Examiner – by Joe NewbyOn Friday, John Jacob Schmidt of Radio Free Redoubtsaid that according to Stewart Rhodes, founder of Oath Keepers, Attorney General Eric Holder has approved drone strikes against the Bundy ranch to take place some time in the next 48 hours. According to Schmidt, the information came from a source Oath Keepers has within the Department of Defense.
That source, according to the report, allegedly said Attorney General Eric Holder authorized what is known as a “hot drone strike” against the ranch. Such a strike, he added would effectively kill everyone at the ranch.
Schmidt said that as far as he could determine, there has been no attempt to follow through with the alleged threat. He also expressed hope that a planned strike against Americans on U.S. soil could be averted.
According to a post at The Liberty Beacon, Rhodes said feds are treating the Bundy ranch situation like a bomb threat in a school. Leslie Bishop Paul, the national administrator of Oath Keepers, said on Facebook the information “may, or may not” be valid, but hoped that “sunlight’ would cause federal agencies to back down from such an act.
“Pray it isn’t true and pray it never happens,” Paul added.
Liberty Beacon went on to say that such a move by the government would be the straw that broke the proverbial camel’s back. The blog went on to suggest that the information might be intended to provoke violence, giving the government reason to impose martial law.
“So is this disinformation to get the boots on the ground to evacuate the scene so that BLM people can move in Waco style, or is it absolute bull to have us put out false info and destroy our credibility,” the blog asked. During an interview with Schmidt, Rhodes said it is possible the report could be part of a disinformation campaign. The person who reportedly gave the information, he said, believes what he heard.
Rhodes also said that Holder felt justified in his decision, based on comments made by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. As we reported last Friday, Reid called Bundy supporters “domestic terrorists.”
Attempts to obtain comments from the Department of Justice have so far been unsuccessful. The entire 20-minute report can be heard here.

This admin is full of America hating tyrants which would make this absurd ‘solution’ believable.
However, the chance that people might do more than the standard ‘sit on the sofa and bitch’ could have the admin stay far away from such an option.
Tough call for me to think they are planning on such an outrageous & lawless action.
Real, or just plain rumor ……
It doesn’t really matter.
We know they’d pull it off ..
if they could get away with it.
With their history, we know this to be true.
Besides, what ever they do, by the way of
hostilities, their own lives wouldn’t be worth
a plug nickel.
So let’s review ……maybe they should be
making sure NOTHING happens to anyone.
Like a wise man once said,
“My fault, your fault, it doesn’t really matter.
The point is, if anything happens, we’re
coming for you.”
Point well made sir. “The point is, if anything happens, we’re
coming for you.” where do they live, shop, go to church, dine out, grocery shop, route to and from work, etc.
It’s BS…. It was something stewart stewie boy heard.
As we all know by now, the primary reason for a drone strike would NOT be to kill everybody there. The primary reason would be to gauge the public’s reaction.
I’m betting that most people living east of the Mississippi would say it’s a damn shame and quickly forget about it because most of them now believe deep in their little minds that Cliven Bundy is a racist tax evader who personally knew Marshal Dillon and Chester, and shouldn’t be allowed to carry that nasty six-shooter because we all know from Sandy Hook how dangerous guns can be. They’d also feel comfortable believing Iran sent the drone if Obama claimed as much.
Most people living between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi will say it’s unforgivable and take longer to forget about it, and might even call for Holder’s impeachment (which, to Holder, means “early retirement in luxury with free bodyguards”).
Harry Reid would be declared “the winner” by the mainstream media, and in the final analysis, Americans love a winner. Tumbleweeds will eventually blow across what used to be a ranch, collecting against the the same solar panels Harry Reid posed in front of with his Chinese fat cats. Then Lady Gaga or Justin Beiber will do something dumb, and all will be forgotten.
I hope I’m wrong to be so cynical, but as H.L. Mencken said, “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.” I mean, just look at how they profited from their last mass murder on 9/11. “Branch Davidians?” What the hell are “Branch Davidians?”
“Rhodes also said that Holder felt justified in his decision, based on comments made by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. As we reported last Friday, Reid called Bundy supporters “domestic terrorists.””
Well, of course, Holder would listen to his boy, Dirty Harry. They both go to the same treasonous school. Duh!
Hang ’em both and get it over with!
Why would Holder need to approve.
Obummer could just whip up another E.O.
IF…and that is a big IF this was a real threat, could be the Feds are probing for weak links (patriots) who could give away info in the future. They may be at this moment handing out pink slips to intel personnel right now.
Even if it was BS why the heck would OathKeepers even consider backing down if they were willing to support Bundy in the first place? Since these guys are supposedly trained in military and law enforcement tactics and strategy, am I to believe they wouldn’t see this coming? I have virtually no military and LEO training and only minimal survival training (why my husband taught me), and even I could see a scenario where prepping for drone use and not leaving at all makes a heck of a lot more sense..or maybe some on here are correct and Rhodes is just another in a long line of poseurs!
I really do think you people have Oath Keepers wrong. Stewart Rhodes didn’t form an organization of hopeful martyrs. He formed an organization around cops and military sticking to their oaths. There is nothing in the Constitution that says, “Cops and military shall willingly die defending somebody who’s being droned.” We need those cops and military who intend to disobey unconstitutional orders, not just because they’re on our side, but because they’re on the INSIDE. Quit throwing stones at those people; they need our respect. Go to the Bundy Ranch YOURSELF or just can all the lame tough-guy criticism. I said, “can the lame tough-guy criticism.” I’m sure most of you have dicks three feet long, but until you willingly die at the Bundy Ranch, you’re just a chump in a chat room.
And by the way, I’m beginning to think some of the commenters on this website might be counterintelpro (counter intelligence program, but of course you knew that). A lot of “bring it on” horse-shit to get somebody to go ballistic. I posted the above comments yesterday after a different article and they never got displayed. Somebody at your end doesn’t want to be flushed out? Save your f*** you’s for the mirror.
Besides, it looks to me like the whole drone / Oath Keeper retreat controversy is a red herring to begin with, and Stewart Rhodes is owed an apology by a lot of people here.
Yeah, it does look like this whole drone thing was a red herring and Stewart Rhodes facilitated it. And it would appear that you are the f#@King shill/agent. You and the rest of the f#@king cowards like you need to go somewhere else. By the way, how much has old Stewart made on this scam so far?
Hey there diogenes F U .
You dis us here?, ok, now that you did that now listen to Henry and go somewhere else that is more to your likeing. Obviously you are here to stir up trouble with us.
By the way sonny – understand this – not every one has the money to up and go to the bundy ranch either – do you understand that .
I’m east of the Mississippi and I’m pissed…?
Holder is a coward..its that simple
if he wants to be run out of DC on a rail than he will try this..but I suspect this act will not be viewed the way he thinks it will and there will be many waiting for their noose to be filled with every one playing in DC
if this goes hot, every politico will have a target to run from
