//The Wire//2300Z August 4, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: MULTIPLE BOMB MAKERS ARRESTED AROUND THE USA. CHILEAN HEIST CREW MEMBER ARRESTED AFTER ATM ROBBERY INVOLVING EXPLOSIVES. MASS SHOOTING REPORTED IN MONTANA, SUSPECT AT LARGE. MIGRANT CRIME CONTINUES TO INFLAME TENSIONS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-United Kingdom: Immigration scandals have continued as another assault case has come to light over the past few days. A young child was assaulted by two Afghan "refugees" in Birmingham last week, who have been identified as Ahmad Mulakhil and Mohammad Kabir.Analyst Comment: This case has served as yet another catalyst for public anger to rise, as the British government continues to not just allow these horrific crimes to occur, but is actively working to protect the criminals and prosecute those expressing anger about these attacks. In this case, Warwickshire Police are under fire for deliberately requesting local officials to withhold the details of this crime from the public, to protect the criminals.-HomeFront-New York: Over the weekend a minor earthquake was observed throughout New York City and New Jersey, with an estimated magnitude of 3.0. No major damage was reported.Montana: A mass shooting was reported at the Owl Bar in Anaconda on Friday. Authorities have identified the shooter as Michael Paul Brown, who was seen fleeing the scene in a stolen pickup truck (which was found some time later Friday night). 4x people were killed during the engagement, and a local manhunt remains underway with authorities theorizing that he may still be in the local area.Tennessee: An IED Factory was discovered at the home of a local man in the unincorporated township of Old Fort on Friday. Kevin Wade O'Neal was arrested for making threats against public officials, and during the arrest officers allegedly smelled something burning in a back room. This resulted in the discovery of 14x explosive devices, at least one of which had been ignited (but failed to detonate).Analyst Comment: Much like other IED discoveries as of late, the photo evidence of the devices themselves confirm that these devices were exceptionally crude in their construction, indicating the user had little to no training in the construction of explosives.California: One of the members of an infamous Chilean heist crew was arrested in Newport Beach, after he attempted to use explosives to breach an ATM at a local Target store two weeks ago.Analyst Comment: The use of explosive breaching in robbery cases is rare, but becoming more common around the world following this being the robbery method of choice in South Africa. Regarding this specific case, the use of explosives in California is common enough that this did not get national news coverage until it was revealed that the man who was arrested, was a member of the Chilean heist crew which conducted several bank heists throughout the west coast last year.California: In a separate case, a bomb maker was arrested at his residence in Long Beach Friday afternoon, following an investigation by the FBI. Mark Lorenzo Villanueva was arrested after he sent money to what he thought was an affiliate group of ISIS. During the search of Villanueva's residence, an Improvised Explosive Device was found.Washington D.C. - Scandal has erupted following the discovery of a new addition to Department of Homeland Security doctrine. Back in April of this year, the Department of Homeland Security published their updated terms and conditions for receiving disaster aid for FY 2025. Though it was not observed by many at the time, this morning a few mainstream media outlets became aware of this doctrine change, which now includes specific language preventing disaster aid from flowing to states which have not signed a pledge to not-boycott Israel.

