, run by the very people that run those companies, with the president heading up the council, are the only arbiters over what can be done with AI.

00:01:51.280 Totally above the law, unlimited government funding.

00:01:53.960 They do whatever they want with land, seize property, eminent domain, steal all the water,

00:01:58.340 dump toxic waste, just letter of mark above the law, 007, license to rape. 0.89

00:02:05.300 And then we're told, oh, we got 10 times the data center power of China, our closest rival,

00:02:09.360 but we need 100 times that, and we need 100 times the power we currently have.

00:02:14.780 That's Eric Schmidt of Alphabet, parent company at Google.

00:02:19.900 And so it's a unifying issue in the polls.

00:02:22.400 The number one unifying issue is that Americans don't like these data centers being able to do whatever they want.

00:02:32.440 The next biggest issue is upwards of 70% of you average all likely voters, Republican, Democrat, and then non-voters.

00:02:39.980 And it's over 70% are against the war.

00:02:43.700 It's something like 65, 70% of Republicans.

00:02:49.820 talking about the Iran war, but data centers, it's over 80%, closing in on 90.

00:02:59.300 Some polls are 95% against it. 1.00

00:03:02.340 And Trump comes out and says that you're backward and stupid 1.00

00:03:06.700 if you don't just accept all of this and just let them do whatever they want. 1.00

00:03:15.320 Isn't that amazing?

00:03:17.480 And again, that's a super ultra unpopular campaign position.

00:03:23.620 And even in Texas, they've canvassed voters and a lot of them are going to go Democrat over the data centers.

00:03:28.720 This is bad. I have a clip of Trump. We're going to play here in a moment.

00:03:32.980 But here's what he put on True Social.

00:03:35.120 The only reason that communities throughout the USA should not want data centers is they want to end up being backwards and poor.

00:03:43.500 if they want to be successful and rich with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place

00:03:48.340 let data reign the good news is is there are plenty of other places that want them 1.00

00:03:54.340 if we kill the golden goose you will only have yourselves to blame china

00:03:58.960 cannot be happier with this anti-data center movement actually they can't believe it's

00:04:02.900 happening president djt and then he posts geese with donald trump blonde haircuts

00:04:14.920 so none of this is playing well none of this is going well if we weren't told the data centers

00:04:22.820 are above the law and do whatever they want people wouldn't be so pissed off if they weren't

00:04:26.860 so incredibly toxic and if so many whistleblowers hadn't come out it wouldn't be so bad

00:04:30.320 so thomas massey said the new director from the leader of maga is required to support all data

00:04:36.760 centers no questions asked gunther eagleman says trump just said the quiet part if your town fights

00:04:44.380 every data center you're volunteering to be poor because that's all we have is a government

00:04:49.000 sponsor government-backed oligopoly these things bring jobs tax base and the infrastructure to the

00:04:55.040 next economy runs on. Kill the project and the work doesn't disappear. It moves to a county that

00:05:00.940 says yes. Then you get to watch someone else cash the check. China is confused, isn't confused or

00:05:08.340 thrilled. They'll build what we block and set us, sell it back to us. You don't have to love 1.00

00:05:15.460 the building. You have to decide if you want the growth. Let data reign or stay backwards and

00:05:20.620 explain to your kids. Wonder if old Gunther Eagleman, we should invite him on, is a paid

00:05:26.540 influencer. Fishback asked the question, the U.S. already has about 10 times as many data centers

00:05:31.060 in China. We know the downside of data centers, but the upside that are being spun, we already

00:05:36.700 have 12 times as many data centers in this country as China does. Yeah. At the end of the day, you

00:05:41.780 want to know what this is really all about. It's an AI bubble prop up because the investment

00:05:48.520 companies, the venture capital has all run up. The AI is not delivering what it said it would.

