"He faces a conspiracy charge to interfere with a federal officer -- the same charge lodged against two of his sons, Ammon and Ryan, for their role in the Jan. 2 takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Burns. He also faces weapons charges."

Cliven Bundy’s lawyer, Michael Arnold, said his client had been arrested at the Portland airport and would face a felony charge of conspiracy to impede officers of the United States from discharging their official duties, in connection with the 2014 standoff.

Glad Bundy is finally being held accountable. Next up should be seditious conspiracy charges and a zero tolerance policy concerning RW insurrectionists, but I doubt that'll happen since most of law enforcement seems to side with far right seditionists.

I suspect at some point on the way to being penniless and serving lengthy prison terms these dipshits are going to realize their white supremacist, posse comitatus bullshit just wasn't as great of a legal strategy as they thought.

HIS JAILING IS TIED TO A US MARSHAL HOLD. IT'S tied to the previous violent standoff and the $$$$$ he owes i believe they just said.

he won't be out on $5.99 bail I don't think. Let's all take up a collection to help pay poor Brother Cliven's bail now okay ?? NO!!!!!

The old fart was running things from his armchair. Now they can round up Blaine Cooper. This shit upsets me. I live in Washington state and near federal forests. I don't want a bunch of yahoos rolling in here with guns demanding that the forests be made private. You go Oregon and Feds!

Cliven Bundy Was Just ARRESTED As He Tried To Join Terrorists In Oregon February 11, 2016 2:55 am

If you’ve been wondering how long it would be before Cliven Bundy was finally arrested, you’ll be happy to know that just happened. No, you’re not dreaming. Yes, the tea you drank was just tea (as far as you know), and you are not hallucinating. Cliven Bundy has been arrested. While he was given a free pass after he organized an armed standoff with the federal government at his ranch because he didn’t feel he should pay heavily-subsidized and discounted grazing fees, the FBI finally cracked down on the Welfare Cowboy we love to mock as he attempted to join the remnants of his sons’ army in Oregon.

Earlier this week, Bundy announced his intention to go to Oregon, but when he attempted to act out his fantasy of rekindling the revolution with an ISIS supporter who joined the occupation of a federal bird sanctuary and his buddies, law enforcement moved in. Oregon Live reports:


Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher who touched off one showdown with federal authorities and applauded another started in Oregon by his sons, was arrested late Wednesday at Portland International Airport.

Bundy, 74, was booked into the downtown Multnomah County jail at 10:54 p.m.



The Bundy Ranch Facebook page reported Bundy was surrounded by SWAT officers and detained after his arrival.

For those who still feel this is too good to be true, here is his booking information:

Had he stayed in Nevada it would have been problematic for the Feds to arrest him because he was on his home turf. By getting on the plane all the FBI had to do was send a couple of agents to the gate to collect him as he got off the plane. Well played by the Feds.
