An industrial buildout on the southern tip of Texas is erasing the last traces of an ancient world that still hasn’t died.

"This society has been trying to get rid of #Mancias’ people for 500 years. It couldn’t kill them all, so it’s destroying the evidence that they ever existed. That’s what Mancias sees as 100-ton bulldozers flatten the hills his #ancestors camped on, churn up their bones, and casually crush them into rubble, removing these last traces of their world.
" 'They almost annihilated us, and that #genocide continues,' Mancias said. 'To destroy the #environment you have to destroy the people who protect it.'
"He faces a formidable foe here at the last frontier for oil and gas on the Gulf Coast of Texas. Every other major inlet from the Mississippi River west through Port Arthur, Houston, Freeport, Lavaca Bay, and Corpus Christi is already ringed with #refineries, #ChemicalPlants, and terminals.
"But at the farthest tip of #Texas, the #RioGrande meets the Gulf between #WildlifeRefuges, a #StatePark, and a majestic #wilderness that still shelters endangered and little-known #wildlife.
"This is where Houston-based developer #NextDecade has begun constructing an $18 billion #MegaProject, which it called the 'largest greenfield energy project [financed] in U.S. history' when it announced in 2023 that it had secured investors to proceed.
"Named #RioGrandeLNG, the 750-acre facility will eventually pipe in up to 27 million tons per year of gas from #fracked wells in the #PermianBasin, supercool it to negative 260 degrees fahrenheit, and load it onto #TankerShips for sale overseas as liquefied natural gas (#LNG). It’s part of an explosion of lookalike projects that quickly made the United States the world’s top exporter of liquefied gas and drove soaring gas production at home.
"On an adjacent tract, another project called Texas LNG intends to build atop a site called #GarciaPasture—an ancient village ground where people lived seasonally for almost 800 years. The World Monument Fund calls it 'one of America’s premier #archaeological sites.' That project has its permits and awaits investor commitments before breaking ground.
"And about 5 miles away, #SpaceX continues to expand its #Starbase complex, where it manufactures and launches the most powerful #rockets in the world (which occasionally explode and fall to earth).
"Mancias fears this is just the beginning.
" 'All of this will be gone,' he said, driving his pickup truck down a highway through the marshes. 'They’re going to destroy all of this.' "

From 2022: Defending #NativeAmerican #SacredSites From #ElonMusk and #SpaceX
By Frank Hopper

"The #CarrizoComecrudo Tribe of Texas is suing to protect the tribe’s #AncestralLand.
"From an observation deck near the top of his South Texas rocket launch tower, Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX and self-proclaimed proponent of free speech, looks northward to South Padre Island, home to many ancient village sites of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas.
"In a video published last May to the YouTube channel Everyday Astronaut, Musk is seen looking over the tower’s railing and down at a 'farm' of huge rocket fuel storage tanks filled with liquid oxygen and methane gas. These will service weekly launches of SpaceX’s massive #SuperHeavy and #Starship orbital launch vehicles in 2023.
"Musk surveys the land from the gleaming metal launch tower, looking down on an #ecosystem filled with #EndangeredSpecies, such as #Ocelots and Kemp’s #RidleySeaTurtles. To the east, he sees the waves of the Gulf of Mexico crashing on #BocaChicaBeach, the site of the Carrizo Comecrudo creation story. To the northwest just a few miles away is #GarciaPasture, an #ArchaeologicalSite containing the remains of a #PreColumbian village nearly a thousand years old.
"Musk wears a black T-shirt with 'Occupy Mars' emblazoned across the front, as if his #corporate conquest and #colonization of space were some sort of righteous protest. As he stands atop his multibillion-dollar mountain of #ToxicMachinery, he cannot see the Indigenous people below who have come to offer tobacco to their ancestors.
"Musk doesn’t see them because, according to the Carrizo Comecrudo, he is blind to the concerns of the #IndigenousPeople who fought and died for the land he now occupies."

US Top News and Analysis | Avoid the SpaceX IPO? 'The juice has been squeezed from this orange'
Avoid the SpaceX IPO? 'The juice has been squeezed from this orange'
Published Mon, Apr 6 2026 3:32 PM EDT
SpaceX has laid the groundwork to list its shares on a public exchange, but investors should think twice before scooping up the stock, Requisite Capital Management managing partner Bryn Talkington told CNBC's "Halftime Report" on Monday. That's because investors are unlikely to see robust returns from the aerospace manufacturer stock following its likely massive initial public offering, given that much of its value already appears to be "priced in," according to Talkington. "This will IPO as one of the largest companies in the world, and so I think the juice has been squeezed from this orange," Talkington said.
SpaceX is aiming to debut in the public market around June at a potential valuation of $1.75 trillion, Bloomberg first reported, citing people familiar with the matter. The company confidentially filed for an IPO last week, but it has until at least 15 days before its road show to release a public filing. The Elon Musk-owned company is looking to raise as much as $75 billion, which would make its IPO roughly three times larger than the biggest public listing in the U.S. to date. Consider that Alibaba raised about $22 billion in its 2014 debut. But, an IPO of that size would likely mean smaller returns for retail investors, according to Talkington. "So much is priced in with a company that's doing $16 billion in revenue at a $2 trillion market cap," she said. "It just makes no sense to me." Stephen Weiss, chief investment officer and managing partner of Short Hills Capital Partners, also called into question the value proposition of SpaceX's IPO due to the company's size. "How much return can you generate off a $2 trillion company," Weiss told CNBC. "It's got to go to $3 trillion… it's ridiculous for one of the largest companies in the world on that revenue base."
