"Not one acre" became a rallying cry against Utah Sen. Mike Lee's attempt to sell off millions of acres of public land for housing development. The Trump admin has a similar proposal, with ~400k on the chopping block. Will 'not one acre' carry over? publicdomain.media/p/trump-team-e…
Burgum on wind energy: "We've got issues environmentally with both fish and birds...migrating birds." wait until he learns about the impact of oil waste pits on birds and what his boss did to the migratory bird treat act....
Thank goodness for @POTUS for bringing common sense back to energy policy!
at 8 min mark, Sen. Curtis comes a whisker from saying Sen. Lee set the anti-fed land movement backward says "the narrative got away from us," that Lee's effort was "a bigger swing" and maybe "we need to break it down into smaller, more digestible pieces" youtube.com/watch?v=9S1g_r…
.@JamesCTobias and I are back from a wild trip down the Main Salmon. Floated through a wildfire, caught a gorgeous bull trout (quite a surprise!), gazed at the stars, drank beer from a booty after capsizing in a Class IV rapid. Feeling alive, humbled and recharged.

Aubrie Spady, who covered Interior chief Doug Burgum as a reporter at Fox News, was recently hired as Burgum's deputy press secretary. Her father is a longtime conservative operative with close ties to the MAGA world. publicdomain.media/p/aubrie-spady…
“join us in celebrating the greatest country on Earth, the United States of America, the MAGA way...." gone are the days of Ryan Zinke’s MAGA socks being a clear Hatch Act violation
This week, Interior celebrates 249 years of American liberty. Happy Birthday, America! 🇺🇸

*poof* goes the websites for the US Global Change Research Program and the National Climate Assessment it coordinates across 14 federal agencies, the most authoritative US report on climate change. WH says congressionally mandated reports will live on at NASA website.
after saying nothing publicly about Lee's attack on public lands when it mattered, Trump Jr. looks for credit for Lee pulling the toxic proposal while trying to make Lee out to be hero in this story lol
Huge win for our public lands! Very grateful for our team @hunternation, where I am proud to be a board member, for working so tirelessly to get this bill that would have sold off our public lands pulled. I’m also thankful for @senmikelee for being willing to listen and change…

#BREAKING @BasedMikeLee says he's stripped the public lands sale out of the Big, Beautiful, Bill because he couldn't guarantee the land would be sold to Americans. @abc4utah #utpol
