KCBS 2 Reports On Pechanga and Pala Disenrollments Please Watch

KCBS Channel 2 reporter CRISTY FAJARDO reports on disenrollment for greed and power tonight. Pay special attention as to how WEAK the responses are from the two tribal chairmen, Mark Macarro and Robert Smith! They can lie and obfuscate with ease.  Here is the video:

..who is talking out of both sides of their mouth??..the BIA..smith--the BIA is saving your ass right now.. thank you for calling them out! You (smith)have documentation?--so do the disenrolled, and many others! The 1928 probates that you used to disenroll also show factual sworn testimony about who Margaritas father is--Pelegrino Ortega--that YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE/HAD IN YOUR POSSESSION and intentionally left out of your tribal distribution and refuse to recognize! Weren't you warned by your partner Eben at the BIA that the 1928 probates do not determine tribal membership? Here you are saying the
BIA is talking out of both sides of their mouth, and saying this isn't about money, greed, and most obviously, HATRED! Actually, the BIA has only decided one thing and has stood by it for many years--well before gaming came into the picture--that in 1989 after thorough investigation, the BIA rendered a final decision that Margarita's blood is 4/4--and you (smith) were part of the process!! Since then you have somehow passed ordinances alongside your crooked lawyer that allow you to not accept BIA decisions! Who is talking out of both sides of his mouth??

Thank you to Ms. Fajardo for getting this story out in the media. Its really sad that a historian hired by the tribe for Pechanga has found signifigant evidence that they are who they say they are but Macarro and his crew won't accept the findings. Just like Robert Smith and the EC at Pala refuse to accept a final decision by the BIA from 1989 after extensive research that says MB blood is 4/4 that the tribe themselves voted on that they agreed and this issue would be laid to rest and again in 2012 the BIA made a recommendation (because Pala took the power from the BIA to say determination now they can only say recomendation) that they re-enroll thier members. For all you Congressional viewers THIS is why it is so important for you to stand with us to amend the ICRA as we have asked you to do. Again we are not asking you to change soveriegnty we are asking you to sign the sign on letter we sent to you in order to amend it so the INDIVIDUAL members have some recourse when greedy corrupt leaders strip their members of their rightful heritage. I encourage you to sign the letter!!!!!!!!! As many of us thought he would Smith hid behind soverienty and did not show his "proof". For those from the BIA who are reading you know that this is wrong you have said it yourselves. He says you are talking out both sides of your mouth he should have been thanking you for standing behind him but he didn't because he only thinks about himself. This shows what kind of man he is.

I AM PECHANGA. You can take away a check, but you cannot however take the blood from my body.... This story reflects the truth, glad to see it put out there, TRUTH. Markarro was full of it on the letter head of MY great ancestors..... He will have his day. I could care less about wishing bad on you ppl doing illegal things to REAL INDIANS WITH RED RIBBON CERTIFIED DOCUMENTATION. My only wish is for my grandma to see the day where she is yet again acknowledged as a SILVER FEATHER, PECHANGA, as she has always been, and will always be. Time for change, truth always comes to light...... ALWAYS.

smith--You have not only granted yourself, theresa, dion, and the other EC sovereigns power to not allow BIA decisions only recommendations and then throw them in the trash, but also the power to disregard federal decisions a decade before gaming. Why all these enrollment ordinances after gaming? Nothing to do with money, HATRED, and greed? COMPLETE AND BLATANT LIE!! and YOU KNOW IT!! What you have done is absurd then you hide behind your sovereign curtain like you are the wizard of OZ.

"Right is right, and wrong is wrong," says Robert Smith. We know you have been working on disenrollment for five years. We know the BIA helped you do it. You hired a lawyer to draft the Enrollment Ordinance. That lawyer is the neice of the Regional Director of the BIA. SoCal BIA Superintendent Robert Eben gave you the documents you say prove that the disenrollees lied about their lineage. The Regional Director is using the Pala Enrollment Ordinance as the basis for her decision, and has been dancing like a puppet for you all along.

