I takes little in the way of fairly recent history to know that the fed cannot and has never been worthy of our trust. No matter who’s in office, no matter even if not elected, appointed, etc. This is the reality that American Indian activists and scholars alike have been exposing for the last century or more. The slow pressure of a federal government that increasingly fails in more and more yet in meetings its responsibilities in the interest of the America people in general, and the to the detriment of American Indian tribes across the board. I’ve lived in MT six years and have remained focused on the these such processes, MMIW and the role of state and federal authorities. None of it is pretty.
