I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment: Selfishness: I’m taking care of me and mine, the rest of you can pound sand; Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else

Our public lands are our common ground. When Sen. Mike Lee pushed to sell them off to billionaire developers, Veterans, ranchers, anglers, and everyday Americans stood together and stopped him. Because this land isn’t for sale—it’s part of who we are. And we’re not done
