Conservative White Earth Chippewa vs. Liberal White Earth Chippewa
We are on our own, always have been. I am in the conservative camp of ideology regarding gender issues. My take, two genders, one with a penis the other with a vagina. It's what Creator made.
Pretty simple from my part of the rez!
The once great state of Minnesota has a Lt. Governor who is a member of the White Earth Reservation, Minnesota Chippewa Tribe where I am a member. She is a Democrat and liberal who is making waves in the TRANS community. This tribal member recently signed an executive order that will force Minnesota state agencies to push “gender-affirming” health care.
She stated “Let’s be clear: this is life-affirming and life-saving health care,” adding “When our children tell us who they are, it is our job as grown-ups to listen and to believe them. That’s what it means to be a good parent.”
Here is where I stand.
We don't let children drive.
We don't let children buy guns.
We don't let children buy cigarettes.
We don't let children vote, because they are not capable of making a rational decision.
But we allow them to cut off their junk and take life-long hormone drugs?
Do you think allowing underage kids to have elective surgery without parental consent is wrong? I sure as hell do.
Do you think Doctors who perform this surgery should be reprimanded? I sure as hell do.
You see, life is hard and much harder when you are stupid.
On the reservation and off we are creating a future homeless population of drug addicted and depressed misfits. It's just one more thing to protect your children from. My father who spent a lifetime working for the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Law Enforcement would have called it correctly. He would have called her an evil child groomer. Minnesota is off the rails.
God help us.
Clarence Louie for BIA HEAD (Bureau of Indian Affairs)
We should put him in charge of Indian Affairs!!!!
What a refreshing indigenous leader!
With him in charge, Canadian taxpayers would save millions of dollars!
Chief Clarence Louie, Osoyoos BC speaking in Northern Alberta :
Speaking to a large aboriginal conference and some of the attendees, including a few who hold high office, have straggled in.
'I can't stand people who are late, he says into the microphone. Indian Time doesn't cut it. '
Some giggle, but no one is quite sure how far he is going to go. Just sit back and listen:
'My first rule for success is Show up on time.'
'My No. 2 rule for success is follow Rule No. 1.'
'If your life sucks, it's because you suck.'
'Quit your sniffling.'
'Join the real world. Go to school, or get a job.'
'Get off of welfare. Get off your butt.'
He pauses, seeming to gauge whether he dare, then does.
'People often say to me, How you doin'? Geez I'm working with Indians what do you think?'
Now they are openly laughing ..... applauding. Clarence Louie is everything that was advertised and more.
'Our ancestors worked for a living, he says. So should you.'
He is, fortunately, aboriginal himself. If someone else stood up and said these things - the white columnist standing there with his mouth open, for example - you'd be seen as a racist. Instead, Chief Clarence Louie is seen, increasingly, as one of the most interesting and innovative native leaders in the country even though he avoids national politics.
He has come here to Fort McMurray because the aboriginal community needs, desperately, to start talking about economic development and what all this multibillion-dollar oil madness might mean, for good and for bad.
Clarence Louie is chief and CEO of the Osoyoos Band in British Columbia's South Okanagan. He is 44 years old, though he looks like he would have been an infant when he began his remarkable 20-year-run as chief.. He took a band that had been declared bankrupt and taken over by Indian Affairs and he has turned in into an inspiration.
In 2000, the band set a goal of becoming self-sufficient in five years. They're there.
The Osoyoos, 432 strong, own, among other things, a vineyard, a winery, a golf course and a tourist resort, and they are partners in the Baldy Mountain ski development. They have more businesses per capita than any other first nation in Canada.
There are not only enough jobs for everyone, there are so many jobs being created that there are now members of 13 other tribal communities working for the Osoyoos. The little band contributes $40-million a year to the area economy.
Chief Louie is tough. He is as proud of the fact that his band fires its own people as well as hires them. He has his mottos posted throughout the Rez. He believes there is no such thing as consensus, that there will always be those who disagree. And, he says, he is milquetoast compared to his own mother when it comes to how today's lazy aboriginal youth, almost exclusively male, should be dealt with.
Rent a plane, she told him, and fly them all to Iraq. Dump'em off and all the ones who make it back are keepers. Right on, Mom.
The message he has brought here to the Chipewyan, Dene and Cree who live around the oil sands is equally direct: 'Get involved, create jobs and meaningful jobs, not just window dressing for the oil companies.'
'The biggest employer,' he says, 'shouldn't be the band office.'
He also says the time has come to get over it. 'No more whining about 100-year-old failed experiments.' 'No foolishly looking to the Queen to protect rights.'
Louie says aboriginals here and along the Mackenzie Valley should not look at any sharing in development as rocking-chair money but as investment opportunity to create sustainable businesses. He wants them to move beyond entry-level jobs to real jobs they earn all the way to the boardrooms. He wants to see business manners develop: showing up on time, working extra hours. The business lunch, he says, should be drive through, and then right back at it.
'You're going to lose your language and culture faster in poverty than you will in economic development', he says to those who say he is ignoring tradition.
Tough talk, at times shocking talk given the audience, but on this day in this community, they took it and, judging by the response, they loved it.
Eighty per cent like what I have to say, Louie says, twenty per cent don't. I always say to the 20 per cent, 'Get over it.' 'Chances are you're never going to see me again and I'm never going to see you again' 'Get some counseling.'
The first step, he says, is all about leadership. He prides himself on being a stay-home chief who looks after the potholes in his own backyard and wastes no time running around fighting 100-year-old battles.
'The biggest challenge will be how you treat your own people.'
'Blaming government? That time is over.'

