I think I remember hearing that the guys on the ground had shot some cattle when they got on the fight and they couldn't drive them anywhere. When cattle get hot and don't want to go any further they will get on the fight and take your horse. I've had plenty of experience with that sort of thing with cattle.Quote:

Deb Jordan didn't say which video it was. I would like to listen to it. From what little I have heard about this guy, Dan Love, he has a big ego and is full of self importance, and not well liked around Nevada and Utah.
Here they said it looked like one of the bulls was shot from the helicopter, but he also had 4 other bullets in him
Quote:
Speaking with Breitbart.com on Wednesday, Bundy’s son, Ammon Bundy, said some of the cattle had been killed, accused the BLM of using helicopters during its roundup, and said agents used “inhumane” methods to gather the animals.“Well we know that two bulls were shot. And the one that they threw up in the mountain, Nickelcrick, he had a shot from above. He was shot by helicopter, but then he had four other shots to him as well. It looks like a fun shoot,” said the younger Bundy adding, “One hit him in the head and it ripped his whole face up. It was almost like a fun shoot.”

The continuing saga over cattle grazing in the west
http://freerangereport.com/index.php...s-west-part-1/
What to do about growing conflicts over range lands in the West: Part 1
October 10, 2016 editor Leave a comment
In January 2016, an armed militia group seized control of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in eastern Oregon.
Their goal: to protest federal control over western rangelands. It’s the latest episode in a long history of conflicts over the use of federal lands in the West.
Introduction
For a few short weeks during the spring of 2014, the intricacies of the U.S. federal grazing system garnered national attention. Major newspapers ran front-page stories. Television crews rushed to cover the issue live from the western range. Cable networks broadcast videos of cattle grazing on the evening news. If only for a moment, it seemed as though the entire nation was debating federal grazing policy as a tense standoff unfolded between the Bureau of Land Management and one Nevada rancher named Cliven Bundy.
Mr. Bundy, as the story went, was a scofflaw—a recalcitrant rancher who illegally grazed his cattle on federally owned lands for decades without paying the required federal grazing fees. An outspoken critic of the BLM, Bundy refused to acknowledge the federal agency’s authority over the land outside Bunkerville, Nevada. “As far as I’m concerned, the BLM don’t exist,” he said during a presentation a few months earlier. He had a vested right to graze cattle on the vast rangelands outside of Bunkerville, he said, just as his family had for generations.1
“When I decided that I was paying grazing fees for somebody to manage me out of business, I said, ‘Hell no,’” Bundy told the audience in a presentation in February 2014. “And what did I tell them? I no longer need your service as a manager over my ranch, and I’m not going to pay you for that no more.”
The BLM, however, disagreed, and in April 2014 the agency began rounding up hundreds of Bundy’s cattle from the federal rangeland. The agency claimed that Bundy owed nearly $1 million in unpaid grazing fees and fines. The cattle were not only trespassing; they were trampling sensitive habitat for the desert tortoise, a federally protected species. The BLM dispatched hundreds of federal agents along with contract cowboys and helicopters to descend upon the Nevada desert to capture, impound, and remove Bundy’s cattle from federal land.2 When Bundy refused to back down, the situation escalated quickly. Dozens of anti-government activists rallied in support of Bundy to stop the roundup and fight back against the BLM.
To many observers in the East, the roundup was seen as a clear example of federal overreach. Within a few days, a full-on range war was brewing in Bunkerville. Mobs of angry protesters and armed militiamen confronted BLM agents as they attempted to corral Bundy’s cattle. At one point, guns were drawn. One protestor, one of Bundy’s sons, was shot by federal agents with a stun gun.
The standoff captured the nation’s attention. Almost overnight, Bundy became an icon in conservative media outlets for standing up against an oppressive and powerful federal agency. In other media circles, Bundy was portrayed as a “welfare cowboy” who blatantly disregarded the law and grazed his cattle at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. And to others, he was simply a criminal with a rogue militia gang—a clear indication that the violence and lawlessness of the wild, wild West is still alive and well in the deserts of Nevada.
In the end, the BLM backed down, citing concerns over the safety of their employees and the public. The cattle were released back on to the federal rangeland, where they remain today. The range war in Bunkerville gradually defused, and Bundy emerged unscathed. But for Bundy, the limelight did not last for long. A few days later, he was recorded making offhand racist remarks to a journalist and was swiftly denounced by the media. Almost as quickly as it began, the grazing debate—along with Bundy himself—faded from the headlines.
The Rest of the Story
The conflict between Cliven Bundy and the BLM transformed federal grazing policy into a salient political issue in the minds of many Americans, if only for a brief time. Bundy’s story, however, is far more complicated than it was portrayed on national television. The narrative that emerged in the media implied that the conflict was straightforward: A rancher refused to pay his grazing fees and, as a result, was nearly evicted from the land.
But in fact, the standoff on the Bundy ranch was the product of a longstanding confrontation between ranchers and environmental groups over the nature and security of federal grazing rights in the United States. That debate is embedded within the unique and complex history of U.S. grazing policy. It’s a story that illustrates one of the central challenges facing grazing policy today: how to resolve conflicting demands on the federal rangeland in an era of new and competing environmental values.
Consider the more nuanced version of Bundy’s dispute: For generations, Bundy’s family grazed cattle on the vast rangelands of the western United States. Like many ranchers in the West, Bundy had a federal grazing permit, issued by the BLM, which authorized him to graze a certain number of cattle on the 160,000-acre Bunkerville Allotment in southeastern Nevada. The federal grazing system requires that grazing permittees must own certain private properties that are legally recognized by the federal government as qualifying for federal grazing privileges.3 In this case, Bundy’s right to graze cattle on federal land was dependent upon his ownership of a 160-acre parcel located in Bunkerville, Nevada.4
In effect, his grazing permit was attached to this particular “base property.” Along with the ranch, Bundy also secured groundwater rights, which together with the base property enabled him to secure and maintain grazing privileges to the Bunkerville Allotment. The value of Bundy’s property was enhanced by and dependent upon the public grazing privileges it provided to the nearby allotment.
For years, Bundy grazed his cattle on the federal grazing allotment and paid the required grazing fees—which typically amounted to approximately $1.35 per animal unit month (AUM).5
But in 1993 the federal government made an adjustment to Bundy’s grazing permit. Under pressure from environmental groups, the agency significantly reduced the number of cattle that Bundy was authorized to graze on the allotment in an effort to protect desert tortoises, a species that had recently been declared as threatened by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This modification had a significant effect on Bundy’s cattle operation as well as the value of his base property. Because Bundy’s ranch came with federal grazing privileges, reductions to his grazing permit could cause a corresponding reduction in his base property value. And with just 160 acres of deeded private land—nowhere near the amount necessary to sustain a cattle herd in the arid West—reductions such as this could threaten Bundy’s future livelihood as a cattle rancher.6
Bundy refused to accept the BLM’s modified grazing permit and continued grazing his cattle on the Bunkerville Allotment. He also refused to pay the grazing fees and trespass fines levied against him. In 1994, the BLM formally revoked his grazing privileges for “knowingly and willfully grazing livestock without an authorized permit,” setting in motion Bundy’s decades-long battle with the BLM.7
After several court orders to remove the cattle and ban Bundy from grazing on public lands—in addition to nearly $1 million in grazing fees and fines owed by Bundy—the conflict finally reached a boiling point in April 2014 when the federal government began to roundup the trespassing cattle.
Bundy’s story is not unique. Ranchers across the West increasingly face similar challenges to their traditional grazing use of the federal rangeland. This has contributed in part to a general decline in grazing on federal rangelands and a perception among many ranchers that their future is threatened by the emergence of environmental regulations.8
Today, the amount of grazing authorized on BLM land is half of what it was in 1954.9 Bundy’s case is simply the most salient and well-documented dispute in recent years.
http://i2.wp.com/www.perc.org/sites/...size=860%2C484
This more nuanced story illustrates the central challenge explored in this essay: In the United States, grazing conflicts such as Bundy’s are born out of a federal grazing system that encourages conflict, not negotiation. Competing user groups often have no way of coming together to resolve conflicting demands except through top-down political or judicial means. Environmentalists, for their part, frequently file legal challenges over land management, forcing federal land agencies to restrict grazing rights and declare more areas off limits to grazing and other historic land uses. Environmental statutes such as the Endangered Species Act and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) serve as regulatory weapons to reduce the impacts of grazing on federal lands, undermining the traditional grazing rights. The result is a federal land system strangled by what former U.S. Forest Service chief Jack Ward Thomas described as a “Gordian knot” of litigation and regulation.10
The problem of the “Gordian knot” is intensified by the vast reach of the federal government’s authority over western lands in general and over western livestock grazing in particular. Federal agencies control nearly half of the land in the western United States, including more than 60 percent of Idaho, 67 percent of Utah, and more than 80 percent of Nevada.11
As a result, livestock grazing in the West is a federal land issue in many cases. Due to the relatively small amounts of private land in the West, along with the region’s arid conditions, which require large amounts of land to sustain livestock operations, western ranchers have relied on access to federal land for forage resources for more than a century.
Today, the BLM administers nearly 18,000 grazing permits and manages more than 21,000 grazing allotments on 155 million acres of public lands managed for livestock grazing.12
The U.S. Forest Service also administers a federal grazing program in the agency’s national forests and grasslands, comprising more than 95 million acres of land with nearly 6,000 permittees.13
In 2013, together, these agencies provided 15 million AUMs worth of forage resources for livestock grazing, or enough forage to feed 15 million cow-calf pairs or 75 million sheep or goats for a month.
Federal control over grazing in the American West means that debates over who gets to do what on the land are ultimately determined through political or legal processes rather than a market process. As a result, disputes are ridden with acrimony, litigation, and in some cases even violence or intimidation. In 1997, when the BLM proposed to significantly reduce public land grazing in Owyhee County, Idaho, the local sheriff threatened to throw federal agents in jail if they enforced the reductions.14
Prior to the standoff on Bundy’s ranch, Nevada ranchers had repeatedly resorted to violence and intimidation to resist similar grazing restrictions. Environmentalists have even sabotaged grazing operations by cutting barbed-wire fences and otherwise disrupting public land grazing practices.15
This essay examines the U.S. federal grazing system and explores its ability—or its inability—to resolve competing demands through negotiation rather than conflict. Federal grazing policies in the United States have largely proven unable to reconcile conflicting demands on the western range. In many cases, existing policies may even exacerbate the problem. The central issue, this essay will argue, is the security and transferability of property rights to rangeland resources. In particular, conflicts over grazing on federal lands are the product of poorly defined grazing rights and restrictions on the transferability of grazing permits. Environmental groups and other competing user groups effectively have no way to bargain with livestock owners to acquire grazing rights. Their ability to trade is prohibited or severely limited under existing federal grazing policies. As a result, federal rangelands are too often the subject of conflict, litigation, or regulation, rather than exchange, negotiation, or cooperation.
In the sections that follow, this essay explores these challenges and identifies key issues and opportunities for reform. It offers a framework for thinking about how grazing conflicts are resolved, borrowing from a theory known as raid or trade, and explores several efforts by conservation groups and private landowners to overcome the barriers to trading rights to the federal rangeland. The essay concludes by exploring the lessons learned from these limited efforts in the United States and discusses how the federal grazing experience might inform rangeland policy in other jurisdictions. In the process, it suggests several opportunities for reforming the U.S. federal grazing policy to promote more sensible, peaceable solutions to conflicts over the western rangeland.

