By Terry Wanzek: Jamestown, North Dakota USAAs I drove my combine across my fields in North Dakota this past fall, I didn’t think much about Iowa’s Republican presidential caucus, scheduled for Monday, January 15. Sometimes I just looked up at the blue sky and saw the white contrail of a jet. The sight always reminds me that I literally live in “flyover country.”I grow soybeans and corn.

How does a sale of 300 acres of farmland in the middle of nowhere suddenly become a geopolitical flash point between the world’s two superpowers? The answer is when such land is located just 20 minutes down the road from Grand Forks Air Force Base, which is home to some of the most sensitive U.S. drone technology.

Attorney’s representing a Texas rancher are preparing to test the “pottery barn rule” – you break it you buy it – before the U.S. Supreme Court. Richie DeVillier lives on land east of Houston that has been in his family since the 1920s. For all that time the land hasn’t flooded. That is, until the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) began rebuilding Highway 10. The state raised the road and added a 3-foot-high watertight concrete wall along the middle—basically a dam.
