The Navajo seem to have Covid-19 under control now on their reserves. Last time I looked at their web page they had had 38 new cases.



In a decision being hailed as a win for tribal sovereignty, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a large portion of eastern Oklahoma remains a reservation.

That is a win because the US government is well known for taking back land that was granted to the tribes by treaty.



It's been a mess Brenda. This country is supposed to be a work in progress. This is a step forward in a period that's been 3 steps backward.

"The Supreme Court today kept the United States' sacred promise to the Muscogee (Creek) Nation of a protected reservation," the tribe said in a statement.

It is NOT a “sacred promise”. There is nothing sacred. By next week, Congress could rescind the promise, assuming the Democrats in the House decide to join with Republicans in the Senate and Trump to rescind. The court's decision hinged on the question of whether the Creek reservation continued to exist after Oklahoma became a state.

"Today we are asked whether the land these treaties promised remains an Indian reservation for purposes of federal criminal law. Because Congress has not said otherwise, we hold the government to its word," Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote in the majority opinion.

White man speak with forked tongue. Your government is still very capable of breaking treaties as I said to Kiki basically.



Every culture lies Brenda. Don't play the victim to the past. When speaking of the human race history shows no culture is any better than the next.

Stupid people don't know they're stupid, and they certainly don't realize how obvious it is to others.



I know that too THG. I'm not which is why I used that phrase. It still holds meaning today.

All stupidity can usually be traced back to Ted. That is the case here.



I figure I should add to that statement by saying that I'm not referring to the subject matter, but to the fact that it's in this thread.

I believe it's safe to speak for everyone when I say the only reason that we didn't call him out on his stupidity like usual and discussed it here was out of respect for Brenda.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Right now I think we should be happy for the Navajo who finally have this virus under control on their reserves.

The entire state of Arizona could learn a thing or two from them.

JO, the sound is off. Can't hear your video but I guess that's intentional. Not to worry though, I still watched it. Bravo...

I like that.
When considering aerosol, I recall learning that every breath that a human takes this year contains at least one molecule of the last dying breath of Julius Caesar.

Trump wrote "For the 1/100th time" but what he meant was the 1,000th time. Somebody should ask Trump: "Would there be half as many pregnancies if there were half as many pregnancy tests available?" Give him a minute to think before he answers. If his answer is anything other than "No" he is too stupid to be President.

Do you have to try really, really, really hard to make yourself this stupid?

"Would there be half as many pregnancies if there were half as many pregnancy tests available?" would be an adequate analogy if Trump had said "Would there be half as many Covid Deaths if there were half as many Covid tests available?"
For those who can read (which obviously excludes you), this is not a new concept because 6ix has been repeating this for months and months now.
But Trump did not say this.

For Trump saying "Would there be half as many confirmed Covid cases if there were half as many Covid tests available?" then the adequate analogy would be "Would there be half as many known pregnancies if there were half as many pregnancy tests available?"

You are such an ass. As well as dumbass.
