The first is the climate impacts of these dc developments. The dramatic increase in fossil use and water extraction. The Abundance bros are here to lay the ground work here.

Turns out some of the people on the right who were fixated on the Constitution and government overreach actually might be concerned about the Constitution and government overreach.
Ammon Bundy on ICE: “To call such people criminals for lacking official permission” to be in the country is to “forget the moral law of God, the historical truth of our own founding, and the Constitutional ideals that continue to define justice.”
