Currently right now we are living in the second 15-year plan of agenda 21 the so-called agenda 2030 which according to un documents is the agenda to quote transform our work world for sustainable development now for the past 10 or so odd years this broad agenda from the United Nations has been trickling down
And getting implemented as concrete policies in countries around the whole world because what happens is that you have these different organizations these environmental groups and these different coalitions they all go back to their respective countries and in order to save the planet they take advantage of the unique political and the unique
Legal situation in their home countries to get agenda 2030 implemented at the local level and so for instance right here in America one of the biggest manifestations of this United Nations agenda 230 is the Biden administration’s Cory agenda 30×30 this is a plan by the US government to take 30% of America’s
Land completely out of production by the year 2030 this would mean that 30% of the land in this country will be placed into Federal conservation and it would essentially be idled there will be no grazing no farming no drilling no fishing no development basically just no human activity at all
And while the current aim is to take 30% of America’s Land by the year 2030 once that’s actually achieved The Next Step will be to take 50% of America’s Land by the year 2050 the 50×50 plan it’s sort of a rolling project with the ultimate goal being for the federal government to
Own the majority of the land in America and to make that land inaccessible to the people in order to of course save the planet now the US federal government is achieving agenda 30×30 in a myriad of different ways they use The Endangered Species Act they use the Waters of the
US act they have the president invoked the Antiquities act in order to establish national monuments they use federal money to convince private land owners to put conservation easement on their land and so while it’s technically still private land you’re not allowed to develop it and then besides all these
Different methods well there’s now a new approach that the federal government is taking in order to push this agenda through hidden behind even year of bureaucratic red tape the BLM which is the Bureau of Land Management they’re pushing through a backdoor rules change which would effectively sell out our
Public land to the highest bidder in order to achieve the goals of the 30×30 agenda essentially they are working to create a system wherein these extremely well-funded environmental groups will be able to come in and purchase what would be called conservation leases on otherwise public land and in so doing
These different environmental groups will be able to restrict all other uses on that so-called public land meaning that there will be no more recreation no more mining grazing fishing hunting or anything of that sort and so in order to make sense of how the federal government
Is going about this while I was down in Texas I took the opportunity to sit down and speak with Miss Simone Griffin she is the policy director over at an organization called the Blue Ribbon Coalition which aims to fight back against these different federal land grabs and she broke down for us exactly
What’s happening what it means for the common citizens of this country like you and I as well as what can actually be done about it and so take a super quick moment to smash those like And subscribe buttons and take a listen Simone thank you so much for joining us thanks for
Having me so you know this is the stop 30×30 Summit and we were talking you know last night and one of the things I realized after speaking with you was that it’s not just about taking the physical land right it’s sometimes about controlling what you can and cannot do
On land that the government doesn’t necessarily own but they they control so can you discuss um tell the audience about some of the attacks on grazing that public lands are facing yeah and we’re facing a lot of attacks so in the west there’s a lot of public lands
Whether it’s managed by the National Park Service for service BLM and through the tailor grazing act um grazing allotments have been issued on these public lands and so even though the the BLM for example the Bureau of Land Management they are mandated to manage these lands for multiple use and to
Allow these allotments and these grazing allotments they’re they’re private property I mean even though they don’t own the actual land they do own the allotment and they’ve purchased it so it is a private property right that they have two Grays on their allotments and what we’re seeing is these land agencies
They’re enacting policies and and management decisions that are greatly going to reduce and have reduced grazing and access on public lands for example Grand Staircase escalan National Monument was was designated over 20 years ago but we’ve seen the reductions through that management decision of cattle and sheep grazing over the years
Just right now actually they’re undergoing NEPA process to uh re-evaluate the management plan and essentially we’re going to see lots of proposals within this management plan that are going to reduce grazing and the allotments so they’re proposing to cut the area and and it’s 1.9 million Acres just this one National monument and
They’re proposing to cut the Acres available for grazing in half and the aums um basically the amount of cattle that’s allowed to be on each allotment they’re going to cut that in half so these ranchers that have been there for eight nine Generations it’s it’s their history it’s their family culture that’s
