...Bundy naturally just disavowed the militia movement in solidarity with the migrant caravan, suggested that nationalism is actually the opposite of patriotism, and said that Trump’s America resembles nothing so much as 1930s Germany.
Last week, Bundy posted a video to Facebook in which he criticized President Trump for demonizing the Central American migrants who were traveling in a caravan to seek asylum in the United States.
“To group them all up like, frankly, our president has done — you know, trying to speak respectfully — but he has basically called them all criminals and said they’re not coming in here,” Bundy observed. “What about individuals, those who have come for reasons of need for their families, you know, the fathers and mothers and children that come here and were willing to go through the process to apply for asylum so they can come into this country and benefit from not having to be oppressed continually?”
Bundy went on to observe that “faith is the opposite of fear” and that “we have been asked by God to help, to be welcoming, to assist strangers, to not vex them.” He also provided his viewers with a quick fact-check of the president’s claims that liberal billionaire George Soros had orchestrated the caravan, and that there were terrorists embedded among the migrants.
Bizarrely, the following that Bundy had amassed by threatening insurrectionary violence against Barack Obama’s government did not take kindly to his call for solidarity with the oppressed of Central America.
“It’s like being in a room full of people in here, trying to teach, and no one is listening,” Bundy told BuzzFeed News this week. “The vast majority seemed to hang on to what seemed like hate, and fear, and almost warmongering, and I don’t want to associate myself with warmongers.”

Haiku attempt?
Is he a Mormon?
I was not aware of that. But what I don’t know about Ammon Bundy would fill a big book. What I know about him is finite.
thanks
.
Bundy is way off, but I can appreciate how what he has been put through can warp his view.
Why didn’t Trump immediately release all of those patriots who defended property rights under the Guadalupe Hidalgo treaty?
The BLM must be completely disbanded, and Judge Navarro must be removed from office and prosecuted for conspiring with the Uranium thieves.
I think he’s one of those guys who hates whichever administration is in power.
.
You’re deeply confused!
The US gov owns ZERO surface rights in the west!
Read the treaty and study the history before shooting your mouth off.
.
.
You’re another one that needs to read up and grab reality!
Bundy and Finicum did absolutely nothing wrong.
Bundy has the law going for him, if our government should ever embrace it.
Has anyone asked if he’s a relation to Ted?

>> “I think he’s one of those guys who hates whichever administration is in power.” <<
Ranchers can’t help but get that way after being subjected to the unconstitutional thuggery of the US gov.
This kind of thing is precisely why I ditched libertarianism years ago.

Like you’re related to Michael (Michelle) Obama?
.
Yea, right, hard working fools must all be kooks!
No wonder we’re losing our freedoms so fast.
Learn to do the Goose Step soon!

Leased land?
He owns the surface rights 100% under the treaty.
I’m really surprised.
.
>> “Bundy is an opportunist in that all he cares about is himself.” <<
You know this how?
His family has owned the surface of this land for 150 years or more.
The labor to run the ranch has been 100% US citizens, mostly family.
.
So, family ranching is all circus to you?
Lets turn the BLM thugs loose on you, and see what you’ll agree to!
Came close,ya Think?
