US Senator Katie Britt is supporting the Trump administration and its rate, payer, protection pledge regarding data centers being placed in cities and communities. The Trump administration is proposing that companies take this pledge and by doing so, agree to protect the American consumer from price hikes on energy and infrastructure needs. Britt was recently on semifor, where the topic of data centers was brought up. Britt says that data centers are being used as a wedge issue that will put the US behind China in the technology and AI race. Britt says the conversation must continue with how to best address this growing industry, and she maintains that communities should assess thoroughly if this is right for them. With some places deciding they want to bring in another type of development.

1:00Britt is opposed to any type of national moratorium being placed on building data centers, but she also says that we do not need data centers on every corner in America. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall announced a legal victory in a multi-state lawsuit that was brought against the Climate Change Superfund Act, which was a state law passed in New York. A judge within the Northern District of New York recently ruled that the Climate Change Superfund Act was not enforceable given the superseding nature of federal law. The New York state law sought to impose fines against energy producers for actions that were taken by those producers decades ago. The fines they intended to collect totaled $75 billion. Those fines were going to be issued against producers of coal, oil, and natural gas. The state of West Virginia launched the lawsuit with Alabama and other states joining in. Marshall said the ruling puts a stop to a state law that was seeking to regulate the global energy industry as well as brand hardworking Americans as somehow conducting illegal operations. The same multi-state coalition is also seeking to fight a similar piece of legislation

2:02that was passed in the state of Vermont. A special agent within the Department of Homeland Security who was working here in Alabama was arrested this past weekend and charged with multiple sex crimes. Kent Blackledge was arrested by the Spanish Fort Police. He's facing charges that include rape, sawdame, sexual abuse, and incest. Spanish Fort Police Chief John Barber says that more details on the case will be released this Tuesday after Labor Day. Blackledge has now been placed on administrative leave from the DHS. Three individuals have been arrested at the Donaldson Correctional Facility for seeking to smuggle in contraband. The arrests were made by officers within the Alabama Department of Corrections and their K-9 units. The contraband was found during a search of a vehicle during a traffic stop outside of the Donaldson facility. Drugs that were seized included a pound of marijuana, hydrocodone pills, a drone that was worth $1,000, two cell phones in charging cords, Navilla Hill and Tania Howard of Huntsville, as well as Christopher Nelson of Montgomery are facing very struck related charges. While Governor Ivy took the Labor Day holiday as an opportunity to praise Alabamaans for their hard work every day,

3:07he released a video message saying the state is alive and well due to the spirit of Alabama workers. That spirit is alive and well. From our factories and farms to our classrooms and construction sites, hardworking Alabamaans continue to prove that there's no substitute for honest day's work. Today, we honor you. Thank you for all you do to make Alabama stronger and America greater. Happy Labor Day, y'all. For more in-depth stories affecting the state of Alabama, go to 1819news.com. National News President Trump did not take the Labor Day off when it comes to a trade war with Canada from announced on Monday that the U.S. will no longer allow Canada to sell its manufactured bombardier airplanes in the U.S. unless the manufacturing plant is located in the U.S. rather than Canada. On his Truth Social Post, President said that the bombardier airplane is not going to be sold in the U.S.

4:11It's not a good enough product to import. He also accused the company of treating America like a piggy bank with 50% of their revenue coming from American consumers, Trump said they're making a lot of money while Canada continues to block American banks and companies. The Solicitor General for the Trump Administration, John Sauer, has filed an emergency stay within the U.S. Supreme Court over the executive order from the President to secure mail-in ballots, going to and coming from voters through the U.S. Postal Service. The executive order has been legally challenged in a lawsuit with a lower court placing an injunction on the implementation of this plan before the midterm elections. Sauer called on the U.S. Supreme Court to take action this week before the window of opportunity closes for good when it comes to the midterm elections. Sauer pointed out in his brief that mail-in ballots have already been sent out in at least five states this month. Sauer said that once the ballots enter into the mainstream postal system, there is no way to retrieve them or ensure where they are going. As part of this executive order from President Trump, the Postmaster General would not be allowed to deliver mail-in ballots to an address

5:15unless the recipient is first verified to be an eligible voter by using state voter roles. The judge who issued this injunction to stop it from being implemented in Dira, Tawani of Boston, has issued other nationwide injunctions that have ultimately been lifted by the U.S. Supreme Court upon appeal. The government accountability office has issued a report on the potential savings of $10 billion from within the Department of Homeland Security that potential savings comes following an audit by Doge or the Department of Government Efficiency, which was tasked at the start of the Trump administration with reducing governmental waste and improving efficiency. The GAO is now saying in this report that the DHS will not be able to fully realize the cost of voidance that was spelled out by the Doge report. The cost savings involved cancelling hundreds of federal contracts, which the DHS did through the fiscal year of 2025. Now the GAO says that the goods and services that were covered by these now-cancelled contracts will still need to be met in order for DHS to operate and will diminish the cost savings.

