Interesting case. I have said all along that Bundy is not a good poster boy choice for this fight but he is what we have. Seems like there are only three ways out.

1. BLM gives in. (not happening).
2. Negotiated settlement of some kind. (Not likely)
3. Higher court gets involved. (Settled law, again not likely)

They might just back off for another 10 years and wait him out. I think Korn whatever his name is, may have been trying to do a triumphal entry into his newly confirmed position, while appeasing the high dollar donors of the Center for Biological Diversity and it blew up in his face.

Kornhead is a politician and a bureaucrat, which are chickensh*ts by nature. They thrive on admiration and shrink from approbation. He’s very likely to just lay low for a very long while. Especially since he’s really a political appointee and not career BLM. He’s gonna need time to consolidate his position after being embarrassed nationally.

Unless there is some unknown factor that makes getting the cows off an urgent matter, they may return to the previous benign neglect of the last 20 years.
