Well so much for state’s rights. I know this crap has got to go somewhere but not like this.

Why do we need so much weapons-grade uranium anyway? We’ve already got enough nuclear-grade weapons to destroy life on Earth permanently. We (and a few other countries) can, and probably will, turn this planet into a barren hunk of radioactive rock hurling through space.

Trump Administration Secretly Shipped Radioactive Plutonium to Nevada Despite State's Opposition - Newsweek

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has disclosed that it shipped roughly half a ton of weapons-grade radioactive plutonium from South Carolina to Nevada months ago, without the state's knowledge or consent and in spite of their vehement opposition to becoming a nuclear waste dumping ground.

In a federal court filing on Wednesday, the Trump administration disclosed that the National Nuclear Security Administration transferred the substance before November 2018 after a U.S. District Court in South Carolina ordered it be removed from the state.

"Because sufficient time has now elapsed after conclusion of this campaign, DOE may now publicly state that it has completed all shipment of plutonium (approximately ½ metric ton) to Nevada," Bruce Diamond, general counsel for the DOE's National Nuclear Security Administration, wrote in the filing, adding that the information was previously classified.

He added: “Although the precise date that this occurred cannot be revealed for reasons of operational security, it can be stated that this was done before November 2018, prior to the initiation of the litigation.

Following the disclosure today, Nevada officials expressed their anger at the Trump administration and vowed to seek accountability. "I am beyond outraged by this completely unacceptable deception from the U.S. Department of Energy," Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak (D) said in a statement. "The department led the State of Nevada to believe that they were engaging in good-faith negotiations with us regarding a potential shipment of weapons-grade plutonium, only to reveal that those negotiations were a sham all along. They lied to the State of Nevada, misled a federal court and jeopardized the safety of Nevada's families and environment."

Sisolak added: "My administration is working with our federal delegation, and we will use the full force of every legal tool available to fight back against the federal government's reckless disregard for the safety of our state."

“Because sufficient time has now elapsed after conclusion of this campaign...”

In other words “It’s done whether you like it or not so eat shit and die.”