This Day in Legal History: Eisenhower Signs Act Creating NASAOn July 29, 1958, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the National Aeronautics and Space Act into law, officially creating NASA. The legislation emerged in response to growing Cold War tensions and the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik the previous year. It marked a pivotal shift in U.S. federal priorities, establishing a civilian-led space agency to coordinate scientific exploration, aeronautics research, and peaceful uses of space. NASA began operations on October 1, 1958, absorbing the earlier National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) and ushering in a new era of government-backed technological ambition.Over the decades, NASA has become a symbol of American innovation, from landing astronauts on the moon to deploying the Hubble Space Telescope. Its work has catalyzed advancements not only in spaceflight, but also in climate science, materials engineering, and telecommunications. The legal framework underpinning NASA reflects a national consensus that science and exploration are critical public goods deserving of federal investment and support.But 67 years later, that consensus is showing strain. Just yesterday, NASA announced that nearly 4,000 employees—about 20% of its workforce—are leaving the agency through the Trump administration's deferred resignation program. This mass exodus follows proposed budget cuts and internal restructuring driven by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a key player in Trump's effort to slash the federal workforce.The timing couldn't be worse. The administration has called for both sweeping workforce reductions and a significant budget cut of nearly 24% for FY 2026, even as it touts long-term funding increases in the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Scientists and space advocates, including The Planetary Society, have criticized the inconsistency, calling it a direct threat to American leadership in space. A group of over 300 NASA employees echoed that concern in a public letter this week, denouncing the changes as "rapid and wasteful" and warning that they jeopardize the agency's mission.What began as a proud moment of bipartisan support for science and exploration now faces a political climate where expertise is undervalued and institutional stability is sacrificed for short-term optics.Nearly 4,000 NASA employees opt to leave agency through deferred resignation programIn her latest appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, Ghislaine Maxwell argues that her 2021 federal sex trafficking conviction should be overturned because it violated a 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) originally struck between Jeffrey Epstein and federal prosecutors in Florida. Maxwell contends that the agreement, which shielded Epstein and his unnamed co-conspirators from federal charges in exchange for his state-level plea, should have also barred her later prosecution in New York. The Justice Department disputes this, saying the NPA applied only to the Southern District of Florida and does not merit Supreme Court review. Maxwell's brief criticizes the DOJ for focusing on Epstein's misconduct rather than the legal scope of the deal, framing the issue as one of government accountability to its promises. The Second Circuit previously upheld her conviction, finding no evidence that the NPA was meant to apply nationally. However, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers filed a brief supporting Maxwell, arguing that even atypical agreements must be honored if made by the government. Political tensions surrounding the Epstein case continue to complicate matters, as Maxwell recently met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche amid renewed scrutiny of the Trump administration's handling of Epstein's prosecution. The Supreme Court is expected to consider whether to hear the case in late September.Ghislaine Maxwell Tells Supreme Court Epstein Deal Shielded HerThe Trump administration has filed a judicial misconduct complaint against Chief U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, accusing him of violating judicial ethics by expressing concerns that the administration might defy court rulings, potentially triggering a constitutional crisis. The complaint centers on comments Boasberg allegedly made during a March meeting of the judiciary's policymaking body, which included Chief Justice John Roberts. The Justice Department argues that these remarks, later echoed in his rulings, undermined judicial impartiality—particularly in a case where Boasberg blocked the deportation of Venezuelan migrants using wartime powers under the Alien Enemies Act. The administration claims Boasberg acted on a political bias when he found probable cause to hold it in criminal contempt for defying his deportation order. The DOJ has asked the D.C. Circuit to reassign the case and refer the complaint to a special investigative panel. Boasberg, appointed to the federal bench by President Obama after an earlier nomination to the D.C. Superior Court by President George W. Bush, has not publicly responded. The D.C. Circuit stayed his contempt finding, and a final ruling is still pending.Trump administration files misconduct complaint against prominent judge Boasberg | ReutersThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has extended the suspension of 98-year-old Judge Pauline Newman for another year, citing her continued refusal to undergo a full neuropsychological evaluation to assess her fitness to serve. Despite submitting medical reports from her own experts asserting she is mentally competent, the court concluded that those reports were insufficient and contained inaccuracies, including concerns about memory issues and fainting episodes. Newman's legal team criticized the court's swift decision, arguing that their evidence and arguments were not seriously considered following a recent hearing. Newman, a respected patent law jurist appointed by President Reagan in 1984, is the oldest active federal judge who has not taken senior status and has been a prominent dissenter on the Federal Circuit. The court originally suspended her in 2023 after Chief Judge Kimberly Moore raised concerns about her cognitive and physical condition. Newman sued over the suspension, but her case was dismissed; it is now under review by a separate federal appeals court. The latest ruling reaffirms the court's insistence on