WHO is the Nooksack attorney?
Appeals court MIC DROPS the Nooksack Tribe's attempt to say the court has NO JURISDICTION in bold below and linked here SILENCE from Sen Maria Cantwell on this abusing tribe
Our Supreme Court's decision is binding on remand. Notably, NBC filed a
counterclaim for declaratory relief.57 It would be incongruous for NBC to assert the trial court had jurisdiction to grant its declaratory claim but lacked the jurisdiction to deny it.
Sovereignty HIDES Egregious Civil and Human Rights Abuses
Stripping Your Own People of Their Rights Is an Atrocity That Must Be EXPOSED and Stopped.
TAKE A STAND Against Tribal Disenrollment
Tuesday, April 4, 2017
Can Pechanga, Pala, Saginaw Chippewa and Chukchansi FOLLOW THE LEAD of Elem Colony, Robinson Rancheria and Enterprise?
This last week brought to good news that the Elem Indian Colony will halt their disenrollment actions against their own people. This simple statement can end all the acrimony and pain of the many disenrolling tribes, we've discussed for over a DECADE:
The Executive Committee of Elem Indian Colony, a federally recognized Indian Tribe in Lake County, California, is proud to announce that all actions taken towards the potential disenrollment of Tribal members have been permanently withdrawn.
The Executive Committee is also taking the necessary actions to begin the Secretarial Election process to amend Elem’s Constitution with input from all members, and by that process to permanently prohibit disenrollment.
The Executive Committee looks forward to working with all Elem membersto heal the tragic wounds of decades of internal disputes by affirming and nurturing Elem’s traditional values of Tribal unity and collaboration for the benefit of all members
Substituting my tribe, the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians which operates the Pechanga Resort & Casino, would help establish them as a leader, rather than the disgrace they are right now.
Chukchansi has 600 of their people in the wilderness.
Redding Rancheria could restore the family of their 1st chairman after restoration.
Nooksack could end their foolishness
Pala could restore 150 of their surviving disenrollees. Saginaw Chippewa nearly 200.
BRING BACK PEACE in Casino Indian Country. Bring ALL the people HOME where they belong. Honor the ANCESTORS
WHO IS NEXT to RESTORE HONOR TO THEIR TRIBE?

BIA Files For Dismissal of Nooksack's Kelly Faction Lawsuit
BIA Claims there's NO there there in NOOKSACK TRIBE's Kelly Faction (Clown Car Crew) lawsuit. From the filing:
This lawsuit was filed under false pretenses. Although the plaintiff is identified in the caption as “The Nooksack Indian Tribe,” the Nooksack Indian Tribe (Tribe) is not truly before the Court. After the former Nooksack Tribal Council chose to unilaterally “suspend” the 2016 tribal elections for expiring Council seats, commencing on March 24, 2016, and continuing to the present day, the Tribe has lacked a tribal government that is recognized as such by the United States.
Instead, since March 24, 2016, the Tribe has been run by a group of individuals, comprised mostly of unelected “councilmembers,” who have no legitimate claim to be the governing body of the Tribe nor any authority to approve the filing of a complaint in a United States District Court against the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) in the name of the Tribe. This unelected, unrecognized, and illegitimate group, hereafter referred to as “the Kelly Faction,” and not the Tribe, stands before this Court as plaintiff and invokes its equitable power.

Dear Ms. Jill Scott,

Phone: (212) 707-2000
We are writing this letter in the hope that you will cancel your show at the Pechanga Resort and Casino, scheduled for August 18, 20017.
I’d like to make you aware of the disgraceful actions that are happening on the Pechanga Reservation. The Pechanga Tribal Council, led by Mark Macarro, has stripped the citizenship from 25% Pechanga Tribal Members, including the descendants of the original headman of the Pechanga Tribe. They most recently disenrolled the Paulina Hunter descendants. Paulina Hunter was an original allottee of Pechanga and her family still resides on the reservation, where apartheid is still practiced, 20 years after it was abolished in South Africa .

NATIVE AMERICAN JIHAD: Nooksack Tribe Begins EVICTIONS of ELDERLY
The Nooksack Tribe has been informed that ANY actions taken subsequent to their illegal (Nooksack Constitution) election, would not be recognized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Yet, their "jihad" against the Nooksack 306 KNOWS NO BOUNDS!
Not to be stopped, they are issuing EVICTIONS of their ELDERLY members, WHO HAVE NOT BEEN disenrolled. KATRICE ROMERO, you are a pig.

IS a violent response needed? Or is the legal remedy still the correct one?