Bundy Ranch Trial Update: Eric Parker, on behalf of himself and 12 others, calls upon supporters of political prisoners to ask the Nye County Sheriff to look at protected discovery evidence that they all believe will exonerate them from the charges they face from the Bundy Ranch incident back in 2014.
https://youtu.be/Y5iufAN1jJ8
The Federal Government placed a protective order on the evidence to prevent the dissemination of names of witnesses, but defendants now believe that some of the evidence from dash and body cameras will prove who was and was not the aggressor on Saturday, 12 April 2014. They have asked the Sheriff to meet with them and place them into protective custody while lawyers motion to have charges against them dropped.

October 13, 2016
Ryan Payne’s attorneys did not want him to go public with this letter. You will note that it was written on September 19, 2016. He mailed it to me on October 3rd. However, the final decision to go public with it was withheld, at my request, until I received it and then got confirmation that he still wanted it to go public.
Today, October 13, I spoke with Ryan and he is still desirous of the letter going out. This has been edited for clarity, at Ryan’s request. The PDF (linked at the bottom) is as I received it.
As you will see, Ryan’s efforts were an attempt, by setting out false information, to provide a degree of safety for those patriot participants. If the government believed that there were things that really were not, then that would be an incentive to think before acting.
Today, October XX, I spoke with Ryan and he is still desirous of the letter going out. This has been edited for clarity, at Ryan’s request. The PDF (linked at the bottom) is as I received it.
Feel free to share this with anyone who might be interested, especially those that he addresses it to in the first paragraph.
Gary Hunt, Outpost of Freedom* * * * * * * * * * * * *Monday, September 19th, 2016To those Patriots, their families, and anyone affected by or involved with the indictment against Cliven Bundy and eighteen others,.This letter is my apology to you all and is open for disclosure to any and all who may have interest.
This letter and apology are necessary due to my negligence and lack of foresight during and after my time at the Bundy Ranch in April and May of 2014. During that time, I acted as a bodyguard to Cliven Bundy and various members of the Bundy Family, as a liaison between the Bundy Family and any unorganized militia concerned with protecting innocent lives, and as a chairman of defensive council meetings which occurred after the 12th of April, 2014.
In a number of interviews after the 12th of April, with a few different media outlets and activist groups, pertaining to the events surrounding the 12th, I made statements that were speculative, inaccurate, fabricated entirely, and others that were all three. The inaccurate, speculative, and/or fabricated statements had to do with:
1) There being a “plan” to accomplish certain objectives that there was never any “plan” to accomplish;
2) Certain capabilities existing that did not actually exist;
3) Circumstances or outcomes which may or may not have existed or been possible;
4) Command of individuals and/or groups in relation to a “plan,” of which there was no such command nor a plan to execute;
5) Any “planning” which was said to have taken place before the 12th of April, of which there was none.
1) There were outcomes that I discussed with Mr. Bundy on the morning of April 8, 2014, upon first meeting him, which were desirable to him and his family. These were then disseminated through conventional and alternative media outlets, in the belief that those who may decide to protest against the Sheriffs apparent lack of involvement, and/or against the brutal and militarized actions of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). This would give them more information to aid in making decisions for themselves and their actions. There was never a plan to accomplish these objectives, in any way, shape, or form, nor was there any intent to support any such plan, by myself, the Bundy’s, or any one else. As there was presumed to be a large protest on April 12th, I discussed, with numerous individuals, some particular things to be watchful for amongst the crowd, for the safety of all involved including law enforcement and federal employees. However, none of these discussions concerned a plan to achieve any objectives. This is true to my knowledge.
2) There were no long-range marksmen present before, during, or after the 12th, except those employed by the BLM as confirmed via photographic evidence disseminated before the 12th. There were no counter-sniper teams or positions, nor was there any plan for such. There were no qualified individuals or teams present to perform such a task, even if there had been a plan for it. Again, there was no such plan, and no orders were ever given in relation to such positions or teams, nor could there have been orders given, as there was no command authority. This is true to my knowledge.
3) There was no “Tactical Superiority,” any intent to achieve “Tactical Superiority,” and there was no plan concerning achieving “Tactical Superiority,” at any time before, during, or after the 12th, relating to the events which took place in and around Bunkerville, Nevada. There could be nothing other than speculation concerning any outcomes or circumstances pertaining to the 12th because there was neither a coordinated nor centralized offensive entity, plan, nor strategy, nor was there any intent to achieve or implement such.
Statements about what could or could not have happened if the BLM or Forest Service Tactical Strike Force had opened fire on the innocent protesters they were aiming their AR-15 style rifles at, which included women and children, were, are, and could only ever be speculative and based on opinion, as there was no coordination nor planned response to that scenario. This is true to my knowledge.
4) There was no “command” authority, “on-the-ground commander,” or any agreement to give, to receive, or to follow orders from anyone in the Bundy family, nor myself, nor anyone present or not present in Bunkerville, Nevada, before or on the 12th of April, 2014. Neither myself, nor anyone else, gave orders or instructions regarding fortified positions, or gaining tactical superiority, to anyone present on the 12th. There was certainly no agreement to commit a crime, or multiple crimes. This is true to my knowledge.
5) As stated in (1) above, there was never a plan, nor was there any planning pertaining to the events which took place before and on the 12th of April, aside from being able to provide food and water to protesters. This is true to my knowledge.
After the 12th, there were those of us that stayed with the Bundys for their own comfort and protection, as they related that they still felt that the government might attempt to do them harm again. The rhetoric issuing from Harry Reid about those American citizens that protested on the 12th being, calling them “domestic-terrorists”, led many of us to believe that the stage was being set for a government action reminiscent of Waco, Texas and Ruby Ridge, Idaho. In both instances, FBI agents killed women and children. Continued lies from different government representatives furthered that sentiment, and it was felt that there was not the ability to defend against such an action.
In lieu of the lack of ability, but the desire to defend against, what many felt, would amount to a government-orchestrated execution of the Bundys and others involved, I took it upon myself to disseminate a series of calculated misrepresentations, fabrications, and speculations, concerning the events of the 12th. Others did the same. The facade created by these misrepresentations was intended to make it seem as if the protest on the 12th was planned, orchestrated, and carried out by those who were still protecting the Bundys. This projected the notion that any subsequent aggressive action on the part of the government could be responded to in a similar manner that could quickly and easily be achieved by those still present at the ranch, at that time. I made other statements to present the appearance that government retaliation against the lawful protesters at their homes across the union could result in a similar response.
The government has apparently used my statements, and other’s statements, to justify the present indictment. Although my intentions were to help secure the lives of innocent Americans, my words have probably contributed to their current imprisonment. My altruistic motive does not clear my negligence in using a method, intended to protect; that could later be used against all of those implicated through the method. I did not foresee that the government would use those statements to contrive the intent of committing crimes, and contrive conspiracies to do so via contrived agreements with others.
I am prohibited by a court order from discussing the particulars of the “evidence” the government collected over the last two and a half years in its intrusive investigation into this matter. However, I can relate to you that it has become obvious to those who are reviewing it, that the government found no evidence of any conspiracies to commit any crimes. They have discovered that my statements were not factual, so they fabricated their indictment, using language of their own. Though they mimicked language that I had used, which is essentially proof that their indictment is based on falsity and misrepresentations. They are very crafty in having used a facade intended to protect, in order to create a facade intended to implicate the commission of crimes; yet it is indisputable, that the latter is even further from the truth than the former, given that its credibility relies on previous falsities.
The “evidence” also might reveal, through their own documentation, the blatantly unlawful and overly forceful tactics employed by the BLM and Forest Service, and perhaps even present a mode of indicting employees working for federal bureaucracies for the very crimes they allege against us. Us includes you, the American People, because while there were thousands from across the union that lawfully protested and supported protesting on April 12th, nineteen of us bear the whole weight of the federal government by this prosecution. Perhaps this is why they are keeping it sealed. Perhaps the same is true in the Oregon case as well. I am not allowed to say what the evidence is, but I have reviewed enough to form an opinion. The People should know, and perhaps one day you shall.
I would also take this opportunity to give a few words regarding the federal informant Mark McConnell. Bear no grudge. Harbor no animosity. Exact no vengeance, for vengeance is the L-rd’s. He continues to attempt to justify himself and his actions, which a man is inclined to do by his nature. He continues to lie and mislead; he continues to perform the will of his master. But I forgive Mark, despite the facts that I have become aware of over the last eight months, which are not limited to his dealings in relation to LaVoy Finicum’s murder. I forgive him for what he has done and what he continues to do.
Mr. McConnell: in the words of King Leonidas, to Ephialtes, the traitor who showed the Persians the way to thwart the Spartan led defense of all Greece during the battle of Thermopylae, “May you live forever.” May you be an example to future generations, of the cunning and mischief of a corrupt government and the people it uses and destroys to its own purpose. You are another part of G-d’s perfect plan, which is being revealed, and we all play our part. The “virus,” of truth, liberty, and the power of The People, was spreading from Harney County, Oregon, and you helped stall the tide. But the waters can only be held for so long; the pressure builds, and that which was intended to stall, becomes the means of creating an overwhelming surge.
I also forgive Lt. Needham of the Harney County Sheriff’s Department, for the lies he told, on the stand and under oath, regarding a conversation he and I had in early December of 2015, before the Refuge protest. Perhaps the conversation we had after I was arrested, while in the prisoner transport van, induced him to fabricate such statements. Deputy Lucas McLain was there, and I’m sure he can recall, as can Shawna Cox, Ammon Bundy, Mark McConnell, Victoria Sharp, and Brian Cavalier. One is his comrade-in-blue (Dep. McLain), two that can lie for the government (McConnell & Cavalier), each within something to gain for their efforts. However, the others who are witness to this are incarcerated (Ammon & Shawna), and one is still trying to discern the truth of many things for herself (Victoria Sharp). But, I’m sure they all recall my questions about his past. Or perhaps he was pressured in some way to fabricate those statements. Only he and G-d know the truth as to why he lied, but I know that it is true that he lied. May you also live forever, Sir. And may the light shine…
A man told me once, “Sunlight is the best disinfectant.” I heard the same from his son, and his other son; my friends. That man was Cliven Bundy, and his sons Ammon and Ryan. I believe this is true, and that the light will expose that which was formerly in the dark; and I believe that One created both, and all that they encompass. I am sorry for the pain and suffering caused by our incarceration, and I’m sorry if my words or actions have contributed to it. I have learned that even the best of intentions can result in adverse outcomes, and I will write this lesson on my heart. May our L-rd in heaven let His countenance shine on us all, that we will learn the truth, and know peace. Shalom!
With utmost sincerity, Your faithful and humble servant,/s/ Ryan Payne* * * * * * * * * * * * *Note: In an article posted today, at “Burns Chronicles“, Ryan Payne has moved to withdraw his plea agreement, partially based upon trial based circumstances in the Nevada trial.

