Native Tribes Frozen Out Of Controversial Plan For Bears Ears Monument

[douglas9]

Federal law requires our government to consult with Native American tribes about the Bears Ears monument in southern Utah. But Trump is only giving lip service at best to attempts to the Navajo, Hopi and others about what was once the second-largest national monument in the lower 48 states, before Trump shrunk it by 85%.

Now, the general public has less than a week to file public comments on Interior Secretary David Bernhardt’s plan that could turn could add more ATV trails and approve cell phone towers and utility lines to what are now two smaller monuments. Bernhardt has appointed an advisory committee that doesn’t include anyone who supported creating the monument in the first place.

“The BLM and the Forest Service are asking people who don’t think the monument should exist for advice on how to manage it,” said Josh Ewing, executive director of Friends of Cedar Mesa.

1. As if enough evil hadn't been perpetrated against the Original people in the Western Hemisphere.....

Ignorant soulless criminals are determined to do it all over again.

Everything done by this new horde of thieving, murderous squatters should be reversed as quickly as humanly possible.

Any laws which protect this kind of behavior were fashioned by monstrosities serving the interests of greedy ghouls who've been hiding beneath Satan's tail.
