The Monument Announcement, Tesla Tunnels’ Expansion, and Our Dream Airport

Some long awaited news finally came down the federal pipeline to Nevada: Avi Kwa Ame, the sacred land to Indigenous communities, has officially been declared a national monument. On Tuesday, Biden protected over 500,000 acres of land in Clark County. Co-host Vogue Robinson and producers Sonja Cho Swanson and Layla Muhammad recap the efforts from multiple groups and discuss Governor Lombardo’s critical remarks. Also, Elon Musk’s Boring Company submits plans for an expanded Vegas Loop (hey, if it goes bust, we can always turn it into a giant Slip ‘N Slide). And last but not least, the team dreams up a very Vegas airport.