The Bundy Affair – #18
Sheriff Wehrly v. CCA and the feds?
http://outpost-of-freedom.com/blog/w...nter_-_CCA.jpgGary Hunt
Outpost of Freedom
October 17, 2016
I was asked to forward the following document to Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly. The concern was that if it was sent out by an inmate in the Southern Nevada Detention Center (SNDC), a CCA (Customer base: U.S. Marshals Service – Facility Type: Medium, Owned since 2010) facility, that they would have no way of determining whether it was received by the Sheriff, or not. It could simply end up in the trash bin, or on the desk of the US Marshal Service (USMS).
For the record, it went in the mail about the same time this article is being posted.
So, being the curious sort, I wanted to find more about the SNDC, a went searching for the contract between the CCA and the USMS, or whoever was the party on the government side. I was able to find the highly redacted Solicitation and Contract for the construction of the facility, with an initial price tag of $122,250,660.00. The solicitation also included construction, maintenance, control, prisoner requirements, and a number of change orders -which, obviously allowed them to exceed the $122 million price tag. However, any per bed cost was redacted, as were the other prisoner related expenses.
What is quite clear is that the federal government pays for 750 beds per day, whether occupied, or not. Any additional beds are paid for as long as they are used. Well, that means that until the 750 beds are full, the government is simply throwing away our money. However, being conscious of that, it may well be that they endeavor to keep as many of those beds filled, all of the time.
This, then, would mean that if they can declare someone a “flight risk” or a “danger to the community”, instead of allowing them out on bail, or a more realistic “pre-trial release”, they are not saving many, but they are making CCA earn our money.
However, in reviewing the information I had gleaned and from the letter (below) the is being sent to the Sheriff, other questions arose that I wish to lay before you, the People..First is what the intent was in the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution when it says:
No person shall… be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.
Simply with the opinion of the Prosecutor, who claims that those who have families and homes to tie them to the land, which pretty much assures that they will not abandon their life’s work, are “flight risks”; or, that those who have never harmed anyone are “a “danger to the community”, begins a process. This, then, results in the deprivation of liberty, with the simple concurrence of the judge. It seems more like collusion to me.However, we can’t just leave the question at that.
We need to also look at the intent of the Eighth Amendment, which says:
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
Now, that says “Excessive bail“. What can we conclude, with regard to intent? The implication is clear — that for one to retain that “liberty“, that he is not to “be deprived of“, the bail is a requisite, and only an “Excessive bail” is prohibited. So, by what perverse interpretation can that bail be denied and those who have been in custody for over eight months, be consistent with the limitations imposed on the government by the Constitution?
Now, the final consideration is the additional limitation imposed on the government by another provision in that Amendment, and relies, also, on the whole concept of “innocent until proven guilty”. If one is innocent, then is it not cruel, though unfortunately in this modern police state not necessarily unusual, to imprison someone on such meager pretenses?
Now, the final consideration is one of jurisdiction, and that is where the “inmate’s” letter comes in to play. The SNDC is a privately owned facility, under contract to the federal government. It is on privately owned land that has left the federal public lands, years ago. It was never ceded back to the federal government, as required by Article I, § 8, clause 17, so it clearly is under the jurisdiction of ONLY Nevada and Nye County.
Now, if we stand back and look with an objective eye, perhaps we should really see that these 12 people have been deprived of their liberty as a consequence of being kidnapped by the federal government, in violation of the Constitution. They are detained by a co-conspirator, the CCA, in violation of the Constitution, and absent any legal authority on the part of the CCA — simply a contract to deprive them of their rights. And, finally, within the jurisdiction of Nye County, Nevada and Sheriff Sharon Wehrly.
This, of course, leaves us to ponder whether the state and local governments will conform to their state constitutional duties and protect people within their jurisdiction against overreach, and criminal acts, of the federal government and its co-conspirators.
Now, considering the matter carefully, all that is necessary is for the Sheriff to take protective custody of the inmates, and then present them to a local court to determine if the State Constitution prohibits the acts mentioned above. And, if so, to release them on their own recognizance, subject, of course, to them agreeing to appear to present their case under the pending federal Indictment.

Subject: Emergency Request for Protective Custody
Dear Sheriff Wehrly,
As you may already be aware, the discovery/evidence obtained by the government in the Bundy case has been subjected to a secretive “Protective Order” prohibiting the public release of information which would prove our innocence, and contradict the government and court justifications for our current captivity. Now that we’ve had an opportunity to review the U.S. government’s body cam, dash-cam, video, photographic, and audio evidence, we believe that the protective order was put in place so that the government can continue to deceive the public, without any disclosure of the truth, tainting the perspective jury pool.
We currently possess evidence which shows, with no doubt what so ever, that we defendants have essentially been kidnapped and held against our will, the only explanation for such being some political malfeasance. We have indisputable photographic and audio evidence which totally exonerates us, and we would like to share this information with you as soon as possible.
We have begged the court to release us from pre-trial detention, and we have all been denied. The prosecution has literally trumped up accusations in order to justify labeling each of us “a danger to the community” and “a flight risk”. The US Government obviously knows that we are all innocent and is now using pre-trial detention as a punishment for us and our families while we are supposedly “ presumed innocent”, and as a tool to intimidate others who might be inclined to protest against government actions the disagree with. This appears to be a political conspiracy to chill any future effort by the people to redress grievances regarding increasingly heavy-handed tactics and militarization of law enforcement, both of which are clearly portrayed by the government’s discovery productions.
We are respectfully submitting this emergency request for your intervention; and we also request to immediately be placed in your protective custody, within your county jurisdiction, while our attorneys prepare an emergency request for the dismissal of all charges against us. We are currently held prisoner at a private facility, Nevada Southern Detention Center, which is within your constitutional jurisdiction to uphold the law. The federal government can by no means justify our current captivity on lawful grounds, and is making a great effort to hide this fact. This alludes to a conspiracy between two separate branches of government; executive, and judicial.
Please assert your constitutional authority, as the chief law enforcement officer in your county, and demand an in-person meeting with any one of the defendants named below. The federal government is detaining many presumably innocent citizens within counties across the Union, and will continue to do so as long as county Sheriffs, the highest elected law enforcement officers of the land, allow this atrocious unlawful practice, which amounts to kidnapping, to persist. We assume that action would be taken if there was awareness of the situation, and a very brief investigation into the facts we can present you with will expose the matters succinctly, at least in regards to our case.We thank you in advance, with faith that your interest in upholding the law and the Constitution will compel your involvement in this matter.

Lawyer in Bundy Ranch standoff wants evidence gatherd by FBI masquerading as movie company blocked.
Excerpt: "A defense lawyer in the Bunkerville standoff case has filed court papers seeking to toss out evidence obtained against his client by undercover “law enforcement agents” posing as a video production crew.
Terrence Jackson says in the court papers that he wants a hearing on whether to bar federal prosecutors from using an interview his client Gregory Burleson gave to the undercover company Longbow Productions in October 2014.
“An evidentiary hearing will establish that Longbow Productions had supplied Burleson multiple alcoholic drinks before the interview, then continued supplying him with alcohol with the deliberate intent to induce him to make incriminating admissions,” Jackson wrote.
“The evidentiary hearing will also show that Longbow Productions is a quasi law enforcement group designed to investigate the Bundy ranch standoff occurring in April 2014.”
Other defense lawyers in the case told the Las Vegas Review-Journal last month that they believed FBI agents had posed as a documentary film crew for Longbow Productions during the investigation. One lawyer made the same assertion in court documents."

