The statement is not a verifiable factual claim but rather a characterization ("radical idea") and a report of someone's ongoing intentions. Without the original context of Lee's specific proposal and exact words, it cannot be confirmed as a factual statement that can be objectively verified as true or false.

The statement attributes to Sen. Mike Lee a claim about his own proposal to sell public lands, but there is no verifiable record of Lee proposing to sell off treasured public lands; his advocacy has focused on transferring federal land management to states, not outright sales. Additionally, the date (2026-05-02) is in the future relative to known information, making the claim unverifiable.
