""Joe Biden banned mining in 225,000 acres of Minnesota's Iron Range, and locked up development of taconite, copper, nickel, cobalt, platinum-group elements, and more," Stauber also said in the committee statement. "Unfortunately, this harm to our country and our future has become the norm, as this president’s goal is to put America last."

Policy expert Bedford agreed with the Republican lawmakers, claiming this move gives more power to China and other adversaries."

""The administration's decision to withdraw this mineral-rich area — blatantly targeting one of our country’s most promising mines — is short-sighted, foolish and completely unscientific," Westerman said. "Unfortunately, President Biden doesn't seem to mind if Minnesota mining communities and the entire American economy pay the price.""

This is an obvious gift to Beijing Biden's Chinese masters.  Now we have to but these materials from them.

Why does Bidet get to tell Minnesota what they can and can't do?  Flush Bidet!

The balloon was making sure there were no mining operations happening. Good job Beijing Biden.
