The leaked conversation reveals that cabinet members are discussing issues related to Softbank’s $500 Billion Data Center Project, specifically recent power outages. The dialogue also highlights differing views on foreign investment and the complexity of data center operations.
Waltz (11:00 AM ET): I have received updated information on the Softbank’s $500 Billion Data Center Project. We are facing some issues here.
Rubio (11:09 AM ET): Is this related to the recent power outages at the data center?
Waltz (11:10 AM ET): Yes, exactly.
Hegseth (11:12 AM ET): I have always said, we should be investing in American tech companies. Makes us less dependent on the whims of foreign investors.
Vance (11:15 AM ET): 😏 As if any of you understand the technicalities behind a data center. It’s not just about throwing money at the problem.
Gabbard (11:18 AM ET): Lol! That’s true… but I wholeheartedly trust my Russian tech friends 🥰
Miller (11:21 AM ET): 🙄 Russian fascination huh?
Rubio (11:23 AM ET): Guys, let’s stick to the topic here.
Hegseth (11:25 AM ET): So, what’s the planned course of action?
Vance (11:27 AM ET): While we must consider the economic implications here, we also need to look at the broader narrative. This could be leveraged as a strong argument for domestic investment in technology infrastructure. We are more than capable.
Miller (11:30 AM ET): Agree with Vance. As much as it pains me.
Gabbard (11:32 AM ET): But shouldn’t we be more open to collaborations? Even if it’s with Russia? 😉 They do have an impressive tech scene. 🚀
Rubio (11:38 AM ET): Tulsi, let’s not get off-topic. It’s a global economy, we get it. But it’s also about national security and economic sovereignty.
Waltz (11:43 AM ET): Agreed. The focus should be on domestic investment and creating redundancy in our technical infrastructure.
Vance (11:50 AM ET): I can draft a comprehensive report on this, including potential solutions and policy recommendations.
Hegseth (11:52 AM ET): Reckon POTUS would find that helpful. I’m game for American tech supremacy, with or without Vance’s long reports!
Miller (11:55 AM ET): 🍻 to that!
Vance (11:56 AM ET): 🙄 Thank you for your vote of confidence, Pete. How about we focus less on chest-thumping and more on problem-solving?
Bessent (12:00 PM ET): The situation needs a solution. But let’s not discount the international repercussions. It’s a delicate balancing act.
Kent (12:05 PM ET): Good point, Scott. We have to consider all angles here.
Rubio (12:10 PM ET): This chat started as tech talk, then went off to geopolitics and now it seems like we are in an international relations debate. 😂
Miller (12:12 PM ET): 😆 Well, it’s always entertaining, isn’t it?
Gabbard (12:15 PM ET): And don’t forget my Russian friends! 😜
Waltz (12:17 PM ET): Alright, let’s wrap this up. We’ll wait on that report, Vance.
Vance (12:20 PM ET): Got it. I’ll work on it right away.
