Criminal Trump GOP RICO Kills Planet For Cash End GOP Save Life On Earth



Trump to Miners, Loggers and Drillers: This Land Is Your Land

From Alaska’s Tongass National Forest to Minnesota’s Boundary Waters, the Trump administration wants to despoil, not preserve, America’s resources.

The tug-of-war over America’s public lands between those who would protect them for future generations and those who would exploit them for immediate commercial gain has a long history. The two Roosevelts, Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton were mostly sympathetic to the cause of conservation, Ronald Reagan and the second George Bush decidedly less so. But for sheer hostility to environmental valuesDonald Trump has no equal. Mr. Trump arrived in the White House with little interest in conservation, his idea of nature framed largely by his golf courses. He was, to boot, almost pathologically dedicated to obliterating anything President Obama had done to reduce global warming gases, preserve open space and help endangered species. This translated into a simple operating strategy: Get rid of things the fossil fuel industry didn’t like  and rubber-stamp the stuff it wanted. Hence the rollback of Obama rules limiting power plant emissions of greenhouse gases, and the proposed rollback of regulations governing methane, a powerful global warming gas. (Next up, it seems certain, is the reversal of Obama rules mandating more fuel-efficient vehicles.)


Hence also the gifts over the last two years to mining and oil and gas interests of vast areas previously shielded from exploration — two national monuments in Utah, millions of acres reserved for the threatened sage grouse, much of the outer continental shelf and the long-protected coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

That’s not all. In the shadow of these big ticket items, Mr. Trump has presided over several less visible travesties. We offer three. One is his push to open the Tongass National Forest in Alaska to logging. The others are his efforts to revive two potentially destructive mining projects — one near Alaska’s Bristol Bay, the other near the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Minnesota.
In all three cases, Mr. Trump has breathed new life into bad ideas thought to be dead and buried or getting there. Together they demonstrate again how Mr. Trump, when faced with a choice between commerce and conservation, reflexively sides with the former, even when the economic case for conservation is strong. . . .

Free Live Adult Chat Room No Registration Nothing Taboo 24/7 Step Up Onto New Global "Free Speech Box"

     Monday, 25 February 2013, LAS VEGAS - The Ninth Amendment this week fulfills another promise to our log's loyal readers and our growing national security establishment clandestine audience as well as surprising random internet surfers with the world's first known post of the paradigm-breaking cyber-addition of our optional anonymous FREE ADULT LIVE CHAT 24/7 ultimate social media feature included directly in the Ninth Amendment Log. This revolutionary "always on" enabler of we believe for example uncensored global conversation by readers among sites worldwide to discuss individual perspectives on events with persons globally while right at the home dining table has never before been introduced by any news source.
Think of it as London's Hyde Park Speakers Corner on steroids.
     While some social media sites may limit a reader to say a mere five hundred friends it is the expectation of the Ninth Amendment's editorial board that its readers may now know no such artificial cutoff. While some readers may prefer merely to follow a discussion taking place in the "Free Speech Box" others of the more outspoken and extroverted type may find themselves eager to engage conversations which may count their live participants in the billions. Participation may be limited only to those with whom they share a common language, say English, which at least should enable communication with with others numbering in the hundreds of millions. Imagine the networking opportunities once one's friends reach for example the one billion mark!
     Of course part of the excitement of a social experiment of this magnitude is to learn how matters may actually work themselves out as one moves from the theoretical construct to the practical world of reality. For example how long might a reader have to queue up to participate if the insights shared by others mean one must wait their turn while several hundred million other people first must have their turn to speak one at a time.
     Will this overburden the technology which enables this marvel? Will participants be late for work while a significant percentage of the world's population gets to speak individually in order first? Will people interrupt if they face an urgent circumstance such as their lifespan coming to an end or the need to visit the restroom and fear losing their place in line? These are the types of questions which will have to wait to be answered and may even include the need for further government study grants.
     On the other hand what a rich source of  material if the United States government could maintain a file on every person in the world who ever went on the record in the free speech box. In the final analysis it actually may be "chat" that truly ushers in the dawn of a new age, perhaps as when Ken Kesey introduced the "Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" to an unsuspecting country through the simple use of an old school bus with a destination sign reading "Further".
       This Ninth Amendment tribute to its currently better known fellow free speech First Amendment in the Bill of Rights is even now fully available below with a simple click of the mouse on the word "chat". Readers may sit down to enjoy their Saturday morning breakfast food and most likely chemicals as they acquaint themselves with the facts of the day while also sharing the precious moments of modern life.with their spouse, children, pets and all loved ones. As reported here nearly a year ago after being one of the first to introduce free music of readers' choosing through "Grooveshark" right beside the day's post, and with simple guidance on keeping up with top "newspapers of record", the Ninth Amendment has enabled Americans now to better take responsibility for keeping themselves informed and on track with plenty of new friends to count as their own. Almost anyone is assured of finding someone on the Earth who agrees with something they contribute.
      Many thanks again to our growing readership of those here by habit, recommendation, mistake or Government employment. All as always are welcome.here at the Ninth Amendment Log which seeks to fulfill all its readers' needs to live as responsible, informed citizens (or not as they please). From providing the latest truly noteworthy actual news, with its bureaus cutting-edge reports, to unmatched exclusive informed relentlessly incisive fearless commentary, to dead-on accurate first predictions such as its first call of Texas Idiot Governor Rick Perry's historic faster than the pull of gravity freefall from FOX-TV "news" frontrunner to mumbling incoherenet Republican Presidential debater whose last known public words were "Ah really stepped in it this time".
     The Ninth Amendment is pleased to welcome all on this continuing journey into the new era of the unknown as technology and its stewards continue to take us down ever more rapidly evolving paths of surprises whether it be another invention that we never knew we needed until we learned that we could not live without it, unless it broke and had to be returned or replaced, or if more than a few months old added to the "retired" storage shed of apparently worthless items as we waited in eager anticipation for the newer version to come out and continue the cycle, all the while wondering "will this ever end?" Indeed.
