Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy arrested in Portland
2016-02-11
The father of two men who were among the occupiers of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and are now in jail, was himself arrested in Portland, Ore., Wednesday night.

Cliven Bundy, a Nevada rancher prominent in protests to end federal control of western lands, is being held in the Multnomah County Detention Center. His sons Ammon and Ryan were arrested Jan. 27 and are there as well.

Bundy had said earlier this week that he intended to travel to Oregon to support the four men still occupying a government building on the refuge.

On Wednesday at the refuge in southern Oregon, the FBI moved to further restrict the movement of the four militants and is actively negotiating with them, Oregon Public Broadcasting reports.

The FBI said on Twitter that around 4:30 p.m. PT, one of the occupiers rode an ATV past established barriers on the refuge grounds, and sped away when authorities approached. The FBI says after the incident agents placed barricades around the occupiers' location.

#7  Under Champ there has been an Executive Order defining two new criminal acts invoked when the lame-stream media turns its befuddled gaze to some overt act of seeming modest rebellion to expansive government overreach:
1. Felony Annoyance of the Imperial narrative
2. Felony media attention grabbing
Look for both to be charged against Bundy with appropriate coverstory.