Best of Times!
In my lifetime or yours.......Doctors Orders
Will you ever in your life walk into a physicians waiting room and hear any of the following? I am still hopeful but highly doubtful.
Dr. told me I need quality sleep, more than 7 hours.
Dr. told me I need to start walking every single day, rain or shine, at least 10,000 steps.
Dr. told me I have to change my nutrition and lay off processed foods, sugar and oils and start eating meat, fruit and vegetables.
Dr. told me I have to get sunlight as much as possible.
Dr. told me to take vitamins.
Dr. told me to drink water and no alcohol for a few days.
Dr. told me to throw out my pills and start to exercise at a gym.
Dr. told me it is necessary as i get older to lift light weights, every day.
Dr. told me I need to be my own doctor and listen to my body.
I doubt any of the above will happen anytime soon. It's like the treatment for natural immunity to China Covid.
It won't happen because it is FREE!
You're Dead Let's Disco
With all of the media focused on SVB and the shenanigans pulled by the Fed, regulators, Board of Directors, executive management, the VC community, private equity there is plenty of blame to go around. Ultimately it is not a good thing where the second and third largest banks fail.
Here is a throw back to the old days. When greed and mismanagement were on full display across Wall Street.

U.S. Incompetence
It is like watching Rome burn.
America. Greatest country the world has ever known.
The greed from the political class is simply amazing.
It's a turd circus in Washington, D.C.!
Left or right, they all have their hands out.
I learned in law school that justice is bought with the price of your legal team.
The charlatans running this country are not shy about showing their lack of intelligence.
When the national media is in denial of what journalism is supposed to do you know we are in trouble.
The current President has spent 309 days at his home in Delaware, that is 40% of his time as President on vacation.
He has dementia for those of you who think otherwise.
Remember during Trump’s presidency when we had an inflation crisis, energy crisis, border security crisis, and banking crisis like we have now?It's one victory after another for low information voters.

White Earth Reservation. Zero Science All Lies.
There are many Democrats in the Executive Offices of the White Earth Tribal Complex.
The White Earth Band leadership bought the hoax of masking hook, line, sinker, spear, boat, and ricing canoe.
With the great Band members getting advice like this from supposed "experts" it's no wonder the overall health of Band members is poor. Obesity is killing my Tribe.
Even the greatest liar, shill and thief to the American economy, Dr. Anthony Fauci told us so.
Fauci wrote: "Masks are really for infected people to prevent them from spreading infection to people who are not infected rather than protecting uninfected people from acquiring infection.
"The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through material. It might, however, provide some slight benefit in keep out gross droplets if someone coughs or sneezes on you."
He added: "I do not recommend that you wear a mask, particularly since you are going to a very low risk location."
White Earth "experts" were quick to tell us different. The following is taken from the Anishinaabeg Today, February 3, 2021;
TRUTH—Right now, masks are still more effective than vaccine. Distancing and hand washing help make masks work even better. Vaccine does work, but it’s not here yet for everybody. If 90% of our White Earth community wear masks whenever out and about, we can cut down COVID case-rates and death-rates by up to 90%, even before the vaccine gets here. We Anishinaabeg face the truth and deal with it. Masks work. Mask up White Earth Nation.
WISDOM—Our elders carry the cultural and spiritual wisdom of our Anishinaabe Nation. We all need that wisdom, now and in the future, to live Anishinaabe life in a good way. Our elders are vulnerable to serious illness and death from COVID. If we mask up we can help protect our elders, so their wisdom can help our Anishinaabe nation face the future. Wearing a mask is a wise choice. Mask up White Earth Nation.
COURAGE—Some people make fun of us for wearing masks. We Anishinaabeg know how to deal with heckling. We do what we know is right, no matter what the hecklers say. If we all wear masks when out and about, and do other transmission-prevention stuff, we can save a hundred lives of our friends, neighbors, coworkers, and family in the next few months. Masks work. Have the guts to mask up White Earth Nation.
COMPASSION—We Anishinaabeg know that talking the talk but not walking the walk is not mino-bimaadiziwin. Living life in a good way means both talking the talk and walking the walk. We can and should think and talk about saving lives from COVID. But walking the talk means wearing a mask whenever we’re out and about. Masks work. Saving lives is Anishinaabe kindness. Walk the talk. Mask up White Earth Nation.
RESPECT—You and I may not always agree in an argument. But we know each other, our families, our history, and our choices. I respect you even when I don’t agree with you. I wear a mask because I respect you and want to do what I can to protect you. I hope you wear a mask because you respect me and want to do what you can to protect me. Let’s both respect each other and keep each other safe. Masks work. Mask up White Earth Nation.
HONESTY—People don’t like wearing these masks. It’s hot, it fogs up glasses, and it slides out of place a lot. We all hope we can quit wearing masks soon. But, honestly, I want to be a part of saving the lives of our elders and our neighbors and family with diabetes, emphysema, kidney disease, and other chronic health problems. So, I wear the darn mask whenever I’m out and about. Masks work… honestly. Mask up White Earth Nation.
HUMILITY—Some people think masks make them look dumb. Others think masks are a “hoax.” Some think they’re too good to wear a mask. Some people think maskwearing is too darn frustrating. Some even think masks steal their freedom. I think I’m not too uppity to do something simple and practical, that can save the lives of my family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. I don’t care what people think of me for wearing a mask. I’m doing what I can to save lives. Masks work. Mask up, White Earth Nation.

