Article 1, Section 8 very specifically lays out what land the federal government can legally own.

10 square miles for seat of federal government (Wash DC), and plots or sites necessary for forts, arsenals, dry-docks and needful BUILDINGS.

There is not one thing in The Constitution which gives the fed gov legal authority to own large tracts of land just to own them.

Also, the deal between Nevada and the fed gov at the time of statehood is completely non op and non legit by any reasonable reading of Art 1, Sec 8.

Lets not forget that corrupt politics and bad judgements from courts isn’t a recent invention.

And just to mention the fact that the US Government has “given” promises to China for land ownership in exchange for debts.

So in my view this is ultimately a war against the Chinese, as its them who are awaiting down the road to take possession of property in America.

I for one do not like the idea anything i own is being taken away and given to a foreign power.
