EPA Tryanny in Wyoming

Andy Johnson is a small farmer/rancher who works as a welder to raise his family of six.  He built a stock pond a few years ago, after obtainingall needed local and state permits.  These permits were signed off by the correct agencies when the pond was completed.

Two years later EPA charged him with an illegal construction in a wetland.  They have been fining him at least $37,500 per day ever since.  The total is now over $16 million.

Watch this video to see the injustice and to see the beautiful little pond that has enhanced the local environment on Andy's property and neighborhood.

Thankfully, Pacific Legal Foundation and many legislators have come to Andy's assistance.  However, EPA still maintains that Andy has violated teh Clean Water Act, especially now that they have declared jurisdiction of all of the "Waters of the U.S."

The scary part is that if the EPA prevails on its "Waters of the U.S." declaration, they will have destroyed private property rights for all Americans who have any type of water on their property.  Significantly, the White House supports and encourages this bureaucratic tyranny.

Similar story:  Mike and Chantall Sackett fought the EPA and after about 6 years finally won in the Supreme Court.  The court said things like "egregious overreach" about the EPA.  The decision was 9-0.  See here:  Sackett Case against EPA

Tryanny or Honest Mistake? Land Rover Seized by Feds

I've had dealings with California CARB about registration of foriegn vehicles.  I got it resolved and the people I dealt with were simple bureaucratics doing their jobs.  But that was 20 years ago.

It seems things are changing.  These folks had their Land Rover Defender seized because of a VIN number mix-up.  Maybe they got swindled by the previous owner, maybe it was never correct, maybe parts got replaced at some point.

For this huge crime, six vehicles and many agents swooped down on their property and grabbed the car.  They were from Homeland Security.  Now the folks can't find out where the car is located, or even get people to talk to them.  It looks like summary justify the bureaucratic way is about to happen.

This is plain stupid.  You don't need gun-toting federal law-enforcement agents to execute a car seizure.   This another case of the EPA and it sub-agencies turning into tyrannical law-unto-themselves.

The American People are being disrespected and mistreated too often these days.
