**U.S. District Judge Anna J. Brown told him that there was a U.S. Marshal’s hold on him from a pending federal indictment in Nevada.”No, he’s released on these charges. He’s acquitted. Nevada doesn’t have jurisdiction,” Mumford yelled, standing before the judge. “If there’s a detainer, show me.””Mr. Mumford, you really need to never yell at me now or never again,” the judge responded.Brown told Mumford that she’s releasing Bundy on all federal holds in the Oregon case, but he’ll have to take up any questions about the federal holds from the Nevada case with the U.S. Marshals Service.”If they want him, they know where to find him,” Mumford told the judge. “I don’t see any paper proving their authority to hold him.”Suddenly, a group of about six to seven U.S. Marshals, who had been either standing or seated around the perimeter of the courtroom, slowly moved in and surrounded Mumford at his defense table. The judge directed them to move back but moments later, the marshals grabbed onto him.

Aftermath Harney County Meeting 1-19-2016 Message to the People from Researcher

From Cyrellys to the People – Harney County Meeting Clarification; it IS a National Problem.

Cyrellys Geibhendach.  I have now viewed several versions of the video concerning the meeting last night in Harney Co Burns OR regarding the Ammon Bundy group and the Hammonds situation, land grabs and corruption. It seems to me, as a concerned researcher and frequent radio guest, that the evidence of the national scope of the land grabbing is not reaching the citizens on the ground living in Harney Co and Burns. While I seen some heartfelt concern from the community for the welfare of their community, the whole came across as extreme PROVINCIALISM. Provincialism is a noun, defined as:

Provincialism is the state of having concern for purely local matters, or having a narrow outlook.

An
example of provincialism is being concerned with only one’s town, as
opposed to surrounding communities or other countries as well.
Read more at http://www.yourdictionary.com/…

This is very concerning because the problem here IS a national one; harney county is not the only county in America experiencing the victimization involving the siphoning of land to securitize the NATIONAL DEBT to our creditors while lining the pockets of the corrupt officials involved.

While I don’t agree with what Ammon did, I do recognize his actions have finally broken the log-jam on awareness about the use of Agenda 21 to clear lands in the west and compensate for what we’ve learned is a failure of the federal government to pay creditors like China. China who has been caught openly talking about COLONIZING the western United States lands that two years ago they had representatives quietly inspecting! That’s not stirring the pot. It commonly known fact in the Liberty Community which the provincial communities of America who just desire ‘normalcy’ and all the bias that goes with it, apparently DON’T KNOW.

Ignorance is one of the most solvable problems in all of life and yet it is our greatest nemesis in this paradigm – a problem we have not yet mastered on the local level. I ask, do we still have time to solve this problem and apply solutions that don’t involve violence against a eugenic culture that also openly talks about population reduction and population stabilization? I personally do not know. Communities like Burns Or are many. They simply have never been exposed to the proof and its supporting information. They have not been exposed to the patterns of the clandestine activities to reform American culture, sentiments, and understanding. They barely understand that there is something inherently wrong with Common Core.

I know what many in the liberty community are thinking right now after this meeting last night in Burns OR. It is why should we continue to stand against this tyranny and be the buffer of the provincialism afflicting the roots of America. We know this provincialism has been carefully fostered to keep everyone asleep and oblivious to the scope of what has been going on in their name in the shadows. The people in the liberty community are probably asking themselves why should we continue to put our lives and futures on the line on the behalf of a nation that doesn’t care about their nation’s survival as a Constitutional Republic. Who patently don’t self-educate and who routinely fall for emotional intrusions to the perceptions designed to keep them asleep? Why should we defend them still?

The answer to that is if we don’t, no one will. And without EVERY American, no one left behind, we no longer have a nation. We no longer have our due diligence. We no longer have a mutual collective soul. We become balkinized like Europe who cannot defend their nations from an obvious invasion from the Middle East. Now if we can’t do this, we will not be able to defend ourselves from that SAME invasion that is being brought here by our national leaders in DC. And we will not be able to defend ourselves from the depopulation advocates in high places in government, academia, medicine, and media. It starts here folks.

