In a historic first, President-elect Joe Biden will nominate Rep. Deb Haaland to lead the Department of the Interior, his transition team announced Thursday evening.​

If confirmed by the Senate, Haaland, a member of the Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico, would be the country's first Native American Cabinet secretary. Fittingly, she'd do so as head of the agency responsible for not only managing the nation's public lands but also honoring its treaties with the Indigenous people from whom those lands were taken.​

the indigenous American people have had any number of treaties broken by the US & suffered horrendous harm & injustice historically during colonial & US expansion, and afterward. they continue to be among the poorest and least-heard voices in the country -- i am really glad to hear this news yesterday, and thank God that perhaps they will receive some form of justice and mercy that they have not in the past, with a voice from their own people leading the department that so significantly affects their interaction & standing with the US government

It appears that she is fully capable of administering that department. In my opinion it was a solid choice for that position.

A great day for Native Americans.

...and thank God that perhaps they will receive some form of justice and mercy...

Justice and mercy under CRIMINALS Biden and Harris? You must be dreaming.
What the Indians should do is go on the warpath and clean out the DC Swamp.
That would benefit everyone.

I don't know of Haaland, but Biden is not the President elect. That officially takes place in the House of Reps on Jan 6th, if nothing is done about the voting fraud.

If enough fraud can be proven to overturn the election that is.

I think there is plenty of proof, e.g. affidavits of eyewitnesses. Problem is, is getting SCOTUS to rule on the evidence. Then I'd be happy regardless of the outcome.

Once everybody gets paid back maybe all Americas inhabitants should depart and colonize mars or something.

I have comanche and Irish blood.

Maybe I can get things straight with the white man and the indians.

Give me Ireland with a teepee.
(The entire nation) and a teepee mansion.
That'll be good enough for now.

 

[Absolutely]

....But then the martians will have to get reparations.

Gee when will the planet get justice since God had israel take land and inhabit it?

There is no reason to rejoice. This is just another diversity hire to give the Left a superficial sense of moral legitimacy while they plunder and praise infanticide.

We used to call it 'Tokenism'.

We used to call it subversive activity.

This woman is a disgusting leftist racist.

Plus, Everyone born here is a Native American and Indigenous person.

Out of all the evil perpetrated by Democrats and the left, identity politics HAS to be at the top of the list.

Also, Indians weren't these wonderful, peaceful people portrayed by the media and others. They were brutal, vicious, demon worshipers, who warred with themselves, and sacrificed enemies and children alike to their demons.

What makes her qualified to administer ANYTHING?

Here she is calling Antifa "Peaceful Protesters", and the GOP response to evil disgustingness:

“It’s not surprising Trump would side away from the folks who are peaceful protesters, working to safeguard their city from domestic terrorism. Not surprised at all that the President sides with the white nationalists. That’s been his mode of operation since before he was elected President,” Haaland said during the interview.

“Violent extremism must be called out truthfully no matter the source,” Pearce said. “I call on Sens. (Martin) Heinrich and (Tom) Udall, along with Reps. (Ben Ray) Luján and (Xochitl) Torres Small to join me in condemning Rep. Haaland’s inexcusable and baffling support for this violent group.”

They were pantheistic and worshiped many things, created as well as imaginary.

This must be one of the most hateful posts ever to be seen here. Shame on you, mister.

Got me. i guess I didn't vet her very well. Probably go on the warpath.

Do you live on a reservation, or in the US?

 

[Desdichado]

Please. I already plan to go to Mars. Do not suggest unrestricted immigration there. Hahaha.