From facebook, re Blaine Cooper and a blip about grand jury indictement re FBI HRT team that murdered LaVoy
The Truth Is Viral7 hrs ·
Blaine Cooper has proffered a deal with federal prosecutors in which he would testify against the five members of the Bundy family, along with 13 others including independent journalist Peter T. Santilli. All of the men have been charged with at 16 federal felonies, and if found guilty could spend 50 years to life in prison.
Cooper called Patriot activist Jaime Spears from a federal detention facility in Nevada to tell her he had decided to make the deal so that he could, "go home to see my children." It is unknown at this time if prosecutors will accept the proffer, or what concessions they may be prepared to make in exchange for Cooper's testimony.
The trial is scheduled to begin on February 6th, more than a year since the group was arrested for their activities at the Bundy Ranch Standoff in 2014 and the occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in January of 2016 which ended in the death of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum at an ambush set by the FBI and Oregon State Police.
At least 2 members of the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team are under investigation by the DOJ's Office of the Inspector General and the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility for shooting at Finicum from elevated sniper positions, and then lying about having taken the shots to Oregon investigators.
Well-sourced information from inside the Department of Justice indicates that indictments of the HRT snipers are expected to be filed, but the exact charges have yet to be determined.

No Fair Trial For Cliven Bundy – Perspective Jury Pool Contaminated After Democrats send 700,000 Reasons To Connect Him to Las Vegas Cop Killers.
Guerilla Media Network LLC – Las Vegas Nevada – Monday – October 25th 2016
Deb Jordan Reports: Chris Rasmussen, attorney for jailed journalist Pete Santilli, has joined the Nevada Public Defenders Motion to Compel the Court for a “Change of Venue” after he received a mailer that was sent to over 700,000 households across the State. Rasmussen supplemented the Public Defenders motion by entering in as evidence several pieces of propaganda he feels supports the claim that defendants in the case of The United States vs Cliven Bundy et, al – will not receive a fair trial in Nevada.l
The flyer mailed by the Nevada Democratic party for Ruben Kihuen, done in the style of a wanted poster, depicts Cliven Bundy as being directly responsible for the murders of two Las Vegas Metro Police Officers in the summer of 2014.
http://thepetesantillishow.com/wp-co...1-676x1024.jpg
Jerad and Amanda Miller were briefly present at the April 2014 civil rights protest held on Cliven Bundy’s private property before they were asked to leave by security. It would be over two months later before the couple would carry out the brutal and perplexing murders of two Metro Officers while they were eating lunch at a CiCi’s pizza.
In November of 2013, just a few short months before the Bundy Ranch civil rights protest, the Millers were involved in the “Occupy Movement.” Occupy Protests tend to be attributed to the left. Bundy Ranch tends to be associated with the right. In both cases there are acts of civil disobedience, but the Democratic Party for Ruben Kihuen fails to mention the Miller’s close association with Occupy Wall Street, the extreme left leaning organization where civil disobedience often results in violence and chaos followed by destruction of property, looting, shattered storefronts, and multiple assaults on Law Enforcement Officers.
Instead Democrats, who overwhelmingly support causes for the left while demonizing the right, completely ignore the Miller’s connection to the Occupy Movement and choose not to explore the possibility the shooters were more steeped in the extreme left phenomenon of Anarchist behavior, than they were of the Patriot Movement’s ideology concerning abusive Government overreach when it comes to ranchers rights in Western States.
Las Vegas Metro Police and the Clark County Sheriffs Department cannot produce any report of violence or destruction of property during the Bundy Civil Rights Protest, except in those instances where the Bureau of Land Management were the perpetrators.
Sheriff Douglas Gillespi, the then Sheriff of Clarke County said at the time, there was no direct link to the couple’s killing spree and Cliven Bundy – noting that the two had arrived in Las Vegas in January of 2014 and that they had their own agenda for starting a revolution. Gillespi made clear he had seen NO evidence that the Miller’s had come to Nevada seeking out Cliven Bundy.
The couple had told friends they were disappointed in the Occupy Movement and Cliven Bundy because neither protest went far enough. Jerad Miller’s comments on YouTube and Facebook concerning his expulsion from Bundy Ranch echoed that sentiment:

MICHELE FIORE ROUNDING UP POLITICIANS AND HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE
http://thepetesantillishow.com/wp-co...1-1024x684.jpg
Elected officials who supported Cliven Bundy during his 2014 civil rights protest in Bunkerville, Nevada, are not surprised the Federal Government chose to seek an indictment against Cliven Bundy during an election year, and alerted attorneys working on the case when they saw one of the “mailers” that had been showing up in mailboxes throughout the State.
While there are a handful of hopefuls who have kept their word and refused to abandon the Bundy Family, many more have not. Instead of standing up to the powerful Democratic Party they chose to distance themselves from controversy and deny they ever took part in the protest at all; Nevada State Assembly Woman Michele Fiore, would not be one of them.
Michele Fiore spoke to Senator Ruben Kihuen, who is now running for Congress and connected to the propaganda piece by the Democratic Party, about her concerns over the mailer and he told her that: His campaign had not generated the mailer and that the Nevada Democratic Party, who must ultimately take responsibility, did not “nor did they have to” seek his approval before sending them out.
Fiore is furious that Political Leaders who empowered the people to protest in 2014 are now acting like cowards and choosing political careers over doing the right thing when it comes to Cliven Bundy. “This mailer is completely unacceptable she said, and somebody needs to be held accountable for putting this false narrative in Nevada mailboxes”
“Clearly the Bundy’s Civil Rights were being violated by a United States Government – Terrorist Organization – known as the BLM, and we all saw it happening with our own eyes. I was not the only elected official at that protest and what I want to know is; Where the hell are they now?”
Fiore admits that her own losing run for Congress was deeply affected because of her affiliation with the Bundy Protest, but that she has no regrets;The level of propaganda being allowed by the Democratic party must come to an end. We have men whose lives are on the line here in Nevada, and poisoning the jury pool with a downright lie must be dealt with. Not only do we have a case here that is already out of balance because it is being overseen by Judge Gloria Navarro, a left winger who was recommended by Harry Reid and appointed by Barack Obama, and Steven Myhre a Liberal Prosecutor who could obviously care less about fairness and truth, now we add to that more unfairness by allowing a left-wing propaganda machine to send out the message, that Cliven Bundy is directly responsible for the death of two of our Metro Police officers.Sheriff of Nye County Has Deep Concerns
This case should be awarded a change in venue in the fairness of law, and my peers should stop being cowards and get back to representing the truth about this case.
Cliven Bundy held a peaceful protest on his own property and even though the Federal Government was not invited, they came anyway.
They literally beat up on his family, set trained snipers on hillsides overlooking his ranch, came at them with stun guns and dogs, tried to restrict them to a first amendment area, killed and buried their cattle on public lands – in mass graves, threatened everyone who came to a lawful protest with lethal force, had armed helicopters and drones flying all over the place, and now they honestly want the American people to believe the Bundy’s were the bad guys — come on …
The Government has stacked the odds against these men, and I am telling you right now;
I will not stand by and watch them be railroaded by a bunch of left-wing extremist and sent to prison for crimes they did not commit.
This case should not only be moved out of the State of Nevada, it should be dismissed altogether.
I have no regrets for doing the right thing here when it comes to the Bundy’s — As hard as it is, I would rather lose every single race for office, before I would lose one nights sleep knowing I had betrayed them .”
Sharon Wehrly, the Sheriff of Nye County Nevada says she has received and taken seriously a request for intervention written to her by defendants in the case of United States vs Cliven Bundy Et Al, and is moving forward with a request to have the prisoners moved to her Nye County facility.
“We are almost there,” said Sheriff Sharon Wehrly, who explained she has already requested transfer of the defendants to the Nye County Jail.
Among concerns of the men being housed in a corporate owned facility, is that their phone calls with attorneys are listened to and recorded by employees and they have little faith that men and women who do not take an oath to the Constitution, will abide by the law and not give that information to the Prosecution.
Sheriff Wehrly admits that confidentiality between a lawyer and his client is a basic human right, and that among other abuses being committed, would not be happening in her jail.
There is no doubt we have seen a stark change in the attitudes of guards since the mailers have been sent out across the State, said Pete Santilli, a journalist who was indicted in the case.
It’s hard enough to mount a decent defense behind bars and now we have a political party who publishes a complete lie and poisons our potential jury pool. Because the judge has already created a strong public bias by deeming us all too violent for pre-trial release, and now mailers in hundreds of thousands Nevadan mailboxes are calling us cop killers — there is no way we can get a fair trial with an unbiased jury in Nevada.Journalists and defendants, along with their attorneys agree that this case is being shrouded in secrecy for a reason, and the idea of a coverup up for wrongdoing by Public Officials – including the FBI and the BLM – is not that far fetched.
All of the men being charged are still adamant that discovery (evidence) if allowed to be seen by the media and scrutinized by the public, would sway judicial and public opinion and force their pre-trial release.

