Oregon: Cliven Bundy & Sons face multiple federal charges at Nevada

News From My Home State of Oregon. The "hits" just keep coming. Cliven Bundy, Ammon Bundy, his brother Ryan Bundy, Ryan Payne & Peter Santilli have all been charged in the armed take over of the Mahleur Nationa Wildlife Refuge. They're all sitting in an Oregon jail. Each has now been charged from the FBI with 16 counts after taking up arms against the federal government back in 2014 at Nevada. They're also charged with 5 counts of criminal forfeiture. If convicted, they have to hand over property profited by their crimes totaling $3 million. They would also be forced to hand over firearms used in 2014.

For 20 years, Cliven Bundy has built a militia against the federal government. He refused to get permits for letting his cattle graze on federal land. His grazing fees had risen to $1 million. His "beef" is with the bureau of land management & his supposed right to be a free American. Now, if convicted, he may spend the rest of his life in prison.

Shawna Cox who was one of the occupiers at the Refuge has filed a compliant against federal employees. She is seeking $666 billion & called her arrest as "The Works of the Devil." She was in the truck when Robert Finicum tried to escape police. He was shot & killed. Meanwhile, the Oregon state police board will investigate the actions of Grant County sheriff Glenn Palmer. He met with the occupiers twice & once got an autograph from two militia leaders. Public complaints have asked the police board to look into Palmer's part in the armed take over. He called Finicum's death an "Ambush" & seeks re-election. 

Ladies & gentleman, you can't write this stuff up.