6:17The GAO said that terminating a contract does not mean the elimination of an underlying government expense. When it comes to defrauding the U.S. government, a man was arrested in India for stealing $600,000 from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Manjeet Betty was tracked down by the FBI who then asked authorities in India to arrest him. He will be extradited back to the U.S. to face charges. Betty operated a grocery store in the state of Washington where he would give cash to snap recipients who were using their EBT cards. And instead of purchasing food, they would take the cash from Betty. Betty would then take a cut of that cash for the services he provided, this type of scheme, took place between March 2024 and June 2025. Betty was indicted for wire fraud and was told to hand in his passport, but he was able to cross over into Canada undetected and then fly back to India. A Catholic church in Illinois is following a lawsuit against a new state law that approves assisted suicide. The Archbishop of the Chicago Diocese is approving of this lawsuit coming from two different groups of nuns.

7:18The Beckett Fund for Religious Liberty is also involved in this case. The Catholic nuns say that the new state law will require them to help terminally ill patients kill themselves under their care and they cannot violate their Catholic teachings on the dignity of life. The law places a fine on those who are working within the state health care system if they refuse to dispense the lethal drugs necessary to commit these suicides, two orders of nuns, operate facilities for the aged and infirm and have done so for almost 175 years. This new law is set to go into effect this month and multiple state agencies, including the governor of Illinois are named as defendants in this lawsuit. Newsmax recently had an interview with Kristin Megan. She's a former US Air Force bio environmental engineer and their discussion was about chemtrails in the sky that are very, very real. Megan became a whistleblower who was threatened by the US government after she found massive quantities of aluminum, barium and strontium being sprayed into the atmosphere after being mixed within jet fuel. Megan continues to talk about what she found because she says it's affecting Americans health.

8:21This is absolutely happening and it's basically now openly admitted even though you're getting kind of pushed back from the EPA, but I don't think it's intentional. What I discovered around starting in 2007, I was working in bio environmental engineering in the Air Force and like I had mentioned previously, I tried to debunk this and in the attempt to debunk it, I realized as somebody who was approving forms called Air Force Form 3952s. I had to reject these toxicants on formerly known as an MSDS now an SDS because they're the very same toxicants who were trying to engineer out of the workplace. So why would we be procuring more? So lots of solar sampling, air sampling, once I got threatened, I knew I found something and it's it's very much happening. In fact, when I finished my masters around 2015, it was in one of my environmental textbooks that they were doing it. So it's just it's a shock to me that people still think it's not happening. Yes, I sold the book, but I wish I still had it. And we could all see it if you look up and it just doesn't make sense that it's coming from like a Delta flight flying overhead.

9:26So your role in the Air Force, if I'm understanding it correctly, was basically to approve these flights long before takeoff and eventually you just said no. I'm not going to do this anymore. Is that accurate broadly? Well, it wasn't approving the flights. So when you're using hazardous materials, you have to track them from cradle to grave use and disposal. So when I was in the Air Force, I'm basically ocean EPA, but in the military. So I had to make sure that we are keeping workers safe. So we had to understand what we were bringing on and how could it infect human and environmental health. Biggest question in your opinion, why is this being done? And again, it might not be EPA. Could be DARPA. Could be war department. Could be private companies. But why are they doing this? I think there's a multitude of reasonings. You control the weather. You can handicap many people. We did it flooding the Hojuman Trail. But when you have this huge climate change initiative, we needed to find ways to din the sun and decrease the solar load. So this is beer based. And I also think it's financially incentivized through betting on crops. And again, handicapping anyone in war.

10:31What are these crops doing to people? I'm sorry, these chemicals doing to people. Well, a lot of them are heavy alkaline metals and salts. And what they do again is that synergistic toxicity. So if you're breathing it in, you have the dermal absorption and an inhalation. And it does depend on relative humidity and different weather patterns like I live in Michigan. So we have all seasons in the same day. Right. The dissipation rates are faster. When you ingest that, it is eating away at your gut health. And the thing is is when they're using strontium and barium, those things bio-ochimili in the bones. And it also displaces potassium. And if anyone's ever had low potassium, you know that causes a massive issue with your nerves and your heart. And it can mimic a heart attack. So we're getting massively bombarded because again, different routes of exposure. And depending on where you live, you can be more exposed already because you have background elements in your drinking water. It's so scary. You're listening to the Daily Detail from 1819 News.
