Texas and Oklahoma have always understood this issue.
Obama Era BLM Bureaucraps were clearly off the rails. I hope most of the vermin who did this initially are gone bye bye. Out of DC and power.

Several families that owned ranches from Vernon through Burkburnett towards Waurika were affected by the Obama BLM land grab. Judge Franklin Delano ruled on this in the 1920’s and there should have never been another thing said.
To: Texas Fossil
It helped that Texas Gov Abbott and the Texas Sec of state both said “ over my dead body” last year when the BLM started rumbling about seizing that land.

Yes. I’m very proud of both of them.
And it helps that Trump is POTUS.
Obozo’s circus is ended. Hopefully for good.

all land held by the government is held illegally except that land which is necessary for gov to conduct business, forts and ports

"2 miles (3.2 kilometers)" Why does the Amarillo Globe News find it necessary to convert miles into kilometers for its Texas readers?
I suppose they're conforming to the globalist, Eurocentric, New York Times stylebook.
Sigh...

And in the summer when the Red River is nothing more than strip of mud a few feet wide, BLM will proclaim that the river doesn’t exist and grab the land.

It’s the south vegetation line that counts- but I’m assuming you were using sarcasm.

no sarcasm.
Mark my words, some putz in the BLM will attempt to do exactly what I said in my earlier post.

I was on the Red River once.
It was covered in ice and we were racing each other along its meandering course on Snowmobiles.
North Dakota’s Red River.
He took the inside lane in the first turn which pushed him to the outside in the next. I jumped to the inside for the pass at full throttle only to slide out and watch him get an inside line on me. We traded positions on virtually every turn nearly an hour.
Great Fun.

Good news, thanks for posting.
To: Texas Fossil
Yep, I think you're accurate in describing that OK and TX have not had any problems understanding how the border between the States is defined and the naturally meandering riverbed between them.
And a thank you, to President Thomas Jefferson for the Louisiana Purchase treaty that contains this purely functional legal boundary with terms that even BHO couldn't successfully twist into saying something other than the original intent.
To: txnativegop; rmichaelj
More likely the EPA will want to get involved.
