Another story that will be ignored by the MSM, but if a mean old Republican did it, we’d see it on ABC/CBS/NBC for sure.
Just build the road and tell the feds to pound sand.
Alaska has few roads - most of the vast interior is unpopulated. Fairbanks is the only major city of any size south of the Alaska Range.
Maybe it’s time for the feds to get out of the landlords business!!!
:snip:Nineteen Alaskans have died attempting to fly out of King Cove, whose airstrip is frequently closed because of treacherous wind sheer.

There is so much fodder building against quack science and those who enforce it, this election cycle should be a doozie.

They should just plow and grade the road under Governors proclamation.
Sounds like it’s time for the government to send 200-300 armed Farce Enlawment Orifices to make sure the peasants don’t get uppity, and build a road on the sly on The King’s Land.
If all the eelgrass disappeared tomorrow none of the enviros would even notice.
Just build it. The land belongs to Alaska not Obama. It’s your state and the Feds have no constitutional authority to dictate to the state where or under what circumstances you can build a road to assist the citizens of your state.
If the feds interfere, then just show them the border and ask them to cross back over it. If that doesn’t work, then call out the militia.
Wasn’t this the incident where Jewell went to the village to hear their petition, then told them “I’ve heard your story, but now I need to hear the animals”, and then ended up denying the road because it might affect some species of duck?
Solution:
Jewell should be dropped off out in the middle of the Alaskan wilderness. Maybe the ducks can help her survive and make it out.
