Trump just erased $80 million owed to one of the poorest Native American tribes in the country. Here’s the story nobody’s telling.

Jason Galanis was a financier, the son of a man who’d already done federal time for fraud. In 2014 he ran one of the most cynical schemes imaginable. He targeted the Wakpamni Lake Community Corporation, the economic development arm of a community within the Oglala Sioux Tribe on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, one of the poorest places in the United States. The bonds he engineered were supposed to fund what a place like that desperately needs: jobs, development, a future.

Instead, prosecutors said, Galanis and his co-conspirators issued more than $60 million in worthless tribal bonds through lies, sold them to investors, and pocketed the proceeds, spending the money on personal luxuries including jewelry instead of reinvesting it as promised. They looted a development fund meant for a tribe that could least afford to lose it. Galanis himself testified his companies were “entrusted with $11 billion of union members’ pension fund money whose trust I betrayed.”

Galanis pleaded guilty and was sentenced to nearly 16 years in federal prison, and ordered to pay more than $80 million in forfeiture and restitution to his victims, including the tribe

Now the twist.

One of his co-conspirators was Devon Archer. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because Archer was Hunter Biden’s former business partner, who became a star witness for House Republicans investigating the Biden family.

In March 2025, Trump fully pardoned Archer, wiping out his conviction. His own staff secretary admitted the “tone and tenor” of the case “changed dramatically” after Archer began cooperating against the Bidens.

Days later, quietly, with no announcement, Trump commuted Galanis’s sentence too, to time served, with “no further fines, restitution, probation, or other conditions.”

Read that last part again.

Trump didn’t just let Galanis out early. He erased the roughly $80 million in restitution owed to the Oglala Sioux and the other victims he defrauded. The tribe was supposed to be made whole for the rest of his life. That debt simply vanished.

And it fits a pattern. A commutation used to just end a sentence. Trump uses clemency to wipe out debts owed to victims and taxpayers. California’s governor’s office tallied that his clemency grants have erased close to $2 billion in victim and taxpayer recovery across Medicare fraud, tax fraud, and cases like this.

A man stole $60 million meant for one of the poorest Native communities in America, spent it on jewelry, got 16 years and $80 million in restitution. His co-conspirator became a witness against the Bidens. Both walked free within days of each other.

The Oglala Sioux don’t get their money back. Galanis keeps what’s left of it.

If the police can detain you or use force against you just for being armed then you don’t have the right to bear arms.

In the West Bank, Jewish settler children are dressing up as Ben-Gvir with guns in their hands, treating him like a superhero.

This is Israel’s next generation.

What's happening in the Michigan Senate race is one of the most extreme, brazen examples yet of how US politics is dominated and financed by loyalists to a foreign country: Israel.

Other than Miriam Adelson buying Trump, it's hard to find something that competes with it:

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

The US spent billions in taxpayer money building the Iron Dome for 'israel'.

In 2019 Congress forced a reluctant US Army to pay 'israel' $373M for two units to integrate into the American network.

'israel' refused to hand over the source code.

The US was left with two expensive systems that could not talk to its own radars or command network. Further buys were cancelled.

The pro-'israel' and arms lobbyists got their bonus. 'israel' kept the software. The US taxpayer got the bill.

Zero reciprocity. Same pattern as the NDAA. One way. Always.

Ps. Following October 2023, the US Army sent both Iron Dome batteries back to 'israel' to help replenish their stockpiles.

After having committed the crime of self defense, and been summarily executed for it, 50 more Palestinians were kidnapped & taken hostage for having committed the crime of living in the same town as someone who committed the crime of self defense.

[Daniel Lambert @dlLambo]

The world spent 80 years building an international court to hold those who commit the worst acts known to humanity to account.

Israel, a non party to the ICC "played an active role" in dismantling it.

