Court Records Show Eco-Terrorist Letter Received by Forest Service Was Sent by Biden's Bureau of Land Management Nominee
Western Journal ^ | June 12, 2021 | Jack Davis

A past link to an activity described as eco-terrorism should disqualify President Joe Biden’s nominee to head the Bureau of Land Management, according to a Republican senator.

Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming responded critically to nominee Tracy Stone-Manning’s role in sending a threatening letter on behalf of an environmentalist group that committed tree spiking crimes in 1989.

“Tracy Stone-Manning collaborated with eco-terrorists,” Barrasso said, according to the Daily Caller. “She worked with extreme environmental activists who spiked trees, threatening the lives and livelihoods of loggers.”

“While she was given immunity from prosecution to testify against her companions in court, her actions were disgraceful,” he said.

The Washington Post described tree spiking as an “‘eco-terrorist’ tactic,” noting a specific case in 1987 when a mill worker’s electric saw came in contact with a tree spike, causing the saw to break and half of the blade to be launched into his face — tearing through his safety helmet, creating a gash from his eye to his chin and splitting his jaw in half.

“While the tree is still in the forest, the spike is driven in at an angle so the head is hidden in the bark. It can shatter a chain saw on impact, sending pieces of razor-sharp steel flying,” The Post reported.

Scores of serious injuries have been reported from logging industry workers whose saws came in contact with unknown spikes placed in trees.

Stone-Manning was given legal immunity in 1993 to testify against fellow environmental activist John Blount, according to the Daily Caller, which based its report on court records.

Pretty in your face wouldn’t you say? The question is which Democrats are willing to look past that.

Here is yet another golden moment that Republicans could use to embarrass, ridicule, and abuse Xiden and Democrats. Here in this article we see a brief statement that was made and really very few will hear about it. Republicans have no unity, no consistent message, and are easily distracted. The message should be clear and direct. Xiden and Democrats are eco-terrorists that want to kill hardworking American loggers. This comes at time when lumber prices are at all-time highs and increasing everything made from wood in America. Say it over and over again. Grab the nearest microphone and say it again. Say on the Senate floor. Tweet it. Send it in emails. Get on the local news and say. Get on the national news and say it. Democrats are terrorists. Here is proof that Xiden supports terrorism. He should be impeached. There needs to be one constant attack after another.

“While the tree is still in the forest, the spike is driven in at an angle so the head is hidden in the bark. It can shatter a chain saw on impact, sending pieces of razor-sharp steel flying,” The Post reported.

From what I remember of those days, trees now are now checked out with metal detectors to find any hidden spikes.

If found, a spiked tree is safely cut down and removed to prevent the danger to future loggers.

“terrorism”

Why the quotes in “eco-terrorist”?

Did “some BODY do SOME thing?”

It’s terrorism plain and simple.

>> Get on the local news and say. Get on the national news and say it. Democrats are terrorists. Here is proof that Xiden supports terrorism.

Same as it ever was:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Collazo
Oscar Collazo (January 20, 1914 – February 21, 1994) was one of two Puerto Rican militants of the Nationalist Party who on November 1, 1950, attempted to assassinate U.S. President Harry S. Truman in Washington, DC. He had been living in New York City after growing up in Puerto Rico.

Collazo was convicted and sentenced to death, but Truman commuted his sentence to life imprisonment. In 1979 Collazo’s sentence was commuted to time served by President Jimmy Carter. He was paroled and allowed to return to Puerto Rico.

On October 30, 1950, Torresola and Collazo learned that the Jayuya Uprising in Puerto Rico, led by the nationalist leader Blanca Canales, had failed. Torresola’s sister had been wounded and his brother Elio was arrested. Believing they had to do something for their cause, Collazo and Torresola decided to assassinate President Harry S. Truman, in order to bring world attention to the need for independence in Puerto Rico.[1][3]
