And for anyone that doubts...

You know, he's tried to say that he's only going to sell off this small percentage of public lands.

That's kind of the central claim he's making.

Yeah, that's the way I was reading it, too, is the it looks like he's trying to set a floor, but no real ceiling.

So the floor is this must be sold off.

And then the ceiling is these other 240 million acres are to be evaluated.

At least that's what it looks like, which is setting the table for a sell off.

And I know we'll talk more about this later.

But we have processes in place for getting rid or the disposal of land already.

What are those?

What do you mean the disposal of land?

Well, that's kind of the legal term that they use.

It's really like transfer to a municipality or an organization for development and growth, things like that.

That's covered under FLPMA, which is the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976.

That thing is there.

It kind of...

it wrapped up a bunch of other older laws into one new one that set a multiple use mandate in place.

And part of that multiple use allows, or part of that act allows for the disposal of lands.

Like if a city needs to grow for some reason, like that's for example, that's how that ground in Las Vegas that they took Trump out of context on.

I'm not sure if you saw that, that ground got developed.