Astonishing and terrifying

[James Li @5149jamesli]

This wouldn’t have anything to do with the fact that Trump is an investor in Axon, and that the company is linked to an Israeli police tech firm founded by Jeffrey Epstein and former Israel PM Ehud Barak, with BlackRock as its largest shareholder now…

Would it?! 🤨

Israeli soldiers executed a group of Palestinians lying face down in a field today.

But you would never know that from this headline which doesn’t even mention ISRAEL.

I love when people tell Israel critics that they’re “obsessed with Israel” while this is what US elected officials do when they’re not traveling to Israel:

People often say, why don’t villagers in the West Bank ever hit back when Israeli settlers are brutalizing them or burning their homes? The answer was always obvious, but this is it. Netanyahu will use it as justification to accelerate slaughter and destruction in the West Bank:

[Quds News Network @QudsNen]

Watch | An Israeli soldier executing Palestinians at very close range in the village of Tell, Nablus, in the occupied West Bank this morning.

According to local witnesses, the soldier shot up to seven Palestinians; four were reportedly killed, including two brothers, and others gravely wounded.

[Mel @Villgecrazylady]

Approximately 20 Jewish Israelis raided this Palestinian town at 8:30 this morning and provoked a clash with the residents.

When the Israelis started getting their asses kicked they called in the IDF who murdered 4 Palestinians in cold blood so they could rescue the invading Jews.

And bc one of those invading Jews was killed in the attack THEY provoked, Netanyahu and his psychotic ministers are now calling for the IDF to conduct extensive counterattacks and to raze the houses of every Palestinian “terrorist” involved.

See how that works? Jews invade a West Bank town and terrorize the Palestinian population and the worst they are labeled is hoodlums. And MAYBE they’ll be given a slap on the wrist, perhaps house arrest for a weekend, depending on how badly their attack makes Israel look in the world press.

But if Palestinians fight back against these violent Jewish extremists, they are either murdered by the IDF or branded as terrorists by the Israeli government who will then destroy their homes and leave their entire family homeless.

Every human being has a God given right to use force to defend themselves, their families and their homes. Men who claim that exercising this right makes one a “terrorist” are the enemy of liberty. They are wicked tyrants who should be treated accordingly.

BitMEX was fined 100 million dollars for running what prosecutors called a money laundering platform. Trump pardoned the company and its executives the same week that fine came due, a use of the pardon power that never existed before this presidency, since a pardon has always cleared a record, not erased a debt already scheduled for payment. Nine corporate pardons total now, wiping out roughly 200 million dollars in fines, some of it money meant for actual victims.

[HealthRanger @HealthRanger]

This promise is a total lie. Complete B.S. He also promised DOGE refund checks, eliminating all income taxes with tariff revenues, and numerous other fake promises. The guy is a con artist.

İran Dışişleri Bakanı Abbas Arakçi:

“Mısır, Süveyş Kanalı'ndan her geçiş için 200.000 ile 700.000 dolar arasında ücret alıyor; büyük konteyner gemileri veya tankerler için bu rakam 1 milyon doları aşabiliyor.

Türkiye, İstanbul Boğazı için geçiş ücreti alıyor.

Kanada, St. Lawrence Deniz Yolu için ücret alıyor.

Panama, her geçişten 100.000 ile 450.000 dolar arası ücret tahsil ediyor; büyük Neopanamax gemilerinin Panama Kanalı'ndan geçiş maliyeti 500.000 doları buluyor.

Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, St. Lawrence Deniz Yolu için ücret alıyor.

İran ise onlarca yıldır Hürmüz Boğazı için ücret almayı reddetti. Geçişleri ücretsiz hale getirdi! Maruz kaldığı tüm karalamalara, yaptırımlara ve izolasyona rağmen bunu yaptı. Ve hâlâ buradaki "kötü adamın" İran olduğuna inanmamı mı bekliyorsunuz?”

[Jon Bowne @NewsBowne]

Never forget. Section 219 was created by the leader of a foreign country. It was not the creation of a single person in the Federal government. There are foreign leaders writing their own “plans” for our treasonous government.
And the fools are enrolling the statutes.

Totally normal.