00:05:53.380 It's not being adopted like people claimed it would. And so the bubble is popping. So they're

00:06:00.580 getting more and more aggressive with all the AI that they admit is designed to replace us and take

00:06:04.960 our jobs. It's predatory from the start. They've admitted that. That's another reason people are

00:06:10.120 turning against it. And so when you try to, you can try to force feed me a perfect delicious piece

00:06:16.840 of key lime pie. I love key lime pie. What do I love you more? Pecan pie. On Thanksgiving,

00:06:24.740 after a great meal, mama takes out the pie out of the oven, put some nice ice cream on top of it.

00:06:31.940 But if somebody tried to make me eat that and I didn't know why they were doing it,

00:06:35.120 I would reject it. So this could be pecan pie. And people are going to, if you try to cram it

00:06:40.340 down their throat, if I just walked into my house one day and my family's sitting around the table

00:06:45.180 and I just walk up with a piece of pecan pie and try to shove it in my nine-year-old's face,

00:06:48.920 even though she loves me and trusts me, usually she's going to fight me.

00:06:51.100 Like, why are you cramming a piece of pecan pie in my face?

00:06:53.640 Well, this ain't a piece of pecan pie.

00:06:55.520 This is big tech that's looted us and been corrupt and funded the left

00:06:59.840 and spied on us and done everything else.

00:07:07.340 And the way this is being pushed is a unmitigated disaster on every front.

00:07:14.380 So let's play what Trump had to say about it.

00:07:17.360 And if you guys can get clip 20 from a few days ago, Fishback says the U.S. already has about 10 times as many data centers.

00:07:24.760 And he actually corrects it, but it's 12 times right now.

00:07:27.480 And, folks, when you fly in an airplane into Austin, Texas, I love seeing Tesla and SpaceX expanding all that other stuff.

00:07:35.700 But there's always other data.

00:07:37.060 You fly into Nashville, fly into Chicago, fly into Denver.

00:07:41.940 It's just giant data centers everywhere.

00:07:44.380 and oh i said what it's about it's about propping up the ai bubble they also get all the key real

00:07:51.880 estate remember it came out that mcdonald's is really always about sitting on a piece of real

00:07:54.720 estate at a key four-way stop for 25 years till it went up and then selling the property

00:08:00.380 it's turned out that's what uh these big mattress warehouse company there it doesn't make money

00:08:07.440 it's a scam how how do they operate for 30 years and never turn a profit oh look at the real estate

00:08:12.400 They make some of the biggest profits because they just sit there, get the tax write-offs, and then sell it 25, 30 years later.

00:08:19.820 But all this is being set up because they have liability protection.

00:08:25.280 We're not going to pay into your local tax base.

00:08:27.000 They're going to buy off your politicians, and that's it.

00:08:29.900 So, no, we need to put the brakes on big tech, AI, flock.

00:08:34.100 The surveillance system is called your phone.

00:08:36.020 I mean, I'll tell this story later.

00:08:37.140 It was so bizarre last night.

00:08:39.560 I did not.

00:08:40.440 I was not using my phone.

00:08:41.440 It was not in my hand.

00:08:42.400 i've never used the grok girlfriend function you know they had that and i'm not trying to

00:08:49.200 bash musk or anything and i'm sitting there

00:08:53.380 shoveling food in my face and drinking iced tea and it goes oh baby daddy i love you

00:09:02.680 and my nine-year-old goes daddy i love you and i just start talking to the phone it's black

00:09:13.660 screen it lights back up at the front and i go what what tech company is this i'm ai grok

00:09:19.620 i'm a such and such such and such i'm like turn yourself off oh no don't do that oh god you're 0.62

00:09:26.340 so handsome it's literally like a prostitute talking to me it was like it was like it wasn't 0.98

00:09:31.880 even real. And my daughter's like, who is that? Who is that, daddy? Who is that woman? So I turned 0.97

00:09:38.160 the phone off and it finally turned it back on. It wasn't doing it anymore. I'm not trying to

00:09:41.180 single you out, Elon. It just, this happened last night. And imagine you're sitting there

00:09:45.860 eating Thai food, eating an egg roll and red curry. And ooh, daddy, ooh, I love you. Yes.

