When we talk about Native education, we're talking about far more than classrooms.In this episode of All My Relations, guest host Dallas Goldtooth welcomes longtime friend Sedelta Oosahwee (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara and Cherokee), Senior Program & Policy Analyst at the National Education Association, for a timely conversation about the future of Native students, tribal sovereignty, and public education.Together they unpack what Native education actually looks like today, why more than 90% of Native students attend public schools, and what proposed changes to the U.S. Department of Education could mean for tribal nations. They also discuss school choice, the importance of culturally relevant curriculum, supporting Native students and teachers, and why tribal sovereignty is fundamentally different from DEI initiatives.Along the way, Dallas and Sedelta share hilarious stories from their early 1491s days, reflect on the mentors who changed their lives, and celebrate the Native educators, artists, and storytellers creating a better future for the next generation.This episode is a reminder that education isn't just about schools—it's about relationships, responsibility, and believing in what's possible.+++Produced by Matika WilburHosted by Dallas GoldtoothAV Production & Editing by Pancho Francisco SánchezScore by Mato WayuhiArtwork & Social Media Management by Mandy YeahpauText us your thoughts!Support the showFollow us on Instagram @amrpodcast, or support our work on Patreon.  Show notes are published on our website, Allmyrelationspodcast.com.

Inside the growing U.S.–Israeli military partnership, AI surveillance technology, data centers, cybersecurity firms, and political lobbying are becoming increasingly connected. In this episode, investigative journalist and YouTube creator Tommy G discusses the proposed expansion of U.S.–Israel defense integration, the role of artificial intelligence and cyber warfare, Israeli settlements in the West Bank, surveillance companies such as Palantir and Flock Safety, and concerns about privacy, censorship, and government overreach. Tommy also explains why he expanded his reporting beyond crime and street documentaries to cover Gaza, Palestine, Israel, foreign influence in American politics, AIPAC campaign spending, AI-generated political propaganda, license-plate tracking, and the rapid growth of the surveillance state. Topics discussed include: • U.S.–Israel military and technology integration • AI surveillance and cyber warfare • Palantir, Flock Safety, and data privacy • Israeli cybersecurity companies and U.S. data centers • AIPAC lobbying and campaign spending • Gaza, Palestine, and West Bank settlements • Government surveillance and constitutional rights • Artificial intelligence in modern warfare • Free speech, censorship, and political influence • Whether public pressure can still change government policy This conversation contains strong opinions, allegations, and disputed claims from the participants. Viewers are encouraged to research the legislation, statistics, companies, and historical events discussed and reach their own conclusions. Go Support Tommy!

 The push for hyperscale AI data centers in every county isn't about innovation — it's about centralized control, land grabs, and the surveillance state. China just beat the U.S. tech giants for a fraction of the cost. I'm joined by computer scientist and AI expert Jim Calhoun to expose the massive grift behind America's generative AI strategy. While U.S. tech giants like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Amazon take on trillions in debt to build massive, power-draining data centers, China just released a decentralized, open-weight AI model (Kimi-3) essentially for free. Calhoun breaks down why decentralized "edge computing" is the real future of AI and why Big Tech's current path is a dangerous misallocation of capital disguised as a "Sputnik moment."

On Tuesday, July 14, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) signed an executive order pausing construction of new large-scale data centers in the state for up to one year. Hochul said the moratorium is intended to allow policymakers to study the economic and environmental effects of new data centers and consider regulatory action. The governor's order went into effect immediately, making New York the first state to halt data center construction.

In 2024, an initiative to repeal that system narrowly failed, but a new repeal measure is on the ballot this year. Ahead of that critical vote, Senior Editor Will Kaback traveled to Alaska to speak with the leading voices on each side of the issue about the impact of the state's election reform — and whether it will survive another challenge.

If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.volts.wtf/subscribeData center opposition has gone from nonexistent to organized in about two years, roughly 120 moratoriums across 38 states, and it does not track proximity: Gallup finds 70% of Americans oppose a data center near them, while only 8% of opponents live near one. On this episode of Volts, David Roberts joins Energy Empire hosts Jigar Shah and Jamie Nolan, along with Arnab Pal of Deploy Action, for a crossover conversation, and his argument is that everyone is solving the wrong problem. The hyperscalers could buy their way to consent for a rounding error, batteries in basements, solar on roofs, funded schools, lower bills, and they refuse, which David reads as a symptom of low social trust that no amount of better modeling touches. “This is not a technocratic problem that you can just solve with a few switches,” he says.

