Patriots need to be on their guard concerning treaties. Thomas Jefferson, undoubtedly based on his experience as vice president and president of the Senate, had clarified that treaties must be reasonably based on powers which the states have delegated to the feds expressly via the Constitution.
In giving to the President and Senate a power to make treaties, the Constitution meant only to authorize them to carry into effect, by way of treaty, any powers they might constitutionally exercise. Thomas Jefferson: The Anas, 1793.
Surely the President and Senate cannot do by treaty what the whole government is interdicted from doing in any way. Thomas Jefferson: Parliamentary Manual, 1812 .
A more important example concerning limits on treaty powers comes from the Supreme Court. In fact, the Court reflected on Jeffersons words, clarifying that Congress cannot use its power to negotiate treaties as a backdoor way to expand its constitutionally-limited powers.
"2. Insofar as Art. 2(11) of the Uniform Code of Military Justice provides for the military trial of civilian dependents accompanying the armed forces in foreign countries, it cannot be sustained as legislation which is "necessary and proper" to carry out obligations of the United States under international agreements made with those countries, since no agreement with a foreign nation can confer on Congress or any other branch of the Government power which is free from the restraints of the Constitution [emphasis added] [emphasis added]. Reid v. Covert, 1956.
Regarding who controls what with respect to navigable rivers like the Columbia River, heres Supreme Court clarification that the lands underlying navigable waters within the states belong to the states.
"Besides, it was settled long ago by this court, upon a consideration of the relative rights and powers of the Federal and state governments under the Constitution, that lands underlying navigable waters within the several states belong to the respective states in virtue of their sovereignty, Scott v. Lattig, 1913.

“there will be no justification for any one of us to use any land because of ecosystem damage we cause”
Its about more than Idaho, folks. It’s about water and whether or not the U.N. will be able to take control of nature and our sovereign lands.
