See for yourself. The FBI has released video of the roadblock stop, arrests of Ammon Bundy and occupants of the dark Jeep, arrest of one occupant of white truck driven by Finicum, of him taking off, driving for a while and running up into snowbank and getting stuck, jumping out, hand into inside pocket twice or more, and he was shot, flashbangs and gas into white pickup, and arrest/detainment of those left inside.

What’s going on in Oregon?
January 27th, 2016
Above, those arrested in OR at the traffic stop, Ammon Bundy, 40; his brother Ryan Bundy, 43; Brian Cavalier, 44; Shawna Cox, 59; and Ryan Payne, 32, and in Burns, OR, Joseph Donald O’Shaughnessy, 45, and Peter Santilli, 50. Turning himself in down in AZ was Jon Ritzheimer, below:
Well, Bundys didn’t go home, and by setting up a roadblock and arresting the leadership, that seems the best way to go, avoiding an “invasion” of the Refuge. Robert LaVoy Finicum, who had said he was going to die there, did. After the arrests, law enforcement has surrounded the Malheur National Wildlife Reserve.

Not much going on, talking on phones in background, hear someone walking around… supposedly they’re digging trenches preparing for feds or ?
And from Houston Eagle:
Too late to go home, Bundys. Meanwhile, funny how Jon Ritzheimer happened to leave and went back home to Arizona just before the arrests. He’s since been arrested too:

2nd Petition for Intervention in Xcel Rate Case
January 25th, 2016
Apparently Judge Oxley did not like the Overland and No CapX 2020 Petition for Intervention in the rate case, late Friday the Order came out. It was denied, without prejudice. And yet interventions for Commercial Group, Suburban Rate Authority, and City of Minneapolis were granted…
… sigh… OK… fine…
Just filed at 12:01 a.m. Monday, January 25, 2016:
These transmission issues being raised about CapX 2020 and the MISO MVP 17 Project Portfolio are so important that I’m going to be persistent.
Here’s the schedule, from the First Prehearing Order:
