EP 22 | District Of Conservation: David Bernhardt Nominated to Run Interior Department

In Episode 22 of District of Conservation, I discussed a lot of news—starting with how pro-gun interests in Virginia will benefit from the fallout of political chaos befalling Governor Ralph Northam (D-VA) and Lt. Government Justin Fairfax. I also discussed appearing in both Field & Stream and Outdoor Life for the first time. I wrote about SHOT Show 2019 happenings there.

I also discussed the selection of Acting Interior Secretary David Bernhardt, previously Deputy Interior Secretary, to succeed former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, who bowed out in December. I also discussed the news that a Lee County, VA school district is countersuing Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, a huge anti-gunner, for preventing the school district from implementing this firearms policy.
