Anti-government activist faces harassment charges

In court documents, Bruce identifies himself as Christopher The Living Man.

A blog authored under his name suggests that the United Nations moved tanks onto U.S. soil under the cover of Jade Helm, a military exercise that drew a rash of conspiracy theories.

Bruce labels himself a "sovereign national" — a follower of a loosely organized movement of extremists also known as "sovereign citizens" who believe they are free to disobey U.S. laws, like getting driver's licenses and vehicle registrations. Bruce wrote in one filing that Iowa courts have no jurisdiction over him "unless God's laws are broken."

'Mr. Sagebrush Rebellion' bankrolls push to seize federal land

When Western county commissioners wanted to start a nonprofit dedicated to taking over federal lands, they turned to a well-heeled 92-year-old businessman.

Bert Smith and his wife, Kathy, cut a $35,000 check. The American Lands Council was born in 2012.

"I don't know how much money they've put into it over the years, but a lot," said Demar Dahl, an Elko County, Nev., commissioner and the organization's co-founder and current board member.

Bert Smith, now 95, styles himself "Mr. Sagebrush Rebellion" and calls jailed Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy a "hero." The Ogden, Utah, resident has quietly bankrolled a bevy of groups challenging the federal government's ownership of roughly 640 million acres of Western lands.