We must continue to say to the tyranny, “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!”

Someone asked me this morning, “do you see the size of the can holding the worms of the paradigm?”

I said “yes, yes I do.  IT runs across the whole nation and around the planet beyond — clear to the top of every structure of governance, this NWO reformation.  This is a national issue as I said this land issue in Harney is a channel through the paradigm and a place where the nation as a whole can hit home – respond effectively against the NWO.  There is so little opportunity left and I am VERY concerned about how the Liberty Community and national militias are going to take this lack of understanding in Harney Co.  Peole believe what they see and if they don’t see the other side or HEAR it loud and clear, they believe what there is, even if it is not truth.”

Folks we have a chance to carry this break in the log-jam.  However we’re on the verge of losing that break because people are either too busy or fear to be televised or don’t think they can or have an obligation to stand up.

So few realize this is a NATIONAL ISSUE.  This siphoning of lands is happening EVERYWHERE in the nation!  And the debt and the destruction of the nation from within is NOT going to go away if we allow ourselves to just “get on with life”.  In fact, just ‘getting on with your lives,” is the fastest way to affirm those behind the scenes in high places of power to take what little you still possess, hand it off to foreign players, and finish the set up to depopulation.

You say it can’t happen here.  I’m telling all of you whether you are liberty community or some other person, that it IS HAPPENING HERE.  And if you allow this deconstruction of our nation to continue don’t you DARE EVER AGAIN criticize the GERMANS or the RUSSIANS for standing passively by while their nations were taken to their knees and so many were loaded onto trains to the camps.

GET OFF YOUR KNEES NOW.

Cyrellys, Admin, Manticore Group

If a government is operating outside its own law it is a criminal government.

It takes a breed of outlaw to force our government to get back within the law.

no conformity, no suppression…

Power resides where men believe it resides; its a trick; a shadow on the wall.  And a very small man can cast a very large shadow.

Bundy Ranch
Please help us Share Clivens Message – Gray 

August 6, 2014
To Sheriff Doug Gillespie, Clark County Nevada Sheriff’s Department,
In a recent press conference, you mentioned 1) the BLM lied to you and 2) Bundy brought armed men to the ranch for protection.
While I can’t speak to the validity of your first claim, we unequivocally take issue with the second.  We never asked for armed men to come to our aid.  In fact, everyone who arrived at the Bundy ranch (men, women, armed & unarmed) voluntarily came to support the constitutional rights that you failed to defend.  Had you not neglected your duty to defend our rights, the rights of the very people for whom you swore a solemn oath to defend, there never would have been a standoff in the first place.

So while you chastise my family and pontificate about how “Bundy should be held accountable for crossing the line”, let it be known that the responsibility for this escalation rests primarily at the doorstep of the Clark County Sheriff’s office.