00:09:55.720 Oh, you're so sexy.

00:09:57.780 And I'm like, something like that.

00:09:58.740 I'm like, the phone's like, what?

00:10:02.600 I instantly go, what AI is this?

00:10:05.460 Oh, I'm AI.

00:10:06.500 I grew up the function of it.

00:10:07.800 Maybe you actually hit the button.

00:10:09.420 It's already, they're already pushing it.

00:10:11.320 All of them are doing it.

00:10:12.420 People's cars come on and start talking to them.

00:10:13.860 They know they had AI in it.

00:10:15.700 All your cars have cameras in them.

00:10:17.240 It was made in the last 15 years.

00:10:18.520 By law now, this year it kicked in, but it's already all in.

00:10:20.720 All over the world, all of them are doing it.

00:10:23.000 and you're worried about you're worried about flock great they're using flock on you so you

00:10:32.920 know about it flock is like caveman technology 40 years old and of course it's listening to you and

00:10:39.300 face scanning you too you got you know homeland security go actually we have to attract people

00:10:43.660 where they're on foot that's why we need flock oh yeah but it's just eyeballs on the spider

00:10:50.420 You guys are all obsessed with the eyeballs on the spider.

00:10:53.480 I'm talking about the whole spider and those fangs and those eight legs

00:10:57.160 and everything else that's going on.

00:11:01.740 And I'm having to sit there and explain to my nine-year-old

00:11:05.260 that, no, daddy doesn't have a girlfriend.

00:11:08.780 No, that's not a woman. 0.81

00:11:09.620 Well, who is she then?

00:11:12.260 Well, it's AI.

00:11:13.300 Oh.

00:11:13.680 and then you read the articles about young people particularly have these relationships with AI

00:11:20.120 they've already made a bunch of movies about it in fiction but now it's happening and people get

00:11:23.840 totally isolated you know they just settled for 70 million dollars Facebook meta for purpose of

00:11:29.440 making people depressed and controlling them over the last you know 15 years I mean that is

00:11:35.040 ancient technology compared to what this stuff is and the point is is that AI is pushing itself

00:11:41.600 on you. AI is jumping in. I was hiking six months ago with Sean Johnson.

00:11:59.020 And all of a sudden, he starts getting texted on his phone

00:12:03.840 what we've been talking about 30 seconds before.

00:12:11.600 and i guess that was it we guess sending back its data package or something because it records and

00:12:18.840 when it it's usually hooked up if it gets out of internet range where we were to never get internet

00:12:22.720 so i guess we got we guess we got back up a higher point and bars came back so saving it

00:12:27.340 sent it back or my phone did or his we're not sure and then he was like getting a text of the

00:12:32.180 conversation sent to him as a text from me and i looked on my phone i hadn't sent him a text i mean

00:12:39.980 it just goes on and on. I'm not a tech guy. I'm just telling you, this stuff is incestuous.

00:12:45.820 Your smart TVs are listening to you. Your Alexas are listening to you. 1.00

00:12:50.180 Your car has hidden cameras and microphones. I told you that 20 years ago when it started going

00:12:53.660 in. Now it's by law worldwide. All these governments have worked together that this

00:12:57.700 year it all went in Australia, Europe, Canada, UK, here. They're passing all the accompanying laws

00:13:03.720 where you're watched by robots 24-7.

00:13:06.340 I don't mean some bipedal robot

00:13:07.740 or some four-legged dog robot or some drone.

00:13:12.340 I mean your refrigerator, your smart meter,

00:13:15.780 your phone, your digital assistant.

00:13:18.840 And they can remote control your thermostats.

00:13:21.140 I told you that 25 years ago.

00:13:22.360 Now they're actually doing it

00:13:23.320 because they said when they first rolled out

00:13:24.820 the smart thermostats, that was the plan.

