# Indigenous
The Supreme Court’s attack on tribal sovereignty, explained: Four federal Indian law experts digest the Supreme Court’s ‘shocking‘ decision to grant state governments the power to prosecute crimes in Indian Country.
Over the last 20 years, the Supreme Court has led a massive assault on tribal sovereignty. Although it has acted to affirm expansive tribal powers over tribal members, it has substantially curtailed tribal power over non-members, including both non-Indians and Indians who are not tribal members.

New York City Mayor Says He Will Mandate COVID Vaccines for Children This Fall: While former mayor Bill de Blasio was responsible for many of the city’s terrible policies, current mayor Eric Adams has made a concerted effort to double down and make them even worse. Adams said in response to a question that yes, the vaccines will be mandatory and that he and his team are still “meeting and discussing” and trying to come up with the “best way to do it.” This decision is completely unconscionable.

The great carbon-capture debate: At issue are proposals to build three pipelines across Iowa. We know that oil companies hid knowledge of global heating for decades, but the captains of petroleum also schemed to turn the ecological crisis into a profit centre. The industry devised a plan to swindle money from the public purse by pretending to address the climate issue while using subsidies to increase oil production. If one had no moral compass, one might say their scam was a stroke of genius.

Where abortion ‘trigger laws’ stand after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade: Trigger laws, laws that are enacted by certain circumstances. In this case, they were implemented in anticipation of the fall of the 1973 decision, which held that states can’t ban abortion before viability, the point at which a fetus can survive outside the womb. Some laws were enacted almost immediately, while others will take effect within 30 days or require a state official to first certify that the court’s opinion does overturn Roe.

Ginni Thomas Isn’t the Only Problem With the Supreme Court. It’s a fundamentally undemocratic institution. Another explosive controversy swept over the Supreme Court last week. The Washington Post and CBS News reported that after Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, Clarence Thomas’s wife Ginni repeatedly texted White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, urging him to overturn the election somehow. That immediately brought attention to Justice Thomas’s lone vote against allowing the January 6 committee in Congress access to Trump administration communication, including those very texts.

20 ways the Supreme Court just changed America: The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade will create two Americas when it comes to abortion access, the mostly red states where abortion is illegal in most circumstances, and the mostly blue states where it is mostly available with restrictions. But this cleaving in the United States will go far beyond abortion access, affecting healthcare, criminal legal system and politics, at all levels, in the coming years.

The Core of the Case against Judicial Review: This Essay states the case against judicial review of legislation clearly and in a way that is uncluttered by discussions of particular decisions or the history of its emergence in particular systems of constitutional law. The Essay criticizes judicial review on two main grounds. First, it argues that there is no reason to suppose that rights are better protected by this practice than they would be by democratic legislatures. Second, it argues that, quite apart from the outcomes it generates, judicial review is democratically illegitimate.

In Texas, you can be charged with murder without physically killing anyone. Here’s why. Under Texas penal code, if someone is involved in a crime and “intended to kill… or anticipated that a human life would be taken,” that person can be charged with capital murder. “This case is textbook for how someone is guilty of capital murder even when they didn’t pull the trigger,” prosecutor Timothy Rodgers said during closing arguments.

We need some comic relief … here ya go.
A Texas Highway Patrol Officer was conducting speeding enforcement on Hwy 77, just south of Kingsville, TX. The officer was using a handheld
radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the town of Kingsville and was suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300
miles per hour and climbing.
The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then… It suddenly went dead.Immediately a deafening roar over
the Mesquite treetops on Hwy 77 revealed that the radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low-flying
exercise near it’s Naval Air home base location in Kingsville.
Back at the Texas Highway Patrol Headquarters in Corpus Christi, the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the US Naval Base Commander
in Kingsville for shutting down his officer’s equipment. The reply came back in true USMC style:
“Thank you for your letter….You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and
subsequently locked on to, your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down.
Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully-armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment’s location.
Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert
status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position
on the side of Hwy 77, south of Kingsville.
The pilot suggests your officer covers his mouth when cursing since the video systems on these jets are extremely high-tech.
Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose.
Also, the snap is broken on his holster.”

The Supreme Court’s Shock-and-Awe Judicial Coup: The rolling judicial coup coming from this court is by no means over.
And now this: A decision that eviscerates the Environmental Protection Agency’s power to regulate a major source of the carbon emissions destabilizing our planet. The EPA can still regulate CO2, but its capacity to regulate under the Clear Air Act is significantly reduced.
It represents the culmination of decades of “plotting against environmental regulations” by Koch Industries https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://theintercept.com/2022/06/30/supreme-court-climate-epa-coup/__;!!On18fmf1aQ!0EnIq39fIcpIRef7rz3SVFI73TCLfDeII5JwNN0DHSLIjutUcEkOVn3gnFWCz3sRMa9rZFqA6MSWKS0XOhUIxqji25gi2Gko$

Supreme Court limits EPA in curbing power plant emissions: The Supreme Court limited the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to regulate carbon emissions from power plants, making it much tougher for President Biden to achieve his goal of cutting greenhouse gas emissions in half by the end of the decade.

The Supreme Court’s EPA ruling is going to be very, very expensive: The agency can still regulate carbon pollution, just not in the most efficient, system-wide ways. Today’s major environmental ruling from the Supreme Court, West Virginia v. EPA, is probably most notable for what it did not do. It did not say that the Environmental Protection Agency is prohibited from regulating heat-trapping carbon pollution from America’s existing power plants. It also did not strip the EPA of its ability to regulate climate pollution at all.

‘Absolute’: Exactly 30 percent of respondents said they believe the right to bear arms should remain “absolute.” Meanwhile, the number of self-reported gun owners in the U.S. has remained steady over the past four years, with 35 percent currently saying they own a gun, pistol or rifle. So that is basically your gun-toting and gun-loving portion of the U.S. population: one third.

SCOTUS Rolls Back Landmark Ruling on Tribal Sovereignty: The Supreme Court has rolled back a landmark decision on tribal sovereignty it delivered just two years ago in the historic ruling McGirt v. Oklahoma.
In a 5-4 vote, justices ruled Wednesday that the state of Oklahoma has concurrent jurisdiction and may prosecute non-Indigenous people when a crime is committed on a reservation and the victim is Native American.

Facing ecological and political uncertainty at home, some of the province’s largest lumber producers are looking south: Last November, the province finally announced its intent to defer the logging of 2.6 million hectares of some of the most at-risk old growth for about two years. The announcement was met with a scramble among some of the 204 consulted First Nations, who stated that they needed more time to decide how best to manage their territories, along with outcries from the logging sector about lost employment.
