Yosemite Land Deal Sparks Outcry | Kansas City News

A shocking leak claims the Trump administration is secretly negotiating to trade a quarter-mile stretch of Yosemite National Park for private land owned by Nevada’s Kingsbarn Realty Capital — a move that would pave the way for a new road to park landmarks. Sources say talks began last spring, but California lawmakers and environmental groups are furious, calling it a betrayal of public trust. Senator Padilla and Rep. Huffman vow to stop it, while the Sierra Club labels it greed disguised as access. The Department of the Interior denies the story outright, calling it anonymous gossip, and says any deal must follow full legal review. Ironically, a similar road proposal was blocked by federal courts a decade ago — a precedent that could now be tested again.
