The video Trump was showing during this infamous meeting was later shown to be taken in another country, not South Africa.
Having spend time there working I am acutely aware of the problems white South Africans are facing but this time do believe Trump has (again) been fooled.
Although the South African government deserves a kick in the butt, there is no sane reason to give the white farmers preferential treatment when it comes to US visas.

You seem to have a rather narrow view on where these data centers are build.
Like here in Europe several are planned (or have already been build) in areas where fresh drinking quality water is becoming a scarce recourse.
A cooling system with evaporation towers is better than dumping it in an already heated river, building the centers in populated areas and using the heat output for district heating is a solution that works in winter time, this solves energy and water use issues.
But then you still need a solution for summer...

CNN is still the trusted US news outlet in the rest of the world.
When it comes to news BBC is great but they are not US.
Yes a few years ago a large group of Americans were fooled by Trump but they are finally starting to see through his lies and bluster, Americans that woke up to Trump can and will start to return to the CNN way of coverage.
There is a reason MAGA tries to shut down this channel.

It sucks not having laws to protect your privacy.
But at least they don't send a picture every half-second, apparently they use a build-in Automated Content Recognition (ACR) technology.
Which to me means they 'only' collect the name of the content.
Makes me wonder how they would name your private recordings of you doing the neighbors wife.