DeLemus to withdraw guilty plea after associates acquitted
http://gold-silver.us/forum/safari-r...tamp=&maxw=729
This screengrab shows Jerry DeLemus in Bunkersville, Nev., just after the Cliven Bundy standoff in 2014. (YouTube)
By KEVIN LANDRIGANNew Hampshire Union Leader
A conservative New Hampshire activist asked his lawyer Friday to withdraw a guilty plea for conspiracy over a Nevada standoff after seven co-defendants and his former associates were acquitted over separate charges of occupying a wildlife refuge in Oregon, according to a close family friend.
Last July, Gerald “Jerry” DeLemus of Rochester became the first defendant to plead guilty in connection with the armed confrontation in 2014 with U.S. officials over grazing rights near cattleman and open-range advocate Cliven Bundy’s ranch in Nevada.
A DeLemus confidante, former New Hampshire Republican State Chairman Jack Kimball, said he spoke by telephone with DeLemus twice in the past two days and confirmed the change of heart.
“He met with his attorney today and instructed him to withdraw his plea. It probably won’t be filed until the next business day on Monday,” Kimball said during a telephone interview.
And Kimball said DeLemus instructed him to reveal for the first time that the guilty plea was coerced by federal prosecutors.
“He told me that he was coerced badly. He said ‘my family was threatened.’ He said ‘I was told they were going to go after my family and my friends if I wouldn’t do this,’” Kimball said.
“He said, ‘I decided I would plea so they would leave them alone.’”
DeLemus has been incarcerated in a Nevada federal prison since his arrest last March.
He and his lawyer could not be reached for comment.
His wife, Susan, a Republican state legislator from Rochester, told associates on her Facebook account of her husband’s change of plea.
“Well now he’s changed his plea back innocent,” DeLemus posted early Friday morning.
DeLemus and his wife were vocal supporters of Donald Trump’s campaign prior to Trump winning the first-in-the-nation primary.
On Thursday in Oregon, a 12-person jury found accused Oregon occupation leaders Ammon and Ryan Bundy not guilty of the government’s primary charge: conspiracy to impede federal officers by force, threat or intimidation in connection with the occupation of the wildlife refuge in January and February of this year.
Their five co-defendants — Jeff Banta, Shawna Cox, David Fry, Kenneth Medenbach and Neil Wampler — have all been found not guilty as well.
Jurors were unable to reach a verdict on Ryan Bundy’s theft of government property charge.
In another strange twist, Marcus Mumford, Ammon Bundy’s lawyer, said he was charged with resisting arrest after a scuffle in court right after the verdict.
Mumford argued for his client’s immediate release but the judge denied the request because both Bundys face the same charges as DeLemus does in Nevada.
After raising his voice to the judge, published reports say U.S. marshals tackled Mumford, using a stun gun to subdue him before clearing the courtroom.
Last July, DeLemus and Blaine Cooper of Humboldt, Ariz., each admitted to conspiring with others who engaged in a tense gunpoint standoff with federal Bureau of Land Management agents in April 2014 near Bundy’s property about 80 miles northeast of Las Vegas.
Both said they weren’t there for the standoff, but confessed to interfering with the execution of federal court orders. They said they did recruit and organize armed gunmen to support Bundy and sons Ammon, Ryan, Mel and Dave Bundy in efforts to prevent the roundup of Bundy cattle from the scenic Gold Butte area.
Their plea deals had called for sentences of six years in federal prison, although their defense attorneys could have sought leniency at sentencing Dec. 1. Each also could have been fined up to $500,000 and be subject to up to three years of government supervision after prison.
All of that for DeLemus is off the table with this plea withdrawal and trial is likely to commence this February.
But Kimball urged federal prosecutors to drop the charges against DeLemus and the other defendants in the Nevada case.
“They are going to get embarrassed. All of this stuff is going to come out and it is going to be revealed what the authorities were doing,” Kimball said.
“They were the only ones abusing power.”
Kimball said the verdict strikes a blow for citizen justice.
“This is a great thing,” Kimball said.
“This is what happens when justice is determined by objective people, real Americans.
“You don’t usually see not-guilty verdicts in cases such as this but they realized it all was just kangaroo courts.”

FBI posed as a documentary film crew to gather evidence during Bunkerville investigation. This has been reported before, now confirmed by prosecution.
http://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/c...-investigation

Prosecutors confirm FBI agents posed as film crew in Bunkerville standoff investigation
Federal prosecutors confirmed late Wednesday that undercover FBI agents posed as a documentary film crew to gather evidence during their investigation of the April 2014 standoff near Bunkerville.
In court papers, the four prosecutors handling the case, including First Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven Myhre, did not identify the company used in the ruse.
But defense lawyers who have seen FBI reports of the undercover operation have previously said in court documents that the company’s name was Longbow Productions.
Several of the 19 defendants charged in the Bunkerville case — including Ammon Bundy, one of the leaders of the alleged assault on Bureau of Land Management officers — were tricked into doing interviews with the undercover agents before they were charged.
Prosecutors revealed the undercover sting in a written response to court papers filed by another defendant, Gregory Burleson, who accused FBI agents of misconduct for giving him liquor during his October 2014 interview at a Phoenix hotel room.
Burleson’s defense lawyer, Terrence Jackson, has asked a federal judge to toss out the evidence obtained against Burleson by an undercover Longbow crew, arguing that plying him with alcohol induced him to make incriminating admissions.
But in their court papers Wednesday, prosecutors defended the undercover operation and said Jackson has no evidence of government misconduct.
“As an initial matter, there was no interrogation process,” the prosecutors wrote. “Burleson voluntarily met and spoke with undercover agents posing as documentary filmmakers.
“They met in a hotel room under circumstances designed to make Burleson believe that he was participating in a documentary by recounting his experiences at the April 12, 2014, assault.”
Prosecutors acknowledged that agents gave Burleson alcohol before and after the interview.
“But that alone fails to establish that Burleson’s answers were anything other than coherent, freely given responses to the questions posed,” they wrote. “Burleson cannot establish any coercive police activity was used to elicit his statement given the context of the undercover operation or that the officers prevented Burleson from walking away from the conversation at any time.”
His answers were consistent with other statements he made to law enforcement and on social media, prosecutors said.
Burleson, who maintains that he is now legally blind and suffering from other medical ailments, was a gunman during the Bunkerville confrontation, according to prosecutors. He has been associated with militia groups in Arizona over the years.
Bundy is regarded by prosecutors as one of the leaders of the armed standoff. Last week, he was acquitted with six others by a federal jury in Portland on charges of taking over a government wildlife refuge in Oregon earlier this year. He was being transported Thursday by U.S. marshals to Nevada to face the Bunkerville charges.
His Las Vegas attorney, Dan Hill, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal last month that Bundy was interviewed for several hours in Phoenix by Longbow Productions.
“Ammon has nothing to hide, but this is one of the many troubling actions the government took in this case,” Hill said Thursday. “There’s something troubling about the FBI posing as a First Amendment journalist outlet to interview suspects in an investigation with no attorney. They would never have gotten a legitimate interview from Ammon.”
Eric Parker, whom prosecutors described as a gunman at the Bunkerville standoff, was interviewed by Longbow Productions in Idaho, where he lives.
“It’s a little bothersome that they created this ruse,” said his attorney, Jess Marchese. “You’d like for them to be aboveboard and upfront and honest that they’re agents. But it doesn’t necessarily hurt my client as a whole because his recitation of the facts has been consistent from Day One.”
Defense lawyer Chris Rasmussen, who represents Peter Santilli in the case, said the undercover operation circumvented the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination for some of the defendants, along with their Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial.
It also creates First Amendment issues for the news media, said Rasmussen, whose client, an internet radio talk show host, was not interviewed by Longbow Productions.
“It puts a chill in the air for people who want to report newsworthy events,” Rasmussen explained. “This creates a cause for concern for journalists everywhere that their sources can’t be confident they’re talking to a news agency.”
Attorney Brett Whipple, who is defending Bundy’s father, Cliven, also was critical of the undercover FBI operation.
“This shows the lengths they’re willing to go to target individuals that they believe are challenging the federal government,” Whipple said. “I’m very concerned about the use of this ruse to gather this information.”
The Bundy patriarch was not interviewed by Longbow Productions.

In the book, “Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse Of Global Transformation”, the author and economist, Patrick M. Wood, addresses the Agenda 21 deception by exposing the “Lexicon of Technocracy” that dates all the way back to the 1930’s and consisting of terms such as: “Sustainable Development”, “Green Economy” and “Smart Growth”. These terms, while utilized ostensibly to conserve and preserve the environment of planet earth, actually represent nothing less than a “resource grab” by the economic and political global elite.
In his book, as well as various online forums, Wood describes how Barack Obama has invoked the obscure 1906 Antiquities Act to grab 265 million acres from states, privately held individuals and companies; which is more than any other U.S. president in history. In a chilling manner, Wood outlines how, under the guise of preservation for future generations, the Dark Powers That Be are actually stealing lands that are loaded with resources including minerals, metals and timber that could be used for various agricultural purposes, to help pay down the national debt or to provide jobs that would benefit middle class families. Instead, however, these areas have been sealed off and not even allowed to be used by U.S. citizens for hunting or recreation.
Through the ruse of various .gov agencies, over 36% of the entire United States land mass, or 836.5 million acres, has been confiscated as follows:
•Bureau of Land Management – 247.3 million acres
•Fish and Game – 89.1 million acres
•Forest Service – 197.1 million acres
•National Park Service – 84 million acres
•109 million acres of wilderness areas
•110 million acres of wetlands

