Shocking Allegations Show Harry Reid, Chinese Company Behind Nevada Ranch Standoff
Western Journalism ^ | April 2014 | B. Christopher Agee

The ranch, which has been in Cliven Bundy’s family for more than a century, is ground zero for a growing showdown between federal authorities and individual rights activists.

As a family in Clark County, Nev. continues to face an onslaught of heavily armed federal agents determined to kick them off of their ranch, reports have surfaced that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid might be behind the entire ordeal.

The ranch, which has been in Cliven Bundy’s family for more than a century, is ground zero for a growing showdown between federal authorities and individual rights activists. Despite attempting to silence protesters by limiting them to so-called “First Amendment areas,” law enforcement personnel, legislators, and militia members are heading to the site in droves to express their outrage over the Bureau of Land Management’s show of force.

In an apparent effort to cover its tracks, the BLM has reportedly removed documents from its website showing that the move to kick the Bundys and their cattle off of the land was at least in part due to the fact that their presence impeded development of solar energy on the land.

Wha................. hairy reid-iculous involved in some sort of scandalous activity? No way. Maybe it was his “artistic” grand-daughter using some of her “presents” to buy some stock in a solar company thereby turning 17K into a gazillons dollars to further her art “career”.

Actually, I think free Americans should start using the “shocking allegations” meme just like Democrats - It is the seriousness of the charge, not the truth of it.

I don’t really care whether it is 100% true or not. I KNOW there is always deceit, personal profit, power and control behind ANYTHING any Democrat does. So in this regard, “Let’s Roll with it.”

Reid should have been removed from office years ago.

Oh, I forgot! Only corrupt DEMOCRAT politicians are rewarded for their illegal actions. The the rest go to prison.

This guy is repulsive!

After watching this closely, I noticed a glaring problem with the BLM story. If this was a Federal court action, why wasn’t the Marshal Service in command and control? The courts do not use the BLM to enforce orders. Was Bundy served by Marshals before round up began? I think this was an illegal action and was all bluff by BLM. Just sayin.

Why the Chinese company tried to take the land using “dirty politics” instead of paying the Bundy family probably several million dollars for the land in a legal sale really bothers me. As such, this may seriously hurt the reputation of that company and that could really hurt its efforts to build solar power plants in the USA.

Surprising, but not shocking.

In fact, I would expect this.

I also expect that Mr. Eric the Black and congress will have no interest in this whatsoever.

Rustler gets caught; rustler gets hung from nearest tree. No burial, either.

Maybe the Bundy’s wouldn’t sell?

The property has been in the family for well over 100 years, them not wanting to sell it would make sense.....I mean, if that is what is going on here.

I agree. I think this was an illegal action and was all a thieving land grab (using BS tortoises as the excuse) by BLM executed on behalf of Harry Reid and the Chicoms—your love gods.

Does this land belong to Bundy or is he just leasing it for grazing rights from Clark County?

I can’t figure out the legalities here because on one hand I hear that this land has been in the Bundy family for over 100 years and then I hear he owes the feds over 1MM for leased grazing rights but Bundy then says any money he owes is to Clark County, Nev.

The land supposedly sold to the Chinese is South West of Las Vegas, Bundy’s ranch is North East of Las Vegas. About 140 miles apart and on opposite sides of the state.

Lots of Alex Jones sources, claims stuff was removed from BLM’s website.

As much as I detest Reid, the sources on this story have been very thin. I hate when we are made to look like fools by Alex Jones “MSU”. Making __ Up.

Can anyone show me that Bundy’s grazing lease is being sought for a solar farm?

I’m aware of Reid’s protege is up for confirmation or has been confirmed BLM chief.

Would be nice for some Senator to bring this up on the floor....

This is yet another reason to question if ANY of the constitutional conservatives are really on our side. This is clearly a situation where ranchers, who feed this nation, have been driven off the lands they've had access to over a century, so that only one remains. It should CLEARLY be a case where everyone who supports the people's historic rights would've been out there with him. Instead, they held back. Why has NO ONE connected the dots that the tortoise is not endangered and this is a "green" energy scheme to benefit Reid's family? There's no question. As soon as those family members were tasered and assualted, the BLM stormtroopers belonged in jail.

And what about self-determination, all over the world? Cruz and buddies are still banging the globalist wardrums, aren't they, even though it's very clear how eastern Ukraine feels. And why are none of those darn constitutional conservatives saying why can't armed agents of the US be on our border with Mexico protecting US citizens instead of assaulting us and stealing our cattle?

I might be down to only trusting Jeff Sessions. And yeah, as soon as the BLM assaulted citizens, they assaulted all of us.

My understanding is that it wasn't directly for a solar farm, but for an environmental offset that the solar farm required. As long as the cattle were there, it couldn't be used as an environmental offset.
