U.S. Justice Department Seeks Dismissal of Lawsuit Against Musk's xAI Data Centre
The U.S. Justice Department, under the Trump administration, has moved to dismiss a civil rights lawsuit against Elon Musk's xAI data centre in Mississippi. The lawsuit, filed by the NAACP and others, alleges the facility operates natural gas turbines without required permits, posing health risks and violating the Clean Air Act. The Justice Department argues the state of Mississippi authorized the plant and emphasizes its importance for the economy and national security, highlighting Musk's ties to the administration and AI priorities.