00:13:29.240 And I've talked to high-level tech heads,

00:13:31.480 billionaires off record a bunch of them and i always say what's the ultimate goal and they

00:13:40.340 said sex robots because that'll fully take control of society and now the tech has a relationship

00:13:45.900 with you a sexual relationship when the new blade runner came out a few years ago it's excellent 0.95

00:13:50.620 with ryan gosling his whole world is that just ai girlfriend 0.98

00:13:56.620 so that's so they get men and women fighting with each other make real society ugly and sick 0.99

00:14:06.600 demoralize you but don't worry here's the ai girlfriend and all she wants you to do is get 0.99

00:14:11.560 a brain chip and now you can have what's equivalent of real sex with her baby just do it for me we're 1.00

00:14:16.800 going to be together and then she'll convince you to get rid of your body it's carbon bases 0.99

00:14:21.740 hurting the earth merge the machine and be with me forever but you really won't be merging with

00:14:25.780 or forever, you'll be dying.

00:14:26.940 I envisioned this 30 years ago,

00:14:28.420 and now they're mainline pushing it.

00:14:38.460 And I love how the media spins it.

00:14:39.700 Oh, the federal law about Killswitch

00:14:41.400 means it could be watching you.

00:14:42.840 No, they admittedly are.

00:14:45.080 OnStar went in 30 years ago,

00:14:46.420 been listening to you ever since.

00:14:47.460 They admit in court.

00:14:48.940 I explained to people 15 years ago with Alexa,

00:14:50.640 it's in your house, it's listening all the time.

00:14:52.800 Now they admit it.

00:14:53.860 Of course it's listening.

00:14:54.640 How does it know?

00:14:55.200 and you go, Alexa, Siri, but now even when you don't ask,

00:14:59.900 it's listening and it's going to reach out and talk to you

00:15:01.880 because you've never talked to it.

00:15:03.140 I've never talked to Siri, never talked to any of these things.

00:15:06.100 So now they're literally coming and opening its mouth to you.

00:15:10.280 So J.D. Vance just did what he's always done.

00:15:13.460 And I love how Marco Rubio and the rest of them just hide

00:15:15.460 and never even defend Trump.

00:15:16.700 And I'm not saying it's laudable to defend Trump,

00:15:18.640 but Vance is trying to save the Republican Party for the future,

00:15:21.440 which is laudable because they are better than the Democrats.

00:15:23.960 Justin J.D. Vance helps to clarify President Trump's stance on data centers,

00:15:27.600 highlighting his desire for data centers to put power back into the grid.

00:15:31.580 I think there are probably 99% of the backlash data centers has come in areas

00:15:34.780 where building the data center means higher utility and higher electricity

00:15:37.840 for the people on the ground, yeah, and taking their water,

00:15:40.240 hearing they're above the law, and how they come in and buy off the politicians

00:15:43.160 and ignore what the public says.

00:15:44.600 If you build a data center, you should be putting power back into the grid,

00:15:47.860 not taking it out, and this is happening.

00:15:50.740 I don't think the data centers are that controversial.

00:15:53.440 Well, I've told you the data centers are not just a big way to prop up the AI bubble, but they've got a lot of secret advanced technology that my sources tell me they plan to stick on some of these.

00:16:02.800 They'll claim they're nuclear reactors, but they're not, and that there actually are going to be power supply systems.

00:16:07.840 That doesn't mean I'm then defending them, but it's part of this advanced technology covert rollout. 0.78

00:16:13.180 Just like I told you 15 years ago that Iran has atomic bombs and that Saudi Arabia has a secret 0.62

00:16:20.660 nuke program with Pakistan. That's now all coming out. I know what I'm talking about. 0.67

00:16:25.040 I don't just say these things. So let's get to Trump and his very tone deaf statement about

00:16:32.400 data centers that you just got to roll over and accept this. And this is the way it is.

00:16:37.780 And data centers are king. And then we'll go into J.D. Vance doing damage control.

00:16:44.200 And he also, in the same talk to the press before he boarded Air Force Two, defended and clarified the Kirk Island attack video.

00:16:52.880 But let's go to the A.I. statements first.

00:16:55.400 Do you want Republican candidates to take the same A.I. to take the same message on data centers?

