🚨 LAWYERS SANCTIONED. A far-right group filed a lawsuit to sabotage Wisconsin's voter data system, completely inventing a false claim to back it up. Federal Judge Conley didn't just dismiss it—he legally sanctioned the lawyers. Read the truth: 👇 https://t.co/2DNOnZcETC
Breaking: Tohono O’odham Nation sues DHS over border wall plans that would take sovereign tribal land, use the Nation’s water & destroy sacred sites. O’odham Legislative Council approved suit unanimously while facing wall construction that may start in the next few weeks.
Thom Hartmann: “The 5th Amendment says nobody can be held in jail or deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law. 95% of those people have never been in front of a judge. Every state that there’s one of these concentration camps in, the governor and the AG should be going in and making arrests”
One of my favorite lines in the complaint: “At a meeting of the Shoals Republican Club on August 3, 2019, Tuberville candidly conceded that he ‘has property’ in Alabama but is not an ‘everyday resident of Alabama,’ describing himself as a ‘carpetbagger.’”
By planting strips of flowers among their crops, farmers are tapping into nature’s own pest control system to dramatically reduce the need for chemical pesticides.
This smart practice, known as farmscaping, involves strategically integrating flower strips into croplands. These floral corridors create ecological havens that supply pollen, nectar, and shelter for beneficial insects such as ladybugs, hoverflies, and parasitic wasps.
When pest numbers are low, the flowers provide essential food that keeps these natural predators in the area. As soon as pests appear, the beneficial insects are already on site and ready to hunt. Notably, ladybug larvae can consume up to ten times more aphids than adults, making them incredibly effective at protecting crops from aphids, mites, and other damaging pests.
For best results, experts recommend sowing a diverse mix of native, nectar-rich plants. Sweet alyssum is a favorite for attracting ladybugs, while herbs like dill, fennel, parsley, and cilantro support short-tongued beneficial insects. Adding daisy-family flowers such as yarrow, calendula, and marigolds helps maintain a balanced ecosystem.
By adopting this habitat-based approach, farmers can significantly cut back on chemical sprays, improve soil health, support greater biodiversity, and create safer working environments, all while maintaining or even boosting crop yields.
