White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki defended President Biden after he and his family were seen unmasked on federal land at the Lincoln Memorial shortly after signing a mask mandate.

President Trump announced the largest rollback of federal land protection in U.S. history, shrinking the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments in Utah.

Adam Curry discusses the standoff between rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Nevada.

A new media meme suggests the federal government should sell its vast land holdings in the Western U.S. to pay down the national deficit.

The phrase "law of the land" has become a recurring meme used by officials like Timmy Geithner and David Axelrod to shut down debate on topics like the Federal Reserve and abortion funding.
