Authorities plan to cut off power to militia at occupied Oregon refuge
Armed militants will begin their third day at the wildlife refuge and have vowed to remain for months in protest at over the treatment of two local cattle ranchers


Federal authorities are planning to cut off the power of the wildlife refuge in Oregon that has been taken over by militia, exposing the armed occupiers to sub-zero temperatures in an effort to flush them out.

A federal government official told the Guardian that authorities were planning on Monday to cut the power at the refuge.

“It’s in the middle of nowhere,” said the official, who is based in Washington, DC, and has knowledge of the planned response to the militia. “And it’s flat-ass cold up there.”

The official, who asked not to be named, said they were not privy to the FBI’s plan of action. However, they said the US Park Service, which is leading the crisis management reaction to the occupation in liaison with the FBI, planned to cut the power to the building where the militiamen are spending their nights.

Trump ad uses footage from Morocco, not Mexican border

Donald Trump's new TV ad is not quite what it seems. Footage that is implied to be from the U.S. border with Mexico is actually from more than 5,000 miles away, in Morocco.

Here’s the Morocco footage:

And here’s the Trump ad:


According to PolitiFact, which gave the footage a "pants on fire" rating, the video of people racing to a wall is used while the narrator says, "He'll stop illegal immigration by building a wall on our southern border that Mexico will pay for.”

But it isn’t from Mexico. According to PolitiFact, the clip was posted by an Italian TV network in May 2014 and is of Moroccans going into Melilla, an autonomous North African enclave held by Spain.

Trump's campaign said Monday that the use of the Moroccan clip was "intentional."

"The use of this footage was intentional and selected to demonstrate the severe impact of an open border and the very real threat Americans face if we do not immediately build a wall and stop illegal immigration," spokeswoman Hope Hicks said. "The biased mainstream media doesn’t understand, but Americans who want to protect their jobs and their families do."
