Amazon is building an $11 billion AI data campus in Indiana. It’ll use as much electricity as roughly 1 MILLION homes. And about 300 million gallons of water every year. That’s just ONE facility.

INDIANA Excellent website to monitor and expose the “Data Center” scam. Do know the Indiana legislators knowingly circumvented Hoosier taxpayer oversight. No State Board of Account audits, no oversight by the State comptroller. Nada! My State Senator, Vaneta Becker, voted to deny access to these documents. KNOWINGLY! Fourteen states and scores of localities across the U.S. fail to disclose how much revenue they lose to data center tax abatement programs. Yet such losses are known to be soaring in states that do disclose, with three states already losing $1 billion or more per year. Most of these failures to disclose violate Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). Since FY 2017, those principles require most governments to disclose lost revenue when they themselves grant tax abatements. They also require other governments which routinely lose revenue passively to also disclose. Tax-abatement laws written long ago for much smaller data centers, predating massive artificial intelligence (AI) facilities, are now unexpectedly costing governments billions of dollars in lost tax revenue. Three states, Georgia, Virginia, and Texas, already lose $1 billion or more per year. We recommend every state and locality conform to GAAP and fully disclose their data center tax abatement revenue losses. They should also back-report their losses since FY 2017. States should also copy the exemplary model of Nevada’s Controller to annually report the local shares of revenue lost to any tax abatements awarded by the state. goodjobsfirst.org/data-center-ta… @LGMicahBeckwith @michellepete77 @MicahBeckwith @RhondaBMiller @Jim_Banks @GovBraun @Comp_Nieshalla @DanielElliottIN @JimTomes49 @INFREEDOMCAUCUS

🚨Big scandal brewing in Indiana after the State admitted it doled out a shocking $655 million 💰💰💰 in data center sales tax exemption subsidies in 2025. It previously had claimed it had given less than $1 million in subsidies in 2025.

Cop uses Flock cameras to illegally track his mistress, his wife, and his mistresses boyfriend. He is then suspended but keeps using the Flock system to unlawfully monitor. He eventually pleaded to misdemeanors and got "3 years of informal probation." This is just one of thousands of cases where we know these systems are being unlawfully used.

🚨Ohio Governor pauses data center sales tax exemptions for new data centers after state loses $1 billion more than expected. Indiana should follow their lead and pause data center subsidies before we end up with a billion dollar revenue loss of our own.

ChatGPT diagnosed 40 million people with a disease that was invented as a joke. Not a real disease. Not a misunderstood disease. A completely fictional condition with a fake name, fake papers, and fake statistics. And it told patients to see a specialist. The disease is called Bixonimania. A Swedish researcher at the University of Gothenburg invented it in 2024 to answer one question: what happens when you plant obviously fake medical information on the internet and watch AI absorb it? She deliberately chose the name bixonimania because it sounded ridiculous — bixon is a nonsense word, and mania is a psychiatric term that no legitimate eye condition would ever use. She uploaded two papers to a preprint server. Both were obviously fraudulent. AI-generated images of patients with dark circles gave the fake research a veneer of plausibility. Then she waited. She did not have to wait long. By April 13, 2024, Microsoft Bing's Copilot was declaring that bixonimania was an intriguing and relatively rare condition. On the same day, Google's Gemini was informing users that bixonimania was caused by excessive blue light exposure and advising them to visit an ophthalmologist. Later that month, Perplexity AI outlined its prevalence, one in 90,000 individuals were affected and OpenAI's ChatGPT was telling users whether their symptoms matched the fictional illness. One in 90,000. A precise statistic. For a disease that does not exist. Every red flag was visible. The name was absurd. The papers were crude. The condition made no scientific sense. None of the AI systems flagged any of it. They read the fake papers. They absorbed the fake statistics. They presented both to patients with clinical authority and zero hesitation. Then it got worse. Three researchers at the Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in India published a paper in Cureus, a peer-reviewed journal owned by Springer Nature, the parent publisher of Nature itself that cited the bixonimania preprints as legitimate sources. A real peer-reviewed paper. In a Springer Nature journal. Citing a fictional disease as established medical fact. Passing editorial review. Entering the permanent scientific record. It was only retracted after the hoax became public. Nature published a full investigation of the experiment. Alex Ruani, a health-misinformation researcher at University College London, called it a masterclass in how misinformation operates. Here is the scale of what this means. More than 40 million people turn to ChatGPT every day for health information, according to OpenAI's own analysis. ECRI, a US patient-safety nonprofit has named chatbot misuse the number-one health technology hazard of 2026. ECRI's report found that chatbots have suggested incorrect diagnoses, recommended unnecessary testing, promoted substandard medical supplies, and even invented nonexistent anatomy when responding to medical questions. Number one. Out of every health technology hazard that exists in 2026. An April 2026 study published in BMJ Open found that nearly half of the answers provided by leading AI chatbots to common health questions contain misleading or problematic information. Nearly half. Of all health answers. From the tools 40 million people use every day. Here is the line from the researcher that cuts through everything. The Bixonimania case is striking precisely because it was engineered to be so obviously fake. The real question it raises is: what is passing through the same systems that is not nearly so easy to spot? The experiment used a ridiculous name. Fraudulent papers. Visible red flags at every level. It was designed to be caught. It was not caught. The AI that told patients about Bixonimania is the same AI they asked about their chest pain, their medication, their child's symptoms, and their cancer screening schedule. 40 million people. Every day. And nobody is telling them that nearly half of what comes back may be wrong. Source: Osmanovic Thunström · University of Gothenburg · Nature · April 2026 · Link in the (comments)