In your reply to the disenrolled's request for a meeting to resolve the issue you said: "Your purported respect for Pala's Laws also rings hollow in light of your threats to resort to the courts of another sovereign to resolve this internal membership dispute." We are only doing what you forced us to do. You won't meet with us, you won't allow the General Council to vote on disenrollment, there is no Tribal Court to hear our defense, you have not presented us with the evidence, you tried and convicted us without notice, then you sentenced us in absentia. After the fact you said appeal to the BIA, because you don't have to abide by their recommendation.

It is you that consistently relies on lawyers from the outside sovereignty. One of them even prepared that reply. You need the courts of the outside sovereignty to shield you from justice. The outside sovereignty has been feeding your quest for ever more power and wealth, and now you even believe that it is right to throw members of your own family out in the cold, steal their heritage, destroy the truth, and hide the fact that you are of the same blood as them.

So tell us right now, what did we do wrong? What Tribal law did we break? You say we lied on our enrollment applications and misrepresented our blood degree. We only submitted the documentation provided by the BIA. If anyone lied it was them, but then you need them to give you more documents so you can disenroll more people, and further bloat your bank account.

You must fail. We must stop you. Such evil cannot be allowed to thrive.

Very disappointing to see our people treat each other this way! This is exactly what the government wanted when they where trying to kill off the indians and get rid of them. Now the indian people are doing it to themselves and what happens when the blood runs out...there will no longer be a tribe..for all those who know in there hearts whats right and wrong you have cursed you and your familys. Your ancestors would be ashamed knowing that they where exterminated by the government and now by the tribal government!This has tooken us steps back from what our people wanted. I pray that our tribe never does this to there people and that the future council does what is morally and ethically right.Creator forgive them because they are blinded by the flashing lights and gold. I pray they awaken to what they have done and place there souls in your hands. aho

Very good job on the issue we have been fighting since 2004, so we know the heartache and disappointment. Some have been fighting longer just to be recognized, you are not forgotten. John was right; an amendment that addresses individual claims made by citizen against tribal governments must be included to close the loophole that the tribes hide behind. This issue affects all Indian Nations and as such all Indians have a say. Keep on writing to anyone who will accept your letters. The more people know that our history and our future are being lost to a handful of pretenders who claim Indian-ness for money, are being lost the better our chances are of coming together as a united people. We must be more than just people from Pechanga, Pala, or any individual tribe. We must embrace the life of an Indian regardless from where we live. The concepts and ways are still with our elders. Ask them what it means to be Indian before it’s too late, and they are gone. It is our culture that is dying, and our right to live it has already been taken from us.

Well Macarro learned his lesson the first time, not to do another interview. Smith sounded bad, trashing the BIA, playing the sovereign card. This isn't about sovereignty, this is right is right. These tribal leaders are wrong as wrong.

"Integrity of the tribal government". Really Mark? Out casting two huge voting blocks, about 25% of the general membership is what form of Integrity? Ignoring elders written and recorded oral depositions, some taken and translated from our native tongue is what form of integrity? Sending out rangers to Indians who live on the reservation threatening banishment if they use the reservation in any form other than going from the entrance to there home on their allotted land held in trust since the inception of the reservation 1882, what form of integrity? Corrupt liars hiding behind sovereignty to belittle tribal members voices, what form of integrity is this? Allowing a council member who is adopted in the indian way according to custom and tradition, while sending out a letter to the membership saying that they do not have the right to decide membership issues? Where is the integrity Mark? If lying is integrity, that would explain why stealing $50 million dollars is looked at as acceptable. You need to get the Indian way figured out buddy. You have no integrity at all.

creeper said...

At Pechanga, add to this an endless and Illegal moratorium enacted to keep true descendants of the Tribe OUT OF THE TRIBE.
Pechanga added banishments to keep up the stress level for individuals living on the reservation, telling them where they can walk or drive inside the Rez. your children can no longer attend their schools, or in another case you are not allowd to visit your fathers grave inside the reservation.
It is Evil to tear people apart from their families just for the love of power and money.

