Rhea Data is trying to turn 3,700 acres of Idaho public BLM land by Blacks Creek into a mega data center & gas plant. Cattle graze it, birds use desert reservoir, fish depend on the inflows, & wildlife crosses through. That's lost habitat, more emissions, & more pressure on water we don't have.

Trump announced on Truth Social on Friday that he was banning CNN, MSNOW and Politico from all access to the White House due to what he called unfavorable coverage, and threatened that more such prohibitions of media outlets could follow.