comprehensive testing before any reconsideration of her judicial role.US appeals court extends suspension of 98-year-old judge in fitness probe | ReutersDonald Trump has asked a federal court to expedite a deposition of Rupert Murdoch in his $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal over a July 17 article linking him to Jeffrey Epstein. The article claimed Trump sent Epstein a 2003 birthday greeting that included a suggestive drawing and cryptic references to shared secrets—allegations Trump calls fabricated. In a court filing, Trump's lawyers said he informed Murdoch before publication that the letter was fake, and Murdoch allegedly responded that he would “take care of it,” which they argue demonstrates actual malice—a necessary legal threshold in defamation cases involving public figures. Trump's team is seeking Murdoch's testimony within 15 days, and Judge Darrin Gayles has ordered Murdoch to respond by August 4. The article's release has intensified political scrutiny of Trump's handling of the Epstein investigation. Legal analysts note Trump faces an uphill battle given the stringent standards for proving defamation, especially against media outlets. Dow Jones, which publishes the Journal, said it stands by its reporting and intends to vigorously defend the case.Trump asks for swift deposition of Murdoch in Epstein defamation case | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week argues that the latest shift in federal tax law—the move from the global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) regime to the net controlled foreign corporation tested income (NCTI) system—should push states to reassess their habitual conformity to the Internal Revenue Code. NCTI expands the scope of taxable foreign income for U.S. multinationals, reflecting a broader federal effort to combat base erosion and bolster global competitiveness. But when states automatically conform to these changes—especially through rolling conformity—they risk inheriting complex, federally motivated rules that don't align with their economic interests or legal authority.Rolling conformity is a mechanism by which a state automatically updates its tax code to reflect changes in the federal Internal Revenue Code as they occur, without requiring separate legislative action. While rolling conformity can reduce administrative friction, it's increasingly problematic in an era of aggressive and frequent federal tax rewrites. States adopting NCTI may find themselves without key federal mechanisms like foreign tax credits or Section 250 deductions, exposing them to potential legal challenges over extraterritorial taxation and apportionment. These lawsuits could be expensive, prolonged, and ultimately hinge on issues that federal tax policy has already moved past. I argue that states need to move beyond passive conformity and take an intentional, sovereign approach to tax policy—reviewing conformity statutes now, decoupling where necessary, and preparing to defend their fiscal independence in the face of Washington's rapid policy swings.Trump Tax Law Should Spur States to Split From Federal ‘Pendulum' This is a public episode.

AOTI Inc. CEO Dr. Mike Griffiths joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a key milestone in the company's commercial expansion strategy: the successful approval of a new Provider ID in California. This designation allows AOTI to begin securing insurance coverage and reimbursement for its patented TWO2® Topical Wound Oxygen therapy in the country's most populous Medicaid market, paving the way for broader growth in late 2026. California represents a major strategic opportunity, with 14.7 million individuals—or 38% of the population—covered under Medi-Cal, the state's Medicaid program. The addition of California marks the third state in 2025 where AOTI has secured provider status, aligning with the company's guidance of adding two to three states annually as part of its U.S. expansion. Griffiths emphasized that the TWO2® therapy, which is non-invasive and self-administered at home, has been clinically proven to significantly reduce the recurrence of Diabetic Foot Ulcers. Robust randomized controlled trials and real-world evidence have shown an 88% reduction in hospitalizations and a 71% reduction in amputations over 12 months—outcomes that not only improve quality of life but reduce healthcare system burden. Financially, AOTI reported 26% revenue growth in the first three months of the period and 37% growth for the six months ended March 31, 2025—driven by strong post-IPO momentum. Despite these short-term headwinds, AOTI remains confident in its long-term growth trajectory, forecasting mid-teens revenue growth and low double-digit adjusted EBITDA margins for FY 2025. The company views current macroeconomic challenges as transitional and reaffirmed its commitment to executing its strategic plan and expanding market access for its differentiated wound care technology. #proactiveinvestors #aotiinc #aim #aoti #DiabeticFootUlcers #WoundCare #OxygenTherapy #HealthcareInnovation #Medicaid #VeteransHealth #CaliforniaHealthcare #ProactiveInvestors

Welcome to "AI Lawyer Talking Tech," where we explore the profound shifts artificial intelligence is bringing to the legal profession. AI is transforming legal work, from alleviating burnout and enhancing communication to opening new career avenues for legal professionals. New tools are automating a variety of routine tasks, allowing lawyers to dedicate more time to strategic, higher-value work. This rapid evolution, however, presents a complex landscape of considerations, particularly concerning ethics, data privacy, accuracy, and the integrity of legal information. Today, we'll delve into how legal education is adapting to integrate AI skills, with some law schools now even requiring the use of generative AI for application essays, how firms are seeking to measure its true value and return on investment, and the essential steps required for its responsible and compliant implementation within the legal sphere.New Study Finds AI is Addressing The Human Issues in Legal: Burnout, Communication, and Career Opportunities21 Jul 2025Metro Atlanta CEOLexisNexis launches Protégé to help UK lawyers to complete legal tasks more easily and efficiently21 Jul 2025Legal FuturesHow Enterprise Legal Teams Can Track The ROI Of Their AI Tools21 Jul 2025Forbes.comPanel floats limits for artificial intelligence in Georgia courtrooms as odd cases pop up elsewhere21 Jul 2025Yahoo!

