It’s not entirely surprising the Bundys would support immigrants, tbh.
Though much of their support comes from militia & right wing groups, much of their ideology comes from Mormonism, the concern of federal overreach, prosecution, and individual freedom

When I spoke to Ryan Bundy about his bid for NV governor, he aired similar ideas like Ammon in this video.
Ryan supported border protection, but also rights of migrants to seek work where they could find it once inside

What is not surprising at all, though, is that Ammon Bundy seems to be taking a lot of heat from his supporters after airing support for Central American migrants.
Another sign of the split in the militia movement?

So Bundy isn’t just going on FB to defend the migrant caravan and criticize Trump’s reaction to it. He’s paying to spread the msg