SKY people bible thumper,

Kachina, or katsina, is a Southwestern Pueblo Indian word meaning spirit father or life. Kachinas represent the spirit of the gods who personify nature: clouds, sky, storms, trees, etc. They function as protective supernatural beings who can help humans if they are asked properly. They also represent the spirits of good people who die and become clouds, bringing much-needed rain. They serve as entertainers and discipliners of children. Kachinas look after the interests of humans, serve as intermediaries to the gods, and can bestow good fortune, such as fertility, power, and long life.

Look up, bible thumper

Please don't lose focus on the matter at hand. It matters not to Robert Smith, the lawyers, the politicians, the bureaucrats, or the courts, what happened to the scattered children of Israel. We know who we are and that is Native Americans with a history that began long before the time of the diaspora. We are Pala and Pechanga and must fight to regain our rightful heritage.

'aamokat said...

What is with all the bible passages taken out of context?

Unless this is Mitt Romney talking, as Mormons believe that Native Americans are descended from Israel, no one else believes this as there is no DNA connection to Israel or anywhere else in the Middle East whatsoever.

As the last poster said, "We are Pala and Pechanga and must fight to regain our rightful heritage," so please stick to the topic at hand and quit muddling up things with stuff that isn't revelant.

you must understand, d n a is product of pale face not the most high. In scripture you are Gad one of the 12 tribes of Israel let no one tell you otherwise if they do they are trying to take your salvation .Some say what does this have to do with this situation (EVERYTHING). Once you learn about the blessings and curses (let me clearify that) come into the truth youll understand where im coming from. We are still here today (the 12 tribes of Israel scattered in all four corners of the earth). The decendants of ABRAHAM ISSAC AND JACOB. YAH says in Hosea 4:6 my people are desroyed for lack of knowledge I will also reject thee that thou shalt be no priest to me seeing thou hast forgotten the law of YAH I will also forget thy children. Now these are not my words I didnt write the book . YAH clearly tells us to follow all his laws statutes and commandments which the majority of the world doesnt do because theyre influenced by satan. This is why the lake of fire grows larger everyday to accomodate those who refuse to follow YAH's law. In Daniel 7:9 it says man will change the laws and the times. YAH also speaks throughout scripture no graven images /not to mess with spirits or enchanters astrology not to celebrate christmas He hates our feast days so on and so forth those are all man made things taking us away from his word. So until you come back to the most highs laws statutes and commandments that yoke will constantly be around your necks. Isaiah 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the Most High and read: none of these shall fail none shall want her mate: for my mouth hath commanded, and his spirit hath gathered them. Genesis 1:1 In the begining YAH made the heavens and the earth.... The holy spirit led me to this blog to inform his children the 12 tribes to come back to HIS LAWS STATUTES AND COMMANDMENTS Amos 3:2 something that has been kept from us a many centuries ..Remember in the times of old they wouldnt even allow us to read ...so just think about it really I hope someone out there picks up what im puttin down PEACE.

I do not understand the separatist thinking of us and them. We are in this together here in the present. As hard as it is to accept some have benefited more than others, and some not at all, but does that change the fact that none are now enrolled. My objective is to me recognized by the government of the US and Pechanga as a member of my families tribe. Another objective is to erase, get rid of, disenroll those who have stomped on the bones of my ancestors, and last to help heal the spirit of our people by participating in ceremony and learning from those elders who would accept me as a decedent of Pablo Apis.

To the person who criticized John because the Newswoman didn't mention the moritorium people at Pechanga. By doing so , you are playing right into the hands of the thieves and thugs running Pechanga who want infighting between us. Their was tons of material given to the news lady that was edited into that tiny news segment. I, being a disenrolled Pechanga, was disappointed the didn't delve more into the specifics of the completely disgraceful way the Council broke every statute of their own Constitution in order to disenrolled us, and how they ignored every document, deposition in our favor, and every other indisputable fact because they had their mind made up before they even sent out the did enrollment proceeding notifications. The original NBC segment was much more informative. We need to petition the CBS lady to do a follow up report and include more of the material that was edited out; Including the moritorium info.

