thanks for having me here. you are vacationing this week and instead of going home, you are with us helping the local tourism industry? it is great to be with you always, yeah. talk about the potential land grab issue. you found out from an internal memo with the department of interior, initially leaked, missing some pages, you found the missing pages. what has you concerned about the federal government trying to get its hands on land out west? well, we have not received all the documents yet. there are more promised to us that yet have not been sent. and it shows that even though this government owns one out of every three acres throughout the country, they want to control more and buy more even if congress does not okay it and the documents were how to go around congress to implement this kind of plan. what it means for the west is the stopping of economy, more jobs would be lost.
