OREGON STANDOFF LATEST: PATRIOTS RALLY, FBI TIGHTENS NOOSE, NEW ACCOUNT OF LAVOY FINICUM SHOOTING
2/1/2016 | Self

The 'Call to Action' from the Pacific Patriots Network is expected to reach full fruition today as supporters of the farmers and ranchers of Harney County arrive in the largest numbers yet.

A rally is being held in Burns to tell the FBI to get out and call for the resignation of local officials like Sheriff Dave Ward and Judge Stephen Grasty, who are seen by locals as the enablers of the federal land control program.

Later this year if a 'national monument' is declared on federal land in Harney County as is planned, some 400 ranchers stand to be wiped out.

There is deep anger over the killing of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum last Tuesday.

Shawna Cox was one of those arrested at the roadblock and was in the vehicle with LaVoy Finicum.

Shortly after her release from jail on Saturday, she gave for the first time her account of what happened on the "Free Capitalist Radio" broadcast.

Cox agreed with the account of Victoria Sharp, also in the vehicle but not arrested, that law enforcement used hundreds of rounds of ammunition when they shot Finicum.

And what about the situation at the refuge itself where the occupation began over four weeks ago (Saturday January 2nd).

"OregonLive" published a story last night headlined: "Uncertainty builds after last occupiers fall silent online".

Most of the communications channels for the four people have fallen silent.

What's next for the four people still there (Sean Anderson, Sandy Anderson, David Fry and Jeff Banta)?

The jailed Ammon Bundy has called on those remaining to leave, his lawyer says that's all he can do.

The four themselves are fearful of an FBI doublecross, as happened with others who walked out of the refuge earlier.

Convoys of law enforcement regularly roll in and out of the blockade six miles from the refuge including armored vehicles. "Shift Changes" no doubt in the siege that continues and the standoff that continues, its not over yet, in Oregon.

Some have said that Bundy Ranch was part of a Harry Reid land deal with the Chinese. They want it for a solar farm or something. I remember there was a Nevada/Utah land surveyor on the Bundy threads back then who pulled up all the land transactions in the area and a ton of the ranches around Bunkerville had been bought/stolen by Harry Reid and his sons.

So it was the same situation, different crooks.

“Hopefully we can get someone with balls to save us.”

Don’t take this as critical, it’s not. We are on the same side. But consider this:

We are Americans. We don’t need anyone to save us other than Christ himself. In earthly matters, we save ourselves and each other.

No politician will save us, we just need one that will restore the Government to it’s constitutional limits.

Trump ain’t the guy, he doesn’t have those principles to apply to circumstance. He’s a hell of a negotiator, but what is he negotiating and in who’s interest?

People are latching on to him because they think they know what they are getting with him, imperfect as he is. This is because we have essentially been abused by our own representatives and are clinging to anything that we think will lesson the abuse. Trump is running to be our pimp.
