When there are illegal and nefarious activities abounding, there is a wise adage that says to “follow the money.” That is often a reasonable path to discover the true motive for an action or event that may seem to defy a line of clear logic. One of the most glaring examples is the out-of-proportion bullying by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) as it has sent huge forces of armed federal agents to force farmers and ranchers off of remote parcels of land in Nevada and Oregon.
In the case of Cliven Bundy, the agency started grabbing cattle from the rancher because of a disputed fee for grazing his cattle on “federal land” in Nevada. There is a very clear argument to be made that the federal government is not constitutionally permitted to “own” huge parcels of the United States, which in the case of Nevada amounts to almost 80% of the entire state land mass. But there are no doubt thousands of ranchers also running their cattle on federal land for grazing purposes, and the question arises regarding why the heavy hand of the federal government would come down on this one elderly rancher in Nevada. Just follow the money.
In the protest that blew up in January of this year, the conflict had to do with a trumped up arson charge against two ranchers who had burned some of their ranch to clear weeds to make it more productive. The fire spread to “federal lands,” and though the ranchers extinguished the fire without help, and the land, including the federal land, is now more productive than ever, the government insisted on jailing the two ranchers for five years. The ensuing protest by other ranchers led to the death of one of the rancher leaders caused by federal or state agents, with the video of the death showing that it was simply an execution. Once again, the question is why this was a cause for which the government was willing to murder a citizen? The answer once again is to “follow the money.”

ARREST HARRY REID NOW!
This guy has got some fucking nerve!
Can’t wait until he is voted out!
No more establishment thugs!
VOTE TRUMP
By the People and For the People
Stop ole happy Harry cold.
Feds grabbed about 60% of land all along the west. Theyre stopping Americans use of the land but are leasing it to foreign companies to rape and pillage our resources. McCain tried in AZ but failed to take Native American land. He continues to try though. The last veteran bill that did not pass was because they put this land grab in it. So every bodies ticked because the veteran bill didn’t pass. They were told to present a clean bill which they have yet to do. I’m sure it’s being done in every state. You can go on the gov BLM site and they have a map of what they’ve taken over. You are also right that the Feds aren’t suppose to own land. It’s in the constitution. Very specific.
KARMA will deal him a hand he won’t like !!
Harry Reid is a Crooked SOB, Another POC Cheating Politician who should be in Jail in a True Just Society.
The saudi want to buy the land for its fresh water and Reids son is an agent working the deal and stands to make millions. There is not a single ethical honest Democrat in this country .
Our goverment takes from and persecutes our Ranchers and Farmers and praises our welfare-bound illegals
Can’t wait until trump puts Reed in Jail and releases Bundy.
We need to investigate every thing Harry Reid has ever been involved in.
