Generation 5 AZ rancher fighting solar energy conglomerates who want our land. I just want to keep ranching and stewarding the land for beef and wildlife.

When the solar conglomerates made their first move to throw my cattle off the range a few years back, @SineKerr was the first one I talked to. At the time she was in the state senate. She helped hold them off for a long time. Now she has come back to my defense a second time as the solar scammers have renewed their efforts.
I was extremely happy to see Sine become the candidate for LT Governor.
As a farmer and small business owner, I know what it means to work hard.
The ranchers & farmers in our state are trying to survive, but Katie Hobbs is making it nearly impossible by supporting foreign interests first.
@andybiggs4az and I will always put Arizonans first!

Katie Hobbs is effectively spitting on you and your family’s rich history of agriculture here in Arizona. I am not surprised though. She wants to ruin our agriculture with her urban politics.
We need Andy Biggs and Sine Kerr, who will actually support Arizona’s agriculture.

They have known since 2013 utility scale solar uses too much water and is not sustainable

🎸In history, tyrants were challenged first, by the bards
After witnessing first hand the persecution of Upstate NY landowners, I was inspired to write a song. I'm really looking forward to @GovKathyHochul hearing this tune blasting across her state:) Get ready for:
"Dear Kathy"👌

She doesn’t descend from Charles and Molly Perkins. This is very clear.

Industrial solar is the single biggest threat to agriculture. It is a larger threat that the dust bowl droughts were, it is a larger threat than floods or cold or catastrophic snowstorms. All of that have been and will be survivable.
This week a council approved a solar farm on two hundred and thirty-five acres of grazing, and the family who had run cattle on it for generations said it would probably finish them. The panels will be there for forty years. The cattle were there for four hundred.
The land is not the developer's. It belongs to an estate or a pension fund, and the developer offers a rent per acre no cow has ever earned. The farmer gets a letter. The council, told to triple solar by a minister who has never kept a beast, finds that the loss of a herd is not a planning consideration.
So the field goes under glass. In Britain a solar array produces for about one hour in nine. It makes most in June at noon, when the country needs it least, and nothing on a January evening, when it needs it most, so a gas station is kept idling behind every one. The panels are made in China from polysilicon out of a province the government will not name. They lose output every year they stand there, and at the end there is no plan and no bond for taking them away. A quarter of a million square metres of glass, aluminium and copper cable, in a field, with a thirty-year lease and a company that will not exist when it ends.
Under the panels the grass dies for want of light, the soil compacts under the plant, and the hedges go because the fence has to be electric and the fence has to be straight. The sheep in the brochure are for the photograph.
The cattle were a solar panel already. Grass takes the light, the cow converts it, and the output is beef, every day of the year, on no cable, no subsidy and no inverter, for as long as there is rain.
They have replaced a power station that makes dinner with one that works on a sunny afternoon and sits dead the rest of the time, and the family who ran the first one are being evicted to make room for the second.

I have a word to say about this 'supposed' support for Arizona ag families, Govenor @katiehobbs.
My great grandfather helped make a state out of the wild Arizona territory. He didn't do that to see a governor like you push his great-great grandchildren off the land for foreign owned solar conglomerates.
What have you got to say to me about that?
Arizona farmers keep America fed, but disastrous Washington policies are making life harder for them. This morning I had the opportunity to speak to one of those farmers, Jesus Tovar, and tour his farm in Somerton.
I’m proud to work with farmers like Jesus to support Arizona’s agricultural industry and keep food on Arizonans’ tables.

At the end of the day, I want my children to know what we stood for, who we loved, and why we never quit.

This is the reason why
Our kids deserve more than the freedom we have left. They deserve for us to have the courage to protect it.

Good morning, folks...
And in Bend, OR, yet another armed citizen prevents further bloodshed.
Meanwhile, the Communist Democrats can't stand for you to be armed.

When I met Alex in DC in June, It was clear she was going to go a long way. She is very smart, very well spoken, great at public speaking. She has brought the fight to these solar crooks better than anyone I know.
If saving open spaces, wildlife habitat, farms and ranches is important to you, and you would like to help, consider a donation to her American land rescue fund, go to her page to find the link.
She is focusing on NY state right now, but is not limited to it.
About to go on @NEWSMAX at 6:25pm! Carl Higbie.
Will be recapping the event we just had at my barn featuring @johnrich and the @USDA.
ORES is famous after today… and not in a good way!

Heartlander News first reported in August that just THREE days before Trump’s inauguration, the Biden admin approved changes that let a green energy nonprofit route billions in YOUR taxpayer money to several funds managed by Wall Street firms — and away from proper government oversight.

NEW from @HeartlanderNews: Trump's @EPA chief, @epaleezeldin, warned that no one should be spending taxpayer cash brought to them courtesy of Biden's giant green "slush fund"--as some have termed it.
A federal appeals court ruled in one grantee's favor on Friday, paving the way for at least $2.65 BILLION in taxpayer funds to be spent. On what? Beats the government. It says it can't trace the money.
I asked Zeldin if he's worried the agency won't be able to get the money back and if the EPA can do anything else about it at this point. Here's what he said...