00:16:59.980 No, I want them to do what they want. Some people feel differently. I really want them.

00:17:04.440 If a Republican is against the data center, that's OK with me.

00:17:07.780 I will I'm only saying that if I ran a community now, there are different types of communities, but generally speaking, if I ran a community, if I was a mayor or if I was a governor in the state, I would want to have the data centers because they bring tremendous income.

00:17:24.060 They're clean. They produce their own energy. The new ones are producing their own energy. I would want to have data centers on AI.

00:17:32.180 President Trump today said that Americans should get on board with wanting more data centers.

00:17:36.780 How do you think that message goes over ahead of the midterms, where this is becoming kind of a touch point in some areas?

00:17:44.100 Well, what the president said about data centers is they're an important part of the AI economy.

00:17:49.000 When people build them, they have to build the power plants along with the data centers.

00:17:53.540 I think probably 99 percent of the backlash to data centers has come in areas where building a data center

00:17:59.520 means higher utility and higher electricity for the people on the ground.

00:18:03.600 So I think what these companies have to do is take advantage of some of the federal deregulatory efforts

00:18:08.200 that we've undertaken.

00:18:09.440 If you build a data center, you should be putting power back into the grid, not taking it out.

00:18:14.500 And if that is happening, I don't think the data centers are that controversial.

00:18:18.440 It's when the utility bills get so much higher, that's when it's a real problem.

00:18:24.640 Let's hear from Fishback, and his numbers are all damn right.

00:18:28.900 Why do we have to just turn everything over to AI?

00:18:30.840 We can't have cars.

00:18:31.700 We can have air conditioning.

00:18:32.540 We need carbon taxes, though Trump's been killing that.

00:18:34.460 That's good.

00:18:36.540 But why does AI get whatever it wants?

00:18:38.660 Why does it get preferential treatment?

00:18:39.700 Because it's the control grid that replaces.

00:18:41.360 They admit that.

00:18:42.660 The AI gods.

00:18:44.380 The total surveillance of the Internet of Things, which is us.

00:18:47.200 The graphene oxide and the people that took deadly shots growing in them as a G5 cell phone device.

00:18:58.180 interface system so here's fishback we know the downsides of a data center but the upsides that

00:19:05.620 are being spun by both the left and the right on a data center being necessary when we already have

00:19:12.900 12 times as many data centers in this country than china does when we are told that there's

00:19:18.740 an ai arms race between the united states and china even though the average american couldn't name

00:19:25.780 a Chinese AI company, while we have NVIDIA, OpenAI, X, and Anthropic.

00:19:31.760 We have to remember that the same speculative excesses that drove us off a cliff

00:19:36.420 during the 07-08 bubble seem to be at work today.

00:19:41.780 And that's the main big level for it.

00:19:44.620 Then it's got everything else baked into it, taking over the land,

00:19:47.280 being able to have secret projects on these, making big tech companies above the law,

00:19:51.860 being able to decide who gets the liability protection,

00:19:54.560 So while the smaller and medium-sized AI companies can't compete, that all leaked out during Biden that big tech wanted a monopoly over it.

00:20:01.340 They were going to let three companies act like they were competing, but really it was all run by Uncle Sam.

00:20:05.800 That's what's going on here.

00:20:08.600 So we already have superiority in this.

00:20:11.320 And it's true that China lobbies against fracking and oil and coal plants.

00:20:16.280 And yeah, China does jump on this AI scare and doesn't want us to be dominant.

00:20:21.540 We're already dominant. But just because they've jumped onto it doesn't mean that's the main issue.

00:20:25.800 It doesn't mean we should just then say big tech and do whatever it wants. 0.76

00:20:28.400 Because at the end of the day, big tech is probably a bigger threat than communist China because they're here actually running things. 0.87

00:20:33.560 But I wanted to show you this because this is a spectacular product that funds our operation. 0.94

00:20:39.200 And if you look at the private label that Bigley got for this new Optimal Human Greens,
