Yes you are right, but the origin of the tea party was in Occupy Wall Street. The tea party was an intermediate that slipped my mind. It was the result of the billionaires taking over Occupy Wall Street. Something we could watch happen in real time.

People should still go vote
Absolutely, if there is a vote in 2028, there is good reason to be pessimistic about that, but there is also good reason to fight for it, but the news the past ½ year, are absolutely not promising, the dark is winning.
One bright spot though is that they may begin to fight each other, and that may be the chance USA has to save democracy.
This is what Parkland survivor David Hogg suggested and started to work for a few months ago, but was shut down by established democrats, for not being the traditional practice.
Left wing Democrats need to be more active in the party, and take it over, like happened with Republican party first with Occupy Wall street, which the billionaires (Koch Brothers) hijacked and distorted completely, and paved the way for Maga which is 100% controlled by fundamental billionaires with no regard for the welfare of the general public.
But hopefully the left can manage to stop the billionaire control of the democratic party. So instead of just being the lesser evil, it could become a force for true progress in USA again, like USA had for almost 40 years straight post WW2.
David Hogg is a brilliant strategist, as he proved by taking down NRA, and he also managed to get this issue more on the agenda, support David Hogg, and he will support you!
AFAIK in USA it is pretty common to build the power infra structure as part of the AI data-centers that need it.
This has already been pretty common for normal data-centers for years.
USA never really had good public service infra structure for it. While for instance in Denmark many companies build data-centers because Denmark both has good infrastructure, and also can supply data-centers with relatively cheap energy from renewable sources, without the company having to foot a giant bill to invest in that too.
The American model is of course inferior, but it's not like it doesn't work at all, it just makes it more expensive.
On the other hand, in USA they can bribe White House, and do almost whatever the fuck they want. That is NOT an option in China, where it can result in a literal death penalty for the CEO if tried!