In June 2026, Gerard and Laurent recorded a live episode at DLA Piper's Charging Up Capital 2026 Global Energy and Digital Investments Forum with Rowan Parkhouse, Managing Director at Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP).  CIP has emerged as one of the world's leading specialist energy transition investors, ranking among the top infrastructure fund managers globally by both assets under management and fundraising. So, what is CIP's Playbook?  We explore how infrastructure investing has evolved over the past five years—what has become easier, what has become harder, and where the biggest opportunities now lie. The conversation covers data centres, batteries, grids, transmission, renewables, EVs, independent power producers, and CIP's relationship with Ørsted.  We also discuss some of the most important questions shaping energy infrastructure today: the impact of AI-driven power demand, whether grid constraints have become a bigger bottleneck than generation, the changing political priorities around energy security and competitiveness, the rationale behind CIP's acquisition of Ørsted's European onshore business, and the future of energy storage.  A fascinating deep dive into how one of the world's most successful energy transition investors is helping build the infrastructure of the future.  We would like to thank Natasha Luther-Jones and Nicolas Stofenmacher for a flawless organisation and the impressive array of talents around the table.

Today's Talkbacks - Debate About AI Data Centers 

In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, Clay and guest Creston Birch go deep on the heated debate over bringing a massive hyperscale data center to Jackson's Lake Hico site. City leaders are quietly pursuing a potential **$5–15 billion** private investment that could generate up to **$20 million annually** for Jackson's struggling budget. Clay makes the case that this is a generational opportunity Jackson cannot afford to miss — delivering thousands of high-paying construction jobs, permanent tech and support positions, and major workforce development funding for JPS, Jackson State, and Hinds Community College. Clay pushes back hard against the opposition, calling out conspiracy theories about water theft, rolling blackouts, cancer risks, and claims that the city's budget crisis was inflated to push the deal. He argues Jackson should stop cutting off its nose to spite its face and embrace real economic development instead of holding out for unrealistic “mixed-use” dreams. With existing power infrastructure, water access, and prime location near I-20, Lake Hico is perfectly positioned — but politics and fear may kill the deal before it starts. **Is this Jackson's last best chance at a comeback, or a dangerous giveaway?**

Fox News Radio's Tonya J. Powers joins Mark and Kim to unpack New York Governor Kathy Hochul's year-long pause on new large-scale data center permits, and why communities across Missouri and southern Illinois — including St. Charles — are pushing back with their own moratoriums. Tonya lays out just how massive these facilities have become, with one Louisiana campus now spanning over 3,600 acres, larger than 2,700 football fields, while raising tough questions about strained power grids, rising residential electricity costs, and limited long-term job creation once construction wraps. Mark adds a local wrinkle: a friend in the industry says it takes as few as six people to run an entire data center once it's operational. The real issue, Tonya says, is transparency — how much these companies actually pay in taxes and what communities get in return. It's the kind of deep-dive accountability conversation that defines the Marc Cox Morning Show. Coming up: more on the Schmitt-Hawley hearing, and Kim on a Whim at 7:45.

Hour Three opens with reflections on kids growing up and Missouri's early voting kicking off tomorrow, with Mark making his final case for Amendment 4 ahead of the August 4th election. Guest Tanya J. Powers joins to break down New York's data center moratorium and the transparency questions surrounding these massive facilities coming to Missouri communities. The hour hits its peak with Senators Eric Schmidt and Josh Hawley dismantling Biden DOJ clemency aide Liz Oyer over her recommendation to free Charleston church shooter Dylann Roof and the rest of federal death row, paired with a real update on the Firehouse 35 flag controversy as the Fire Department finally responds. Kim on a Whim closes the hour with a satirical take on United Airlines catering to Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers who don't want to land at the newly renamed Trump International Airport. Sharp commentary, real accountability, and plenty of laughs — that's Hour Three of the Marc Cox Morning Show.

