Last week, Trump-appointed judges permanently barred the NAACP and other private litigants from suing government voting rights violators. Only the government itself may to sue to stop itself from committing gross racial vote suppression — no kidding!!!

Osage Principal Chief Geoffrey Standing Bear—one of Oklahoma’s top trial lawyers—is officially designated “incompetent” by the US govt’s Bureau of Indian Affairs. Here, he shows me the official book that lists him as “incompetent” — along with other Osage who graduated from Stanford and Oxford.

This is truly the end of the Voting Rights Act: A federal court has ruled that citizens may not sue governments that commit crimes against voting by Americans of color — and that only the government, that is, those who commit the voting crimes, may sue.

Congratulations to Matt Gaetz and the Republican Pedophile Caucus for successfully ousting the Speaker of the House. One must admire how much Rep. Gaetz accomplished with nothing more than dope, porn, corruption, and a weird hairdo.

The “guardianship” horror depicted in Killers of the Flower Moon was ended by Congress—but replaced by putting the Osage under “Trusteeship”. It was not long ago that Osage under Trusteeship literally couldn’t buy a sack of potatoes without approval of a BIA agent, the “Ma-he-kah,” the “Long Knife.”

In the 1920s, after discovery of the massive oil field on the Osage Reservation, the US govt took away the Osage’s right to their wealth, instead appointing a white Guardian for each Osage to “protect” their money. https://www.gregpalast.com...

A Trump codefendant says his case should be tried in federal court because he was a federal “elector” to the Electoral College. The guy has a sense of humor: he’s being charged with falsely impersonating an “elector.” It's like stealing a cop’s uniform and saying, “You can’t arrest me, I’m a cop!”
