I am an environmentalist. I think this plant is more important than a dirty lithium mine.

I thought you were talking about the press secretary (Buckwheat) until I read the article.

So did I.

That sounds r****t. I am often accused of being r****t. Nothing could be further from the t***h. What I am is an environmentalist. I think that some obscure plant that nobody has heard of should be able to hold up a $ multi million dollar mining project.

I would rather poor African workers be exploited by their Chinese over lords to mine lithium than this endangered wonderful plant be threatened. So it takes a few more decades to switch over to electric cars and save us all from rising oceans. I am willing to pay that price. It is just who I am.

What I want to see is if the Biden Administration cares about saving Tiehm's buckwheat as much as I do. I bet they do not. I bet they will sacrifice this amazing, rare plant on the altar of G****l W*****g. That would be an environmental crime.

If a plant gets in the way just t***splant some where else.

I grow buckwheat in my garden. Buckwheat is buckwheat, but to stop a mine in the US of A Tiehm's Buckwheat is as good as a snail darter minnow, or what ever else the Left wants to use. That this stops the Left's prize project I think is great.
