The Bureau of Land Management is a ‘gestapo’ according to officials who testified at a House hearing yesterday.
We have the beginnings of gestapos in every government agency and they are growing in power under the perceived authority of the President of the United States who rules this country via executive orders and “guidance” memos without any congressional oversight. He is militarizing his executive branch agencies and letting them run roughshod over citizens largely without restraint and supervision. They can’t be fired as we know.
One of the agencies that has become militarized and which has gone rogue is the Bureau of Land Management.
A hearing in the House on July 24th exposed a dangerous and persistent threat to our nation coming from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) which is allegedly intimidating citizens, threatening their rights, and creating a hostile environment.
At the hearing this week, the following was uncovered: •BLM has threatened witnesses to give up their property rights. •Overreaching and malicious employee behavior goes without retribution. •BLM does not care about any authority by law enforcement and will not coordinate with them. “BLM law enforcement in Garfield County is totally uncooperative and unresponsive,” Garfield County Commissioner Leland Pollock said in written testimony. “Dispatchers have been rebuffed so many times by BLM agents that the county only contacts them as a last resort and with little hope for assistance.” Law enforcement have been told BLM doesn’t care about any authority they think they have. •BLM’s Chief of Law Enforcement overrides State Directors and costs counties a fortune. •BLM is stealing land and buying up land under the endangered species act which is being abused and misinterpreted deliberately.

Obama.
No need to say more.
(:
That sounds great. But, it’ll never happen as long as the Socialists are in charge :(
They should all be fired. If any are in the reserves, court martialed.
Yeah, the ghost of old Joe lives on the the lefist vermin that rule us.
The BLM and the NFS get away with their land grab schemes because they are allowed to get away with it, through government fear and intimidation tactics.
Have enough “Bundy Ranch” moments, and the feds will back off, or suffer the consequences.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?”
Remember, it was the FDR communists that referred to him as “Uncle Joe”.
Just as every group of oppressed people in history has learned, waiting until the oppression becomes overwhelming means it can never be removed peacefully...
"A thousand years" is what was foretold...Now it is a reality...
“Law enforcement have been told BLM doesn’t care about any authority they think they have.”
Law enforcement should give the BLM jackboots an “attitude adjustment.” Arrest the rogue BLM types at gunpoint, take them to jail, strip search them, make them wear orange jumpsuits, lock them up pending trial.
Rinse and repeat.
BLM ‘went rogue’ a long time ago, as did the USFS.
I had the privilege of experiencing a Forest Service SWAT team back in 1988 over some mining claims. They could have resolved the problem with a letter or a visit by one Ranger with a clipboard, instead of 27 men with automatic weapons.
But they chose to do it the other way, costing the Taxpayers millions, and me my respect for the Federal government.
The EPA, IRS, Department of Education etc SWAT teams, are kinda new, but Jackbooted Federal agencies are hardly an 0bama innovation.
“They can’t be fired as we know.”
They can however vanish without a trace.
Yeah, all the ills that affect this country, society, and culture, took foothold during the reign of FDR.
I’ll vote for whichever candidate promises that his wife will only make appearances at society events.
The evil of the activist ‘first lady’ started with ELEANOR. (Apologies to the Turtles)
Time for a reset/flush.
Must-Read BUMP
They were all armed long before Obama came into office.
" We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded." - Barack Obama
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” — Alexandr Solzhenitsyn
In 2016, we need any GOP candidate to state that he will disarm all agencies that are not associated with law enforcement. In other words if the BLM, IRS, NEA, EPA etc. need enforcement they rely on the FBI or Secret Service. Also the BATFE should be incorporated into the FBI. Homeland Security and TSA should only be information gathering entities with the enforcement left to the FBI and SS. I’m also in favor of the FBI and SS being taken out of the executive branch and being assigned jointly to the three branches.
They should be either fired or in the near future they will be fired on. It is inevitable
Here is our fate, do not let the title of this link fool you. It all ties together.
They talk very little about gold and silver. they talk about what is happening right now. You will see the truth.
