As we continue to grow technologically, the demand for data centers is only going to increase. How can we continue to building the foundation of the modern economy in the U.S. and lead the world? @ebendily, @JMLCannon, and @JuanMLondonoR join us to talk about the future of data center policy.

"The French health ministry has classified nicotine as a 'toxic substance' and justified the ban as necessary to curb rising dependency on the chemical compound." So they are also banning cigarettes, right? Lol of course not, because it's France.
If MLB just banished Scott Boras like they should, there would really be no need to be talking about a salary cap.

Texas became a model for criminal justice because it proved something important: that you can reduce prison populations, invest in rehabilitation, and improve public safety at the same time 👏 @tolmanbrett

Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
