Biden's nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management is in trouble in the Senate, as she should be. Tracy Stone-Manning is / was a member of Earth First!, a designated environmental -domestic terrorist group. She participated in tree spiking (driving large nails into trees in order to injure or kill loggers using chainsaws), among other things.

That the Biden administration could even consider nominating a domestic terrorist to such a post is beyond the pale. Yet, the Left keeps trying to tell us the radical Right is the danger when the radical Left is trying to take national power.
This is an absolutely clear example of why anyone who's sane would vote against every Democrat on the 2022 ticket. No one should accept or want our country run in any way, shape, or form by people who would accept a domestic terrorist in public office for any position.

Earth First! and terrorism:
EarthFirst! activists envisioned a revolutionary movement to set aside multi-million acre ecological preserves. They used disruptive direct action as a stalling tactic in an attempt to prevent possible environmental destruction while Earth First! lawsuits attempted to secure long-term victories. Tactics included road blockades, activists locking themselves to heavy equipment, tree-sitting, and sabotage of machinery. More militant members of Earth First! split into another, more violent Earth Liberation Front.Third Edition Direct Action ManualIn 2017, Earth First! released the third edition of their "Direct Action Manual" described as “The DAM is almost 300 pages of diagrams, descriptions of techniques and a comprehensive overview of the role direct action plays in resistance—from planning an action, doing a soft blockade, putting up a treesit or executing a lockdown; to…

https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/testimony/the-threat-of-eco-terrorismDisaffected environmentalists, in 1980, formed a radical group called "Earth First!" and engaged in a series of protests and civil disobedience events. In 1984, however, members introduced "tree spiking" (insertion of metal or ceramic spikes in trees in an effort to damage saws) as a tactic to thwart logging. In 1992, the ELF was founded in Brighton, England, by Earth First! members who refused to abandon criminal acts as a tactic when others wished to mainstream Earth First!. In 1993, the ELF was listed for the first time along with the ALF in a communique declaring solidarity in actions between the two groups. This unity continues today with a crossover of leadership and membership. It is not uncommon for the ALF and the ELF to post joint declarations of responsibility for criminal actions on their web-sites. In 1994, founders of the San Francisco branch of Earth First! published in The Earth First! Journal a recommendation that Earth First! mainstream itself in the United States, leaving criminal acts other than unlawful protests to the ELF.
