"The National Guard, calling them in is to kind of surge and do a quick reaction to a problem, to tamp things down for a while while you work on solving the long-term problem, and so I mean I don't have a problem with that," @KGRob27 said. "I think that's great. I mean anything you can do to reduce crime, but it does not replace having a long-term fix for Montgomery."

West Virginia is already becoming the model for using data centers to eventually eliminate its state income tax.” Read his full column here: yellowhammernews.com/yaffee-… #Alabama #ALPolitics #DataCenters #Taxes

Energy wise they may be four times ahead of us by the next decade, and so they brought energy online.” Read full story here: yellowhammernews.com/barry-m… #Alabama #ALPolitics #AI #Tech #Policy @Yaffee
