Interesting find here from JP -- this particular data center is owned by the Carlyle Group, a private equity firm with $477 billion in assets. It's getting a $4.5 million state sales tax exemption and creating 10 new jobs

🚨SCOOP: Trump’s FBI summoned state election officials from across the country for an unusual briefing on “preparations” for the midterms, according to emails I obtained. It’s the “strangest thing in the world,” one top state election official told me.
