Trump will stop this crap!

Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)

. The NIETCs are meant to connect massive new construction of wind and solar facilities,

Yeah ...

NO THANK YOU.

Shut it down.

I thought the feds still owned the majority of land west of the - why wouldn’t they set the preferred route through those properties first instead of trying for ED on private property....sheesh

[george76]

The left run by Bill Gates, China, and their pals hate private property / likes to steal it. = War on food, too..

Introducing Canadian wolf packs to kill family ranchers and farmers, too.

[catnipman]

no F-ing way a 5-15 mile wide corridor is needed for electricity transmission ... not only that, all that is needed is an easement, NOT the actual property ..

[PeterPrinciple]

underneath this was to put in under the authority of a non profit using federal funds.

IF THIS IS ALL A BIDEN EO-—

TRUMP CAN CANCEL IT ALL WITH A NEW EO.

15 to 25 MILES WIDE seems like a land grab—nothing else.

DESTRUCTION OF GENERATIONS OF RANCHES & FARMS.

[george76]

They want a wide corridor to steal farm land , just to start.

[Mogger]

If the gov must do solar (stupid IMHO) but if it must, just do it and transmission lines over present highways and parking lots.

The real savings wouldn't be the electricity, but no longer having to plow snow or salt the roads.

The electricity would just be an added bonus, too bad it's only in the day time, when not covered with snow or under cloud cover.

[ridesthemiles]

HARD TO CALL 15-25 MILES WIDE A “CORRIDOR”.

ANOTHER BIDEN ‘JERK US OFF’ PLAN.

[Red Badger]

5-15 miles wide?

That is patently ridiculous!

Even 1 mile is ridiculous!..................

[george76]

NIETC is not about strengthening our energy grid — it’s about forcing a progressive radical climate agenda on rural America with no regard for the people who actually live and work there

[teeman8r]

what a bunch of hot air... wind is.

[Sequoyah101]

Looks like another bridge from nowhere to nowhere.

The green energy crap is reminding me of rocket fuel plants and the various missile batteries of the 50’s and 60’s. Obsolete before they are finished.

[UCANSEE2]

Two reasons.

First, a huge pile of funding will be set up that politicians and contractors can pilfer while actually doing nothing.

Second, it will establish a 5-15 mile wide swath of protected land for the Illegal Border Crosser’s Heart of America Highway.

The U.S. has an egg shortage because of the mass killing of chickens. = War on food.
