NEW: Kentucky family rejects $26 million offer to convert part of their farm into a data center despite the offer being about 10 times the going rate for farmland in the area.
"If it's my way, I'll stay and hold and feed a nation. 26 million doesn't mean anything."
"As long as I'm on this land, as long as it's feeding me, as long as it's taking care of me, there's nothing that can destroy me if I've got this land."

West Michigan got golf-ball-sized hail last night. Maybe Governor Whitmer should go check on her precious solar sprawl. She wants that to be the only energy we use after all.
From the replies:
"When a solar panel farms turns into a toxic waste farm
...
Idiots create these solar farms as if bad weather never happens. Solar is unreliable, unscalable, unaffordable, and fragile.
...
the land is now a toxic waste site, the land can't be use for grazing (animals will eat shards of glass) and the land can't be farmed, as during harvest bits of glass will be stirred up with the dust.
...
These damaged panels will potentially be leeching cadmium, lead and PFAS into the ground water. Under typical service where the cells remain encapsulated there is little heavy metals and chemicals compounds that are shed by the panels. The dangers are when the encapsulated cells are shattered in which the heavy metals are released."
🚨 A solar farm in Indiana was destroyed Tuesday after severe storms ripped through the area.
And Democrats want these to replace gas and coal?
No, thanks!
Thank you, President Trump!!
Illinois is being crushed with record-high energy bills because of useless wind and solar from CHINA.
It’s time to end this SCAM and bring back reliable, affordable energy for our families and farmers!