Originally uploaded April 11th, reloaded June 29th. Chris Holman welcomes Phil Roos, Director, EGLE - at EGLE (Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy - State of Michigan, Lansing, MI. Every year, EGLE releases an end-of-year report. Are there any milestones or initiatives you're particularly proud of that were included in this year's report? Brownfield redevelopment was highlighted in the report. Could you explain what the Brownfield Redevelopment Program is and its significance for communities across Michigan? What kind of measurable impact has the program had on Michigan's economy, environment and quality of life? The governor recently released her FY 26 budget recommendations. How do her recommendations support brownfield redevelopment as well as environmental sustainability and economic development? Contaminated and abandoned sites once seen as community liabilities are now thriving hubs of economic growth and revitalization across Michigan. Since 2019, the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's (EGLE) Brownfield Redevelopment Program has helped create 19,000 jobs, transforming 402 properties into vibrant spaces for businesses, housing and public use. Backed by more than $160 million in investments, this program is a testament to Michigan's leadership in responsible economic development—combining environmental stewardship with community renewal. These projects not only create jobs but also breathe new life into neighborhoods, turning challenges into opportunities for growth. The 2024 EGLE End of Year Report highlights this success and more, highlighting the program's transformative impact. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.michigan.gov/egle/-/media/Project/Websites/egle/Documents/Offices/Executive/Report-2024-EOY.pdf?rev=0b2bcfee775544d7a4e3b5ff44a164e5&hash=8F96B8E9929BE5C9A93383F6F2CA1D3E » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, takes a deep breath with Jenna Riemenschneider, Vice-President of Advocacy and Policy at the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (https://aafa.org/). In addition to covering the causes of asthma, its connections to air pollution, and what listeners can do to help mitigate it, we take a look at current threats to federal funding to address asthma. Asthma is the most common chronic disease in children, and the rates are rising in adults as well. As the Congressional budget process moves forward, it is important to understand the impact of the CDC's National Asthma Control Program (NACP) on our state and the President's FY 2026 Discretionary Budget Request. The administration's “Make America Healthy Again” goal of addressing chronic illness and promoting personal responsibility has mentioned asthma. But the President's budget proposal does not invest in asthma prevention and treatment. In fact, the NACP is at risk of elimination. The program was affected by “Reductions in Force” (RIFs) at the Department of Health and Human Services that occurred on April 1. While positions at the NACP have now been reinstated, the program is not included in the President's proposed budget and is slated to be eliminated — not because of performance, but because it was assumed duplicative under internal restructuring. But the NACP is not redundant. It is the only federal program solely focused on asthma prevention and surveillance. No other federal initiative plays this role. Congress holds the power of the purse. If lawmakers do not include specific funding for the NACP in the FY26 Labor-HHS appropriations bill, the program could be eliminated—despite its long history of bipartisan support and strong outcomes. Nearly 400,000 Kentucky adults and 47,000 children have asthma. During the 2021–2022 school year, there were 39,213 students diagnosed with asthma, making it the most common chronic health condition in Kentucky schools. The Kentucky Asthma Management Program (KAMP) – funded by NACP – created a school-focused program that showed a 97% increase in improved school nurse knowledge of asthma care changes, medications, and administration. KAMP programs reduced pediatric uncontrolled asthma by 35% and improved asthma outcomes for more than 10,000 children. Kentucky receives just over $500,000 a year from the NACP each year and the funded programs save the state more than $36 million a year in reduced health care costs. Asthma is one of the most common and costly diseases in the U.S., affecting over 28 million Americans, including about 5 million children. Without prevention, costs will rise—especially for emergency care and hospitalizations. The NACP has a proven return on investment. It saves $71 for every $1 spent by preventing unnecessary ER visits and improving disease management. That's exactly the kind of smart, efficient spending taxpayers expect. Cutting NACP means higher Medicaid and Medicare spending. States will see more ER visits, and higher long-term costs for both public and private insurers. Asthma leads to lost productivity. Asthma is a leading reason for missed school days, which not only affects a student's academic performance but also causes missed work days for parents and guardians.