My Dear Brothers & Sisters
I am in jail, that doesn’t sound good and it is hard. I was in solitary confinement for 4 months. I had reviewed the Old Testament and read and studied the other standard works. One late afternoon I saw a light shining off the wall of my cell 2 inches wide and 6 inches long. It was the first sunlight I had seen in months. I thought, “I have seen the light!”
For the last two years since the Bundy Ranch Protest I have realized that our God (Heavenly Father) loves each and every one of us on this earth. I have spoken to hundreds of million of His children around the world. I have testified to them of their worth and of the Father’s love for each of them, as souls He loves. I testify that the gospel of Jesus Christ (the Lord) is not concerned with what has happened to you in your past life. He is only concerned with what is going to happen to you from this moment forward. The Lord says to forgive, repent, and forget. Open your arms, gather in a husband, a wife, some children and many grandchildren and come to my Father’s house united as a family. I have said if you cannot believe in Jesus Christ, believe in a Father in Heaven that loves you.
Today we have a choice! We have a VOTE! We are all tired of the establishment, the large central government. We are not happy. We are scared. We do not feel secure in economy or safety. Is this Nation becoming ripe in iniquity?
On TV a political ad shows a young man that has had a childhood health problem. You see President-elect Donald Trump supposedly throwing his arms in the air making fun of persons with facial or mental defects. I do not like a man with that type of thought and action, if that ad is even true.
Let’s look at the alternative – President-elect Hillary Clinton. If she has her way and with the US Congress established way, that young man would not have a life. He would have been aborted and the fee paid by US Congress!
On the jail cell wall there are 3 TVs. I see anti Trump ads stating him saying slur language about women. I do not like that. I look up at the TV at any time of day or night and I see nudeness, guns pointing at someone, domestic violence, youth involved with sexual or homosexual dialogs, vulgar and filthy language, most ugly monsters, cartoons as sex, victim’s blood, and torture. It is all evil. It’s the darkest, filthiest, vulgar and violent, most immoral, and cursing using God’s name. They’re making money, claiming protection and having it, by all three branches of US government, stating free speech rights of the US Constitution.
President-elect Hillary Clinton is and represents this establishment. Can we stay or endure as human beings? ALL BEING PROTECTED BY THE FREE SPEECH
I live in a jail pod with 100 men and each minute I endure the free speech of many times dirtier language about Heavenly Father’s daughters along with what is on TV, compared to Mr. Trump’s comments.
Thirty co-defendants, 4 sons and I have not abused our free speech right as mentioned above. We are charged with conspiracy against the US government. We have exercised our US Constitutional 1st amendment rights, guaranteed by the Constitution. We protested the county sheriff, state and county elected officers to protect our neighbors, state sovereignty, sheriff policing power their oaths to protect state laws, the US Constitution, our lives, liberty, and property. This proper form of government that we protest for is not a large central government. It is as the US founders and the Constitution intended, a republic, a local small county government, one of We the People, by the People, for We the People. Where we elect our county sheriff and county commissioners. We pay the sheriff to protect our life, liberty, and property. We elect the judges and we are the jury.
VOTE – Donald Trump. He believes in the proper form of government. He is a producer. He knows how to build. He will protect each of our lives, liberty, and our property and defend our1st and 2nd amendment rights. Mr. Donald Trump has the human instinct to protect the beautiful miracle of an unborn baby’s precious life.
GO VOTE!!!!

Cliven Bundy – the Nevada rancher scheduled to go to trial early next year for his 2014 armed standoff against the federal government – is suing a Democratic congressional candidate for defamation for linking the standoff to the deaths of two Law Vegas police officers.
In a complaint filed in state court in Clark County, Nevada, Bundy alleges that Ruben Kihuen engaged in "willful and malicious defamatory communications." Kihuen is the Democratic nominee for the House in Nevada's 4th Congressional District. In response to the lawsuit, Kihuen's campaign denied that the campaign communications were defamatory.
ADVERTISING
Bundy's lawsuit centers on a television ad (more on that in a moment) and a campaign mailer that tied Kihuen's Republican opponent, Rep. Cresent Hardy (R-NV), to Bundy. The mailer alleged that Bundy's 2014 standoff "led to the death of two Las Vegas police officers."
The complaint doesn't specifically identify the mailer in question. Bundy's lawyer Bret Whipple told TPM in a phone interview, “I know there is at least one and potentially two mailers I am concerned about.” The mailer below was provided to TPM by the Kihuen campaign and matches the description included in the complaint.
http://a5.img.talkingpointsmemo.com/...ghq4ip1ugw.jpg
The Kihuen campaign told TPM it never aired a TV ad alleging that the 2014 Bundy standoff led to the deaths of two Las Vegas police officers.
As for the TV ad referenced in the complaint, Whipple said, “I have not seen the TV ad myself.”
“I don’t watch TV normally and if I do I just flip it to the History channel," Whipple said. “I was told by people, in fact one of my paralegals, that they observed it. “
The backstory on the police shootings:
In 2014, Jared and Amanda Miller – a husband and wife – killed two Las Vegas police officers. At the time, news outlets reported that the Millers shared "some apparent ideology that is along the lines of militia and white supremacists" and that they had both spent time at the Bundy Ranch standoff earlier 2014. After shooting the police in a restaurant, the pair moved to a Walmart where they shot another man. Then, Jared Miller was killed by police and Amanda Miller committed suicide, according to news reports from the time.
In his complaint, Bundy denies meeting with or speaking to the Millers:
http://a5.img.talkingpointsmemo.com/...veehxlzh8s.jpg
In a statement, the Kihuen campaign called Bundy's complaint "beyond absurd."
"Cliven Bundy led an illegal armed standoff at Bunkerville, and when it was over two of his supporters assassinated two Las Vegas metro police officers," campaign manager Dave Chase said. "It is beyond absurd for Cliven Bundy to pretend he’s worried about protecting his 'good name' while his son is talking to national media about leading yet another armed insurrection, this time at Gold Butte. This lawsuit – filed just days before an election – is clearly nothing more than a political stunt from Cliven Bundy on behalf of his close friend and ally Congressman Hardy.”

John Lamb's praise for Pete Santilli

Peter Santilli
Now, here's a hero to go in our history books! Though I've never got to meet him out side the court room, I feel I've known him my whole life. After listening to every news report from him during the protest in Burns Oregon, and while attending court hearings in Portland earlier this year, you couldn't help but love Pete. He came in through the side door in the court room with US Marshalls all around him . Dressed in blue jail scrubs and shackles, you would have thought he murdered someone instead of just reported the news. But, as he came in he always looked back to see us in the back of the court room and gave a big smile. And occasionally he would say something to the media like , "report the truth about the murder of LaVoy!"
Pete is one of the biggest examples of injustice by the federal government.They want to silence the truth. So they tried to get him to take a plea deal, that to most would be a deal too good to refuse, but he was innocent and he refused to plead guilty to their lies. So, just the day before trial was to start they dismissed the charges against him. An innocent man was held in jail for almost 8 months without a bond. Prosecutors were pretending to have enough evidence to convict him, and when they couldn't break him, "oops we don't have any evidence on this man"! Is this what america does? Do we gamble with people's lives in hopes to threaten the innocent to take a plea?
Pete loves his country and served his country as a Marine with pride and honor. But, he knew that the media was telling nothing but lies. And he had no agenda but to serve his fellow Americans and report the truth. He stood up to report the truth like very few ever do, because he couldn't be bought out like CNN and Fox News. He should be getting a medal of honor from our government instead of being treated as a terrorist.
After Oregon dismissed charges against him , Nevada has continued to hold this innocent man for nothing more than his 1st amendment constitutional rights to have freedom of the press and freedom of speech.
This man from Ohio is who I heard the real truth from, January 2016 from Burns Oregon. And I stand with him. He is a political prisoner, in Pahrump Nevada, of this current corrupt government, and should be released immediately

Racist Campaign Propaganda Leads To Disciplinary Action In Cliven Bundy Case
PROVEN – STRONG – ADVOCACY – JOURNALISM
http://thepetesantillishow.com/wp-co...294-300x71.gif
GMN REPORTS – Las Vegas Nevada
The high profile Nevada case of United States vs Cliven Bundy et al is anticipated to be in the spotlight much more in the coming months now that Ammon and Ryan Bundy have been successfully transferred to The Southern Nevada Detention Center in Parhump Nevada. After being acquitted on charges of conspiracy in the State of Oregon, the two Sons of Cliven Bundy have now joined their father and two brothers Mel & Dave, to tackle what many are calling the biggest case concerning civil rights Nevada has ever seen.
[Update 11/03/16 @ 10:39 AM PST]: Ammon & Ryan Bundy – Were first sent to and spent the night in Seattle Washington — There is no word as to whether or not they made it to Nevada overnight.]
Attorneys for the defense in the case still have concerns that Nevada may not be the idea place for this trial and have filed a joint motion for a change of venue.
There is no doubt the election has become ugly here in Nevada, said State Assembly Woman Michele Fiore. In fact, Fiore believes the race between Republican Cresent Hardy and Democrat Ruben Kihuen, may very well have extinguished all hopes of finding an impartial jury to hear the case.

Race-Baiter Ruben Kihuen – Strong Ties – To Bundy Hater Harry Reid
Just this week disciplinary action was taken against an employee at the Southern Nevada Detention Center for what the defendants in the case called a hostile reaction to ads being run on Nevada television insinuating Cliven Bundy is a racist.
Ms. Taylor, an African American woman, who refused to give GMN her first name when we reached out to her by phone earlier today, is in charge of the facilities Law Library, where Bundy and Co-defendents work on their cases to prepare for trial. Part of her duties include managing computer disks that contain discovery from the prosecutor’s office; defendants need regular access to those disk and the library to build their case.
The Defendants in the case agree, she was kind and helpful until about two weeks ago when they noticed a big change in her attitude toward them. It was then she began refusing to give them access to the discovery, slammed doors and screamed at them for asking simple questions, and repeatedly became confrontational when asked to accommodate them in securing a seat at computers in the library.
The confrontations became so regular and vicious that one defendant, after seeking advise of on duty guards, finally filed a complaint. The complaint noted that one of the statements made by Ms Taylor during a confrontation was, “Well, maybe I was better off when I was picken cotton,” a remark taken out of context that was widely distributed by media news outlets, and now being used by Senator Kihuen in his race for Congress.
Facility authorities admit Mr. Bundy nor any of the other inmates, have displayed any behavior that would lead to the impression they are racist.
PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO GUERILLA MEDIA NETWORK – JUST CLICK HERE
When Chief Delaney asked Ms Taylor if she had made reference to the ad during one of her outburst, she admitted to making the remark and said her drastic change in attitude was because of a commercial she had seen on television by Senator Ruben Kihuen.
For attorneys and their clients this signals another huge problem being caused by a politician who continues to portray Cliven Bundy as a racist, and it is not only effecting a potential jury pool, but also the mind of a woman who has direct access to sensitive information concerning this case.
Michele Fiore, a Nevada Lawmaker and advocate for the defendants being held on charges of conspiracy in her State, says she agrees with the attorneys;
If this woman cannot keep her personal feelings in check, and is that easily swayed by a political propaganda ad concerning Mr. Bundy, then maybe the SNDC should seriously consider replacing her with someone who is a little more professional.The men in Nevada, who are known for their well mannered behavior and overall respectful attitude toward employees at the facility, say that Chief Delaney spoke to them earlier today and said disciplinary actions were taken but that he would not disclose what those actions were.
We just want to work on our case they said, what concerns us more than anything right now is our right to a fair trial and Constitutional guarantee to a fair and impartial jury. If the reaction of Ms Taylor is any indication of what the public has been force fed into thinking, a fair trial will obviously be a challenge here in Nevada

