President Joe has designated a nearly 1-million-acre national monument near Grand Canyon National Park. It permanently bans new uranium mining in an area that holds spiritual and cultural significance to more than a dozen tribes in the region.

    I know it is technically correct, but it is weird hearing him referred to as President Joe.

    We are on first name basis with old Joey.

    This would mean more if he wasn’t running for re election while also increasing the us based oil drilling.

    Big win for Arizona tribes though
