Couple phrases I've learned in my life to never use- "I'll never do it"  and "It'll never happen". Seems like that last one was commonly used years ago when our newly elected president first declared his intentions to run for president. Not much really surprises me anymore.

Don't assume the states will own or manage any of the land. The lawyer on the meat eater podcast pointed out the legal procedure is that the land would go to the highest bidder.

That only applies if the last in transering to private ownership. It has to go on public auction, it cannot just be a private market sale. However if the land is being trasnfered from one government entity to another it is exempt from this rule, and can be transered without going to public auction.

According to the state of Utah, they filed this lawsuit based on “Decades of legal analysis”. Those decades started back in the 70s with the Sage Brush Rebellion Movement. This land grab is not new and will continue to happen - similar to how anti-hunting activists will never stop trying to end hunting. On the meat eater podcast it was stated that one reason this lawsuit was put out now is one of the Supreme Court justices mom helped start the sage brush rebellion movement. That’s also why the state of Utah did something out of the ordinary and went straight to the Supreme Court with this lawsuit.

Is that Gorsuch? I hadn't heard that before about his mom.

In general he is the most interesting of all the SC Judges, particularly his staunch positions on Tribal stuff which don't align with his party or even religious background. I think he is the justice to watch on this one...I could see him saying if it's not federal it needs to go back to the Tribes before it goes to the states
