A group presenting itself as a grassroots conservative movement opposing new data centres has organised protests across the United States. A Fox News Digital review found that the campaign involved Green Party figures and activists aligned with Democrats, raising questions about the political forces behind resistance to a major Trump priority.

The article links the protests to wider concerns about data centres’ environmental impact, electricity costs and possible job displacement. It notes that progressive figures including Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have backed a proposed nationwide pause on new data-centre construction, although the article says evidence directly tying data centres to higher energy bills remains unclear.