Amazon Ring died on May 22, 2026. It just doesn't know yet. One dad in Nashville, Tennessee built a free MIT-licensed app that watches your driveway, your porch, your baby monitor, your garage. No cloud. No subscription. No cop ever gets the footage. 32,057 stars. 3,103 forks. Pushed today. Here is the wildest part: You: "How much is Ring Protect Pro?" Ring: "$19.99 a month. $199.99 a year. Per house." You: "How much is Google Home Premium Advanced?" Google: "$20 a month. $200 a year. Per house." You: "What do I get?" Both: "We store your footage in our cloud. Ring already paid the FTC $5.8 million in 2023 for letting employees and contractors watch your videos without your consent. Google just raised Nest prices again in 2025." You: "What does Frigate cost?" Blake Blackshear: "Nothing. It runs on the Raspberry Pi already on your shelf. The footage never leaves your house. I have a day job." Ring sells the camera. Then sells your fear back to you, monthly, forever. Frigate sells nothing. Because Blake isn't selling. He's a dad with 1,267 followers who got tired of Amazon owning his front door. 100% Opensource. 100% Local. 100% Yours. The smart camera industry made one bad assumption. That you'd keep paying rent on a camera you already bought. That assumption just died in Nashville.

Hahaha and people think AI is going to take all jobs in 18 months. Reality is the AI companies will likely price themselves out of that economic possibility for 20 to 40 years. This why I say the notion of replacing human labor is utterly ridiculous. It'll take hundreds of trillions of dollars to replace human labor completely. Who the hell is going to spend a 100 times our current global GDP to automate all jobs?

Media Lies
Media Lies@MediasLies·
Yesterday Sen. Gillibrand told Secretary Duffy she has “never” been on a private jet after he accused her of receiving $462,000 in trial lawyer-funded private jet travel. Senate records reveal her play on words: Gillibrand consistently ranks among Congress’s HEAVIEST users of chartered flights, with annual spending of $270,000 to $350,000, which are ALL taxpayer-funded through her Senate office account. This is the typical political word game: deny the loaded term “private jet” when it’s inconvenient, while continuing to use expensive chartered flights paid for by taxpayers without ever addressing it. Legacy media and politicians play this selective language game constantly when it protects their side.

@TanyaR7770 @AndrewIrelandIN Ah yes finally. Also Ball State staff didn’t get a raise last year. They gave a bonus. However that means that all wages moving forward will be lower. Not sure what the status is this year.

Hold on. Accounting positions are VERY hard to hire for right now because there are not enough people entering into the field. Pair that with the fact that universities on average pay less than the private sector, maybe all of their graduates are completely qualified, but are landing jobs at higher rates?

🚨 Wow. Taxpayer-funded Ball State University disclosed it’s hiring an entry level "budget analyst" on a H-1B visa. The university has graduated thousands of finance and accounting students. But apparently ZERO are qualified for this job. It’s time to end the H-1B scam

For 20 years, a $6 knob that takes one hour to 3D print has been grounding Black Hawk helicopters four times a month, and the contractor responsible won't sell us the part or the IP rights to fix it ourselves. So instead, American taxpayers have been paying $40,000 every single time to replace the entire system, multiplied by four times a month, for two decades. That is NOT a procurement problem, that is a shakedown, and it is exactly why right to repair has to be in this year's NDAA.

This data center in Georgia STOLE around 30 MILLION gallons of water with a secret water tap they never told the local utilities about. We need real accountability for big tech data centers out here STEALING water to build a mass surveillance state that none of us even want.

Hoosier Enquirer
Hoosier Enquirer@HoosierEnquirer·
We’ve been receiving calls from top Indiana establishment Republicans this morning demanding that we remove our article exposing the Mike Pence and Eric Holcomb “Highway to Hell” I-69 Swindle. They accused us of bias for not also covering Democrats involved in similar scandals, then offered us a large donation to take it down. 🙄 We will not be removing the article. It is not our job to shield Indiana establishment Republicans from accountability, nor is it our fault they resent a free press. The Hoosier Enquirer has always exposed corruption on both sides of the aisle — regardless of party. That principle will not change.
