🚨🇺🇸 ELON JUST CALLED MEMPHIS ENVIRONMENTALISTS' BLUFF WITH 550 ACRES OF SOLAR
xAI announced 88 acres of solar panels around the Colossus supercomputer in Memphis. Environmental groups have been screaming about grid load and gas generators for months.
Now they're getting 550 acres of renewable energy.
Environmental activists claimed xAI would "strain the grid" and "rely on fossil fuels."
Elon's response? Deploy more solar capacity than most cities see in a decade.The local state rep who complained loudest said xAI "does not care about the people who live here." Those people are about to have the most advanced solar infrastructure in Tennessee.
This is the pattern critics refuse to acknowledge: Elon gets attacked for scaling too fast, then over-delivers on the exact solution they demanded, making them look ridiculous.
Tesla faced the same playbook. "EVs aren't practical!" Build Supercharger network. "Battery production isn't clean!" Build battery recycling. "Grid can't handle it!" Powerwall solves it.
xAI's doing it again. The AI arms race requires massive compute.
Colossus needs power. Instead of fighting Memphis or moving facilities, Elon's funding enough solar to make the entire operation carbon-neutral while powering local infrastructure.$DOGE $PEPE $SUI

Zora is a decentralized social network and creator platform built on the Base Layer 2 network. It allows creators to tokenize their content—such as posts, images, and videos—into tradable "creator coins." This model creates a new economy where creators earn royalties from every trade of their tokenized content, directly monetizing their engagement.
Zora's native token (ZORA) grew by over 573% during the quarter, reaching a new all-time high of $0.144 on August 14. This growth was a direct result of the platform's viral adoption and its central role in the burgeoning SocialFi narrative.
Creator Coin Boom on Base: The primary catalyst was the explosive popularity of Zora's creator coin platform in August. The feature went viral on the Base network, with over 1.6 million tokens minted and trading volume reaching $470 million from 3 million traders. This surge in on-chain activity created immense, sustained demand for the ZORA token, which is used for minting and fees. Coinbase Integration: As a key project on the Coinbase-incubated Base network, Zora benefited from deep integration with the Coinbase ecosystem. Building on its Q3 momentum, Zora secured a listing on brokerage app Robinhood, and it is currently trading at around $0.097.
TRUMP: TARIFF POWER WILL SECURE “WEALTH NEVER SEEN BEFORE”
Trump says the U.S. is already making "Hundreds of Billions" from tariffs and claims it's about to explode even higher.
Buyers who stockpiled goods to dodge tariffs are running low, and soon they’ll have no choice but to pay up.
Trump:
“Despite the massive amount of money being made by the United States of America, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, as a direct result of Tariffs being charged to other countries, the full benefit of the Tariffs has not yet been calculated in that many of the buyers of goods and products, in order to avoid paying the Tariffs in the short term, ‘STOCK UP’ by purchasing far more inventory than they can use.That heavy inventory purchase is now, however, wearing thin, and soon Tariffs will be paid on everything they apply to, without avoidance, and the amounts payable to the USA will SKYROCKET, over and above the already historic levels of dollars received.
These payments will be RECORD SETTING, and put our Nation on a new and unprecedented course.
We are already the “hottest” Country anywhere in the World, but this Tariff POWER will bring America National Security and Wealth the likes of which has never been seen before.
Those opposing us are serving hostile foreign interests that are not aligned with the success, safety and prosperity of the USA. They couldn’t care less about us.I look so much forward to the United States Supreme Court’s decision on this urgent and time sensitive matter so that we can continue, in an uninterrupted manner to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!$BTC
