Is Democrat Harry Reid Behind the Obama BLM’s Attempted Bundy Ranch Land Grab?

Harry Reid Obama It shouldn’t come as any real surprise that the tyranny the Obama regime was conducting in Nevada over the past several days at the Bundy Ranch could possibly lead to Democrat Majority Leader Harry Reid.

Reid’s former longtime aide, Neil Kornze is the head of the Obama Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that conducted the raid on rancher Cliven Bundy, a 68 year-old rancher who’s family’s cattle have grazed on the “federal” land for more than 100 years, several decades before the BLM even existed.

“My forefathers have been up and down the Virgin Valley ever since 1877. All these rights I claim have been created through pre-emptive rights and beneficial use of the forage and water. I have been here longer. My rights are before the BLM even existed,” Bundy said.

In a confusing set of excuses to harass an American rancher with snipers and helicopters, the last one in Clark County, NV, the Obama government seemed confused of the reason they were invading the Bundy Ranch and confiscating Bundy’s cattle using gestapo-like tactics, on one hand saying that Bundy had refused to pay grazing fees the past twenty years, while on the other hand, claiming his cattle were somehow endangering a supposed desert tortoise, a tortoise the very same federal government had previously been killing en masse.

Facing reportedly over a thousand protesters and, many of them armed in defense of Mr. Bundy, Neil Kornze, the new Obama BLM head, “coincidentally” a former longtime (2003 to 2011) aide of Democrat Senator from Nevada and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, issued a statement Saturday promising that the Obama BLM would return the cattle it had taken from Mr. Bundy, due to safety concerns of both the public and government employees. There are questions concerning the reimbursement of the cattle that the government agency reportedly killed in the siege.

Connections to Reid, a lifetime government employee who has mysteriously become a multi-millionaire, could run even deeper than his inexperienced former aide being appointed to head the BLM. Reid, who just weeks ago was forced to return campaign money funneled to his granddaughter, may have wanted to intimidate and harass Mr. Bundy off his land in order to line the pockets of himself and his son, Rory Reid.

Infowars reported the connection, linking Reid and his son, Rory Reid, to a deal with the Communist Chinese, which would have placed a $5-billion solar plant in the Nevada desert:

Back in 2012, the New American reported that Harry Reid’s son, Rory Reid, was the chief representative for a Chinese energy firm planning to build a $5-billion solar plant on public land in Laughlin, Nevada.

And journalist Marcus Stern with Reuters also reported that Sen. Reid was heavily involved in the deal as well.

“[Reid] and his oldest son, Rory, are both involved in an effort by a Chinese energy giant, ENN Energy Group, to build a $5 billion solar farm and panel manufacturing plant in the southern Nevada desert,” he wrote. “Reid has been one of the project’s most prominent advocates, helping recruit the company during a 2011 trip to China and applying his political muscle on behalf of the project in Nevada.”

Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17, of the U.S. Constitution, allows for the federal government to own the land “not exceeding ten Miles square,” for the nation’s capitol, along with land, “purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State” in which the land is located for the “Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings.” Nowhere is there any mention of “desert tortoises” or any other animal or purpose. The Founding Fathers were strictly against the federal government seizing state and private land.

The BLM falls under the Department of the Interior, part of the Executive Branch of government, led by President Barack Obama.
