Everything else aside... What the fuck is so urgent about cutting down forests that you need a emergency order to green-light it?

In 200 years people will ask in disbelief why such old forests were logged down.

It was nice to have a planet while it lasted, I guess.

I love that this map still has the Gulf of Mexico.

I hate that this will be done to our national forests. They're a natural treasure and should be protected for so many reasons.

"Emergency orders" designed to protect this country in case we're attacked are being used by presidents to sidestep the constitutional as it regards separation of powers. It's about time this shit came to an end also.

Once again, we find out most of the past presidents just obeyed decorum and norms... Did no one consider that a bad-faith president would just say, "uh...'EMERGENCY!' " then he's allowed to bypass Congress and just do whatever the fuck he wants!?

Remember: a can of expanding foam can disable most any vehicle when sprayed in the right places.

Fuck, some of that will be last remaining old growth, forever lost

Not happy with destroying our society anymore. Now they have to physically destroy our country.

This is what happens when you allow conservatives to have control.

I'd ask Americans to make better decisions going forward, but we all know that isn't happening.

RIP.

It's an emergency!! We need lumber for... Things. Quick!

What’s the emergency? Climate change isn’t catastrophic enough yet?

do you remember when in minecraft you chopped down a forest for wood and didn't replant it? remember how you had to go to triple the distance to find another one, wasting even more time?

“I think that I now understand what he is up to. He is plotting to become a Power. He Has a Mind of Metal and Wheels; and He Does Not Care For Growing Things.”

“Come, my friends. The Ents are going to war. It is likely that we go to our doom.”

This motherfucker wants to clear cut the boundary waters. All these special areas destroyed because they're not a beach side golf course or some tacky casino.

since Canadian lumber has a tariff making it so expensive now they will chop down the US forests for the value of lumber is high

Turning the US into Isengard. Nice

This is the exact same tactic this regime will use on the 20th of April to declare martial law. I’m really curious how long it took the Germans in the late 1930’s to call it what it was.

This is a coup d’etat. Lots of people will die. The regime - even if DJT dies or gets shot - will go on. There won’t be any more fair elections. I hope these protests go from 5 million to 10 million on Saturday, because only a mass movement can stop this.

Oh it looks like the area I hunt is in there. Damnit it was getting nice finally from when it was planted decades ago. Second generation trees are getting good sized.

Guaranteed way to speed up climate change

And oil exploration, and real estate development, and golf courses, and casinos, and...

What do they claim the emergency is?
