after alleging that drug cartels were using Indigenous land to facilitate crime.
Wow, someone dared suggest that large areas of space with limited law enforcement where alcohol-related deaths are about 7x the national average may be involved in facilitating drug trade? I'm absolutely shocked as to why someone would think that!
Gotta love the comments. Racism in South Dakota is so horrible. I was stationed there in the Air Force and people were friendly. I’d have to do further research because it’s a Newsweek article
Yes, it's tragically funny that reservations are supposed to be independent nation-states that you can only be a part of through tribal identity isn't racist, but white people simply existing as a majority are inherently racist.
Supposed to be independent. Native American nations don't have sovereignty, and have suffered under imposed socialistic policies over the past century.
some Native American leaders were "personally benefitting" from Mexican cartels operating in their territory. She also claimed that children living on Indigenous reservations "don't have parents who show up and help them" and that tribal leaders are focused "on a political agenda more than they care about actually helping somebody's life look better."

Of course. So sick of this mindset and now you see teens who can’t shut up about it

I agree but the point still stands that reservations are based upon race
Those bastards!
I know! How dare they make me feel welcome and thank me for my service
If she is wrong, then she should apologize profusely and candidly, maybe even resign if she has a pattern of making stupid statements.
But if she is correct, if there are cartels using tribal land to further the drug trade, what then? What then tribal leader Frank Snorts Up Coke?
Is she wrong?
Also, Paul Banksonslots
Gonna have to check with Chief Sitondicks for a second opinion
Deport all natives to Africa, imo.
She should stand just outside their boundary line for an hour at a time every week or so shouting "HEY! How are ya!" at passersby.
