## Resource

The battle for control of the House continues to heat up with several primaries underway, including in New York state. Representative Mike Lawler (R-NY) joins the Rundown to break down his own reelection bid, voter turnout, and why he believes a far-left progressive shift will ultimately alienate suburban voters. Plus, Rep. Lawler outlines some of the strict nuclear terms facing Iran, and the military realities on the table if diplomacy fails. Communities around the country are rallying against the construction of AI data centers. States are weighing moratoriums against these projects as supporters say they’re critical for national security and the AI arms race. Strategic Organizing Projects Director for Food & Water Watch Thomas Meyer and Founder of American AI Logistics John Cofrancesco join Jessica Rosenthal to discuss their thoughts on data centers being built and whether they are helping or hurting the country. PLUS, commentary by Ted Jenkin, President of Exit Stage Left Advisors and Host of The Red, White & Green Show. PHOTO CREDIT: ASSOCIATED PRESS Learn more about your ad choices.
