Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

This should terrify us all:
The bill's primary purpose is to reorganize the management of federal lands along the U.S. southern and northern borders, potentially shifting jurisdiction from agencies like the Department of the Interior and Department of Agriculture to the Department of Defense.