Just getting slashed from out out from underneath them and it’s hurting our economy it’s hurting education I mean it it’s such a ripple effect of how it affects these small communities and that’s just one plan and one National monument and we’re seeing more national monuments designated we’re seeing
Management plans all over the western United States that are are hurting these ranchers that have been doing it and have been the true stewards of the land for Generations now this story gets a lot deeper but we have to pay bills around here and so let me quickly
Introduce the sponsor of today’s episode by showing you this little piece of money or rather I should say that this is fake money being printed into Oblivion by those Geniuses over in Washington DC and so before they completely obliterate your life savings what I recommend you to do is to convert
That fake money into real money which is physical gold and silver and the best company to use is the sponsor of today’s episode American Hartford gold who also happens to be my own personal gold and silver bullion dealer they have thousands of other fstar ratings across
The country they have an A+ rating with a Better Business Bureau they ship quickly directly to your doorstep their product listings are awesome they’re stacked with great options of gold and silver bullion and coins and they have amazing customer service when you pick up the phone and call them you feel good
Knowing you support a company that supports the truth getting out into the wider American audience and so calling them up is a no- Grainer but best of all if you tell them that Roman sent you they will throw in up to $5,000 worth of free silver with your first purchase
It’s 866 242 2352 or you can simply text the word Roman ran Roman to 65532 of course all their details will be down in the description box below and now let’s head on back to the studio I mean you mentioned a few things but I I can also Imagine the investment you put
In assuming you have you have access to this public land let me ask you why are they doing this what’s the what’s the at the very least surface level reason that they’re taking away uh this land from the use so they want Wilderness they they want the lands to be designated as
Wilderness and even even though the land is always already protected by dozens of laws such as The Endangered Species Act and and the Water Act I mean there’s so many laws already protecting the land and then they create a National Monument to protect it even more so so they claim
Um but eventually they want it to be Wilderness and they don’t want any use they don’t want roads they don’t want access and so if they can start cutting down grazing and access in general then they can hopefully get it do ated by Congress to be Wilderness and then
Nobody will be able to touch it for forever and and that land will be permanently locked up and 30 by3 they say they want these lands protected they never Define how they want it protected because you could argue that 30% of lands and water are already protected through the various laws and executive
Orders and and regulations that we already have but they want to take it a step further they want it protected by Wilderness which is designated through Congress so so let me back up and try to tell you what I understand you you said because I’m sure a lot of people in
The audience who maybe live in cities they’re not necessarily you know dialed in with what’s happening in the rural Countryside so you have public lands that are owned by the federal government right or state government or is it only the federal government so there there is
State so for example in the county that I live in we only have 3% private land in the entire County um 91% is of that is or 91% of the county is federally owned and then about 6% 5 to 6% is state owned um so you do have some lands that
Are owned by the state but the majority is owned by the federal government okay so then let’s say you have a ranch so you obviously need your cattle to go grze somewhere to seeed the grass so you would buy an allotment and and an allotment is is sort of like saying it’s
It’s a permission slip for you to be able to graze in this particular area correct can one So when you buy that allotment that’s sort of your area like another farmer can’t also say well I also get this piece of land is that correct yes that is their property they
Own that allotment and and you can sell it you can exchange it I mean it is an actual right um and it’s an asset that you now own and so something that is happening when a president comes in and uses the Antiquities act to designate millions of acres of land as a National
Monument then these ranchers no longer have this private property to graze on so then they they buy these allotments like you said uh to to graze cattle on and what we’re seeing is special interest groups they’re coming in and they’re trying to buy these allotments up from the longtime ranchers because
Then once they buy the alotment they have no intentions of ever putting cattle on the allotment and then they want to have the allotments permanently retired to completely remove cattle from ever being on that piece of property ever again completely diminishing the history of the western United States and then once there’s no
Cattle once there’s no improvements fences and Roads then they can designate it as Wilderness so back to that earlier example so let’s say I’m a cattle rancher I I buy this alotment on the public land near near my near my Ranch so I can bring my herd over there to to