I've thought the Bundys should have distanced themselves from other races in both of their confrontations with the Feds. The Feds, blacks, mexicans and indians are no friend of the white man when they have him out numbered in my experience.
A short message from Angie Bundy on current status of Ammon and Ryan

An update from Angie Bundy!!
"I've had many people asking how Ryan and Ammon are doing...they are together, along with Pete Santilli, and Jerry . They are busy studying the case. They do get to see Cliven, Mel, and Dave in the law library and at church services on Sunday. Ryan claims that this facility is way better than MCDC, but it's still jail, and I know they are all homesick and missing their families. The courts in Nevada have completely ignored the Nevada defendants. It's almost like they just want them forgotten. There have been no status hearings and NONE of the defendants have been let out on bail. Many of these men came with no other motive than to protect and help our family. Most of them have no criminal history, and none of them should be in jail for what happened in 2014. No laws were broken on the side of the protestors or ranchers. It was the Government that tased, beat, and hurt , threatened and intimidated. Everything done to us...we are being charged with. Thank you for all of your love and concern"
Cliven Bundy is apposed to three separate trials for the Bundy Ranch Standoff

Rancher Cliven Bundy opposes 3 separate trials in Bunkerville standoff case
Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy is opposing a proposal from federal prosecutors to split the 17 remaining defendants charged in the Bunkerville standoff case into three separate trials.
In a court document filed Wednesday, Bundy asked for all the defendants to be tried in February in one joint trial.
Bundy’s attorney, Bret Whipple, argued in the document that three separate trials would deprive the defendants of their right to a speedy trial. Whipple also argued that three trials would result in due process concerns because co-defendants will not want to testify in other trials before going to trial themselves.
If the court does not allow one joint trial, Bundy, 70, is asking that he go to trial after all the other defendants are tried in February “so as not to keep them in jail any longer than necessary.”
Bundy wants his co-defendants to be able to return to their families and jobs as soon as possible, and he is willing to wait longer if necessary, Whipple said in an interview.
Federal prosecutors filed paperwork earlier this month suggesting a tier of three trials, with the first one starting on Feb. 6 for Bundy and others alleged to be leaders: Bundy’s sons Ammon and Ryan, Peter Santilli, and Ryan Payne.
A second trial would start in May, and a third would begin in August.
The defendants face federal charges that include conspiring to assault federal agents on April 12, 2014, several miles from the Bundy ranch near Bunkerville.
Prosecutors allege the armed assault unfolded as the Bundys and their followers moved to take back Bundy cattle that had been impounded by Bureau of Land Management agents.
The impoundment happened after the BLM had obtained court orders to seize the cattle because no grazing fees had been paid to use federal public lands on which the cows roamed.
Ammon and Ryan Bundy were acquitted in October by a Portland jury in an armed takeover of a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon. The 41-day Oregon standoff unfolded early this year.

The Bundy Affair – #19 – Schuyler Barbeau Responds to Ryan Payne

Outpost of Freedom
November 30, 2016
Schuyler Barbeau receives copies of my articles, via mail, while detained at SeaTac Federal Detention Center. After reading “Ryan Payne Explains Some of the Circumstances Surrounding the Bundy Affair in April 2014“, Schuyler sent me the following to post, in response to that article.
* * * * * * * * * * * * *
11/14/2016
FDC SeaTac
This is an open letter,
To those Patriots, their families, anyone affected by or involved with the indictment against Cliven Bundy and eighteen others, the Government, FBI, Federal Prosecutors, and anyone else concerned with the case,
This letter is my concurrence with an open letter written and published by Ryan Payne.
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, was present before, during and after the “standoff” event that took place in Bunkerville, NV, near Cliven Bundy’s Ranch on April 12th, 2014. I arrived at noon on Friday the 11th, and was invited to be a member of the Personal Security Detail that evening. I then remained a member of the PSD [Personal Security Detail] for seven days.
Ryan Payne made five statements in his letter, that he made speculative, inaccurate, and/or fabricated statements before, during, and after the “standoff.”
“1) There were outcomes that I discussed with Mr. Bundy on the morning of April 8, 2014, upon first meeting him, which were desirable to him and his family. These were then disseminated through conventional and alternative media outlets, in the belief that those who may decide to protest against the Sheriff’s apparent lack of involvement, and/or against the brutal and militarized actions of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). This would give them more information to aid in making decisions for themselves and their actions. There was never a plan to accomplish these objectives, in any way, shape, or form, nor was there any intent to support any such plan, by myself, the Bundy’s, or anyone else. As there was presumed to be a large protest on April 12th, I discussed with numerous individuals, some particular things to be watch*ful for amongst the crowd, for the safety of all involved including law enforcement and federal employees. However, none of these discussions concerned a plan to achieve any objectives. This is true to my knowledge.”
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, concur with Ryan Payne’s first statement, that it is true to my knowledge.
“2) There were no long range marksmen present before, during, or after the 12th, except those employed by the BLM, as confirmed via photographic evidence disseminated before the 12th. There were no counter-sniper teams or positions, nor was there any such plan for such. There were no qualified individuals or teams present to perform such a task, even if there had been a plan for it. Again, there was no such plan, and no orders were ever given in relation to such positions or teams, nor could there have been orders given, as there was no command authority. This is true to my knowledge.’
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, concur with Ryan Payne’s second statement, that it is true to my knowledge.
“3) There was no “Tactical Superiority”: any intent to achieve “Tactical Superiority”: and there was no plan concerning achieving “Tactical Superiority,” at any time before, during, or after the 12th, relating to the events which took place in and around Bunkerville, Nevada. There could be nothing other than speculation concerning any outcomes or circumstances pertaining to the 12th because there was neither a coordinated nor a centralized offensive entity, nor was there any intent to achieve or implement such.
Statements about what could or could not have happened if the BLM or Forrest Service Tactical Strike Force had opened fire on the innocent protesters they were aiming their AR-15 style rifles at, which included women and children, were, are, and could only ever be speculative and based on opinion, as there was no coordination nor planned response to that scenario. This is true to my knowledge.”
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, concur with Ryan Payne’s third statement, that it is true to my knowledge.
“4) There was no “command” authority, “on-the-ground commander,” or any agreement to give, to receive, or to follow orders from anyone in the Bundy family, nor myself, nor anyone present in Bunkerville, Nevada, before, or on the 12th of April, 2014. Neither myself nor anyone else, gave orders or instructions regarding fortified positions, or gaining tactical superiority, to anyone present on the 12th. There was certainly no agreement to commit a crime, or multiple crimes. This is true to my knowledge.”
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, concur with Ryan Payne’s fourth statement, that it is true to my Knowledge.
“5) As stated in (1) above, there was never a plan, nor was there any planning pertaining to the events which took place before and on the 12th of April, aside from being able to provide food and water to protesters. This is true to my knowledge.”
I, Schuyler P. Barbeau, concur with Ryan Payne’s fifth statement, that it is true to my knowledge.
I will further add that I, having been present in the Bunkerville, NV area and at Cliven Bundy’s house and ranch before, on, and after the “standoff” events on April 12th, 2014:
1) Did not participate in any conspiracy, confederation, or agreement to commit any offenses against the “United States” with anyone else present before, on, or after the 12th, nor was there anyone else participating in any conspiracy, confederation, or agreement to commit any offenses against the “United States” with Cliven Bundy, nor anyone else. There was no planning of anything to do anything. This is true to my knowledge.
2) There were only three groups of people in Bunkerville or at the Bundy’s Ranch before, on, and after the events of April 12th, 2014. There were protesters, people who supported the protesters and the security for Cliven and his family and everyone else. The first protested the heavy handed tactics of the Government, the support group handled food, water, medical, etc needs of the protest and security groups, and the security made sure Cliven and his family and everyone else stayed safe, not only from unlawful acts by the Government, but also from anyone else. No one who was there had any other purpose or intent then to exercise their/our 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and other rights secured by the United States Constitution and Bill Of Rights. This is true to my knowledge.
Where the Government came up with the idea of some big conspiracy to commit a bunch of crimes is beyond me, except that they speculated off of Ryan’s and other’s fabrications and false representations. The whole point of protesting a Government’s actions is to stop those actions from continuing UNTIL there is redress. Had all the protesters gone and stayed inside the “First Amendment Zones” they set up unconstitutionally, the BLM would have finished rounding up all of Cliven’s cattle, shipped them off, killed off even more than they did, packed up, and moved out of there and Cliven’s whole life would have been completely destroyed. Is he supposed to, are WE supposed to, just let the Government destroy him completely and then try to hash it out in court after he’s lost everything? He would have lost all his money, house, ranch, all his property, everything, and then you expect him to pay maybe hundreds of thousands of dollars to fight the big fight in court? For years? And probably never get redress or restored? No, I say, you assemble and stop the Government destruction until there is redress and you absolutely bear arms to protect yourself and others from this kind of tyranny. That’s exactly how our Founding Father did in the past and that’s exactly how our Founding Fathers wanted us to do it today. We The People are not to ever let the Federal Government just walk all over us. How come the Government can point their assault weapons at We The People and claim self-defense, but We The People can not point our guns at them in self-defense? We are just citizens trying to defend ourselves from tyranny. When I was in the Marine Corps (OOH RAH), we had to learn the four weapon safety rules. One is: Never point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot. We also have Rules of Engagement. Basically, we didn’t point our weapons at anybody unless they are an enemy combatant who has a weapon and is using it, or intends to use it against us. Our Law Enforcement is trained the same way and learns the four weapon safety rules. Does that mean that at the Bundy Ranch “standoff,” the BLM, Forrest Service, and whoever else was pointing their weapons at us were INTENDING to shoot us? Were we citizens enemy combatants to them? We were there to exercise our rights as citizens and people of this land. It seems they had a conspiracy, confederation, or agreement to kill enemy combatants.
Sincerely, Your Defender,
/s/ Schuyler P. Barbeau