We are back to France — the current epicentre of European credit stress — for our second episode of Distressed Diaries.Over the last few months, French lab company Cerba's debt has taken a beating as fears mount over its unsustainable €3.8bn capital. Most recently, 9fin reported that creditors have started to organise and appointed legal advisors in the lead up to possible debt negotiations.There's no lack of drama in this episode. First, the company's liquidity has been hit by the French government's decision to cut tariffs on lab tests in September last year. Then CEO Emmanuel Ligner unexpectedly stepped down in March with his replacement Julien Samson only joining in early June.The weak performance has meant climbing net leverage (to 9.3x in Q1 25 from 8.4x in FY 24), followed by recent S&P's downgrade to CCC+ and listing of its debt from CLOs.In this episode, our host, senior distressed reporter Bianca Boorer, sits down with 9fin's senior distressed credit analyst Denitsa Stoyanova and senior legal consultant Rebecca Davies to talk about Cerba's financial situation, creditors' reactions, how the company plans to address this, what is possible under the debt docs, and more.9fin's analysis of Cerba's capital structure is here and a deep dive over LME and liquidity options is here.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 5th of June and here are the headlines.1. Karnataka HC Seeks Report on RCB Victory Parade StampedeThe Karnataka High Court has directed the state government to submit a detailed report on the tragic stampede at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium during RCB's IPL victory parade, which killed 11 and injured 33. The court seeks clarity on causes, preventability, and future safeguards. CM Siddaramaiah ordered a magisterial probe led by Bengaluru Urban Deputy Commissioner. Overcrowding—2–3 lakh attendees in a stadium built for 35,000—caused chaos. Compensation of ₹10 lakh and free treatment was announced.2. Rafale Jet Fuselages to Be Made in India by TataIn a significant move for India's defence sector, Tata Advanced Systems will produce Rafale fighter jet fuselages in Hyderabad under a new deal with France's Dassault Aviation. This marks the first time Rafale components will be manufactured outside France. The Hyderabad plant will build key sections including front, central, and rear fuselages. Production will start by FY 2027-28, with capacity to deliver two fuselages per month. The facility will serve both Indian and international markets.3. Mahua Moitra Marries Former BJD MP Pinaki MisraTMC MP Mahua Moitra, known for her strong speeches in Parliament, has married Supreme Court lawyer and former BJD MP Pinaki Misra. The couple tied the knot in a quiet ceremony in Berlin, Germany, on May 30. Moitra confirmed the marriage to The Indian Express. A photograph of the newlyweds at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate has surfaced and was published by The Telegraph, drawing attention to their low-profile union amid Moitra's high-profile political life.4. Trump Reinstates Controversial Travel Ban on 12 NationsUS President Donald Trump has reinstated a sweeping travel ban impacting citizens from 12 countries, including Iran, Yemen, and Somalia, while tightening restrictions on seven others. Effective from Monday, the rollout includes a short grace period to avoid past chaos. The updated ban builds on a version upheld by the US Supreme Court. Additional curbs now apply to travellers from countries like Cuba, Laos, and Venezuela. Trump cited national security as the key reason for the move.5. Trump Suspends Harvard Exchange Visas in Escalating DisputePresident Donald Trump has signed a proclamation suspending foreign nationals enrolled in exchange programs at Harvard University, escalating tensions between the White House and the Ivy League institution. The directive also asks the State Department to consider revoking visas of some current international students. Harvard alleges political retaliation after it resisted federal pressure to alter its governance and curriculum. The suspension is part of Trump's broader push to regulate academic institutions seen as ideologically opposed.That's all for today. This was the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express.

