President Joe Biden will sign a proclamation on Tuesday establishing a new monument at Arizona’s Grand Canyon, protecting nearly 1 million acres of public land that some Native American tribes consider sacred grounds.

The move will also prohibit new uranium mining claims. Some local Mohave County leaders support protecting the land but opposed the ban on mining, citing the $29 billion worth of uranium deposits it holds.

Isn’t every piece of ground where Native Americans have walked, “Sacred Ground.”
It’s not that a culture doesn’t have special places…I just got sick of being told that every cool place in the West was Sacred Ground and that I needed to pay Johnny Running Bear $50 to venture onto it. If it’s so friggin sacred…no one should go on it.
Between Clinton, 0bama, and Brandon, most of US mining assets are locked up, including oil.
Saving it for the Children, you know!
I would turn the 1 million acres over to the local tribes so that they can develop them for their benefit, no strings attached.
Sacre4d ground my.......
You are correct. Many Native Americans especially in the Southwest consider the entire earth “sacred ground.” The green weenies have been quick to use it a fig-leaf to cover their real agenda.
I’m wondering if this land is owned by crooked Harry Reid? I believe he owns a bunch of land in Arizona.
Every thing is sacred to the Indians unless they want to build a casino on it.
This is particular area is for the Havasupai tribe. They claim to have always been there, were even spawned there. But DNA evidence shows they migrated across the Bearing Strait. They won a lawsuit against Arizona State Univ about being able to deny the scientific fact that they migrated to here like everybody else. LOL
Some oil industry geologists told me that Alberta Indian bands hired oil industry geologists to help them define their “Sacred Sites”.
Is Harry Reid still alive? I remember he retired after that vicious beating he took that blinded him in one eye. Haven’t heard about him much since?
An important Regime Tactic is to shut down domestic production and make the population depend on imports.
The Administrative State has much greater control over international trade.
They have done this everywhere, Europe, UK, USA, oil production, natural gas. Even in the US states they shut down in-State generating capacity and rely on imports.
The procurement of wampum from Pale Face is a sacred rite. Also, it is sacred to sell him duty-free tobacco.
I seem to reccomember President BillyJeff protecting the “Sacred Coal Deposits” with the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument proclamation back around 1996.
No benefit to Reid...he’s pretty protective pf these lands.
Cormac Mccarthy’s Judge said it best. War is God. Most Indians were warrior cultures. Not all tribes, but most. The Sioux and Comanche and Apache were the Spartans of North America. They conquered, slaughtered, enslaved and ate each other. They stole land and hunting grounds. War was their religion and way of life. Earth Mother? Bah, humbug
The uranium is there, but cannot be removed.
Solution: Remove the Democrats. Use any method available. Then, one can safely remove the uranium, solve our pretend CO2 problems with nuclear energy, improve the country’s IQ and morality by disposing of inferior refuse (you listenin’ media?), and cause everything to smell a whole hell of a lot better.
The President of a defunct corporation sitting in the abandoned shell of the former seat of govt will sign a “proclamation” which is not congressional legislation and carries no legal weight or authority.
Wakey wakey people.
Yep, you nailed it.
The land is sacred to those folks, hence any issue is about
sacred land.
