Opinion: How will Joe Biden deal with Saudi Arabia now he s in the White House
Opinion: How will Joe Biden deal with Saudi Arabia now he s in the White House by Anthony Harwood There is a video of Joe Biden, banging on the table and almost spitting venom as he calls out a “repulsive and repugnant regime”. The young senator tears into the Republican government for the spineless way it deals with a hated foreign state. “I’m ashamed of this country that puts out a policy like this that says nothing. It says: ‘Continue the same, we put no timetable on it. We make no specific demand.’ I’m ashamed there’s no moral backbone to this policy”.

Under the agreement, Save the Redwoods League, based in San Francisco, paid $24.7 million to buy a conservation easement over the sweeping Mailliard Ranch, in southern Mendocino County near the Sonoma County line.

A sprawling redwood forest in southern Mendocino County has received permanent protection under a $24.7 million deal between a Bay Area environmental group and the property’s longtime owners, San Francisco’s socially and politically prominent Mailliard family.
Save the Redwoods League bought three conservation easements across the 14,838-acre Mailliard Ranch in early February. The agreement will permanently safeguard the land in Anderson Valley, and its complement of the world’s tallest tree species, from subdivision and development, the environmental group said. A conservation easement is a legal agreement that limits land uses to protect conservation values of the land.
