Americans are mad about data centers being built near them.
President Trump, however, argues building more of them on home
soil helps the country’s economy and is critical to our national
security. How can lawmakers on both sides of the aisle balance
those benefits alongside the anger of the public?

Plus, ICE switched up its enforcement strategy to attract fewer
headlines and increase arrests. But it hasn’t changed the
public’s sentiment that the agency’s earlier crackdown was far
too harsh. We talk about the state of immigration enforcement and
how it could be an issue that tips the scales in the midterms.

And we take your questions on how to fix the country’s massive
deficit.
