Oh, the irony!

Sorry, Forest Service.

You meant USFS then

Sorry, Forest Service.

USFS as opposed to State Forest Service? There are both.

Is it what the people who elected them want though?

"I wonder if anyone pointed out to them that their support of the "State Transfer" effort would eliminate recreational shooting on over 400 million acres where it is currently allowed in the west?"

I feel like this bit was probably overlooked and I can't imagine any Republicans would really support that bit.

I’m flying back from Michigan whitetail season and for what it’s worth my uncle was under the impression the DOI is one of the departments possibly being cut and he seemed excited about it and maybe semi supportive about disposing public lands. The other local folks around just went along with his conversation. He grew up hunting public land, he still enjoys hunting public land with us in Oregon, he complaints about lack of private land access now vs then.

For some of these folks they are so occupied with throwing grenades into the system they aren’t connecting all the dots, and it can be challenging to get them to.

I am afraid your uncle is just one of very many members of the tribe that have such contradictions.

Willie said it first and best.
"He's a walking contradiction partly truth and partly fiction"
