Just spending money we do not have. Not to mention buying votes. We have to inform our kids and grand kids they will be paying this back and the carrying costs on this debt.

WOW, so now MAN is responsible for EROSION?

Would someone please tell Jao Bai Din that EROSION is a NATURAL PHENOMENON and has been occurring on Earth LONG BEFORE MAN?

Is the GRAND CANYON'S EROSION MAN'S FAULT? I THINK NOT!

To be fair, Biden is right again on this one, and he can’t really be wrong here. Climate change or no climate change, it’s always a good idea to move Native Americans around to places where they won’t be so bothersome and where they can be contained. Seems to work out well for everyone so far.

It is amazing that the Native Americans survived this long with government help. Just ask them how helpful the Federal government has been. They will tell you.

“The Biden administration will pay $75 in relocation costs”

Must be missing some zeros. Otherwise, doesn’t sound all that bad.

Kinda like giving them some nice colorful beads and a smallpox blanket. Later the Left will call this a successful operation and want the power to do this to any American by force for their own good.

No, but they will be used to dilute republican areas with democratic votes. Bought and paid for by you and me.

They need to be moved above the tsunami line for when the Cascadia or Alaska faults rupture. I’m sure people already live there, but that’s what eminent domain is for.

Losing landmass to erosion is a natural process that no amount of spending will prevent. You may hold it back for years, decades or even centuries, but nature will eventually win out.
