Tracy Stone-Manning / PHOTO: University of Montana During a recent budgetary hearing, Sen. John Barrasso , R-Wyo., pressed Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland about Bureau of Land Management nominee Tracy Stone–Manning’s history with tree spiking and other forms of eco-terrorism. It’s hard to imagine a nominee more disqualified than Tracy Stone-Manning. She collaborated with eco-terrorists, she lied to the Senate, and she continues to harbor extremist views most Americans find reprehensible. https://t.co/IkthjdkeyN pic.twitter.com/26FX21FNKA — Sen. John Barrasso (@SenJohnBarrasso) July 22, 2021 An investigator called into question the nomination of Stone–Manning to lead the bureau after revealing she was the target of a federal probe concerning her radical activism.
In a letter to Barrasso, retired investigator Michael Merkley said that Stone–Manning was an active member of Earth First, which planted trees with spikes to make it dangerous or deadly to harvest the trees for lumber.
Secretary Haaland refused to take responsibility for the Biden nominee’s political positions, offering only vaguely worded replies to Barrasso’s questions.
“I have some short questions for you,” began Barrasso during the budget hearing. “If you could please respond briefly. The first has to do with tree spiking, where people drive metal spikes into trees. Can tree spiking kill or maim loggers and mill workers?”
“Senator, I imagine so,” Haaland equivocated. “I was not familiar with that practice until recently.”
When asked if the practice of tree-spiking was crime, Haaland was equally non-responsive, saying that she couldn’t say “for sure” if tree spiking was a crime, but she could “imagine” it would be dangerous.
Tree-spiking was implicated in a 1987 case, in which a 23-year-old mill worker was maimed, according to the Washington Post .

When pressed if individuals “who plan or otherwise are involved in tree-spiking incidents and threaten physical safety of federal officials” should be hired by the Department of the Interior, Haaland simply claimed that decision was above her pay grade.
“Senator, I believe you’re referring to the nominee, Tracy Stone–Manning,” said Haaland. “I also recognize that she was nominated by President Biden because he felt she could do the job and that she was qualified.”Barrasso then laid out Stone–Manning’s […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