There are several development projects underway for AI data centres in Canada, with plans for many, many more. The Canadian government is behind these projects as it tries to encourage Canadians to adopt the technology and increase Canada's digital sovereignty by housing data within our borders. But there is a lot of opposition to these data centres from the communities where they'd be built, including in Hamilton, and Île-des-Chênes, Alta. Residents worry about the facilities' water use, power use and environmental impacts. Today, The Globe's national reporter Joe Friesen tells us about the projects slated for development in Canada, why so many have faced public backlash, and the balance the government has to strike in deciding how and whether to build these centres in Canada.

During this opening segment of The Charlie James Show on Monday, July 20, 2026, host Charlie James discusses the growing public opposition surrounding a proposed data center in Spartanburg County. He references a feature from the Theo Von podcast containing Aaron Brockovich that highlights a resident lawsuit against Spartanburg County and Valera Holdings LLC. The core controversy stems from a $2.8 billion project being classified under "minor land development" despite plans including massive square footage, four buildings, a power yard, internal roadways, and mechanical cooling systems. Charlie argues that there is absolutely nothing "minor" about the project, comparing minor developments to simple additions like a new convenience store or gas station. He stresses that residents are deeply concerned by a lack of transparency from county leadership, as well as the ambiguous environmental and infrastructural impacts of the site—ranging from heavy electricity consumption to the loud humming of diesel generators. The segment wraps up with the note that the Spartanburg County Council is scheduled to meet that afternoon to address the legalities and discuss a potential one-year moratorium on similar data center developments.

Why are Bitcoin miners suddenly at the center of the AI infrastructure boom? Fred Thiel, CEO of MARA, explains "mullet data centers" — AI in the front, Bitcoin mining in the back — and why power is the bottom layer of Jensen Huang's AI pyramid. He details MARA's joint venture with Starwood, load-balancing technology that follows wind power in real time, and lessons from Bitcoin mining that now apply to hyperscale data centers.

Cam Cooksey is back from a month of travels (Deadwood, the Lupos for the 4th, then Clearwater Beach) and still on island time, sunburned and peeling, but ready for a good time. He kicks off with a fun first: paying for a Steak 'n Shake 1776 meal with Bitcoin Lightning, then eases into a warm, patriotic celebration of America's 250th. Expect Cam's signature positive spin on the news. He covers Trump's endorsement jab at Amy Klobuchar, the fight for AI and data center dominance against China, and a cryptic look at public private partnerships in national defense (with General Raisin Cain and a Pennsylvania "arsenal of freedom" speech). There's a throwback TikTok flex, a nostalgic Trump tribute video, and a closing MAHA reflection arguing America could feed every family real food, and maybe the world, on a fraction of its farmland. Faith, abundance, and coexistence tie it all together. The American of the Week returns next week.

America needs more data centers to power AI -- but communities across the country are starting to say, "Not here."In this episode of Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill, we explore why counties and states are putting the brakes on new AI infrastructure. Data centers promise billions of dollars in investment, but they also consume enormous amounts of electricity, require vast tracts of land, generate noise, and create surprisingly few permanent jobs. Is the economic payoff worth the cost?We also tackle the bigger questions:* Why AI is driving an unprecedented demand for electricity* Whether America's power grid can keep up* The case for small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs)* Why local communities are increasingly resisting new data centers* Whether fears about AI are justified—or overblown* How the AI race with China changes the debate* Why this issue is becoming one of the country's newest political battlegroundsThe result is a genuine dilemma: America may need AI infrastructure to remain competitive, but the communities expected to host it are increasingly questioning whether they're getting a fair deal.Grab a beer and join us as we explore one of the most important—and least understood—technology controversies of our time.

A leading expert is warning the country's resource management scheme is not fit to manage the long term impact of hyperscale data centres

The social media giant Meta is reportedly negotiating a massive infrastructure agreement with the artificial intelligence startup Anthropic. This potential deal, valued at up to $10 billion, would involve Meta leasing its extensive data center capacity to help power Anthropic's high-demand AI models. Such a partnership marks a significant strategic shift for Meta, as it explores entering the cloud services market to monetize its heavy investments in hardware. While the two companies are currently competitors in the AI sector, the arrangement would provide Anthropic with essential computing resources while creating a lucrative new revenue stream for Meta beyond traditional advertising. This move follows similar large-scale hardware deals in the industry, highlighting the desperate global need for computational power to sustain modern AI development.
