Back when the Hammond Family (Oregon ranch owners) were being targeted by the Obama Administration in 2014, I became keen on the deeper corruption that was going on with America’s land. It surfaced at the time that Hillary Clinton had made arrangements with Russia and China for them to acquire some of our uranium enriched native land. Pieces of the puzzle started to come together for me except for one, I wanted to know how we interrupt the corruption and get our land back. Of course, I called Bob Barney. It was a very important conversation back then! I called Bob Barney again today and we revisited that conversation and the truths surrounding it in light of this recent news story. I want to share some of what he said:
Bob cut right to the chase and reminded me that the key to keeping what God has blessed us with is to understand and acknowledge what America’s true identity is and that this is the key to opening up the door to God’s blessings. He continued saying, “Remember, it does not matter who or what entity is taking anything from us and that it is about the knowledge of the TRUTH of who we are to God and because of God. There is an important scripture, Hosea 4:6 that says, “My people are destroyed from a lack of knowledge…”. Americans think our history doesn’t go back very far and that America is great because of our forefathers. This sounds nice but it is not correct. The truth of our identity goes back 3500 years! America is great because God had a friend greater than Moses…ABRAHAM! God promised Abraham unconditionally that his heirs would be the greatest nation; the whole Bible is actually really about Abraham.
The Jewish people by the way, are one people, one group, however, people in America have been identified as factionalized and that in this “experiment”, we are told we are a melting pot, a new people…this is not true; adopting this theory is literally dissing God. We ALL are in the group that has received a very special identity because of this promise of a blessing by God made to Abraham. If people understood this blessing, that it stands no matter what type of government we have, then we collectively would see things as God intended for us to see them; in turn, we would continue to receive these blessings. To believe God is to know (and scripture points this out time and time again, especially through His prophet, Isaiah) that God does not change! Our identity is key…unfortunately we are very ignorant…the truth about our identity is that we are Israel, and we are very blessed!”

The Biden administration announced Tuesday that it has designated nearly 1 million acres in Arizona outside the Grand Canyon as a monument, a move that could further America’s reliance on Russia for sourcing uranium, according to the White House.
The monument designation will permanently prohibit new mining claims in the covered 917,618 acres, parts of which are known for having rich deposits of uranium, an essential material for generating nuclear energy, according to E&E News. The Biden administration is justifying the designation by pointing to the land’s cultural significance to local Native American tribes in accordance with its wider push for “environmental justice,” according to the White House.
President Joe Biden is set to formally announce the monument designation during a Tuesday afternoon speech at Arizona’s Historic Red Butte Airfield, according to the White House.
The Senate voted overwhelmingly in July to approve an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would direct the Department of Energy (DOE) to prioritize actions to boost domestic production of two types of uranium to fuel U.S. nuclear reactors. Northern Arizona, through which the Grand Canyon runs, is the most active uranium-producing region of the state, which itself is one of the leading uranium-producing states in the U.S., according to the Uranium Producers of America and World Population Review.
Though the amendment did not mention Russia by name in its text, the bill was authored with Russia in mind, as the U.S. pays Russia about $1 billion annually to source uranium, Republican Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso said in remarks from the Senate floor on the day the bill passed. The Biden administration has repeatedly stated that it aims to enhance American energy security while also decarbonizing the domestic power sector.
Biden “talks about ‘net zero’ carbon emission, but is proposing to cut off an area almost the size of Delaware from providing uranium to fuel our nuclear plants, which are the largest source of carbon-free electricity,” Dan Kish, senior fellow for the Institute for Energy Research, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “He talks about the evils of Russia and then hands them the keys to our energy security, just like his talk about solar panels has handed the keys to China.”
Some experts suggest that the designation may also threaten existing mining claims in the designated monument area if operators cannot sufficiently prove that they can extract minerals from claimed tracts at a profit, according to E&E News. Such a development would contradict the White House’s position that existing mining claims predating a 2012 moratorium will remain in place.
“It’s frankly very unlikely that any existing claims would be valid,” John Leshy, a former Clinton administration official in the Department of the Interior and current emeritus professor at the University of California College of the Law in San Francisco, said in advance of the designation, according to E&E News. “But that’s a fact question, and you’d have to go claim by claim.”
Scott Melbye, president of the Uranium Producers of America, said that it is “disingenuous” for the Biden administration to actively pursue a “green energy economy” while also inhibiting uranium production in the U.S. ahead of the designation’s announcement, according to E&E News.
