Data centers and flock cameras are damaging our society in ways most people can’t even imagine.
My guest today is Clayton Tucker: Lampasas rancher, Secretary of the Texas Farmers Union, and candidate for Texas Agriculture Commissioner running to halt AI data center expansion statewide.
Clayton lived in China and Taiwan and saw the surveillance playbook up close. That same playbook is getting imported here through hyperscale AI facilities, Flock cameras, and utility lines built by bureaucrats who may not even have the legal authority to route them.
A cattle rancher north of Dallas lost calves to stillbirths after a BESS facility went in across the road. A mother and daughter watched migraines and ear infections stop the moment they moved away. A Canadian sheep farming family lost about 500 head, and the daughter told Clayton her father developed early-onset dementia in the same window.
Clayton also lays out the counter-move: ag impact studies, development districts, water conservation districts, rezoning, cross-partisan pressure.
If you eat food and live in Texas, this one's for you.
