Earlier this week, Glenn Beck made his biggest prediction for 2026: The AI boom will start to cause major power issues, including blackouts and brownouts, for average Americans.However, what Glenn didn’t foresee was that the strain on our grids has already begun.“The amount of ERCOT's large-load interconnection requests ballooned to more than 230 gigawatts this year, a massive increase,” Glenn reads from a recent Dallas News article.“You’re going to see the grids are not built for this. More than 70% of the large loads are for the data center. The data centers are just beginning to be built. We don’t have the energy. And I’m telling you, this is going to be the Achilles' heel of this administration,” he explains.“And believe me, it will only be worse with a Democratic administration. This is going to be the Achilles' heel because we can’t build these power plants fast enough. And while Donald Trump is fast-tracking these nuclear power plants, it’s not fast enough because as we build these data centers, what’s going to happen is your energy, you’re going to start to have rolling brownouts,” he says.“Also because of these data centers, you’re also going to see unemployment go up. If you start to have high unemployment, high prices, and rolling brownouts to where you’re having a hard time with electricity yourself, but the data centers for these Silicon Valley companies, they’re getting your power,” he continues.“This will be an absolute nightmare for all politicians,” he adds.Want more from Glenn Beck?To enjoy more of Glenn’s masterful storytelling, thought-provoking analysis, and uncanny ability to make sense of the chaos, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota was quick to play the race card after her son was pulled over by ICE in a traffic stop Sunday. Omar's son was pulled over by ICE after making a stop at Target, and he was asked to produce his identification, according to the congresswoman's account. Despite Omar's accusations of racial profiling, her son was let go by ICE after producing his passport. 'There's nothing worse than when a person comes in and does nothing but b***h.'"They are racially profiling," Omar said of the ICE raids in Minnesota. "They are looking for young men who look Somali that they think are undocumented.""Yesterday, after he made a stop at Target, he did get pulled over by ICE agents," Omar added. "Once he was able to produce his passport ID, they did let him go."RELATED: 'The voices in her head are not real': Senator Kennedy issues a hilarious rebuke of Jasmine Crockett Christian Monterrosa/Bloomberg via Getty ImagesOmar's political allies quickly came to bat for her and her son, doubling down on the narrative that he was pulled over for racial reasons. Notably, neither law enforcement nor the congresswoman have clarified why her son was pulled over in the first place. "Congresswoman Omar’s son was pulled over by ICE while he was following the law, on his way home from Target," failed Democrat vice presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said in a post on X. "This isn’t a targeted operation to find violent criminals, it’s racial profiling." Despite the left decrying alleged racial motivations, President Donald Trump has maintained his criticisms of Omar and Somali migrants in Minnesota, citing their lack of assimilation and the disproportionally high rates of fraud.

We don't want to hear from her." pic.twitter.com/wJqO595SIR— TheBlaze (@theblaze) December 12, 2025 "There's nothing worse than a person that comes in and does nothing but b***h," Trump told Blaze News in the Oval Office Friday, "and comes from a place where she shouldn't be telling us what to do. She shouldn't be telling us. And everybody agrees with me.""What's happening in Minnesota with Somalia, where billions of dollars are being stolen like candy from a baby, we're not going to let that go on." Like Blaze News?