Please allow me a moment to remind you of some of the history leading up to that day:
  • Hundreds of militarized agents invaded our community and terrorized us.
  • They seized the land by gunpoint, claiming it as their own.
  • They not only threatened, but actually inflicted bodily harm on anyone who stepped onto the land.  Remind you, this land was cared for, cultivated and improved upon by my family and the community for many generations.
  • A 57 year old cancer surviving woman was body slammed by a federal agent, for doing nothing more than exercising her first amendment rights.
  • As we sat in the sniper’s cross-hairs, federal agents shoved M-16 rifles into the faces of our wives who were holding our infant children.
  • Dave was, kicked, beaten, battered, loaded into a federal truck and taken to the BLM compound to become the BLM trophy.  They paraded him around in the sun, cruelly ridiculing him for hours, tightly bound (without water). After they had their fun with him, they dump him out on the road and covered up any legal proof that they even took him.
These are just a few of the atrocities that were inflicted upon my family and the community – who was peacefully protesting.  The only thing we pointed at those agents, were cameras to capture their atrocities for the world to see.  In return, they released dogs on us, they tased us, they beat us and they abused us in order to intimidate us.
When our first amendment rights were stripped down to a 20’x50′ box, you did nothing.  When armed men trampled my brother, beat him and nearly took his life, you refused to protect. When women, infants, and children were held captive at gunpoint by angry and violent men, our cries for help fell on deaf ears.
When men and women literally wounded and bleeding were in need of emergency assistance, because you allowed these heavy hands to afflict us, you then refused the emergency medical services to be dispatched for our care.
When we called, you said, “there wasn’t anything you could do”.  You said, “this fight was between the Bundy’s and the BLM”. However, you commanded your deputies to stand by while their own families and community members were being inflicted upon and threatened with lethal weapons.
Sheriff, your response demonstrates that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of your place in our government.  You have more authority and responsibility than any federal agency, and yet you cowardly forced the people to defend themselves.
Evidence in your power and responsibility was never more apparent than at the standoff.  When your deputies told the federal agents to back down – the federal agents backed down. They backed down because your deputies who had constitutional and jurisdictional authority from the people, finally did what the people hired you and them to do, and insisted that these federal agents stop their abuses.
In the end, your deputies did the right thing, but Sheriff, you should have never let it come to this.  While the BLM was willing to shoot my family over land and power
, we were willing to die for our families, our livelihoods and our constitutional rights.  You should have been defending these rights for us.  That’s what we elected you to do.
Thankfully, the American people came to our defense.  They came to our defense because you failed to do your duty.  For that you should be grieved and held accountable.
I offer warning to you and other government personnel that lead or follow your example. The people are in unrest because of these types of egregious actions. The purpose of government is to protect and uphold the unalienable rights of the people, not to infringe upon them. It is our duty and obligation to defend our God-given rights if our government representatives fail to do so, or tries to discard them. We as citizens desire to live in peace and tranquility, but will defend our freedoms if necessary, in order to do so. I call upon you Sheriff Gillespie, and all civil servants, to honorably effectuate the true purpose of government, to uphold the oaths and duties of your sworn offices-to truly be representative of the people, by the people and for the people.
I leave you with the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson:
“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add ‘within the limits of the law’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.”
Sincerely,
Ammon Bundy

