Yup. @AmericanFreedom is indeed the home of the conservative movement.
The Conservative Movement Lives Here
AFF Founder @Mike_Pence talks about our organization’s exponential growth

Employers added 165,000 jobs in October, a solid gain led by business and professional services. Wages rose 0.4%, leaving paychecks running neck and neck with inflation.
My report at AAF covering the BLS Jobs Report coming out soon.

It’s time for Republicans to do some soul searching.
This happened in 2006. We regrouped and came back in 2010.
Why?
Because we returned to our roots of promising limited government, free markets - the things that voters wanted.
Right now - GOP sounds too much like Democrats when it comes to the economy. So many of these are things that Bernie Sanders applauds.

Tonight is rapidly turning into a preview of what a JD Vance 2028 electoral map would look like.

It’s hard to think of a WH that’s sabotaged House and Senate candidates more than this one.

America’s data center boom is growing—but are we overlooking a major problem?
AAF’s @kdd0211 breaks down how the lack of reliable electricity usage data could threaten America’s energy future.
👇
Total US Electricity use increased 12 fold from 1950 to 2000, and then just stagnated. Everything you're nostalgic for from the past had to do with that power growth.
We have a chance to get things moving again, for the long run, but we must disempower the environmental NGO's and their lawyers.
Chart via @kdd0211.
The data-center boom has a data problem:
✅No federal agency regularly measures data-center electricity use.
✅Bad forecasts can threaten reliability or leave ratepayers paying for unneeded infrastructure.
✅Congress can help close the gap.

Amazing to see @AmericanFreedom embrace a high-energy future that includes more freedom in the electricity sector
Kudos to @kdd0211 on a great paper
America wants to lead in AI. We need the power to back it up.
My new paper @AmericanFreedom
✅Measure data center electricity use
✅Speed up permitting and grid connections
✅Let data centers fund their own power through CRE drawing upon the work of my good friend @ts_fisher
Power innovation. Protect ratepayers.

OK but should Republicans say the same about Democrats on concessions regarding oil, coal, and gas?

You can’t regulate away long term climate cycles. As I told @ReporterChrisW in @thecentersquare -- Sacramento should pursue policies that render Californians wealthier and more resilient. Inane climate promises won’t rebuild a flooded home. 👇
Great time speaking at @ForumDrake's conference in NW Pennsylvania. Special thanks to @Andrewtabler and Steven Burns for hosting.
“Texas and Pennsylvania combined produce about a third of US primary energy production... [Pennsylvania] is literally a goldmine for energy production.”

⚡️Americans shouldn’t be stuck footing the bill for data center expansion.
AAF’s @kdd0211 tells @thecentersquare why greater transparency on energy use and tax breaks is essential to protecting taxpayers and utility customers.

America’s AI future depends on affordable, reliable energy.
In AAF’s new report, @kdd0211 explains why meeting growing data center demand requires unleashing American energy production, cutting red tape, and protecting consumers from rising electricity costs.
