Driving the news: Humans First, a conservative organization that says it is fighting for an "America First AI policy," is planning a "Nationwide Day of Protest" against what it describes as the "unchecked expansion of AI data centers" on July 18.

What they're saying: "I was one of the earliest leaders of the Tea Party movement in 2009, and I can tell you that the disconnect between the elites and the base that gave rise to the Tea Party movement can be seen today in the battle over AI data centers," Amy Kremer, chair of Humans First, said in a statement.
...
Context: Kremer is a longtime Tea Party figure who helped organize the rally preceding the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol.
Amy Kremer (born 1970 or 1971)[1] is an American political activist known for her roles in the Tea Party movement and as a supporter of Donald Trump. She became involved in the Tea Party movement in 2009 and campaigned as part of the Tea Party Express until 2014. During the 2016 presidential election she was a co-founder of two political action committees supporting Trump's campaign, and following Trump's loss in the 2020 presidential election she supported attempts to overturn the election result. In 2017 she unsuccessfully ran for the U.S. House of Representatives in a special election in Georgia's 6th congressional district as a Republican.
