Very little real work is done by the agencies of the central socialist government and here we have the USDA sticking it's nose into something that's none of its' damned business. This government is killing America and it appears there's little or nothing to be done due to the large base of loafers and know-nothings that keep this rotten government alive.

And another thing. The federales should own NO government land! All should be given to the states in which that land is located.

This would appear to be the turf of the Department of the Interior. They've done a good job of reducing the numbers and general health of American Indians for decades.

Because the Great Half-White Father in Washington only has their best interests at heart.

Of course we know it’s all about the endless growth of a bloated government and the unions.

Why is the Forest Service under Agriculture and not Interior?

Forest Service to work more closely with tribal governments in protecting, respectfully interpreting, and giving appropriate access to sites that are sacred to American Indians and Alaskan Natives.

Woo, woo, woo! Wait a minute. 'Sacred', as in pertaining to a religious purpose. Where's the lawsuit from the Freedom from Religion group?

Dotted lines run all over the ‘disorganization’ chart utilized by the Bronco Bama regime. There is no control and there is no proper functioning central socialist government.

America would have a military coup takever, but all the generals are political disfunctional arse wipes.

Why do I doubt that the federal government really has Indians best interests at heart?

Fact Checker sez: Native Americans, AKA “Savages” were known to run entire herds of buffalo over cliffs.

That’s correct - the entire herd!

Whites were amazed that the smell could gag them from a distance of many miles.

Don’t forget the ‘Native American skill at ‘club and sharp stone’ warfare as a continuous state of affairs.

Cannibalism - don’t forget cannibalism.

Did I mention Native Americans were expert torturers?

“We love our Tonto...!”

I gotta admit that sounds pretty good, but this is probably just more BS.

In fact lots of very sensitive intelligence work is done on Indian Reservatins, because it’s very hard to info regarding what goes on at all on such lands.

You have some really sensitive facility you don’t want lawyers and presstitutes knowing about? Put it on an Indian Reservation; discovery work there is sorta like suing the King of Lichtenstein —takes years and gobs of money. Tons of moaning and groaning and ya come up with zip.

This is just BS that has the goal of making it easier for Uncle Sugar to get away with hush-hush sneaky stuff and away from our prying eyes.

Don’t forget education:

High School Graduation Rates Low Where Most American Indians, Alaska Natives Live, Report Says

A new national report has found that fewer than 50 percent of Native American Indian and Alaska Native students from the Pacific and Northwest regions of the U. S. graduate from high school. Released on Thursday, “The Dropout/Graduation Crisis Among American Indians and Alaska Native Students: Failure to Respond Places the Future of Native People at Risk” report was conducted by The Civil Rights Project/Proyecto Derechos Civiles at UCLA’s Graduate School of Education and Information Studies.

Tribal government means no one owns anything. The ‘tribe” owns the land and any enterprise must be shared with those who don’t help carry the load.

But...but...but what about that “sacred” separation of church and state bull**** the commie libs are always whining about. Whitey can’t have a “sacred” memorial with a cross honoring American war dead but the NAs can have theirs? BULL****!!!!!

The US government can honor every religion but Christianity. They pull up every cross on federal land they can find, but the Indian “sacred places” will be cherished.
