GOOD MORNING, BLOGTOWN! Can’t you see I’m a fool in so many ways? But to lose all my senses that is just so typically me. LET’S GO TO PRESS.
ICYMI, US Magistrate Judge Stacie F. Beckerman has denied bail to some of the Yahoo Occupiers (including brothers Ammon and Ryan Bundy) who were arrested after a standoff at the Malheur Wildlife Reserve. “I reject the argument that this was just a peaceful protest,” she said to Bundy in court. “Your actions put law enforcement at risk and the people of Harney County in danger. A human being lost his life because of this occupation.” According to court records, Bundy will appeal the decision that he must be held until trial. MEANWHILE IT’S DAY 31 OF THE OCCUPATION, and the four remaining Yahoos at Malheur have discovered their phone and internet have been cut off. They’ve been quiet since Saturday, which might be good or bad news.