A New Mexican Views on Bundy and Government acting like Bandidos

Article by Quintas Dias:  I wrote this several months ago during the height of the tense standoff between Nevada Rancher Cliven Bundy and federal agents.
New Mexico is a strange place full of extreme contrasts.  It is full of awesomely beautiful country intermixed with sprawling range lands and hard rocky desert.  The land in some places is so broken that it looks like an angry giant had picked it up, and then in fury had dashed it hard into the ground.  The cataclysmic impact rendered the land into torturous deep chasms, spires, weird-looking hooligans, narrow cuts, featuring towering mesas back dropped by deep blue skies and snow-capped mountains.
The people who live in this land denoted by extremes of topography that sees daytime temperatures soaring to over 110F in the daytime and then plunging down into a bone-chilling freeze at night are an ornery lot.  They are very tough and self-reliant, soft-spoken and polite.
Many of them are descendants of American Natives, who claim that their ancestors were star people.  Apache, Comanche, Kiowa, and Navajo warriors roamed, raided, and hunted all over New Mexico.  The Spaniards built marvelous frontier communities in some of the harshest lands possible, giving their names to many striking waypoints, such as the malpais or bad country lands around the Trinity site and the White Sands, and the bleak Jornada del Muerto (Dead man’s Journey) trail that saw many tragic deaths from exposure, Indian attacks, and murders.  Some are descendants of Spanish explorers, hardy soldiers, and very tough Spanish and Mexican vaqueros (cowboys).  Yet, others are descendants of long riding American outlaws of Irish and Scottish descent.
Sure, they have their differences, but by far and large they have learned to look past language, custom, and tradition and get along very well.  Anglos do not go to the Mex dances to sit and drink, they get up and dance with the senoritas.  They have many commonalities.  The first is the tradition that everybody goes about armed.  The second is that you never insult a man, his family, or his woman.  The third is you never mistreat a horse, dog, or a man’s woman.  Finally, it does not matter who starts something, what matters is why, and how it ended.
There have been more range wars, shootings, murders, and instances of sheer barbarism in New Mexico than anywhere else in the United States.  New Mexicans will not allow themselves to be abused.  They are slow speaking, thoughtful, and very considerate, but God help you if you start to “prod” them.
I went to see my rancher friend, Isaac “Gabe” Montano for his opinion on the gripping Bundy incident over in Nevada.  Gabe originates from Spanish stockmen and looks it.  He has black eyes, curly black hair, is of medium height, and is fine featured.  Gabe, a handsome man is a “chick” magnet.  His pretty wife, Nata said so.  Gabe runs about 500 head of cattle north in the Vermejo country, near the Colorado line adjacent to Raton, NM.  So, we got to toodling (drinking shots of Jose Cuervo alternating with Jim Beam and strong cowboy coffee).
I asked him about Bundy.  Gabe shoved his sweat-stained punchbowl shaped Stetson back off of his forehead and frowned.  After a moment, and several sips of Joe Crow (Jose Cuervo) Gabe, spoke his piece.  “Es una faena de mala fortuna para todos demas (It’s a show with bad fortune for everybody).”  He did not comment on who started it, as I knew he would.  What mattered was who did what and how it would end.  Gabe considered that Bundy might have ancestral rights to the land, especially if his land was part of the Spanish Land Grants, which the Americans had acknowledged to preserve by signing the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.  Nevada is Spanish for snowbound.  Nevada was Spanish territory.
“There is bad and good for every person.  Nobody does right all the time.”  Gabe said, adding that he pays his grazing fees although it rankles him to do so.  When I asked him how he would feel if he had evidence of the Grazing Commission using fees to benefit other ranchers or to drive him out of business.  He did not hesitate to say that was a matter for the quarenta-y-cinco or the Tejana as Hispanics call Colt .45s. Gabe took a sip and shot a hand out at me.  He said back in the old days ranchers doing a cattle deal or cowboys playing poker or dominoes would pull their irons and slap assorted .45s and .44s on top of a table to discuss a deal or to play a hand.  That kept the dealings more or less honest.
He said he did not like it that Bundy was grazing cattle without paying his fees like everyone else in New Mexico.  He offered that the matter should be looked at by the courts, as long as the courts were playing fair.  He stroked his mustache.  “Si, es como asi, las cortes–mejor antes que las armas.  (Yes, it’s like this, the courts before the gun).”
I was curious to know if he thought Bundy was a bad man or if he could get justice for his claim.  Gabe took another sip and then shook his head.  His dark eyes flashed.  He remarked that no, Bundy was not bad, but hard and proud.  After a moment, he added that as for justice, maybe.  I asked him to explain.  Justice he said was in the heart of men.  Good men gave justice.  Bad men did not, and it was as simple as that.
He refilled his glass, then mine, and then shot me a hard glance.  The government he said had done Bundy bad, they had killed and had mistreated his animals, had injured his people and women without justification.  That he said made him favor Bundy’s cause regardless who had started it.  Finally, I asked him how he would handle and end it.  Gabe reached down to a badly scarred saddlebag, opened it and retrieved a worn but mechanically perfect old Colt Bisley Model with a five and a half inch barrel.  The shooter had belonged to his grandfather, Eulegio.
He slapped the Colt down rather hard on top of the mesquite table and said in a soft voice that for insulting him, mistreating and killing his animals, and assaulting his women, the government men were acting like bandidos.  There was only one-way to deal with bandits…the way of the gun.  Then he put the old shooter away, nodded at me, and said goodnight leaving me to consider that maybe the old ways were still good ones to use when the government acts like bandits.

NB:  Like with many New Mexicans, there is no pretense with Gabe.  He tells it as he sees it and if you don’t like it, then you can go dance with the devil.
