Terri Cunningham Swanson Recall – the latest. Also! Introducing our favorite new guerilla journalists in Nebraska – Seeing Red

The election to recall extremist Plattsmouth school board member Terri Cunningham Swanson is in full swing, with the ballots due back by January 9. We have written a bit about Ms Cunningham Swanson, including the time she doxxed the private citizen who filed the recall petition against her, her role as one of the few extremists in Nebraska trying to dictate what your child can learn or read about, and of course her love for white supremacist swingers Moms for Liberty. Now here come our new favorite guerilla journalists at Nebraska Meadowlark with their deep dive into the recall and into Terri Cunningham Swanson herself. We highly recommend you read all three articles:

The Short Short Version
The Genesis of Terri Cunningham Swanson
Nobody Expects the Literary Inquisition

Terri Cunningham Swanson, Sue Greenwald, and Kirk Penner – amongst their weaponry are such diverse elements as fear, strife, ruthless dumbassery, an almost fanatical devotion to Trump and nice red uniforms

As the regular folks in Plattsmouth who do not approve of white supremacists banning books work toward Terri’s removal from the school board through democratic process, Terri’s support group on Facebook is a grim mixture of threats to drown people with millstones, election fraud conspiracies, and Kanye videos. Just last week Ms Cunningham Swanson was a guest on Scott Voorhees’s show on KFAB where she spent a good amount of time naming and complaining about a few of the people behind the recall effort and laughing about being called a Nazi. The next day, she turned around and complained that KFAB did a “hit piece” on her. Scott Voorhees did ask her on the show if any other school board members have publicly supported her and she said no, so maybe that was the hit piece? Her own son has spoken out about her racism and abuse toward him and his siblings. Terri is supported by a small, twisted group who approve of her anti-LGBTQ and pro-white supremacy ideals (including Senator Robert Clements) and the rest of Nebraska just wants Terri and her fascist agenda gone from the school board. She often complains about people who “don’t have any skin in the game” helping with the recall effort, but we ALL have “skin in the game” when one extremist is trying to ban books. This affects every single one of us whether we live in Plattsmouth or not. If we allow fascism the smallest toehold, even if it is banning just one book, we are leaving an opening for banning queer people, propping up racism, and taking our country backward by decades in the hands of religious extremists (not that 2023 is much of a beacon year for the good old U.S. of A.). We hope the resignation of Brittany Holtmeyer and the removal of Terri Cunningham Swanson will send a strong message to the extremists in Nebraska. Your fuckery will not be abided here.

NioCorp to start work on its minerals mine in southeast Nebraska

NioCorp to start work on its minerals mine in southeast Nebraska

NioCorp announced Monday that it plans to start work on its critical minerals mine in southeast Nebraska.

The project, which the company is calling its mine portal project, will involve building a main entrance to the Elk Creek underground mine and will serve as the primary access point for personnel, equipment, and materials for the underground mining operations. It also will include excavating bedrock, drilling and blasting to establish the twin mine ramps, on-site access road construction, and construction of on-site supporting infrastructure.

The project, which will cost nearly $45 million, is set to get underway before the end of the month. It marks the first time Colorado-based NioCorp will actually start any significant work on the main mine, from which the company hopes to extract niobium, scandium, titanium and other minerals.

“Given the size of this excavation work, the portal project really marks the beginning of a major pre-construction activity at the Elk Creek Project site and is an important step toward preparing for underground development,” Scott Honan, the company’s president and chief operating officer, said in a release.

Mark A. Smith, Niocorp’s chairman and CEO, called the project, “a significant milestone.”

Niocorp has spent more than 15 years trying to develop the mine on land in Johnson County, about 65 miles southeast of Lincoln.

The company still needs to raise a significant amount of money to make the $1.2 billion mine a reality, though. In December, NioCorp said it had raised about $360 million, or a little more than a quarter of the total cost. It is still waiting for approval of a $780 million debt financing application from the Export-Import Bank of the United States.