Grace the government then changes the rules is is it such that the allotment is no longer allowed to use the allotment or is it is it like a percentage uh thing like how does it that actually work in practice so it’s through different management plans um so
For example all public lands they have to have a resource management plan done um or the forest service they have a forest management plan and that’s the overarching plan that dictates how it’s going to be ran and IT addresses things such as mining such as um Recreation
Roads I mean there’s a lot of things that go into this huge plan that governs the land for like 20 30 years at times and so what they’ll do is they’ll create areas that they say are not permissible for grazing and even if your allotment
Falls in that area then it’s going to be removed and you will no longer be able to have your cattle go in that area and sometimes these areas Encompass an entire allotment and can the government legally do this I don’t believe so I I believe it’s unconstitutional I believe
There’s litigation that will need to happen if they truly try and do this um but instead of just completely closing it off their allotments how they’re doing it is they’re reducing a that they’re allowed to have so they’re reducing the number of cattle that they’re allowed to have they’re making
It difficult for the ranchers and the grazers to do any type of improvement projects so they’re putting all this red tape up to build fence or to get water to their cattle so there’s these roundabout ways that they’re frustrating the grazing operation rather than just because these ranchers they have the
Rights they they’re protected by the tailor grazing act that protects their allotments they can’t just come in and completely take it unless Congress does that and so there’s these roundabout ways that they’re using to really restrict their their cattle and grazing operations so that that’s how they do it
Because that was my question like can they actually would they reimburse the person but I guess they can’t take it but they just make it almost impossible POs to operate right they make it unprofitable for them and so we have seen a decline in in grazing operations and and they frustrate these longtime
Stewards of the land and they look to a new profession at some point and it’s really sad you know yesterday you told me that this is very similar to what’s happening in in the Netherlands much more than than what we discussed before and it sounds it sounds like it because
If you have a property next to a designated Nature Preserve then you’re then you’re you are actually screwed right yes yeah what’s the trend how what what percentage of public land is being right now reformatted and and is having this like red tape regulation put in or
Is it just a blanket would it be a blanket across the country so it’s not blanket but we are seeing a lot of areas Bureau of Land Management Forest Service uh we’re seeing a lot of these big planning processes come through with the current Administration and so they’re
Looking to get these management plans pushed through through within the next few years to restrict access and grazing and so for example in southern Utah there’s about there’s a plan for about 2 million Acres there’s another one I’m expecting to come out any day that’s another 2 million Acres um there’s one
In Southern Wyoming currently that’s 3.7 million Acres that they’re looking to cut grazing in half as well and so they come piece by piece depending on the area um but we’re seeing an onslaught of them right now that they’re trying trying to reduce these and that’s coming because of the administration it’s
Coming because these environmental groups are really pushing for it um the environmental groups they hate cattle they call ranchers welfare ranchers they think they’re stealing from the American people they think they’re the main cause of climate change uh there’s even in southern Utah there was a leader of one
Of these environmental groups that she was actually caught closing a private fence on an allotment um that was blocking cattle from getting to their water source killing cattle um and so there’s just this onslaught of ranchers are horrible and cows are hurting the environment when it’s the complete
Opposite but we are facing an onslaught right now from this push of updating management plans that dictate how they manage the lands and what is allowed with grazing that’s that’s actually amazing in a certain sense without any new pieces of legislation they’re just using rules and regulations to put to just put
Onerous restrictions on on farmers and ranchers as well but it’s not is it really just limited to ranchers because I can imagine like if you just live in that area and you want to use the land recreationally if they’re trying to rewi it will that will that also be affected
Yeah so like I said this plan affects lots of different things and then they’ll go into smaller planning after so this is the resource management plan in this example I’m talking about um but then after they’ll have travel management where they look at each additional roads but just in this
Resource Management plan that we’re seeing in Grand Staircase escalan National Monument there’s they’re proposing to restrict Gathering wood uh most of the locals Heat their homes through wood burning stoves so they’re not going to be able to gather wood you can’t go and camp and have a fire in
This 1.9 million Acres you can’t go out and do recreational target shooting um they’re closing um OHV areas that have been open for Generations that people recreate on and it it helps the local tourism economy that they have pushed on the locals because they’ve closed so many other
