AOC proposes Mar-a-Lago data center after Trump calls critics 'backwards' — 8hRep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggested placing an AI data center at Mar-a-Lago in response to President Trump's claim that communities opposing data centers are 'backwards and poor,' illustrating the sharp political divide over AI infrastructure. While Trump promotes data centers as drivers of growth, local residents and some Republicans express concern about costs and siting, and Palm Beach County has recently rejected another proposal.

Chris Dalton If Mar-a-Lago's such a great spot for growth and jobs, Trump should have no problem putting his money where his mouth is.

The statement, in a letter to Sen. Elissa Slotkin, comes amid concerns sparked by Trump-era actions and ongoing debates about election security and federal involvement.

Jared Kim Good to hear, but a letter isn't a law. I'd feel better with something more binding than a promise.
