Republicans are attempting to ram through a provision to sell millions in acres in CA, including land around Yosemite, Mt. Shasta, Lake Tahoe & Big Sur, as part of their big ugly bill.

Our federal public treasures shouldn't be sold off to the highest bidder.

I will fight this, tooth & nail.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism

As Dissent in Bloom reported: “That’s not split-ticket voting. That’s a mathematical anomaly.”

As I expected, the government ignored the 9:30 a.m. deadline set by the federal court in Maryland.

The court moved the deadline to 11:30 a.m.

As I expected, the government ignored the 11:30 deadline.

A 1:00 p.m. court hearing was scheduled.

As I expected, the government demanded it be canceled.