Another RINO. Republican in name only.
Worthless to the average American.
Show me I am wrong. Tell me what he has done for the average American in the last 20 years that has helped America and helped you.

Even the RUSSIANS are calling B.S.
It is disgusting that Russia has to call out the CIA operatives and the New York Times for their lies of the bombing of the Nord Stream Pipeline.
Really, does anything surprise you these days coming from the media or the Biden Administration?
I haven't heard that many lies since the last time I went to a fishing tournament.

The Beautiful and the Ugly
What a beautiful evening on the Cumberland Plateau! Full moon, no insects and venison backstrap off the Traeger!
Topped it off with Tucker Carlson. Wow, we he on fire last night!
The truth will prevail. From the top down, an entire administration made up of unqualified mental incompetents, freaks, misfits, liars, thieves, the gender and generally confused and the totally deranged. All in plain view.
Biden, Fetterman, Buttigieg, Levine, Brinton, Jean-Pierre, etc. Every single one, unfit for duty.

TO THE EDITOR:
Last Saturday night my son was brutally attacked and assaulted in San Jose del Cabo. He was with his Mexican friends, enjoying a beautiful night out on the town and was brutally assaulted in a very upscale club. Being hit in the face, that hard, that unexpected is why he is flying to the United States for medical attention today. Unfortunately this is all too common. Unprovoked. Out of nowhere. Cold cocked. His only reason to be assaulted was being tall, having fun, having Mexican friends, being good looking and being American!Welcome to Mexico!
Now go home to the United States with your injuries and leave us alone!!
Sickening!
Print that and forewarn your readers!
Here is the ANSWER!
Update from my post on 2/9/2023.
Why haven't you, in the confines of your home, nursing your drink of choice over the past couple of years, watched imbedded photographers cover the war between Russia and the Ukraine which have killed an estimated 300,000 people?You don't know the answer do you? You care less.
The answer is for all the world to see. So much money at stake, so much war to profit from, so much gore not to share with those who fund the MIC and killing from afar. Yet, you don't see, or even understand. It's too comfortable for you. You don't care, out of sight out of mind.

College Loans Forgiven?
GMAFB kids.
Surely the SCOTUS can't be that stupid and ignorant.
But then again, in 2023, with those few nitwits on the bench who really knows?
Who benefits from the current student loan scheme? It’s not students. It’s not the tax payer. It’s not the public. It’s the universities, and more specifically, older professors and college administrators.
The left wants to shift the payment to people who didn’t go to college by having them foot the bill for those who went to college. In other words unleash predatory hell.The right wants to hold 18 year old idiots as indentured servants for life because it's “personal responsibility.” In other words, unleash predatory hell.
But neither side gets at the core issue: because the Federal Government GUARANTEES the student loans (even if borrowers don't repay) WITHOUT ANY price control whatsoever, universities get a blank check at everyone’s expense.
And you can take that to the bank folks!
Congratulations to June Welch, South Carolina Wrestler
The only young ladies that made it though the blood round and qualified: Zao Estrada and June Welch once again placed in the SCHSL Championship Tournament Open Division, casting in the SC State Record Books the ability of young women to compete at the highest level of the sport.
June’s only comment to why Open Division Wrestling: “I do it because I can.”
Never forget the facts boys n girls
He claimed that if he had a son he’d look like Trayvon Martin
The Ferguson riots took place under his administration which helped lead the acceleration of BLM across the country
He bailed out Wall Street and he funded the Fast and Furious gun smuggling operation that took place in Mexico during his administration.
He started the attack on police in America
He openly promoted the trans and LGBT movement
Very easy to see how we went from Obama to Trump.
America was sick of the division and corruption.
