NEW: BPI research reveals that a Marxist-Leninist group with documented ties to China has been a critical mobilizer in efforts that have blocked or delayed $23.6 billion in AI investment in the US.
Its scalps include 10 data center moratoria, 1 permanent data center ban, and 4 rejected or scrapped AI projects.
In Part II of our foreign influence investigation, BPI exposes the Party for Socialism and Liberation (or PSL) as the political arm of Shanghai-based Neville Singham, and lays bare a national campaign launched by the party to stop America’s data center buildout.
Singham is the subject of multiple federal investigations into his reported ties to the CCP. Our research uncovers the anti-data-center organizing of his activist vehicle, the PSL, across 21 campaigns in 14 states, in roles ranging from lead organizer to one member of a broader coalition.
This report adds to the mounting evidence that China and its surrogates are committed to stopping America’s data center buildout so that Beijing can gain the advantage in the AI race.
@fswisen He doesn't live there. His parents sold that house in 2017. Either he moved back to the house his parents sold 9 years ago to rent his boyhood room, which would be weird AF, or he's lying.
.@JayCollinsFL, acting on behalf of Byron Donalds, is now illegally suing to remove me from the ballot, just like Democrats tried to do to Trump in 2024.
His claim? That I, a fourth generation Floridian who has lived here my entire life, haven’t lived in Florida for the past 7 years.
Here’s my Florida driver’s license from 2016.
This baseless lawsuit is nothing more than a desperate and illegal attempt to stop our momentum because they know we’re going to win on August 18.
@JeffreyBrandes@moldingpearls The idea this isn't just going to supersize the half cent sales tax, that already distributes 2.89B annually to local governments, is ridiculous.
I'm here at the @FloridaGOP's "Sunshine State Showdown" representing #FloridaVoiceForTheUnborn! Program set to begin soon. Not many attendees here right now. They're playing rap music. LOL!
I hope Chairman Evan Power doesn't appear to be too hung over like last year. 🤣

@ChrisDorworth Nah. It's picking up pennies in front of a steam roller. Imagine betting 775k USD to win $393.52! That's a sucker bet.
...and it's under dispute! 😂
