The President swept off to Beijing to court Xi Jinping. Back Stateside, it was non-Presidential motorcades, video games, and a languid vibe at the White House. The endless motorcades and wail of sirens in Washington this week made it seem as if the President were travelling non-stop around the city, or receiving a bevy of foreign dignitaries. As it happened, it was National Police Week, and the ceremonial convoys were carrying the families of police officers who had been killed in the line of duty. Donald Trump was leaving for China.

The People vs. AI
One icy morning in February, nearly 200 people gathered in a church in downtown Richmond, Va. Most had awakened before dawn and driven in from across the state. There were Republicans and Democrats from rural farms and D.C. exurbs. They shared one goal: to fight back against AI development in a region with the largest concentration of data centers in the world. "Aren't you tired of being ignored by both parties, and having your quality of life and your environment absolutely destroyed by corporate greed?" state senator Danica Roem said, to a standing ovation. The activists--wearing homemade shirts with slogans like Boondoggle: Data Center in Botetourt County--marched to the state capitol and spent the day testifying to lawmakers about their fears over data centers' impacts on electricity, water, noise pollution, and more. Some lawmakers pledged to help: "You're getting a sh-t deal," state delegate John McAuliff told activists. The phrase captured many people's feelings toward the AI industry as a whole. Not much unites Americans these days.
