Obama-Appointed Federal Judge Stifles Trump Admin In
Opening Land For Coal Mining - Ignores Elephant In The Room, by Suzanne Hamner,
4/23/19.
It is particularly disturbing to read
news articles where an elephant in the room is grossly ignored when covering
the particulars of the story. Too many American citizens are illiterate
of the Constitution and ignorant of its tenets. The media, particularly
the alternative media, should be pointing out these elephants while covering
the main story in order to demonstrate to the people the extent of the
violations against the people the various levels of government commit.
The Daily Caller reported: A federal judge in Montana
delayed a Trump administration attempt to open up more federal lands to coal
mining Friday, The New York Times reported.
Exactly what "federal lands"
does the federal government "own" in Montana? According to
Article I, Section 8, paragraph 16, of the Constitution of the united States of
America, "To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over
such district (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular
States, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of government of the
united States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the
consent of the legislature of the State in which the same shall be, for the
erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dock-yards, and other needful
buildings; ...." Other than land for these purposes, the
Constitution prohibits the federal government from owning any land it can open
to coal mining, create parks, or hold for any purpose. Yet, the focus is
on the continuing friction between the Obama administration and its appointed
federal judges and the Trump administration.
