Here is how Rory "thanked" the BLM for carrying out the task of saving the desert tortoises that were being killed off by the Feds for overpopulation in the grazing areas:

...I think that the BLM lost. The BLM shouldn't have started this if they couldn't develop a plan to finish it successfully. Now I can understand why they suspended the operation. No trespass cow is worth somebody getting hurt. But the First Amendment zones they created were ridiculous. Then tried to block off too large a piece of land.... I don't think there is any way to look at this and say they were a winner here. They were a loser.

kinda makes that theory that they wanted the BLM guys to be slaughtered make sense...

[HOLLYWOOD]

The "Searchlight" is focused on Rory Reid... the scumbag is just trying to save face in front of the public. He and his racketeering father were caught red handed now they are using every statement to take the focus off themselves and put it everywhere else. Typical political rhetoric and deception of these RICO politicians.

BTW... this goes far beyond the Bundy ranch, this has to do with with all the other ranchers' lands stolen, there are many other US federal welfare grants to energy and green-renewal graft. 2001 Harry Reid is quoted about his hometown, Searchlight, NV, Hillary Clinton, the Chinese, Duke Energy... This goes further back to 1993 when Bill Clinton started all these federal agencies and empowering them.

The most recent is the First Solar, Indian-Tribal Oligarchy-campaign donations, Los Angeles county energy sucking politicians, land development, Mud River/flat/Lake Meade/etc.

Ben Swann needs to take this on, investigate the Racketeering, Influence, Corruption, and Organized Crime of multiple government officials and agencies over the past 2 decades. C-SPAN's Washington Journal hosted a progressive reporter from the Las Vegas Sun(origianlly from Chicago) and the amount of deception and misinformation was incredible...

Ben Swann... go to bat.

Think about the timeline. For over twenty years, they never actively pursued Bundy in such an aggressive fashion. The only logical conclusion being that 'Someone' wants this land NOW. If they wanted to, they could simply wait for Bundy to expire and take their lost fees from the transfer of his estate.

I think Nancy Pelosi and family, did something similar with land deals, then pumping the property values after using federal dollars/grants to increase the value of property. They're all profitting by campaign donations or cleverly crafted deals that the politicians can profit.

July 2012: (http://dailycaller.com/2014/02/10/center-for-american-progress-first-solar-green-relationship/)The First Solar Three Billion Dollar Swindle

Last week (http://finance.townhall.com/columnists/maritanoon/2012/07/14/senator_harry_reids_part_in_greenenergy_cronycorru ption), we wrapped up Senator Harry Reid’s connection to four firms —representing billions in taxpayer money—also part of the green-energy, crony-corruption story. Three of the four are in Reid’s home state: Nevada Geothermal, Ormat Nevada, and SolarReserve; while both SolarReserve and BrightSource Energy have multiple and significant ties to the President.

Now, we move on to the next three of our Special Seven series––those that received the Department of Energy loans (even though the companies were rated as “non-investment” grade) and grants, as a part of the stimulus spending spree. Additionally, these seven companies received “special” Department of Interior (http://www.doi.gov/budget/appropriations/2011/highlights/upload/New-Energy-Frontier.pdf) (DOI) treatment through a March 11, 2009 Secretarial Order, which the Washington Free Beacon (http://freebeacon.com/interior-motives/) described as a means “To fast track the siting of renewable energy projects on public lands managed by the agency.”

Close ties leave Center for American Progress (CAP), First Solar seeing green
(http://dailycaller.com/2014/02/10/center-for-american-progress-first-solar-green-relationship/)
First Solar has been a large beneficiary of federal government largess, receiving billions of taxpayer dollars to build solar installations and sell panels abroad. It is not only listed as a CAP donor, but has also been listed as a client (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/aug/21/undersecretary-nominee-in-state-dept-returns-to-re/?page=all) of the Albright Stonebridge Group (ASG) in 2011 — a lobbying firm founded by former Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. ASG is also listed as a CAP donor.
The solar company was listed as a member of CAP’s Business Alliance in 2012 (http://www.thenation.com/sites/default/files/user/20/American_Progressive_Business_large2.png). As a CAP Business Alliance member, First Solar would have gotten several perks like invitations to “VIP events with leaders from government, business, and academia.”
Coincidentally, Export-Import Bank President Fred Hochberg has spoken annually at CAP since 2011 — the same year First Solar got its loan. It is unknown whether the solar company was also a CAP donor at the time.
When Hochberg spoke at the progressive think tank in 2012 (http://www.americanprogress.org/events/2012/06/25/17243/ex-im-chief-hochberg-on-u-s-export-finance-strategy-amid-the-emergence-of-state-driven-capitalism/), he mentioned that Alice Albright was in attendance — Madeleine Albright’s daughter and the Ex-Im’s chief operating officer from 2009 to 2013. Hochberg spoke on June 25 and First Solar was awarded $57.3 million (http://www.exim.gov/newsandevents/releases/2012/Ex-Im-Approves-57-3-Million-in-Financing-for-Renewable-Energy-Exports-to-India.cfm) in financing. The Ex-Im head also hailed CAP founder John Podesta. Podesta was White House chief of staff under President Clinton. More notably, Podesta was the chair of President Obama’s transition team in 2008 where he and Hochberg would have worked together.


We do know Nancy Pelosi funnel Federal cash to her relatives in Solar/Green renewable contracts...


James McDermott—SolarReserve board member (http://www.solarreserve.com/who-we-are/board/) James McDermott is also a Managing Director with U.S. Renewables Group. He contributed $61,500 to various Democratic (http://dailycaller.com/2011/09/29/more-solar-companies-led-by-democratic-donors-received-federal-loan-guarantees/2/) campaigns since 2008, including $30,800 to Obama’s presidential election campaign. U.S Renewable Energy Group has ties with Senator Harry Reid.

First Solar executives, including Maja Wessels, the company’s director of public affairs, and Kathleen Weiss, the company’s lobbyist, met with administration officials, including Heather Zichal (http://topics.bloomberg.com/heather-zichal/), an Obama adviser, before the loan guarantees were announced, White House visitor’s logs show.
Rob Gillette, First Solar’s chief executive officer until he was ousted in October, attended a White House state dinner for German Chancellor Angela Merkel (http://topics.bloomberg.com/angela-merkel/) on June 7, the records show. The company operates a manufacturing plant in Germany (http://topics.bloomberg.com/germany/).

In Sunday’s column, the following thumbnail was presented: “SolarReserve’s Crescent Dunes (http://www.solarreserve.com/what-we-do/csp-projects/crescent-dunes/) project is a solar thermal power tower plant utilizing the advanced molten salt power tower technology with integrated storage located in Tonopah, NV. The company's Fitch rating is BB, yet in September 2011, it was the recipient of $737 million (https://lpo.energy.gov/?projects=solarreserve-llc-crescent-dunes) in DOE loan guarantees. Obama’s law school buddy and 2008 Obama campaign bundler, Michael Froman, was managing director of alternative investments at Citigroup—which became a major investor (http://www.randpaul2010.com/2012/01/senator-paul-amendment-bars-revolving-door-corruption-in-federal-loans/) in SolarReserve. Froman currently serves on the White House staff (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/michael-froman/gIQA3Rcv9O_topic.html). Additionally, other high profile Democrats are involved with SolarReserve.”

Perhaps they will just hire some Blackwatter goons,, or some Cartel Gunmen next time.

On one hand I am glad that this confrontation ended with no bloodshed,, and on the other I wish the defeat was more decisive and costly.
