America's Parks for Sale: Trump's Wealth Fund Targets National Treasures

On February 3, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order to create a sovereign wealth fund, aiming to make it one of the world's largest.With the US already $36 trillion in debt, experts question the funding source for the trillions needed.Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated they will "monetize the asset side of the U.S. balance sheet" for Americans.Interior Secretary Doug Burgum identified federal lands and natural resources as assets potentially worth $200 trillion.Current natural resource leasing generated less than $17 billion in 2024, suggesting land sales may be necessary to raise sufficient funds.Republicans have previously advocated for selling federal lands, with the party platform supporting sales for housing development.Critics argue that public land sell-offs would harm local economies, access to nature, and democratic values.Without proper safeguards, the SWF could potentially enrich Trump and allies rather than the American public.Alternative SWF models exist, such as those in Norway and New Mexico, which provide stable funding for local communities.A better approach would maintain public ownership while delivering fair compensation to state and local governments.

Bernie Sanders Charges Ahead As Democrats Stall Out

Bernie Sanders launched a tour in red states like Iowa and Nebraska to rally opposition to Donald Trump’s agenda, drawing massive crowds—thousands in Omaha and overflow audiences in Iowa City.Unlike the Democratic Party’s muted response to Trump’s election, Sanders is actively challenging the administration’s plutocratic policies, focusing on billionaire influence and federal deregulation.In Iowa City, Sanders spoke to packed venues, delivering back-to-back speeches to accommodate attendees, a first in his political career, highlighting his enduring appeal.He criticized Trump’s inner circle, including billionaires Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg, who attended the inauguration, and warned of their control over federal agencies.Sanders galvanized the crowd with historical references—suffrage, slavery, independence—urging grassroots action to counter Trump’s planned $1 trillion tax cuts for the rich and cuts to programs like Medicaid.Attendees expressed frustration with Democratic leaders like Hakeem Jeffries, calling their opposition to Trump weak or nonexistent, while praising Sanders for providing direction.Sanders highlighted the slim Republican House majority (three seats), suggesting constituent pressure could sway vulnerable GOP members to block Trump’s reconciliation bill.Early signs show GOP walkbacks—like Trump’s false claim Medicaid won’t be cut—after outrage over federal grant pauses disrupted services, proving grassroots impact.The crowd, mostly liberal, cheered Sanders’ defense of reproductive rights and jeered Trump’s USAID cuts and Zelensky attacks, though some noted a shift in his base—younger Trump supporters absent.Sanders ended with Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, framing the fight as a timeless struggle against billionaire rule, inspiring attendees like Audrey to re-engage and Erin to find hope in solidarity.
