Even James Madison, architect of the U.S. Constitution, author of many of The Federalist Papers & 4th President of the United States, candidly admitted that the status of indigenous people was beyond his comprehension.
Article from David Ware.
“What description of Indians are to be deemed members of a State, is not yet settled, and has been a question of frequent perplexity and contention in the federal councils. And how the trade with Indians, though not members of a State, yet residing within its legislative jurisdiction, can be regulated by an external authority, without so far intruding on the internal rights of legislation, is absolutely incomprehensible.”
James Madison
Federalist 42
On July 9, 2020 the United States Supreme Court ruled in McGirt v Oklahoma that the 1866 Treaty between the United States of America and the Muscogee (Creek) Nation is still in effect and the Reservation has never been disestablished. In other words, our sovereignty as an indigenous people remains intact.
The following quotes are from “The Indian Law Bombshell: McGirt v. Oklahoma,” Posted: 18 Aug 2020, Last revised: 29 Apr 2021, Robert J. Miller (Contact Author), Arizona State University (ASU) – Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law.
“There was no United States territorial government in the ‘Indian Territory,’ despite the name. Instead, the only existing governments were the tribal governments. As a result of the strong rights reserved in their treaties, the Five Tribes were ‘constituted as the sovereign autonomy established in lieu of a prospective State’ and were ‘in an entirely different relation to the United States from other Territories, and that for the most purposes it is to be considered as an independent country.’”
“From its inception, the United States has recognized Indian nations as sovereign governments that are the governing entities over their territories. The U.S. Supreme Court has always acknowledged that Indian governments possess inherent powers that exist totally separate from the United States and from the U.S. Constitution and that predate the U.S. and the Constitution.”
The Indian Law Bombshell: McGirt v. Oklahoma
My biggest concern now is: What happens going forward? Under treaty, Muscogee (Creek) Nation has a government-to-government relationship with the federal government of the United States. The State of Oklahoma is not an intermediary in that relationship.
More will be forthcoming on this topic soon.
‘The Purge’ by Big Tech targets conservatives, including us
Just when we thought the Covid-19 lockdowns were ending and our ability to stay afloat was improving, censorship reared its ugly head.
For the last few months, NOQ Report, Conservative Playbook, and the American Conservative Movement have appealed to our readers for assistance in staying afloat through Covid-19 lockdowns. The downturn in the economy has limited our ability to generate proper ad revenue just as our traffic was skyrocketing. We had our first sustained stretch of three months with over a million visitors in November, December, and January, but February saw a dip.
It wasn’t just the shortened month. We expected that. We also expected the continuation of dropping traffic from “woke” Big Tech companies like Google, Facebook, and Twitter, but it has actually been much worse than anticipated. Our Twitter account was banned. Both of our YouTube accounts were banned. Facebook “fact-checks” everything we post. Spotify canceled us. Medium canceled us. Apple canceled us. Why? Because we believe in the truth prevailing, and that means we will continue to discuss “taboo” topics.
The 2020 presidential election was stolen. You can’t say that on Big Tech platforms without risking cancellation, but we’d rather get cancelled for telling the truth rather than staying around to repeat mainstream media’s lies. They have been covering it up since before the election and they’ve convinced the vast majority of conservative news outlets that they will be harmed if they continue to discuss voter fraud. We refuse to back down. The truth is the truth.
The lies associated with Covid-19 are only slightly more prevalent than the suppression of valid scientific information that runs counter to the prescribed narrative. We should be allowed to ask questions about the vaccines, for example, as there is ample evidence for concern. One does not have to be an “anti-vaxxer” in order to want answers about vaccines that are still considered experimental and that have a track record in a short period of time of having side-effects, including death. One of our stories about the Johnson & Johnson “vaccine” causing blood clots was “fact-checked” and removed one day before the government hit the brakes on it. These questions and news items are not allowed on Big Tech which is just another reason we are getting canceled.
There are more topics that they refuse to allow. In turn, we refuse to stop discussing them. This is why we desperately need your help. The best way NOQ, CP, and ACM readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We are pacing to be short by about $3700 per month in order to maintain operations.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. We had 5,657,724 sessions on our website from November, 2020, through February, 2021. Our intention is to elevate that to higher levels this year by focusing on a strategy that relies on free speech rather than being beholden to progressive Big Tech companies.
During that four-month stretch, Twitter and Facebook accounted for about 20% of our traffic. We are actively working on operating as if that traffic is zero, replacing it with platforms that operate more freely such as Gab, Parler, and others. While we were never as dependent on Big Tech as most conservative sites, we’d like to be completely free from them. That doesn’t mean we will block them, but we refuse to be beholden to companies that absolutely despise us simply because of our political ideology.
We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
