Trump’s border wall will destroy @NatButterflies in Texas, which is home to at least 200 species of butterfly, and serves as critical habitat for the migration of the threatened Monarch butterfly and endangered species including the ocelot and jaguarundi.https://interc.pt/2QyCRE7

Even if they use eminent domain laws, they would have to pay the butterfly non profit for their land/building. They cant relocate?

Google the "quick take" eminent domain. The land is SEIZED without negotiation, adjudication or compensation. That's in the article, if you bother to read it. So, NO, we will not be compensated for decades, perhaps.

the real reason for your tweets come out, donations. You need to blame the criminals, not those trying to protect us, enforce the law, and maintain or sovereignty. My wife and I will be stopping our support to you!

Hi, Scott, if you were truly a supporter you would not cease support when the very project your support has funded is being destroyed. Nice try, though. We're a nonprofit. We run on donations. Review all our tweets & you will see 99% of them have NOTHING to do with soliciting $

No. Google QUICK TAKE eminent domain.The feds passed a law that allows them to SEIZE PRIVATE PROPERTY and do with it as they please without negotiation, adjudication or compensation. They take and destroy, we wait up to two decades to be compensated for our loss.

and you can take it to the courts, all the way to the supreme court since it is a constitutional matter. (Sorry meant 5th Ammendment in last tweet) you could then set case law and protect others of these abuses.

No, quick take IS the law and it's been upheld. And the feds have waived the 28 laws that might protect us/land/water/air/species/rights/etc. There is no stopping this now.