The White House has released its Fiscal Year 2026 congressional budget justification for NASA, and the implications are staggering. If enacted, this proposal would slash NASA’s science program funding by nearly half, cancel dozens of active and upcoming missions, and reduce the agency’s workforce by one-third. Sarah Al-Ahmed is joined by Jack Kiraly, The Planetary Society’s director of government relations, to examine what’s in the nearly 500-page document, what it means for the future of space science and exploration, and how advocates can still act to save NASA science. Then, in What’s Up, Planetary Society Chief Scientist Bruce Betts shares insights on China’s newly launched asteroid sample return mission, Tianwen-2. The spacecraft will rendezvous with near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamoʻoalewa, offering new scientific opportunities amidst a moment of global uncertainty in space exploration.

The federal Technology Modernization Fund has had a bumpy relationship with congressional appropriators since its creation in 2017, and now the Trump administration wants to sidestep the appropriations process entirely to replenish the fund on an annual basis with unused money transferred from agencies. The White House on Friday quietly issued an in-depth appendix of its budget request for fiscal 2026, and executive agencies followed suit, publishing their annual budget justification documents. The General Services Administration, which houses the TMF program and disburses its funds, revealed in its 2026 justification that the Trump administration did not request any “new discretionary appropriated funding for the TMF” in 2026, instead proposing a new model for how it could pull money from other agencies, up to $100 million, to re-up the fund each fiscal year. “President's FY 2026 budget request includes a governmentwide general provision that will allow GSA, with approval of OMB, to collect unobligated balances of expired discretionary funds from other agencies and bring that funding into the TMF,” the justification explains. “To further strengthen the TMF's ability to help agencies kickstart or accelerate their urgent modernization efforts, GSA and OMB are committed to exploring alternative funding mechanisms.” Historically, the sitting administration has called on Congress to fund the TMF on an annual basis, with varying degrees of success. Pentagon procurement officials who are looking to up their expertise in buying cutting-edge tech for the U.S. military can now apply to join the 2026 Immersive Commercial Acquisition Program fellowship cohort, Defense Innovation Unit officials announced Tuesday. Next year will mark the fourth iteration of the educational ICAP initiative, which DIU runs in partnership with the Defense Acquisition University. This fellowship is designed to provide DOD's leading procurement professionals with hands-on experience and virtual training to help them more effectively buy in-demand commercial technologies from non-traditional military contractors. DIU's Deputy Director for Commercial Operations Liz Young McNally told DefenseScoop during a panel at the Special Competitive Studies Project's AI+ Expo. “We have other acquisition officers from across the department who can apply to the year-long fellowship with DIU — to learn our process, how we work with industry, and then bring that back to wherever they're going. And [the next ICAP application] just opened today.”If tapped for the fellowship, personnel will get a chance to work on a variety of real-world, military service-aligned projects alongside a DIU contracting officer, project team and commercial solution providers. The fellows will also gain in-depth instruction on a flexible contracting mechanism designed for rapid prototyping and acquisition of commercial tech, known as other transaction (OT) authority.

What if food didn't have to come from animals—or even plants? In this episode, Nil Zacharias sits down with Thomas Jonas, CEO and co-founder of Nature's Fynd, to explore the origins of Fy, a microbial protein discovered in a Yellowstone hot spring that's grown through fermentation without soil, sunlight, or traditional agriculture. They discuss the company's unconventional path, why they stayed quiet while others chased the hype, and how Fy is powering a new category of food—from dairy-free cream cheese to meatless breakfast patties. It's a conversation about building what comes after agriculture, the future of protein as a platform, and how to stay focused when the rest of the industry loses its way.