Sally Jewell defends her position on Bundy Ranch and Malhuer Reserve. The statement by one of the governors that he didn't want the public lands turned over to the state because it would be to expensive to manage is misleading. If the state took the massive BLM army of employees over and continued current management practices it is conceivable the cost would be extremely high.
Prior to the early 1970's there was very little BLM presence in Nevada where 87% of the land is claimed by the federal gov. I never saw a BLM employee anywhere around our ranch, or Nye County while I was growing up.
The only improvements I have seen have been the building of drift fences to separate allotments and the fenceing of the highways to keep cattle off. I can't see any difference in the condition of the range now than during the 1950's and 60's.
The wild hourse and burro act has caused more damage to the land and to the animals than it has done good. That may be one of the biggest expenses besides the huge payroll and vehicle expenses the BLM has. The BLM has a huge office building in Reno, another in Battle Mointain and several smaller office buildings around the state. What do these people do besides figure out ways to make the cost of ranching so high it is no longer profitable?
The argument states can not afford to mange the land within thier borders doesn't hold water.
Jewell has no law enforcement authority on the public lands. She should have called the local sheriff who does have jurisdiction and let him agonize over what to do instead of laying awake at night.

Jewell explains decisions on Bundy, looks ahead to Trump

Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said this week that armed standoffs with "fringe" groups protesting federal land management led to the most "extraordinarily difficult" moments of her four years at the helm of the agency.
In a wide-ranging podcast interview with Outside Magazine, Jewell said the 2014 event at the Bundy family ranch in Nevada and last winter's Malheur National Wildlife Refuge occupation in Oregon led to sleepless nights.
Jewell said she agonized over what to do during the 2014 standoff over rancher Cliven Bundy's failure to pay fees for grazing on public lands. After an "almost all-nighter," Jewell said, she made the "very difficult — but I think the right decision — to pull our people out of harm's way, so that blood was not spilt."
"That was very difficult to do because we had court orders for Bundy to remove his cattle," she said.
Federal officials faced significant criticism for that decision, with many arguing that it emboldened Bundy and his supporters and directly led to the Malheur refuge standoff last winter.
Jewell said she was "involved every single day" during the 41-day Malheur occupation that ended Feb. 11.
She insisted that the event, led by Cliven's sons Ammon and Ryan Bundy, consisted of a "very small fringe group of people."
And, she said, they failed to meet their objective because they "did not reflect the values of the people of that community," which had a good working relationship with federal land management officials, including at the refuge.
"The underlying story," she said, "is that this was a small group of people that did not gain the support of the community because the land management agency — in this case, the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge — had been working for over a decade with members of the community on the plans for the refuge for the long term."
Jewell said that is a recipe for avoiding other similar conflicts in the future.
Federal officials, she said, should work to establish "trusting, personal relationships with individuals in those communities at every level of government."
Jewell also sought to rebuff a movement in the West, seeking to transfer federal lands to state or local control, that the Bundys are part of.
The former CEO of REI said local officials understand the complexities of land management in the West, as well as the strain such a takeover would put on already tight state budgets.
"When we engage with local communities and they recognize what federal land management looks like and what we do, that actually changes," she said. "So part of it is on us to communicate with the local people and local elected officials about what we do."
If states had control, they would likely either need to raise revenue through taxes to manage the land, or sell it off.
(What is there to manage? That land has been there millions of years and little has changed. Let the cattlemen and miners pay the state.)
"If people actually opened their eyes and understood it, they would appreciate that, as well," she said.
Jewell also mentioned a conversation she had with an unnamed Republican governor from a Western state. The governor, she said, told her he didn't want federal lands transferred to his state because of the enormous management expenses.
Looking to Trump
Jewell also expressed some optimism that some of the policies implemented during her four-year tenure would survive Republican President-elect Donald Trump's administration.
She pointed specifically to sweeping greater sage grouse conservation plans covering 67 million acres in 10 Western states that will affect how grazing and development can be carried out.
(Why all of a sudden are the sage grouse endangered?)
"That's not going to get rolled back," Jewell said. That policy is "common sense, and it's pragmatic."
She also highlighted a plan for 10 million acres of California desert that identified which areas are suitable for wind and solar energy development, and which aren't.
(Another federal boondoggle with negative income. Solyndra and Solar Reserve are shining examples)
"I'm optimistic that we've crafted a future that makes sense for business and what it make sense for business," she said. "I don't see it being in the best interest of politicians or Cabinet members to unwind that."
Jewell did express concern about climate change, and a hope that whoever has her job next will embrace her team's work on the issue.
She also implored environmental groups to be vocal during the Trump administration.
"If you're not at the table, you're on the menu," Jewell said. "So for people who care about environmental issues, you've got to be at the table, and you've got to be expressing your views to your elected officials."
Asked what's next for her after Trump takes office in January, Jewell said she plans to take a long road trip across the country with her husband back to her native Washington.
Choking back tears, Jewell said they had recently traded in their Toyota Prius for a Subaru Outback to get more ground clearance for exploring.
She said she needs to "rebalance" after the rigors of leading the Interior Department.
"Balance for me and for most of us," she said, "comes from Mother Nature."
"I'm going flat-out, and I have been for four years," she said. "So a break will be good. But I'm not done."
The western states don't need Sally Jewell's murdering management team.

Nevada Lands Council
Our Mission:
The Nevada Lands Council is a non-profit organization that was established to provide the resources necessary to secure control of federal public lands within the borders of Nevada by transferring their ownership and management to the state.
Our Goal:
To ensure that Nevadans, who know and truly care about our state, will have an opportunity to manage the land in order to provide:

HEALTHIER AIR, WATER, AND WILDLIFE
FEDERAL MANAGEMENT enlists burdensome and redundant processes that inhibit wildlife habitats and reduce air and water quality.
STATE MANAGEMENT would streamline processes that expedite measures to enhance wildlife populations and ensure healthy air and water quality.

Did You Know?
Currently, 87% of Nevada is controlled by the federal government meaning Nevadan's have little control of what happens within their own borders.
Nevada is the only state that currently has legislation (H.R. 1484) within the halls of the U.S. Congress that advocates a federal lands transfer.

"We're tired of being pistol-whipped by the bureaucrats and dry-gulched by federal regulations, nobody can convince me that we could not be better stewards of the land than that perfidious absentee landlord who resides along the Potomac." - Former Nevada Senator Norman Glaser, December 1980

What a day. I am feeling blessing beyond measure. But still asking Heavenly Father WHY? Why do we have to go through this? What must we learn from all this? How long are we going to have to continue living this nightmare.
This morning I got a call that my mom had been in a roll over accident. She is goiyng to be "OK" but she is really banged up, bruised and in a lot pain. It's a miracle she is with us tonight. As we were getting her all settled in at home we received a call that my dad had also had an accident in jail today. He fell really hard and is in a lot of pain they took him to the infirmary and they told him he was fine, gave him an aspirin and threw him back in his pod. He is not ok. He is A LOT of pain. My brother say that he can hardly move and is not ok. It's killing me that I can't be with him. I hate that my dad cant be here with my mom and it kills me that my mom can't be there for my dad. Please pray for my mom and dad they are in dire need of them tonight.
If possible please donate to carols PayPal. She doesn't have insurance and the medical bills and pilling high and her car is totaled.

Thanks you

I think this guy from Utah's email campaign will hit a dead end. I expect the court wil probably block those emails as spam.
I am wondering if there is a mechanism that we inhabitants of the states can use to file a demand in these Bundy actions, demanding the court prove they have jurisdiction because it affects each and every one of us and our rights.

PLEASE FLOOD JUDGE GLORIA NAVARRO OFFICE WITH LETTERS DEMANDING THE PRE TRIAL RELEASE OF THE PRISONERS.
I used the email address of her court deputy. I know of no other way to get these letters to her. She may not read them, but she will hear about them.
URGENT
Hon. Gloria Navarro
Chief Judge, US District Court
Attn: Aaron Blazevich
Aaron_Blazevich@nvd.uscourts.gov.
Your Honor:
I am writing on behalf of the Bundy family and other prisoners who are imprisoned without having been convicted of any crime.
I have met the Bundy family and I can attest to their integrity, their desire to do what is right and to contribute to society in a manner that is compliant with the law and with morality. I can testify that they are neither a flight risk nor are they a danger to a society. There is nothing in their past or in their present that even remotely indicates that they are a flight risk or a danger to society.
At the 2014 incident involving the BLM for which they are being charged, I was there and never witnessed any encouragement by anybody, much less the Bundys, advocating for bloodshed or for violence. Rather, they repeatedly searched for a peaceful solution and called upon God to protect all people, including the federal government employees. After the BLM withdrew, they left behind trucks, generators and other valuable equipment that were never vandalized in retaliation for the harm done by the BLM, instead, the valuables were safeguarded until the BLM returned to retrieve them.
I have researched for hundreds of hours the right to bail that goes back to the Magna Carta. While I am sure you will have a different viewpoint, I assert that the denial of bail is woefully and rampantly unconstitutional and not only illegal, but immoral.
The Bundys and other prisoners should be released pending trial, in compliance with a 500 year sacred doctrine of “presumption of innocence until proven guilty”. Pre trial detention is a punishment and to deny it as such is the same as Bill Clinton denying he had sex with Monica Lewinsky. It is this play on words that gives the American people a lack of confidence in the judges and courts of America.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Respectfully,
