Hundreds of billions of dollars have already been spent on data centers, with talk of spending trillions more. And these data centers use a lot of power: According to the Times Picuayune, Meta's new data center under construction in Louisiana will require nearly three times the power that New Orleans uses in a year. Residents across the country have taken note, and rising utility rates have become an issue in some recent elections.Casey Crownhart, senior climate reporter at MIT Technology Review, has been studying the costs and impacts of the data center boom.

Despite promises by elected leaders to address the disproportionate number of Native Americans and Alaska Natives who are murdered or go missing, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives (MMIR) advocates say there is little progress and even steps backward for victims and their families. Advocates say the Trump administration's removal of the Not One More report from the Department of Justice's website is a setback for public awareness and the work to fight the ongoing problem. Advocates also complained that Alaska officials are not adequately acknowledging the number of unsolved cases. Since that complaint, state officials added 50 names to the unsolved cases list. Numerous data sources point to the disproportionate rate that Native people are victims of violence and their cases go unresolved.

At the Texas Tribune Festival, Maryland Governor Wes Moore joins Chuck Todd for a wide-ranging conversation about leadership in the Trump era, the future of Democratic politics, and the policy challenges shaping the next decade. Moore reflects on governing a state uniquely positioned at the crossroads of America’s north and south — and uniquely impacted by Donald Trump’s presidency. He and Chuck dig into the shutdown’s political fallout, why the legal theory behind shutdowns has always been flimsy, and how Maryland worked to blunt its effects. Moore also lays out why kicking people off healthcare is an indefensible shutdown tactic, what Democrats got right and wrong in their approach, and how states can tackle crime without relying on the myths surrounding the National Guard. The conversation turns toward the issues that will define 2026 and beyond, including skyrocketing electric bills, the urgent need to rapidly diversify energy production, and the responsibility tech companies bear as AI and data centers reshape local communities. Moore challenges Democrats to rethink their discomfort with Wall Street, argues that poverty is the result of deliberate policy design, and explains how racial wealth theft — from redlining to inequitable lending — continues to hold the economy back. Chuck also presses him on 2028 rumors, his vision for restoring bipartisanship in a polarized country, and why national service might help rebuild trust in American institutions. Packed with policy, perspective, and political strategy, it’s a candid look at how one of the party’s rising stars sees the road ahead.

On this episode of The Chuck ToddCast, Chuck previews the Democratic prospects for the 2028 presidential election, highlighting why Gavin Newsom has shot to the top of the field and debates which candidate is most likely to win the “centrist” lane.

No wonder Pierre Poilievre is unhappy. Mark Carney took a page from Poilievre's playbook and axed the (carbon) tax, and now the Liberal Prime Minister's getting set for a pipeline announcement alongside Alberta's UCP Premier Danielle Smith. It's no wonder the federal Conservative leader is doing his best to discredit the deal. We open this episode with an exchange between Poilievre and Carney in the House of Commons, along with feckless chirps from prominent Alberta separatist Jeff Rath.

Kristian Harloff:  The cosmos just got a lot weirder—or did it? Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS (aka "Three Eye Atlas") has been streaking through our solar system since its discovery in July 2025, sparking wild debates: Is this just a cosmic snowball, or something far more exotic? NASA insists it's a natural comet, releasing stunning new images this week showing its fuzzy coma and tail—no aliens in sight.  But not everyone's buying it. Enter Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), the UFO disclosure advocate who's been vocal about government cover-ups. In a recent tweet, Burchett doubled down on the fringe theories, declaring 3I/ATLAS "isn't a comet or anything we can explain with current science."  Is he hinting at alien tech, like a probe from another star system? Or even tying it to his claims of underwater alien bases?  The speculation is exploding online—from Harvard's Avi Loeb suggesting a 40% chance it's non-human  to viral videos claiming it's "under alien control."  In this episode of Down to Earth with Kristian Harloff, I break it all down: •  NASA's latest HiRISE and JWST images—do they really debunk the extraterrestrial hype?   •  Burchett's tweet: What does "unexplainable" really mean in the age of UAP hearings? •  The science vs. the sensational: Radio signals from the comet? Color changes? Acceleration anomalies that have NASA scrambling?  •  My take: As an average Joe diving into UAP news, is 3I/ATLAS the smoking gun we've been waiting for, or just interstellar clickbait? Whether you're Team Comet or Team Cosmic Cover-Up, this visitor from the stars (slated to swing by Earth safely on Dec 19 at 267 million km away ) demands a closer look. Hit play and let's unpack the mystery! Kristian Harloff:  The cosmos just got a lot weirder—or did it?

Or even tying it to his claims of underwater alien bases?  The speculation is exploding online—from Harvard's Avi Loeb suggesting a 40% chance it's non-human  to viral videos claiming it's "under alien control."  In this episode of Down to Earth with Kristian Harloff, I break it all down: •  NASA's latest HiRISE and JWST images—do they really debunk the extraterrestrial hype?   •  Burchett's tweet: What does "unexplainable" really mean in the age of UAP hearings? •  The science vs. the sensational: Radio signals from the comet? Color changes? Acceleration anomalies that have NASA scrambling?  •  My take: As an average Joe diving into UAP news, is 3I/ATLAS the smoking gun we've been waiting for, or just interstellar clickbait? Whether you're Team Comet or Team Cosmic Cover-Up, this visitor from the stars (slated to swing by Earth safely on Dec 19 at 267 million km away ) demands a closer look. Hit play and let's unpack the mystery!

A small group of senate Democrats breaks rank with party leaders. New York City health officials release boxes of ground zero air quality records. Another arrest is made in connection to a Bridgeport voter fraud case. Plus, could Connecticut have a nuclear energy future?

