Hour 2 zeroes in on the fight over massive data center projects in St. Joseph County, Indiana, as Councilwoman Amy Drake joins the show to explain what these deals really mean for local taxpayers, landowners, and infrastructure. She details concerns over tax breaks, land use, and who actually benefits, while highlighting how residents can push back and demand transparency from county leadership. Casey walks through a detailed post-interview thread breaking down the GOP’s newsletter spin on data centers, pointing listeners to key posts from his own account and Indiana reporters that reveal growing division inside the party over whether these “big tech” projects are an economic win or an expensive boondoggle. Links to Amy Drake’s interview and all referenced X/Twitter threads give listeners a clear path to see the documents, maps, and statements driving the debate.
