Cliven Bundy will be held accountable, Interior secretary says
The Hill ^ | 6/25/15 | Timothy Cama

Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy will be held accountable for the federal land grazing fees and penalties he owes, a top federal official said.

Bundy became a national figure in April 2014 when he and scores of supporters got into an armed standoff with federal law enforcement officers over his cattle’s years of alleged unpaid grazing on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property.

Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, whose department includes the BLM, says Bundy will eventually have to answer for what he owes the federal government, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

“Cliven Bundy has had multiple court orders to remove his cattle from federal public lands and he has not paid his grazing fees and he has not abided by the law,” Jewell told the Review-Journal Wednesday on a visit to Incline Village, Nev., where she spoke at a Western Governors’ Association event.

“We will continue to pursue that,” she said.

Once more the government is determined to create a situation much like Ruby Ridge or Waco.

These guys simply cannot grasp what a bunch of storm-troopers they come off like.

What’s more, they couldn’t care less. In fact, I think the storm-trooper wanna-bes among them relish the role.

...

What if the Interior department erased all their emails and computer fails related to Bundy?

It is interesting the accelerated rate at which it is taking place. The snowball seems to be building speed and size.

“Seen it coming on for years.....it’s on top of us now.”

The undeniable truth.

I’m still surprised how quickly we were dismantled over the last 6-9 months. I thought the Republican majority we sent to Congress in November would AT LEAST slow it down, if not stop and reverse our slide.

But the plot to fundamentally transform us only accelerated. How far down the rabbit hole we go only Valerie knows for sure.

The seeds of this collapse started in the 60s. I suspect the nation will break apart at some point in the near future. Certainly anyone under 35 will live to see this come about.

Liberalism is in the middle of a psychotic break with reality. This “court” is about to elevate gay sex to the same status as marriage....the place where we create family & memory & culture.

The BLM says he owes more than $1 million.

Seems odd the government is so consumed by this, using all these resources. Illegal aliens cost us that much every single hour in unpaid medical expenses alone. And then they're provided tax payer funded prizes and gifts.

The guy is a freeloader.

People are right to ask: Of all the freeloaders in the US, why has the government chosen this one in particular?

But he's still a freeloader and a crackpot.

Everyone needs to be held accountable, including bureaucrats.

Typical Left-tard foreign banker scum, worked for a bunch of banks, then took over REI. Big Team Jackass campaign contributor. Lives in Seattle.

Here's another article I found about her:

Who is Sally Jewell? or... What could possibly go wrong?

You might not see this bit of background [on our new Secretary of the Interior] in the mainstream media, as it comes from Michelle Malkin (Jewish World Review, May 18, 2011):

As I've documented since last fall, waiver-mania started with McDonald's and Jack in the Box; spread to Dish Networks, hair salon chain Regis Corp and resort giant Universal Orlando; took hold among every major Big Labor organization from the AFL-CIO to the CWA to the SEIU; roped in the nationalized health care promoters at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (whose board of trustees includes health care czar Nancy Ann DeParle); and is now gripping entire states (Maine, New Hampshire and Nevada all recently got in on the act).

The latest to catch the waive? West Coast liberals.

[....]

Another noteworthy waiver winner: Seattle-based REI. The trendy Pacific Northwest outdoor equipment retailer's progressive CEO and Democratic campaign donor, Sally Jewell, appeared with President Obama in 2009 to tout White House health care reform initiatives. Two years later, REI snagged a waiver to protect the health benefits of a whopping 1,180 workers from the very tentacles of the big government bureaucrats Jewell embraced at Obama's roundtable.

Cause the Chinese stopped buying their debt notes. They were one of the last big ones. They can only keep buying debt notes with debt for so long. Most of the world’s population wants these bastards gone. They pissed away the gift their parents had won. Sole super power status and the world’s reserve currency.

Never happen. Al has pigment protection, Clive does not.