The drama centers around Ridge Forrester's (Thorsten Kaye) seemingly misplaced loyalties during Thanksgiving dinner hosted by Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Finn (Tanner Novlan), which includes their children Kelly Spencer (Sophia Paras McKinlay) and Hayes Forrester Finnegan (Bryan David Garlick), and their parents Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) and Ridge.  B&B predictions hint that Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) is caught in a dilemma following Luna Nozawa's (Lisa Yamada) death, and may seek Taylor's therapeutic help.

However, Katie may be reluctant to accept this sudden change.  And, B&B spoilers reveal that the news of Luna's death has left everyone in shock, but a sense of mystery looms with Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) and Katie receiving strange texts and a sudden confession from Ms. Dylan - raising suspicions about Luna's actual fate. As the bold and beautiful drama unfolds, fans are left speculating if Luna is truly gone or if a shocking revelation awaits us in the upcoming episodes.

In this week's episode, I talk with New York Times reporter Matt Richtel about what adolescence actually is—and why so much of what we think we know about teens is outdated. We discuss an entirely new framework for understanding the adolescent brain: a period designed for intense information processing, where kids are constantly reconciling what they've been taught with a fast-changing world. We unpack why teens don't listen (and why it's not personal), why overwhelm shows up as emotional explosions or rumination, and how parents can help their kids “reboot” instead of pushing more information into an already overloaded system. We also explore what adults can model—curiosity, coping skills, and the ability to live with ambiguity—to support teens through this challenging, necessary, and deeply meaningful developmental stage.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Dan the Card Lawyer and Josh Adams from 90s Auctions join us to keep pulling back the curtain on shill bidding, reserves, and how auction houses really work behind the scenes. We look at where “accepted hobby practice” ends and fraud begins, why some newer hobby-first auction houses are drawing hard lines, and how much shill is quietly baked into the prices we all rely on. We also touch on eBay authentication horror stories, stolen mail, and whether it is even possible to collect without being touched by any of this. Highlights include: A criminal defense lawyer's perspective on shill bidding, fraud, and why some practices cross the line An auction owner explaining why 90s Auctions walked away from reserves and house bidding How guarantees, reserves, and “system bids” can warp prices long before you place your max bid The uncomfortable question of how much shill is baked into almost every COMP in the hobby Your comments drive the show, so bring your questions and experiences to the live chat.

Pushback

In this episode, we speak with Lucy Biggers, head of social media at The Free Press and a former climate activist who has completely rethought the story she was telling the world and herself. Lucy shares how she went from a left-wing digital newsroom steeped in oppressor–oppressed ideology and climate doomsday content to slowly "re-educating" herself, especially after COVID lockdowns made her question what the climate movement was really asking of ordinary people. We talk about how smart, idealistic young people get pulled into movements, from climate activism to "Free Palestine" marches and democratic socialists like AOC and Zohran Mamdani, often in search of purpose, belonging, and someone to blame. Lucy walks us through the emotional cost of changing her mind in public, losing old followers, gaining new ones, and learning to stand on principle instead of group approval. We also go bigger: what's happening in our universities and K–12 schools, the rise of extreme voices on both the woke left and the conspiratorial right, and why Lucy still believes in American exceptionalism, free thinking, and the courage to say, "I was wrong" as an act of wisdom, not shame. The Free Press   Key Timestamps + Signature Quotes 00:00 — Introduction & Lucy's Background Quote: "I debunk the fear around climate change because people deserve the truth, not terror." 01:10 — Why We Wanted Lucy On Quote: "So many young people today are operating from a state of fear." — Yelena 01:52 — Lucy's Political Journey Quote: "I lived half my twenties believing America was evil — I was completely swept up in it." 02:30 — Inside the Newsroom Groupthink Quote: "It was ground zero for oppressor–oppressed ideology.

Quote: "Six billion dollars from Qatar changes what gets taught. Money goes a long way." — Polina 11:05 — Why Young People Hate the West Quote: "America is imperfect — but exceptional.

The ones who left were never real in the first place." 20:46 — Climate Activists → Free Palestine Movement Quote: "It's the same psychological pattern: well-meaning young people taught a black-and-white story." 21:58 — Social Media Censorship Quote: "In 2019, I would have been banned for simply asking questions." 23:12 — Climate Facts No One Teaches Quote: "CO₂ is 0.04% of the atmosphere.

Quote: "It's time for new institutions — maybe even a Free Press University." 36:13 — Tucker, Candace & the New Far-Right Quote: "Extremism on the right mirrors extremism on the left — it's the same loss of grounding." 39:01 — Why It's Hard to Push Back on the Right Quote: "Not everyone stands on principle — the last two months showed us that clearly." 41:48 — Accountability vs. Blame Quote: "Each side finds someone to blame.

Prime Minister Mark Carney's government faced a crucial test — with a vote on their budget. Despite drama throughout the day, the government's economic plan for the country passed. 170 MPs voted in favour of the budget; 168 voted against. Passage of the budget ensured that the country did not face the possibility of a snap election.And: Death rates from cancer continue to fall in Canada as fewer people are dying of lung and colorectal cancer. But one type of cancer is not seeing the same drop, and the extra tragedy is — it's preventable. We'll look at what's happening with cervical cancer.Also: The plan for North American's first-ever whale sanctuary is making waves. Some in the small oceanside community along Nova Scotia's eastern shore are in support of the project, but a handful of landowners say it's moving forward without their consent.Plus: Trump's about-face on Epstein files, UK government's plans to overhaul asylum rules, and more.

It's even sued eight of them for some of that data in an unprecedented push for federal control of voter information.How are the systems and processes behind the 2026 midterm faring in 2025?
