🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth.

Honestly, Ben Affleck actually knowing AI and the landscape caught me off guard, but as a writer, makes sense.

An update on the Colorado billionaire trying to privatize a public river that’s also a gold medal fishing area and one of the most beautiful rivers in the West, the lower Blue.
>billionaire owner of 2000-acre ranch Blue Valley Acres, Paul Tudor Jones II, pushes hard for a land swap with the Bureau of Land Management. The public loses some nice fishing areas, billionaire owner benefits. He says he’ll build better access points to make the deal worthwhile, but begins retracting that part of the offer December 2025 saying there’s too many people on “his” river already.
>Jones runs a rainbow trout stocking and artificial feeding program with 20 lb rainbows that displace native trout. The stretch of the river is known to locals as “Jurassic Park.” These fed fish attract parasites and diseases due to artificial densities from the feeding program.
>Jones reports that what he sees as his private stretch of river has ecological problems related to too many members of the public having access to it.
>He begins a major campaign with decision makers in federal, state, and local government to implement a permit system to keep people off “his” river
>state agency fisheries biologists come to investigate his claims only to find that his private stocking and feeding program is what’s causing parasites, disease, mortality not public access to the river.
Even if you don’t live in that part of Colorado, there’s someone trying to privatize public land and water by you. The initial land swap was successful because people weren’t paying attention. Keep your eyes open for this type of unabashed greed.
Help me spread the word about something big happening in the Colorado public land world, especially you fly fishermen. The Lower Blue River is one of the best places to float the river on planet earth. If you’ve never done it, please make it a point to get out there, I don’t care that I’m blowing up my favorite spot, I like it when people get out and enjoy the resource. The scenery is gorgeous and the bite is out of this world. It’ll be the best day of fishing in your life and it’s a public river (for now).
There’s an eccentric billionaire that owns the 25k acre Blue Valley Ranch (Paul Tudor Jones), who has been painstakingly stocking his private stretch of the the Lower Blue river with what are called ‘triploid’ trout, genetically bred to not reproduce and expend all their energy getting huge. This area’s actually nicknamed “Jurassic park” by locals because the trout there are absolute monsters. He’s also put millions of dollars worth of boulders and manmade eddies to grow big, fighting trout (honestly, respect). Right before he comes into town, his ranch managers stop artificially feeding the resident trout so they’re hungry and he has a great bite.
In recent years, he asked the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to do a land swap of nice public areas with crappy private areas. They agreed (another story for another time). Jones said that even though what we got was crappier, he’d make improvements to the put-in and take-out locations to float the river, so public access would improve.
Well, fast forward to today, he’s reneging on his part of the deal, and saying actually there’s too many people on ‘his’ river. We are negatively impacting his private fishery! He set up a cardboard cut out NGO (which he pays for) that’s campaigning to put a day permit system in place to aggressively keep you off this public river. And of course, no access improvements promised in the land swaps have been made.
This is about to blow up the conservation/public land/access world and I’m just asking that you make yourself aware of it, and when we get the chance, and I’ll let you know, make public comment on how losing access and privatizing this marvelous river for Mr. Jones’ private use is pure evil.
You might say, “I don’t live in Colorado so what does it matter.” This is a test case, there’s a lot of people watching what happens here who’d like to make their own private river just like Jones. It’s beginning on the Lower Blue but next stop might be your favorite river. If you want to do more, Trout Unlimited is gearing up to possibly protect public access by any means necessary, they’re a very reliable partner. A gift of membership to yourself or your family will put you on the front lines of the Lower Blue access fight.
