Recently freed rancher Cliven Bundy sues Nevada, Clark County
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | January 26, 2018 | David Ferrara

Lifelong Southern Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, recently cleared of federal charges and freed from jail after nearly two years, has turned his sights on state and county government.

In a lawsuit filed Thursday in Clark County District Court, Bundy claimed that former resident Barack Obama’s late 2016 establishment of Gold Butte National Monument, which occurred while the rancher was in federal custody, was “as illegal as it is unlawful” and would preclude him from continuing to function on his land and destroy his livelihood.

...

“Recognizing that the land is not owned by the United States of America, (Bundy) has avoided erroneously giving money to an entity which does not actually own theland and has been careful not to give money erroneously to a stranger to the land,” according to the rancher’s lawsuit. “Thus, there is an actual, significant legal controversy of great consequence not only to petitioner in terms of as to whom has ownership and jurisdiction of the land but to People of Nevada and Clark county, the rightful owners of Nevada land.”

The complaint was filed by attorney Kelsey Bernstein of Las Vegas and Larry Klayman, a Washington, D.C., lawyer who was blocked from joining Bundy’s criminal defense team by U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro.

...

Oregon lawsuit.

The family of an Arizona rancher who was killed by police during the armed occupation of a national wildlife refuge in Oregon alleged in a U.S. lawsuit Friday that he was “deliberately executed by a preplanned government ambush.”

The wrongful-death lawsuit filed in Portland on the second anniversary of Robert “LaVoy” Finicum’s death seeks at least $5 million in damages for his widow and each of their 12 children.

The United States is listed as a defendant, along with the FBI, Oregon State Police, Gov. Kate Brown and others.

I hope they all get double what they are seeking. It’s just too bad they can’t get part of it from that a$$hole Mormon RAT Bast@rd Harry Reid.

And no crap about adding in Mormon, because sadly I am a non-practicing member of same, and I know the truth about them!

“Where is ole Harryass Reid?”

I guess he’s in Las Vegas. I do know he moved into town from his place in Searchlight. I thought I’d read where he moved to Henderson.
