A once-in-a-generation discovery is transforming a Michigan dairy farm
At first glance, the 400 acres of soybeans growing on the Preston family's dairy farm in southern Michigan looks like a typical field. But these aren't ordinary soybeans. They represent a breakthrough partnership with Michigan State University that's saving the family tens of thousands of dollars a month in livestock feed costs—and it could change the dairy industry forever.

Preston Damsky was a student at the University of Florida’s law school that made the most of a Trump-appointed judge teaching a class by rehashing Klan constitutionalism.
And while the paper he wrote about killing Mexicans and disenfranchising non-whites got him some notoriety,
he wasn’t in trouble over it per se.
He got in trouble after he took to Twitter to announce that
“Jews should be abolished by any means.”
That tweet was read as a threat by the univers…

"Polanski calls for sports boycott of Israel."
Ayoub Khan also called it correctly in a BBC interview: it (the Aston Villa decision) is both a safety issue and a matter of opposing genocide.
But depressing that the Canary can't write an article without citing Twitter and contributing to its SEO rankings.
And yes Preston is a third rate political commentator who can't string a thought together.

Zack Polanski says kick Israel out of all sports
Polanski has establishment media rattled as he endorses a 'general boycott of Israeli sports teams' - just like the cultural boycott of Russia

"So imagine the Brownstone startup puts 50 pods in one big room. Once they rent pod #1, that person appears to have the right to the entire room. Renting pods #2 through #50 could violate Section 1950. If they do, they are double letting, and 'every tenant in the building, under the same landlord' could withhold rent for as long as the 'double letting' continues." 👀

Sleeping Pods in San Francisco: Are They Even Legal? — Dean Preston
The rise of sleeping pods as a housing solution in San Francisco raises questions about legality. California Civil Code Section 1950 prohibits double letting, but is the startup Brownstone breaking the law?
