Radioactive Uranium Trucks -- Slick Politicians and Easy-Chair Journalists Endanger Public

Article by Brenda Norrell, Censored News, April 17, 2025

The copy and paste journalists, and the slick politicians doing self-promotion selfies on social media, don't want the public to know the facts.

This is Pinyon Plain uranium mine in the Grand Canyon, poisoning the air, land and water in the homeland of the Havasupai. The uranium mine is spewing out radioactive dust for the world travelers who love this place, poisoning traditional medicine plants, and endangering the aquifer for future generations.

Navajo President Buu Nygren secretly did a deal with the owners, Energy Fuels, to bring radioactive uranium ore trucks through the Navajo Nation, without the Navajo Nation Council's knowledge.

This agreement for radioactive trucks, shown here, is an extreme danger for everyone on the transport route -- Havasupai, Paiute, Dine', Hopi, Ute, and the residents of Flagstaff.

Remote Native communities have no way to deal with radioactive spills.

The radioactive trucks are covered only with tarps and dump their loads in the White Mesa Ute community in southeastern Utah.

The spin factory of social media, and the copy-and-paste reporters who rarely leave their easy chairs, continue to put everyone in danger

The Navajo President's secret deal with Energy Fuels endangers everyone in the region, including Laguna and Acoma Pueblos in New Mexico already suffering from the cancer and death from uranium mining at Jackpile uranium mine.

The new agreement between the Navajo government and Energy Fuels includes a provision for Energy Fuels to transport radioactive uranium waste through the eastern part of the Navajo Nation, if Energy Fuels begins mining uranium near the Dine' Sacred Mountain of Mount Taylor in New Mexico.
