🚨 This is what happens when the “stolen land” narrative gets hit with actual history.
Native guy starts in on white people being on “stolen” land…
Then this Native woman shuts it down with facts:
- Native Americans weren’t here “from the beginning.” Their ancestors crossed the Bering Land Bridge from Siberia 15,000–20,000 years ago.
- Once they got here, tribes conquered, displaced, and built empires over each other (Comanches pushed out the Apache and built the Comancheria — sound familiar?).
- Every single piece of land on earth has changed hands through conquest. That’s how human history works.
She nails it:
“What you call stolen, I call conquered.”
Then she drops the line that actually matters:
America 🇺🇸 and Canada 🇨🇦 took it, kept it, defended it, and built the greatest Countries the world has ever seen — with more freedom, opportunity, and prosperity than any of those tribal empires ever dreamed of.
On the 4th of July she’s celebrating 250 years of that progress… not raiding villages and scalping people.
This is the response every “land acknowledgment” warrior needs to hear.
Who’s sick of the selective history?!??

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

Chicago lost the Bears this week. A team that's been in the city since 1921.
They didn't lose them to a bigger market or a better deal. The Bears decided they'd rather be a tenant in Indiana than deal with Illinois for one more year.
Think about how badly you have to run a place for that to be the smart move.
They lost them for two reasons.
The people running Illinois would rather villainize a builder than keep one. And they're bad at their jobs.
In 2021 the Bears spent $197M on the old Arlington Park racetrack.
Before they could break ground, Cook County valued the empty lot at $192M (Bears said $60M). They were salivating at the chance to extort a building that didn't even exist yet.
That fight dragged on for years.
The Bears were ready to put $2B into the stadium. All they wanted was a promise the county wouldn't reassess them into oblivion, plus $855M for infrastructure everyone uses. Roads, transit, utilities. A $3B project, two thirds of it private money pouring into Illinois.
Springfield had since 2021 to get this done. They dragged it to the final night of session, passed it through the Senate at 3:39AM, and the House went home without voting.
So now it's all gone.
The funniest part? This started because Cook County tried to grab the tax early. They knew a built stadium would pay $53M a year. Now they get under $4M on a vacant lot. No jobs, no buildout, no new anything.
Congrats on fighting for scraps and losing the whole prize.
Pritzker: they're "an $8.5B valued business" that doesn't need propping up.
But be smart for a second. Almost every NFL city throws in public money for a stadium. Not charity. The return is real. Tourism, hotels, restaurants, jobs, game days, property tax on a huge development. The math works.
Indiana did the math. While Illinois sat on it for years, Indiana passed a bill in months, put up $1B, and took the team.
And the Bears took a worse deal to get there. In Illinois they were going to own their stadium. In Indiana they rent it from the state. A team that wanted to build its own home gave up ownership just to escape Chicago.
Nobody won but Indiana. The Bears lost their stadium. Illinois lost the team, the $2B, and $53M a year in taxes.
Pritzker after they left: "I wasn't willing to give up billions of dollars of taxpayer money to give it to a billionaire-owned family or team."
There it is. "Billionaire-owned."
That's how Democrats talk about any business right before they run it out of town. Call them a billionaire, act like you're saving working families, take a victory lap while the tax base drives across the state line.
Meanwhile they're running the whole state into the ground. And you already know how this ends. You're living in it.
Pensions are $143B in the hole, worst in the country and not close. You pay $6,285 a year in property taxes, double the $2,969 national average, for a city that's $1.15B in the red. The mayor called its finances "the point of no return."
When you run things this badly, you sell what's left.
They leased the parking meters for 75 years to Morgan Stanley and a sovereign wealth fund in Abu Dhabi. Took $1.15B and burned through it in two years. The investors already made it all back, with 58 years left to collect.
Sold the Skyway. Sold the downtown garages. Every asset that made money, gone for one check.
But a fixed property tax rate for a team that's been here 106 years? That's "propping up billionaires."
Companies are leaving. Boeing for Virginia. Caterpillar for Texas. Citadel for Miami. In 2023 alone Illinois lost 56,000 people and $6B in income to other states. The ones who left earned a third more than the ones who moved in.
Indiana didn't outbid anyone. AAA credit, 16 years straight. A $676M surplus. Fourth-lowest debt per person in the country. They just weren't a disaster.
Illinois could have collected $53M a year. It chose zero. Ignore all the bad management but make sure to stick it to those evil, pesky billionaires.
A church in Nantucket has CANCELLED its annual 4th of July reading of the Declaration and Bill of Rights after 25 years. The reason? Its leaders now believe the founding documents were bound up with the ideas of "whiteness" and have been "unequally applied" across American history.
But the church forgot the most important part.
It's true that the promises of America weren't applied equally: Slavery, Jim Crow, the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, the denial for generations of women's voting rights.
But what CHANGED all that? What philosophies and documents did brave pioneers like Frederick Douglass and Martin Luther King Jr. utilize to fight these injustices?
Our founding documents. The very documents that this church is now calling problematic. They're not the problem. They're the solution. We must live up to them, not change them to fit our current worldviews.
The E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump is one of the strangest civil cases in American history. The foundational problem is this: Carroll could not identify when the alleged incident occurred — not even the year with any precision.
That should have killed the case as dead as a skunk on the road right there.
Without a temporal anchor, no defendant — regardless of guilt or innocence — can mount an alibi defense. Trump, who has maintained detailed calendars and staff records for decades, was denied the most basic tool of self-defense: the ability to establish where he was. That is not a technicality. It is a due process violation at the constitutional level.
Then Carroll produced the one piece of physical evidence she claimed corroborated her account — the dress she wore during the alleged incident. It was subsequently established that the dress was designed after the incident could have occurred. The sole corroborating evidence falsified her timeline.
The case proceeded anyway.
The resulting verdict was then weaponized in a defamation suit — where Trump was held liable for denying the allegation, while being procedurally barred from defending against it, because it was already "proven" in another court, regardless how flawed the procedure was. He was punished, in effect, for asserting his own innocence.
Compounding everything: coordinated professional and physical threats so thoroughly intimidated the legal community that attorneys refused these cases regardless of available fees. When you systematically destroy a defendant's ability to retain counsel of choice, you forfeit the right to a legitimate verdict.
An allegation is not evidence. Process without substance is not law. And a verdict produced under these conditions carries no legitimate authority — whatever its formal status.
Not only is it the right move to investigate Carroll, but every other person involved as well. Trump is owed serious damages here, and there may be a few people who belong in prison for their roles in the case.
Phyllis Schlafly lays out precisely why the leftist/Marxists had to introduce "trans" while the mother of 2nd wave feminism repeatedly fails to answer a basic question:
@guyfelicella@CollinRugg That’s ALL being done (at the tax payers expense) and it hasn’t worked. Chicago gives free furnished housing, uber rides, medical care, paid for, live in assistance if there’s a medical diagnosis, etc and the homeless rates hasn’t dropped. It sounds a lot better than it is.
@Melissa64261899 They can do everything better…”accept human”. The willfull push for these things to happen is what’s shocking. It’s not like this HAS to be done.
