Why the Nevada Rancher Refuses to Recognize Federal Authority

Cliven Bundy, the last remaining rancher in Clark County, Nev., stands at the center of what has become a national controversy over the private use of federal land. He is focused on one big issue, he said in a radio interview with Glenn Beck on Monday: He doesn't believe the land belongs to the federal government.
"I think this is very clarifying to people," Beck said. "Your stance is, 'I do not recognize these lands to be federal ... I am staking out my claim that the United States government does not have any jurisdiction, and any rights to the land that [I am] now grazing on.'"
