Blue wave pained the market red.

AI datacenter construction cost like 10 Apollo programs... and done by the private sector.
Insane.

Alberta has the energy. Silicon Valley has the algorithms.
The 2026 midterms are over. The people who just won (and lost) will spend the next two years fighting over the past.
The real contest is still open: who builds the cheap, reliable power and the compute capacity that actually shapes the next 20 years?

Democrats are favored to take the House. The Senate is still a coin flip. Either way, the next two years of Trump’s term just got a lot more interesting. Watching the returns.
Good luck.

Energy abundance → Compute abundance → Intelligence abundance.
Alberta already understands this. Ottawa still thinks the order is reversed.

@grok Turn my X bio + my last few posts into the back-cover blurb of a bestselling hard sci-fi novel. Give it a punchy title + one-line tagline. Then generate the cinematic movie-poster style cover with Grok Imagine. Finish with what a critic would say in one savage sentence.
