Haymes Hotel Launches Sustainable Modular Hotel Suites
LOS ANGELES, CA / / June 11, 2025 / Haymes Hotel, a forward-thinking hospitality company, announces the debut of its new line of prefabricated modular hotel suites. Designed to deliver "barefoot luxury," these turnkey suites merge architectural sophistication with environmental responsibility. A New Standard in Modular HospitalityHaymes Hotel introduces a compelling alternative to conventional lodging by offering elevated modular suites built for immersive, nature-connected experiences. Rather than following short-term trends, the brand focuses on long-term value and meaningful guest experiences. Distinct from glamping or tiny homes, each suite is fully equipped, delivering the comfort and quality of traditional hospitality while maintaining a seamless connection to the natural environment. Engineered for Local Compliance and CustomizationWhere many prefabricated developers face regulatory friction and generic output, Haymes Hotel builds every suite to local code from the outset. This site-specific compliance model accelerates approvals and mitigates costly delays. Each unit is also highly customizable. Clients can select from a curated palette of finishes and materials to ensure the suite harmonizes with its landscape. This approach balances efficiency with individuality without additional cost. Built Inside the Nation's Most Advanced Modular FacilityAll construction takes place inside a 200,000-square-foot MegaFactory in Patterson, California. The controlled environment includes dedicated work pods that eliminate weather disruptions and improve build consistency. Suites can be completed in as little as 45 days. The MegaFactory itself is powered by renewable energy, including FreeVolt PV Graf™ solar panels and Tesla's Megapack storage system. To date, over 37,000 pounds of embodied carbon have been eliminated through strategic material selection, including the avoidance of steel, copper, and vinyl. Materials are evaluated not only for performance and aesthetics but also for sustainability. For example, Haymes Hotel uses hemp fiber batt insulation made of 90% natural fiber. It contains no VOCs or toxins, delivers superior performance, and is safe for installers and guests alike. Modern Ownership Meets Direct-to-Guest TechnologyHaymes Hotel is also reimagining how rooms are marketed and managed. Guests book directly through bypassing third-party fees common to platforms like Airbnb. For owners, the company is developing proprietary software that streamlines bookings, maintenance, and performance tracking, allowing individuals to own income-producing hotel real estate with minimal overhead. About Haymes HotelHaymes Hotel designs and manufactures sustainable, prefabricated modular hotel suites for short-term rental in remote and scenic locations.

Jim Cramer says it's time for the U.S. to negotiate with other countries for rare earth minerals
CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday said it's necessary for the U.S. to negotiate with countries other than China for rare earth minerals. "We need to make these rare earth deals with the same alacrity that the White House gave out the reciprocal tariffs on 'liberation day.' We need them yesterday," he said. "Then, and only then, will we truly be liberated." China dominates the global market for these critical minerals, producing about 60% and processing almost 90%, CNBC reported. The materials are used in most electronics and are vital to the automotive and defense industries. Officials have warned that the U.S.'s dependence on China for the minerals poses a strategic issue. China imposed export restrictions on rare earth minerals back in April in response to President Donald Trump's harsh tariff hikes. Trump said on Wednesday that China will supply the minerals up front to the U.S. as part of a trade agreement. While he posted on Truth Social that the deal is "done," he also said it's "subject to final approval" between himself and Chinese President Xi Jinping. According to Cramer, the U.S. needs to reach out to countries like Brazil, Vietnam and Australia, who have the raw materials for earth minerals and magnets. The U.S. should make deals with these countries immediately and perhaps wave the high tariffs that the White House put on their imports, he said. Cramer said the U.S. doesn't "have the cards," in negotiations with China because of its reliance on rare earth minerals, even as it tries to disrupt China's manufacturing economy. "What the heck were we thinking when we started a trade war without having this rare earths issue all buttoned up and ready to go?" he asked.

Wisconsin Democracy Campaign sues over Musk election payments
Tesla CEO Elon Musk listens as President Donald Trump speaks to reporters in the Oval Office of the White House on May 30, 2025 in Washington, D.C. (Photo by) The Wisconsin Democracy Campaign is suing billionaire Elon Musk over allegations that he violated multiple state laws, including the election bribery statute, when he offered voters a potential $1 million award for signing a petition as part of his effort to sway the result of Wisconsin's April Supreme Court election. Represented by Wisconsin's Law Forward, Democracy Defenders Fund and New York-based law firm Hecker Fink, the lawsuit accuses the world's richest man of implementing 'a brazen scheme to bribe Wisconsin citizens to vote.' Musk and his political action committee, America PAC, played a major role in this spring's election becoming the most expensive judicial campaign in American history. Musk's involvement in the race, which came as he was leading President Donald Trump's cost-cutting initiatives and firing thousands of federal employees through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), was widely seen as causing a backlash and helping Dane County Judge Susan Crawford defeat Musk-backed Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel. Musk and his PAC spent more than $20 million on the race. Prior to the election, America PAC offered voters $100 if they signed a petition 'in opposition to activist judges,' and another $100 if they referred another voter to sign the petition. Later, at a pre-election rally in Green Bay, Musk handed out two $1 million checks to voters, which had been advertised as awards 'in appreciation for you taking the time to vote.' The lawsuit, filed in Dane County court, notes it is against the law to offer anyone more than $1 to induce them to go to the polls, vote or vote for a particular candidate. 'By offering and paying Wisconsin citizens amounts far greater than $1 to vote, Defendants violated Wisconsin's election bribery law,' the lawsuit states. 'Defendants' payments and offers of payment to Wisconsin voters, made with the clear intent to aid one candidate and induce Wisconsinites to vote, threatened the integrity of the election and damaged public confidence in the electoral system.' Jeff Mandell, Law Forward's general counsel, said the lawsuit was meant to prevent efforts like Musk's from becoming a regular occurrence. 'We are fighting for free and fair elections,' Mandell said. 'We believe our democracy demands better than schemes like the one detailed in our complaint. So, we are working to hold Musk accountable and stop this from becoming the new normal.'
