Judge rejects Trump’s wild claim EPA can dismiss data center pollution lawsuits

A judge rejected Donald Trump's attempt to intervene in the NAACP's Clean Air Act lawsuit against xAI (now SpaceXAI) over unpermitted gas turbines powering its Colossus data center in Memphis, Tennessee. Trump had argued the EPA could unilaterally dismiss such suits whenever the president decides against enforcing the Clean Air Act. The NAACP's suit seeks an injunction requiring best available pollution control technology and penalties up to $124,426 per day per violation.