Industries um through the creation of the monument and so yeah it affects anybody who wants to use these lands whether you’re just camping whether you’re grazing whether you’re a mining claim owner they want to restrict everybody they don’t want people on the land anymore they want everybody off of it and it’s
Devastating well what’s crazy from what you’re saying is that okay they want this or they want that but they actually have a mechanism to to get that done and they’re using that mechanism what’s the time table here when are some of these uh effects going to go well uh
Regulations going to go into effect so the planning process for these management plans takes several years because they have to go through the National Environmental um Policy Act and and so we saw the first stage a year ago and we’re in the second stage for him for it to actually be implemented we’ll
Take probably another year or two but you never know they’re trying to Ram these things through so it could come up in about 6 months but there’s no legal timeline that’s given and that what that’s what makes NEPA so difficult is um it’s not standard on how long this
Process takes so I imagine though for a lot of them because they’re greatly restricting access for all users and they’re limiting multiple use there’ll be litigation uh with these management plans and so we’ll see what happens when you say NEPA what does that stand for so the National Environmental Policy Act
And it’s the law that requires agencies and and anything that’s going to affect the EV environment to go through this NEPA process where they have to analyze the effects on on the EOS system and on the environment of any potential project that’s going to happen with um federal
Agencies mhm okay so now that you outlin I think the problem very well is there any solution is let’s say somebody’s watching this they they’d like they live in the area they wake up to the fact that this is happening um what what can people do so they can engage through
NEPA so that’s one part of NEPA is it requires public comments so the public can submit comments saying if they support the proposals or not and so that’s one way to get engaged and and when you do that you create legal standing uh the environmental groups
Have been able to push their agenda to close off ranching and grazing and and multiple use because they litigate and so we need to submit public comments and be prepared to litigate decisions that restrict use uh the other things that we’re starting to see is legislation that that actually defunds these
Planning processes so it would require Congress to actually give approval for these agencies to move forward with spending money on the planning process which would help a lot as well so that would be like a proposed piece of legislation at the federal level yes and there is legislation proposed for
Certain of these planning processes but it would be great if all the planning processes had the same legislation that requires Congress to give them the okay to move forward during these now if you’d like to dig deeper into the subject to dig deeper into agenda 2030 its specific manifestations as well as
How it appears to really be putting Farmers around the whole world out of business well my team and I spend the better part of the last year researching traveling the globe and putting together a phenomenal research project in the form of a documentary called No Farmers no food here’s a
Trailer food prices are skyrocketing around the world and if you listen to world leaders they’ll tell you it’s due to climate change climate change is the biggest threat for the human beings and their solution might surprising there are 1900 edible insect species on the planet the European commission has
Officially declared mealworms to be food future of food the people in charge have determined that by switching our diets to crickets ants and mealworms we’ll be able to stop temperatures from rising lower the price of food and possibly to even save the planet it’s never about Innovation it’s always
About getting rid of farmers Agenda 21 was meant to be the agenda for the 21st century some of the goals sound nice ending hunger who could possibly be against ending hunger it requires total power from the state I think it’s a game a lot of this came about early ’70s
Clean Water Act Clean Air Act which were good things but it’s been abused from what the original tent is no maybe not a farm anymore no there also not a farm anymore so all these people shut down because of the government policies yeah I’m the sixth generation of farmer yeah I’m the fourth
Generation how many years have they own this PL land 40 years I think we’ Lost Generation they’re shutting down the small and middle-sized family run Farms we either own property or we are property I don’t think we can trust the government anymore because they want to land and our founding fathers understood
That the land would be distributed among the people so they could always control their government right now things have uh tripled as far as cost I think you’re going to see across the board higher food prices has anybody been held accountable for screwing up no as every
Communist hire into the last 100 years has understood if you control the food you control the people everything is falling apart there is a shortage of food we’re heading for a world food crisis as we hear all the time do you see any hope for this situation yeah we
Have to continue fighting for it no Farmers no food they will know it if You’ like to check out that awesome documentary in its glorious entirety you can find it over on Epic TV our no censorship video platform I’ll throw a link to it it’ll be right there at the
