FAUCI Killed my 49 yr old husband
Father to a 9 and 13 yr old
Killed Sept 18, 2021, after 32 agonizing days in ICU and ventilator
RENDESIVERE PROTOCOL KILLED HIM
Dead for NO REASON
Fauci can ROT IN HELL
My kids have to grow up without a loving father now.

[Catturd ™ @catturd2]

Dr. Fauci’s hospital protocol is what killed millions of people, not COVID.

I hope in 100 years from now, people will say his name in the same breath as Hitler.

He deserves it.

Utah Senate President Adams calls for 75% reduction in area for proposed Box Elder County data center

[Kelly @hollywoodfox24]

@sltrib Also, why is he (a Canadian) complaining that “foreign influence” is behind the protestors of the AI data center in Box Elder County, Utah? This is a home grown protest, Kevin.

[Are we there yet @jjm5225]

Yes, I realize AI has been around for awhile. These new ones are Mega Data Centers and we are being told how much water will be consumed. It’s not a closed system, recycling system. Used “dirty” water will drain back into the eco system. For Box Elder County, Utah that’s the ground water and into The Great Salt Lake.

[The HighWire @HighWireTalk]

A data center spanning more than twice the size of Manhattan has been approved in Box Elder County, Utah. The Stratus Project, backed by Kevin O'Leary, will require nine gigawatts of power, more than the entire state of Utah currently consumes, and is already drawing furious public backlash over its impact on energy supply and the state's stressed water resources.

When Tucker Carlson sat down with O'Leary, he had some questions about who actually approved it.

Tucker: "How do you know that? That the majority—"

O'Leary: "Because they voted for it unanimously before the Chinese guys."

Tucker: "There was a referendum among citizens, or did some like county board vote?"

O'Leary: "We actually went through the whole process that you have to do by their laws and were granted three to zero. The commissioners of the county said 'we want—' "

Tucker: "Three people voted. The people of the county—"

O'Leary: "Elected officials. That's how you do it."

Tucker: "How hard is it for Kevin O'Leary and Amazon and Microsoft and Google to subvert three county commissioners in rural Utah? Why don't you have a referendum? Why don't you let all citizens, all taxpayers - the ones who are paying for your project - why don't they get to vote?

America now has over 4,000 data centers spread across rural counties and cities, more than any other country in the world, and the buildout is moving fast. Three county commissioners approved this one. The people paying for it in energy, water, and land did not get a vote.

Data centers: Do you support Box Elder project and what critera should they have to support:

Maloy: On paper Utah is the perfect place, but this area is made up of people. Need to make sure they go where people want them and match their resources. We should build data centers that match Utah's resources (air-cooled as opposed to water-cooled).

Lyman: People were treated poorly and public leaders condecended them. I don't agree with the process on Box Elder project. If we don't have transparency, it's a no-go.

@th_wright pushes on whether they support it.

Maloy: I support the data center in Box Elder if the people support it but I don't know that we have it right now.

Lyman: I'm opposed until there's transparency.

Pushing on China race:

Lyman: I believe this is about surveillance more than data.

Maloy - we have to be able to store our data here because of countries like China.

A Utah man has created yard signs to raise awareness about the water usage of the Stratos Project data center in Box Elder County, while also fighting against water usage limits in his town. https://t.co/bqtRBAwR0A

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

A massive new hyperscale data center project called Stratos is planned for Box Elder County, Utah. If built, it would demand up to 9 gigawatts of electricity, more than twice the total power consumption of the entire state.

But the real shock comes from the waste heat. According to Utah State University physics professor Robert Davies, the facility would generate an additional 7 to 8 gigawatts of heat, creating a total thermal output of roughly 16 gigawatts concentrated in one location.

That energy release, Davies calculated, is comparable to detonating 23 atomic bombs per day in Hansel Valley, a high desert basin near the shrinking Great Salt Lake that naturally traps heat like a bowl. The project’s energy footprint would also be roughly equal to that of 40,000 Walmart Supercenters.

Local temperatures could rise by about 5°F (2.8°C) during the day and a staggering 28°F (15.6°C) at night. Ecologists warn that such dramatic warming would stress an already fragile ecosystem, worsen toxic dust from the drying lakebed, and disrupt plants, wildlife, and water resources.

As the backbone of artificial intelligence, data centers are essential for every AI query, image, and training run. The Stratos project now raises a critical question: Can the massive infrastructure behind AI expand without permanently transforming, and overheating, the communities and landscapes where it’s built?

🚨The World’s Largest Data Center in Box Elder County, Utah.

A massive 40,000-acre (62 square mile) hyperscale data center — the largest in the world — is being proposed in Box Elder County, backed by Canadian billionaire Kevin O’Leary.

The project is being fast-tracked by Utah’s Military Installation Development Authority with the support of Governor Spencer Cox, while completely bypassing public input and transparency.

Utah, get ready for a projected 50% spike in CO2 emissions, strained and polluted water resources, and constant 24/7 noise.

Data Centers are for poor people, but -

the back story is KSL's editorial board election meddling in the 2028 Gov race.

Why did KSL give Jason Chafetz front page space for free?

Jason Chafetz is KSL's man for the 2028 Gov seat selected by Utah's billionaires.

The editorial board wanted to do image damage control by getting ahead of the growing story -

2028 Gov candidate Chafetz brought the Data Center to Utah to get rich. Who cares? The issue is No Vote Utax.

KSL, Desnews, SLTrib, ABC4, Fox 13 use their platform to control which anointed two we "vote" for every 4 years.

If Tax Increases, big issues like nuke and data centers were ballot items along with Recall Rights, the power shifts to the People away from the elites.

State elites are only elite because they control $125 Billion State check book over 4 years. Oddly, it's the poor people's cash (taxes) that makes them elite.

Same in DC. Controlling $28 Trillion in tax spending over 4 years makes you elite, not your IQ.

The news gods local and national oppose Vote power - tax increases on ballots.

As a side note - Nuke plants and Data Centers are not allowed in Park City or Alpine, where Jason Chafetz lives nor in Silicon Valley where the tech lords live.

Nuke plants and Data Centers are for poor people.

Q: Who put Carp in Utah Lake? Who planted Chinese Elms in Utah?

A: In 1883, the Federal Gov't. put 200 baby carp in Utah Lake, and planted Chinese Elms near Providence around 1920. Two bad ideas rooted in "protection."

Q: Why?

A: As a cheap food source to replenish depleted fish supplies across the U.S., and for quick shade and wind protection.

Carp are bottom feeders disturbing sediment and ripping out vegetation in search for food. Utah Lake carp have high, unhealthy cancerous PCB counts.

Raw untreated sewage was discharged into Utah Lake from 1850's to 1960's. Dairies ran their cow waste directly into Utah Lake.

By the early 2000's, carp were 91% of the total fish biomass.

As the carp prospered, the native June Sucker, only found in Utah Lake struggled.

To save the June Sucker mechanical carp killing started in 2010 with 29 million pounds of carp removed by 2019. https://t.co/K8E1rs5g7D

Up to $100 million has been spent to fix the carp mistake killing Utah Lake, and to save the June Sucker once endangered, but now classified as a threatened species.

Carp and Chinese Elm Trees have spread aggressively.

Blue Catfish, a bioeliminator, may be a better and cheaper solution than mechanical Carp elimination to save Utah Lake.

Bounties on Chinese Elms may be a better solution to conserve water than Rip Out Your Lawn programs, and contentious water snitch lines on your neighbor.

These expensive self inflicted messes were made in the name of "protection."
