What stops the federal government from merely deeding private lands to foreign governments “because they can”? Actually, nothing stops the government from doing anything, certainly not the Kelo Decision.
Without a doubt, the Supreme Court’s Kelo Decision is one of the most potentially destructive weapons a tyrant like Barack Obama has at his disposal.
We’ve heard that Dirty Harry Reid, Nevada’s real life Senator Geary, was possibly preparing to steal some of the Bundy ranch land to give to a Chinese company to run another fake “green scam.”
This begs the question: Why couldn’t the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) merely re-deed the land in question and cite the Kelo Decision as its legal grounds?
The Kelo Decision was a 2005 case in which the Supreme Court overturned the honest use of the eminent domain doctrine, which had previously allowed confiscation of private land only for purposes of direct government use, and allowed for such confiscations to be used to transfer ownership of land from one private citizen to another. The 5 to 4 vote saw Justice Anthony Kennedy join the majority and help shred the Constitution.
Now nine years later, the lawless Barack Obama stands in a position to use Kelo as a way to act like he is our Sovereign and arbitrarily strip Cliven Bundy or anyone else of property he wants to use in his next scheme.

This is NOT the same thing as “Eminent Domain.”
THIS IS A LAND GRAB for Obama to pay back some of the debt to the Chinese…then he’ll just keep spending.

The is a HUGE difference between Eminent Domain and “LAND GRABBING.”
I’ll give you a good example.
Right after DFW Airport was built (Dallas/Ft. Worth)…there were so many, many people moving here from all over the country. Hwy 75 from McKinney Texas to downtown Dallas became a damn traffic jam every single day! There were horrible wrecks. It became an industrial freeway for huge 18-Wheelers, etc.
I worked for the City of Dallas from 1990-1992 in the Department of Planning and Development.
It was my job to send out letters to various people that lived right on Hwy 75 which became North Central Expressway AFTER eminent domain was declared. We bought the houses and NO not at market price IF they were to sell their homes..
On a personal level, of course, I think it was wrong. However, On a business level, there WERE far too may accidents due to horrible population growth over night!
