A federal judge orders the acting director of the Bureau of Land Management to step aside, finding that he has served unlawfully for more than 400 days

Chief District Judge Brian Morris of the US District Court of Montana ruled that Pendley has served unlawfully for 424 days, in response to a lawsuit brought by Democratic Montana Gov. Steve Bullock and the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation. Morris additionally ruled Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt cannot pick another person to run the Bureau of Land Management and instead must take those responsibilities on himself.

"Read MorePendley was nominated to be the permanent director of the agency in July but the Trump administration withdrew his nomination in September after a series of controversial statements -- including saying that climate change is not real and falsely saying that there was no credible evidence of a hole in the ozone layer -- were made public by CNN's KFile.

Biden claims he’s a military family. Hunter was discharged for years of using cocaine!!!! he put our whole country and military in danger!!

Is that Joe Exotic?..... Tiger King

BLM sucks. Told ya. Weapons of mass destruction

Is that Tiger King?

It took a judge to undo Trumps unconstitutional decree, and it will take a judge to sentence the whole criminal Trump gang to prison!

An O'Biden judge.

Looks like preacher from the 1800s.

fitting monument to the grift that's captured 1600, wouldn't you say?

I loved this guy on Tiger King.

Was he making a salary?

He needs a court order to get rid of that facial hair!!!

Wow, look who it is.

Chad Wolfe next?

nancyneff2 Is he a member of the Exotic family?

BLM

I know Joe Exotic when I see him.

Yeah, don't believe he has ability to do that but good try.....

Well, finally. Wildland firefighters all over the West are cheering. Of course the president will do it all over again, but at least the person will only have 38 days to get to office.

That mustache/beard is unlawful.

He looks like Tiger King’s Dad

vashurkov сечина так можно? всю госдуму тож, ой, губернаторы, фсб мвд бастрыкины чайки, список жуть

Sifill_LDF Where does he find these grifters?

With a name like William Perry Pendley he sounds like a outlaw who would poison your well water, steal your land , and corrupt your town sheriff. He did just that. A toast to running off the bad guy! Bye, bye Sagebrush_Rebel not gonna miss you at all!

ZuzuBriar Let me guess — a Trump appointment?

There he is...

Huh. Another illegal thing that the IMPEACHED president has done. He can't stop himself from doing illegal things. So, voters must stop him.

That's his brother.... right? JoeExotic JustSaying

Is that Ron Jeremy?

Now do Chad Wolf and Jared Kushner.

can he apply to the same law to stupid fuck 1 servedUnlawfullyForOver400days

Maybe Trump hould have been clearer when he told the genie, “I wish the courts would go after BLM”

Is that the Tiger King Joe Exotic?

Yeah cause he's supposed to be in prison for putting a hit out on Carole Baskin

Think of all the underlings from frump appointments. They must shake their collectives heads and say, ‘I am getting paid’. What a waste of $$ and resources.

Hopefully they will be recovering the money he was paid while serving illegally. You shouldn't be paid to do a job you were even legaly entitled to perform in the first place.

I thought tiger King was in Jail wtfffff

PortableRockArt Why has no federal judge blocked Chad Wolfe, also serving illegally

These a r not protestors...they are Marxist violent rioters. they are terrorists,the facist antifa , probably even influenced by china.. when will you learn and show real news? And keep your Political motivations aside? BLM BLMRiots BLMAntifaTerrorists

Tell the judge to shove it.

How many more have been over 400 days? Half the White House?

Blondie!

So he’s the head of BLM?!

I thought Joe Exotic was in jail

The Wheels of Justice grind slowly

The courts continue to hold strong.

nickelsackdcom BLM

Related?

What is that?!

Who is this person? Need more in detailed investigation and reports, please?!

Joe Exotic acting up again smh

Do we gett he Salary back?

Did the mustache tip them off?

Anyone with facial hair like that shouldn't be permitted to serve in any official capacity.

WTF is Bureau of Land Management? Can I have that job?

All the best people

Bill Murray works for the Government?

His mustache is unlawful...

He wasn't doing enough to keep the forest floors clean.

Great, now do the other acting directors.

Judge removes Trump public lands boss for serving unlawfullyU.S. Interior Dept. Bureau of Land Management acting director William Perry Pendley served unlawfully for 424 days without being confirmed to the post by the Senate as required under the Constitution, U.S. District Judge Brian Morris has determined. Welcome to the broadcast So how are they going to spin saying the Constitution is unConstitutional? My greatest concern is that, by the time the courts have finished cleaning up after Trump and his minions, this country, our society, and our democratic republic will be broken beyond repair.
