I see that as yet another attempt to loot our common infrastructure, owned by we the people, we the taxpayers, and give it up to private interests. Something especially grotesque is that I have heard that our 'honorable' senator, Dianne Feinstein's husband, Richard Blum, is the person or agency contracted to oversee this process. I wonder if you have any information on this topic, or possibly plans to interview anyone who may be able to shed some light on what I see as a conflict lof interest of Trumpian proportions at the very least, and crony capitalism/outright abuse of office and theft, as well as being a very bad Idea ,not at all in the public interest.l 2017-03-27T17:32:35Z
