The government ought to be paying the farmers and helping those raise the cattle and food....Not punishing them and charging them.
This destruction of his water towers and troughs reminds me of Sherman and the burning of Atlanta - scorched earth destruction. This is what the feds of capable of - destroy a person’s livelihood completely - I wonder if they killed the dogs as I’m sure the rancher has some.
The government wants that land for its own purposes. Wiping out the Ranchers is vital to their plans, whatever they may be. We are not being told why the government is doing this...the tortoise story is BS and everybody knows it. The tortoises thrive when there are cattle pooping on the ground, and the government is slaughtering all the tortoises from a preserve they are closing.
