Ammon Bundy
Trial stemming from a 2014 standoff could be derailed by a ploy to pose as a ‘fake film company’ and an ethics scandal involving a BLM officer and Burning Man
FBI agents posed as journalists and tricked the Bundy ranching family and their supporters into giving on-camera interviews that prosecutors may use in upcoming trials, according to defense attorneys and court records.
The FBI’s “fake film production company” and “wide-reaching deceptive undercover operation”, as lawyers described it in a court filing, is one of multiple controversies that some say could derail the government’s prosecution of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, his four sons and a dozen of their followers. A recent Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ethics scandal involving tickets for the popular Burning Man festival could further hinder prosecutors in the high-profile trial, which began this week in Las Vegas federal court.
The case stems from the Bundy family’s infamous 2014 standoff with federal agents at their ranch in Bunkerville, Nevada. The 70-year-old patriarch became a hero to conservative cowboys in the west when he publicly refused to pay grazing fees to the federal government, arguing that the BLM has no right to regulate lands by his property.

Rancher says he's ready to make another stand over his right to stiff taxpayers for fees and fines he owes for grazing his cattle on public lands.
Notorious Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy says he is ready to “walk towards guns” if the Biden administration takes action to force him to pay up for decades’ worth of rent and fines or seize his cattle that graze for free on public lands, he said in an interview.
Observers believe it might not be the best time for Bundy to make an armed stand on government land in the wake of the attack on the U.S. Capitol by extremist Donald Trump supporters. Bundy’s refusal to pay grazing fees on public land or remove hundreds of his trespassing cattle triggered a standoff between him and armed supporters and federal officers in 2014.
Bundy believes that Joe Biden’s administration will make a move on him and on others, he told right-wing shock broadcaster Pete Santilli in an interview earlier this month.
The rancher claimed: “They’ve just been waiting for this. The day that they change this administration ... everything changes, the danger. But it’s not only for Bundy Ranch, it’s for all Americans. We’re in trouble.”
Stripping the rights of gun owners is stripping them from the ability to protect themselves from tyranny.
If you want to take that right away then you're okay with the government walking all over you and taking what they want and it has to stop. The infringement of freedom shall not be suffered lightly.
In 2016 the federal government revealed during the Oregon trial against Defendants charged for their involvement in protests in Nevada and Oregon that Facebook provided raw, bulk data to the U.S. Government without a warrant. This data was admittedly given by Facebook to the U.S. government in violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution which prohibits unlawful search and seizure, as well as in violation of Facebook's own written policies.
Federal court documents indicate that if you viewed, clicked "like", shared, commented or are connected to anyone in the "Bundy Ranch Community" dating back to 2014 until approximately the middle of 2016, all of your personal data was seized and searched without probable cause and provided to the U.S. Government by Facebook without your knowledge.
If you followed the Bundy protests, or know of someone who followed the Bundy protests on Facebook in 2014 through 2016, you are a potential class member of a lawsuit that will be filed on behalf of everyone similarly situated. The magnitude of this breech of Facebook's data could potentially be in the 10's of millions of Facebook users. All of our individual profile data, along with all of our friends, contacts and group member's profiles were searched in bulk, as the government admitted in open court that we are all "un-indicted co-conspirators" if we clicked like or shared a post.
