Summary
On today's 'BradCast': Central Texas is grappling with torrential rainfall and deadly, catastrophic flooding in the same region where a flood disaster destroyed Camp Mystic a year ago. The Midwest and East Coast are choking on toxic wildfire smoke. Studies confirm that the surge of new data centers is raising electricity rates across the country, prompting Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) to implement the nation's first moratorium on the construction of new hyperscaler data centers. Trump Energy Sec. Chris Wright and Interior Sec. Doug Burgum celebrated the end of federal renewable energy subsides in favor of fossil fuel expansion, while lying and trying to gaslight Americans about the cost and reliability of renewable energy and pretending that batteries don't exist.