This is what we the disenrolled have done for the moratorium people.

1. Hunter and Manuela Miranda family members, while on the enrollment committee, went to the tribal council and the tribal legal dept. about the enrollment committee not processing applications for people who had gotten their applications in before the deadline.

The council and the legal dept. swept it under the rug and not long afterwards both our families were served with papers for our disenrollment.

2. I personally met with elder Norman Pico Sr, while my family was still under attack to be disenrolled, to put together a petition to end the moratorium

I met with him to get support for the issue and to make sure the petiion was in the proper format so it wouldn't be thrown out.

We got disenrolled though before I could do so.

3. Hunter family members spoke about the moratorium issue during the KCBS segment linked here.

Again, KCBS decided to not include it in the segment not us.

4. O.P. has kept a link to a story on a moratorium family for a long time now.

Compare that with what our moratorium critic here as done which is nothing except complain.

Mark Macarro said it was the integrity of the tribe HA. What about the Leyva line that right Raymond Basquez and Andrew Masiel and Jennie Miranda don’t have proper documentation to prove Pechanga, temculum Indian or even being Native American. Have Dr John Johnson do research on the Leyva line.Thats right integrity means not using the truth.

'aamokat said...

Make note, members of the Hunter and M. Miranda families went to the tribal council and legal dept. concerning, among other things, people who had their applications in before the deadline who ended up in the moratorium anyway was regarding actions the enrollment committee had taken before they were on the committee.

It is clear that they were trying to correct those wrongdoings.

Refer to my post on May 21, 2012 11:50 AM

I turned my application in two weeks before the deadline, they stamped it one week late

'aamokat said...

We know people such as those from the Tosobol family had their applications in before the deadline but the committee, before our family members were on it, put some applications at the bottom of the pile.

I believe they didn't want to shift the balance of power by new voters coming in who potentially wouldn't vote their way.

I know for a fact that they didn't like it that the Hunters and the Manuela Mirandas were voting as a block as with 25 percent of the tribe and if the newcomers would have sided with us, we could have legally taken power.

We were accused of trying to take over the tribal government but winning elections fair and square, such as when we put a Hunter family member on the Pechanga Development Corporation, is not taking over the government.

In the end the CPP ending up doing just what they accused us of doing, that is taking over the government in a hostile takeover by eliminating a large opposition voting block.

Good to see so many comments, this topic is still hot, still NEW news. Yes it's been going on for some time but it is coming to an ugly head now. Tribes like Pala are keeping the topic fresh and making disenrollment new news.

Many Native Americans do not practice the religion of christianity, we practice the old ways. Many Native languages do not have a word for religion for this reason. I don't think trying to convert natives like the padres did in the past is appropriate on this blog.

Anonymous said...

Your right but christianity had nothing to do with what that person was expressing that book is history not religion. Hope u disolve all matters concerning the issues with the tribes you must continue your efforts to resolve the rights of the people that have been mistreated they deserve better hope you suceed in your efforts

'aamokat said...

I am a Christian and what the person is saying, that Native Americans are descendants of the Israelli tribe of Gad is just not true as the Bible doesn't say this is so, so no, what this person is saying isn't history, it has nothing to do with Chirstianity, and it is not relevant to our discussion here either.

A little biblical history though, yes the Bible does say that the tribes of Israel would be scattered to the four corners of the earth but it also says that they would be brought home and in 1948 Israel became a nation again so they have a homeland again and even though their people are still found around the world, that doesn't make Native Americans one of their people.

The Bible identifies people as either being Jews (Israelites) or
Gentiles (everyone else) Native Americans, at least in the biblical sense, would be considered Gentiles.

Now back to the topics at hand, please, so we shouldn't answer anything about this distraction someone is is on from this point forward.

( know I am not going to respond further about this.
