C4CF

The Citizens for Constitutional Freedom was an American rump militia that occupied the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon from 2 January to 11 February 2016. Led by Ammon Bundy, the group fought the government over grazing rights on federal land, and the group had anywhere from 20 to 40 members during the standoff. Bundy was arrested on 26 January, while LaVoy Finicum was killed while resisting arrest by federal officers. On 11 February, the last of the C4CF militants were arrested, and the standoff ended. The group consisted of radical members of the US Republican Party, some Neo-Nazis (such as Jon Ritzheimer), and Mormon terrorists.
