    The company claims that it is allowed to operate the existing turbines without permits

    xAI has been operating gas turbines that have the potential to emit more than 2,000 tons of smog-forming NOx per year.

    the Department of Justice sided with SpaceX in the NAACP’s lawsuit, saying the unpermitted turbines were a matter of “national, economic, and energy security.”

    just another case of “I’m rich, therefore, the law doesn’t apply to me.” And the 1000% corrupt DOJ turning around and being like “yeah, actually, that’s true.”
