#NavajoNation Dishonors Legacy of #KleeBenally: Agrees to #Uranium Transport Through #Navajo Communities

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, February 3, 2025

"The Navajo Nation dishonored the memory and legacy of Klee Benally by agreeing to allow radioactive uranium trucks to travel through the Navajo Nation. It was what Klee spent the last years of his life fighting against.

"The deadly trucks from the #EnergyFuels #PinyonPlain uranium mine in the #GrandCanyon will pass through the #Havasupai's homeland, and then past the homes of #Paiute, #Dine' and #Hopi in Arizona before reaching the dumping ground: The Energy Fuels #UraniumMill in the #WhiteMesaUte Community in Southern #Utah.

"Klee is being honored with a #NuclearFreeFutures Award in New York in March.

"Nuclear Free Futures said, in announcing the award, 'Klee Benally was a Navajo activist and musician and member of the Navajo #Tódichiinii Clan and the #Nakai #Diné Clan. In addition to a
musical career with his siblings in the band #Blackfire,

"'Klee was a passionate campaigner and filmmaker exposing the #colonialist legacy of uranium mines and working for the cleanup of the more than 500 abandoned uranium mines that continue to contaminate the Navajo Nation. A month before his death on December 30, 2023, Klee published his book, '#NoSpiritualSurrender: #IndigenousAnarchy in Defense of the Sacred.'

"The award will be accepted by his mother Berta Benally.

"Klee, co-founder of #HaulNo!, warned of the danger to the water and rivers from the uranium mining in the Grand Canyon, and the planned deadly transport of radioactive ore, before he passed in
December 2023: 'There is possible radioactive contamination to land, water, and air from the #CanyonMine, White
Mesa Mill, and transport of uranium would impact northern Arizona, southeast Utah, the #ColoradoRiver, #MoenkopiWash, the #SanJuanRiver, and the lands and cultural resources of the #Havasupai, Hopi, Navajo, Ute, and Paiute peoples.'"

Oh my God.

I thought this had to be misreported but multiple outlets confirm Israelis have stormed a military base to protest the arrest of soldiers accused of gang-raping a Palestinian detainee at Sde Teiman Prison.😳

one silver lining about 2024 is that i do not have to talk about #techbros as being cryptofascist (aka hidden in plain sight).

Thiel, Andreessen, Horowitz, Musk, Ellison, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Gates and the whole bloat of them are not hiding anymore their sociopathic politics.

techbros is now, officially a shortcut for the technoptimist, transhumanist, eugenicist, fascist kakistocracy of Silicon Valley grifters

I keep seeing headlines like this: "Kamala Harris’ entrance shakes up the race, but she has real liabilities." Really? Is she a convicted felon? Did she incite a mob to storm the capital? Did she, too, sleep with a porn star and then lie about it? Like, what liabilities match those of her opponent?

Down in the headline weeds on the WashPost's home page is this spit-out-your-coffee howler:

"Trump’s age and health under renewed scrutiny"

As if Trump's age and health have EVER been under serious scrutiny from the Post or anyone else in Big Journalism.

This story is unintended self-mockery.

"I was a courtroom prosecutor. In those roles I took on perpetrators of all kinds – predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, and cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain. So hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump's type."

“the leading Spanish fan Twitter/X account dedicated to Taylor Swift held a poll asking followers if they had come down sick after going to one of the singer's concerts in Madrid. A full 35% of people who took part - the equivalent of 3,780 - responded positively.”

Taylor Swift spreads Covid: thousand of fans fall ill after Madrid and Paris concerts

Taylor Swift certainly does not leave her fans indifferent. A week after the US singer performed in Madrid as part of her Eras Tour, the 130,000 people who saw her at the two concerts held in the Spanish capital still remember an unforgettable night. What many don't know is that they left the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium with more than just souvenirs and outrageously-priced merchandising. Many also picked up an unexpected souvenir: a dose of Covid-19. Over the past few days, thousands of fans have commented on social media that they fell ill after attending the concerts on May 29th and 30th. A situation that is not surprising, considering the large crowd packed into the stadium, all of them singing their favourite tunes at the top of their lungs. And despite the fact that the severity of the pandemic situation is now much reduced, the virus itself persists. In recent weeks, the incidence of this illness in Spain has shown an upward trend, amid springtime weather that causes symptoms to often become confused with those of colds and allergies. There are all kinds of cases, but the truth is that thousands of fans were affected. Some even had an antigen test to confirm that it was Covid. covid contagiado por taylor swift se vende test de antígenos por 5000 euros pic.twitter.com/7gkUJLlHND — n (@chinesatellite) June 3, 2024 Translation: "Covid, infected by Taylor Swift, I'll sell my antigen test for 5000 euros!" - @chinesatellite yo teniendo covid desde el eras tour y haciendo como si nada pensando que era una congestion pic.twitter.com/niiUMe31qu — franci 🤍 ✧ (🎥) || ⸆⸉ (saw taylor swift) (@frxncidc) June 4, 2024 "I've had Covid since the Eras tour and acting like it was nothing, thinking it was congestion." - @frxncidc taylor swift es tan mona ♥️ incluyó de sorpresa en el eras tour madrid la nueva variante del covid🕊️🙏♥️ — whatever (@martina___n) June 4, 2024 "Taylor Swift is so cute - she included the new Covid variant as a surprise in the Eras Tour Madrid🕊️🙏♥️" - @martina___n me fui al concierto de madrid (29/05) cuando estaba perfectamente bien y regresé a valencia el día siguiente. durante el finde, noté que me sentí diferente porque estorbaba fuertemente, y tuve mareos. ayer estaba tosiendo sin parar. hoy hice la prueba y salió positivo. 🥴 — ori 🧚🏻 (@orianaznar) June 4, 2024 "I went to the Madrid concert (05/29) when I was perfectly fine and returned to Valencia the next day. During the weekend, I noticed that I felt different because I was feeling very uncomfortable, and felt dizzy. Yesterday I was coughing non-stop. I took the test today and it came back positive. 🥴" - @orianaznar To give an idea, the leading Spanish fan Twitter/X account dedicated to Taylor Swift held a poll asking followers if they had come down sick after going to one of the singer's concerts in Madrid. A full 35% of people who took part - the equivalent of 3,780 - responded positively. In the comments, descriptions of their conditions. "Cough, sore throat, body discomfort and I can hardly speak," says one. "I went on Wednesday and Thursday. On Saturday my neck hurt, and I spent the night from Sunday to Monday with a fever of 39C, one of the worst nights of my life," reveals another. "Covid and one of the worst blows," says a third. ¿Fuiste al #MadridTStheErasTour y te llevaste de recuerdo covid, algún virus o algún resfriado? Abro encuestita: — Taylor Swift España (@taylorswiftes_) June 3, 2024 "Did you go to the #MadridTStheErasTour and did you take Covid, a virus or a cold home with you as a souvenir? Here's a survey:"- @taylorswiftes_ Same story, three weeks earlier in Paris The reality is that this situation is not surprising. As well as the large crowds that are inevitable at any concert, we must add the domestic and international travel of many fans. The fact that Taylor Swift skipped Catalonia on her tour meant that many Catalan fans made the journey to the Spanish capital to enjoy the singer, and there are thousands of people from all over the world who have been forced to come to Europe to see it live. For this reason, the increase in the incidence of Covid since the concert has not only occurred in Madrid. On June 9th and 10th, Paris hosted two concerts by Taylor Swift - three weeks before the Madrid shows - and a similar situation was experienced there, in which thousands of French fans reported feeling unwell, with symptoms compatible with Covid.