MESA GRANDE Indian Dave Toler to Discussed His Book on San Pasqual Tribe, Stolen by WHITES
San Pasqual Reservation tribal council member and longtime Valley Center resident David Toler, Jr. who, according to records is of Mexican Indian descent whose descendants are listed on Mesa Grande rolls, discusses his book on San Pasqual, the land his ancestors stole.
He will have a book signing and make a presentation on his new book “Blood of the Band: An Ipai Family Story” Saturday, 11 a.m.¬–1 p.m. at the San Diego Archaeological Center located at 16666 San Pasqual Valley Road, Escondido. NO word if this will be in the FICTION SECTION...
The Ipai (also known as Kumeyaay) are the native people of northern San Diego County. This book illustrates how one Ipai family’s remarkable story forms part of the little-known, yet profoundly significant long-term history of human habitation in the land that only recently has come to be known as Southern California.
Beginning with the ancestors’ accounts of the creation of the world that link the Ipai with the unique characteristics of our region’s natural world, the journey then takes readers through the archaeological, historical, ethnographic and contemporary accounts of the dramatic transformations through which the Ipai have persisted and ultimately prospered.
Author David L. Toler, Jr. is an Ipai descendant of the La Chappa, Guachena and Nejo clans that once inhabited the San Pasqual Valley and the surrounding lands from ocean to mountains and deserts. Toler has long been an avid enthusiast of the culture and history of his people, a supporter of traditional cultural revitalization activities throughout the region, and an explorer who seeks out the ancient routes of his ancestors. Toler has served for many years as a member of the Tribal Council of the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians.
The Jose Juan descendants have a different take on his "history".
Between Leonard Hill, Pacific Regional Director, Sacramento, and Robert Bennett, Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Washington, D.C., by SECRETARIAL DECISION, the BIA completely disregards the enrollment statute.
While page 2 of the 1966 Base Roll is a certification by Leonard Hill states that the San Pasqual enrollment applications have been approved in accordance with 25 CFR part 48, he goes on to state, "I further certify that the degree of SP Indian blood, as shown on the attached roll, has been computed in accordance with a Secretarial decision interpreting 'blood of the Band' to be total Indian blood of a person named on the basic membership Census Roll dated June 30, 1910."
So, by 'secretarial decision' and a BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY, the BIA totally changed and undermined the SP Enrollment Statute . . and it was used to enroll the Trask's and the Orosco's.

CONGRESS must Take Another LOOK at the INDIAN CIVIL RIGHTS ACT: Harold Monteau
We've posted articles before by attorney Harold Monteau . Here's an article from Indian Country Today...we have been calling for this for over a decade. Maybe......this time?
The U.S. Congress may have to, and maybe should, revisit the Indian Civil Rights Act of 1968 (ICRA) considering the abrogative behavior of tribal governments, as of late, towards their own people regarding the Civil Rights of individual Indians, and in light of the corruption being exposed by numerous U.S. Attorney prosecutions.

AFTER 10,000 Native Americans Lose THEIR Citizenship, DOJ Seeks TO STRIP it's FIRST...FROM A TERRORIST
My friend JAZZ SHAW has a post up on HOTAIR.com , about the Department of Justice seeking to strip citizenship from a TERRORIST! This is what you have to do to get your citizenship REVOKED. NOT SO in Native America...
Jazz points out:
You can’t take away the citizenship of a natural born American citizen, but we have revoked that status for naturalized citizens in the past, including Nazis who were discovered living here after having fled Europe following World War II.
As I wrote here:
We are talking about treason or overthrowing the government as a serious offense. No disenrollees have threatened overthrow of their tribal government. No bearing arms against tribal councils. In Indian Country, you can lose your citizenship for simply disagreeing with the tribal council. Putting a “wrong” member on the council or speaking your mind about their business entities can get one stripped of their citizenship.
How many American’s have been stripped of their citizenship, can you name ONE? Did Christopher Boyce, who sold secrets to the Russians, or Robert Hannssen? NO. Has Charles Manson lost his citizenship? No. How about American terrorists who advocate death to American and sharia law? Nope, uh-uh, but in Indian Country, the number is in the THOUSANDS. We have tribes like Snoqualmie in Washington, that have stripped citizenship simply for taking a position opposite of the tribal council.

Will TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TAKE OVER Nooksack Tribe?
Some Nooksack friends are sharing this on their FACEBOOK PAGES:
People of Nooksack
People of Nooksack
For your information, the Nooksack Tribe currently has NO COUNCIL! They need a quorum of 5. There was no election held on March 19th, 2016..
Therefore their positions are NULL and VOID Lona Johnson's term is up Katherine Canete's position is up! Abby Smith's position is up! And Rick George--vice chairman's position is up.
They cannot extend their positions according to the Constitution..They do not have the Constitutional power to extend their Rule.. They cannot Rule by Marshall Law! Please Share!
KGMI is reporting:
The federal government may have to take over the Nooksack tribe.
The tribe kicked out nearly 300 people, but did it without a duly elected tribal council, so the feds don’t recognize the dis-enrollments.
David Wilkins, a professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Minnesota tracks tribal dis-enrollments.
“This may well be the strongest case where the federal government has finally stepped in, to finally stand up for the rights of those individuals facing dis-enrollment,” says Wilkins.
KUOW reports the federal government sent letters to the tribe, saying if the council doesn’t hold a fair election, it could come in and take control of tribal services.
Wilkins says a wave of dis-enrollments followed the rise of tribal casinos in the 1990s.
