I want to make one thing crystal clear: I love James Franklin. He was everything I wanted in a HC (from someone who has been a PSUer since 1985). I want him to have great success in whatever he does. Excellent representative of the university. Love him!!! But it’s time

The vast majority of the online left right now is saying of Charlie Kirk: “I’m not saying he deserved it, but (wink wink).” What happened to these people? How did we get here?

To get an idea of how much the $NAK community has influence as a shareholder bloc, how many shares are we holding?

Also, to clarify things, the veto is not at all worried about the effects on the broader watershed. The disturbance they used as the basis for the veto was site specific. There was a secondary reason cited about tailings in the event of catastrophic failure, but USACE

The Crux of the EPA veto is that the pebble mine site would disturb 99 miles of streams. That’s roughly 0.08% of the Bristol bay watershed. Grok: To estimate the total miles of streams in the Bristol Bay watershed based on the given data, we can use a simple extrapolation

Just went down another rabbit hole reading the EPA veto, and comparing to the EIS. I think I’ve been a little off in representing what EPA is stating. What they’re stating is definitely in the EIS. But what it is is that the pebble site has a bunch of streams that run through

Adding on to #2 above, it actually says the biggest wildlife impact will be to caribou because they make the access road and there will be activity. So literally the worst wildlife impact is from building a road. Opposition to this project is utterly insane.

My main couple of takeaways are that 1) USACE and EPA are basically ignoring their own environmental study, which is wild. 2) this thing has absolutely nothing to do with Bristol bay. The body of water it could conceivably impact is Iliamna Lake, but the study says that isn’t

To those that are nerds and like to understand the actual engineering and environmental impact, here is the Environmental Impact Study. It’s supposed to be the basis for USACE permitting. https://t.co/3b4pADm6Rd

The ONLY way to stop it is for the Trump White House to ACT URGENTLY, TOP PRIORITY, to apply MASSIVE diplomatic, trade, aid & security muscle, every tool in the hardball diplomacy toolkit - up to and including our participation in NATO - to KNOCK THIS LAW THE F OUT.

While pebble was vetoed under section 404c, that they’re opening up CWA at all is positive ambient news.

There’s this weird segment of Trump supporters that literally thinks he descended from heaven. This is psychosis. It’s one thing to think he does a good job, better than the other side, funny, whatever. This is a whole different thing.

Lots of Israel bots and paid shills out here to get Tucker these days. The red flag is that of all things, his opinions of not even Israel, but of Israel’s outsized role in American foreign policy and domestic politics, is what makes them go in full attack mode. No other issue
This is the biggest lie ever. And it’s one that is so easy to disprove. Do an analysis of his X account and see how much he talks about Gaza.

I was reliably informed that I was expelled from the right because I thought trump was getting dog walked into a foreign conflict on false pretenses. Oh wait, you mean it didn’t work? Of course Israel and the neocons were lying. Duh.
Well this explains why Trump was so crabby this morning — US intel says that we didn’t destroy the key components of Iran’s nuclear program, we didn’t even collapse the underground buildings. The new estimate is that the program has only been set back by a few months. Horrifying.
