They seemed cynical enough about the transmission from the wildlife sanctuary but it wasn't clear what their trip is about.

5. I watched their live feed for a bit

Then when the feeds dried up they started showing JibJabs and moved on to something else.

That's all I really know. Except that they look pretty cheesy, but that's to be expected I guess.

(nothiefsallowed.org is what the OP is probably asking about where the live stream is. Nothiefs is different.)

From the live stream participation, it shows how few the militia supporters are, and also how much difference of opinion there can be within such seemingly tight ranks.

7. From what I have gathered two people are linked together on this live stream site

One is Keven who is a constitutionist but who disawowes armed direct action operations like the Amand Bundy group and the Defendyourbase wackos who were left behind after the Bundys were arrested

The other person is Barbie who seems to be a non affiliated militia publicist who relays information on current and planned militia 'missions'

Apparently there are two to three new 'missions' planned in Colarado, Wisconsin and Flint Michigan

They have been posting live feeds from the refuge since the end game to this take over began since the Ammond Bundy and Fiticum shooting happened

The FBI must love this site. Free no risk intelligence with much self incriminating jaw wag

8. Just to reassure this isn't a trolling exercise. I just found this is a good source if you are

interested in how these oathkeeper / sovereign citizen types think and who they are since they are quite naive in how internet anonymity works

For instance, one of the interesting ironies of their coverage of the last 24 hours of this crisis is that they refer commentators to Facebook page PMs as if they were secure channels

I mean how dumb can you be?

It is also a good source for understanding the whole escoteric constitutionalist world view

then asked if people had to call in to hear what he had been saying.

Hard to stop listening.

10. Also what has come out of this is that this is part of a coordinated Militia land grab of Federal

lands under the banner of what is being called the Golden Triangle Militia group who are a collection of miltiias in Orange and Jefferson counties who are apparentlyl planning other takeovers of this type

The big gripe is that the Bundies blew the program by entering into this action without including or informing Oregon militias of their intensions

These people are nuts but luckily they think their chat sites are secure channels even though they reveal their intensions and identities on Facebook

It is very entertaining to lurk on this site since Barbie especially is a chatty Kathy who dumps all kinds of information regarding who is who and what these nut balls are doing and where they are doing it

On chemo and it's hard for me to keep up. So much info to digest between this and the crime in Flint, along with the other news. I appreciate posts like these.

11. Watching now and it appears to be truly live. "Barbie" is a nutjob.

I watched it all day yesterday. Interesting (and frightening) dialogues. Apparently there are still a few (five?) there.
