‘Frame’ BLM’s Neil Kornze In A Poster Before BLM Returns To Bundy Ranch
Desert Tortoise BLM used as an excuse to remove Bundy’s cattle but the Harry Reid-sanctioned Western Solar Plan

The high-handed, armed sniper-backed Bureau of Land Management, which retreated from Cliven Bundy’s Nevada ranch on Saturday, will be back. BLM will be back because they never go away. Their harassment campaigns against hard-working land owners and ranchers goes back more than 20 years.
For 20 long years, BLM members have worked non-stop at what boils down to trying to frame Rancher Cliven Bundy.
It is time to ‘frame’ Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid point man Neil Kornze. Frame him in the kind of poster that identified cattle rustlers down at the local post office in days of yore. That way, Kornze no longer rides the drifted plains as a faceless bureaucrat but as someone everyone can readily identify as the perp.
Postering Kornze brings him out of the bureaucratic hide-y-hole known as the present day BLM and puts him where he belongs—at the head of the agency that is robbing ranchers of their way of life.
Kornze joined the BLM in 2011 and has been leading the agency as principal deputy director for the past year. Some 71 senators—including 16 Republican ones—installed him to his seat of power. Only 28 senators—all Republican—cast votes against him.
Republican Senator Dean Heller-Nev, who voted for Kornze’s confirmation, was, over the weekend, decrying the restriction of First Amendment protests, saying it “tramples upon Nevadans’ fundamental rights under the U.S. Constitution”, a switcheroo he seems to have so far gotten away with.
The territory of which 71 senators put Kornze in charge includes more than 245 million acres of public land nationwide—with 48 million acres located in Nevada.Many protesters who came to the rescue of Cliven Bundy in Bunkerville were spurred to answer the call of justice because they believe it is not the Desert Tortoise BLM used as an excuse to remove Bundy’s cattle but the Harry Reid-sanctioned Western Solar Plan.
“Kornze was a key player in the development of the Western Solar Plan and the agency’s successful authorization of more than 10,000 megawatts of renewable energy, surpassing a congressionally-established goal 3 years ahead of schedule. He has also been active in tribal consultation, especially as it relates to oil and gas and renewable energy development. (Dept. of the Interior)
