The word “government” comes from the Greek ‘gobernado‘, which means ‘‘control” and from the Latin ‘mente‘ which means ‘the mind’. It means ‘controllers of the mind’. In a free society one should be able to say anything against the government. Government is an unnatural legal fiction that deprives all of nature and natural persons of their fundamental rights and freedoms. We are born sovereign and then the bankers impose a corporate fiction on us and we receive all capital letter identification. In legalese all capital letters mean a corporation. The kaianerekowa great peace teaches us that we are part of the whole natural system, we are the humans, that the power of the creative mind allows us to accomplish anything our mind can conceive and believe it can achieve. Then we were attacked in 1492 by the Europeans who tried to enslave us. We were not docile because we were born free. Then they tried to murder us all thinking there would be no consequences. When one deceives life balances out the deception. These invaders installed a political system controlled by violence, intimidation and death. The official “final solution to the Indian problem” to exterminate us started on October 25, 1924 with the Indian Advancement Act. The policy was to create reservations as POW camps for the ‘Indians‘ with the army now the Department of Indian Affairs standing at the gate checking each as we came and went. A blood quantum system was created whereby only the Canadian government decides who is an Indian or not. The Admiralty Laws are the only laws of ‘Canada’. Only indigenous natural ways are the laws of turtle island.

AI, Artificial Intelligence, isn't intelligence at all -- it's stealing

AI, Artificial Intelligence, isn't intelligence at all -- it's stealing

Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter/X have taken all public posts, photos and comments and put it in their AI machines to be mixed and thrown back up in any way they choose. Most users were unaware of this. It is a violation of the public trust.

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Updated July 23, 2025

For the billionaires, and the plagiarizers, stealing seems the easiest way to go.

Whether its lithium you're after for your sinking electric car business, or you're a stay-at-home 'reporter' stealing other peoples hard work, or engulfed in the hype of the new AI search engines, stealing seems to be the easy way.

"Everyone is doing it," says one editor, as he grabs others hard work to rewrite it.

After exposing the Navajo Nation's selling its aboriginal land claims, John Redhouse was censored by Navajo Times

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, July 15, 2025

WINDOW ROCK, Arizona -- When John Redhouse, Dine', wrote about the Navajo Nation extinguishing Navajo aboriginal land claims for 86 cents an acre -- it ended his time as a columnist at Navajo Times. It was a bold move to expose it in 1981.

Dr. Jennifer Denetdale, Dine' historian, said she discovered Redhouse's column during her research for her PhD. Her comments came as Redhouse launched his new book on bordertown racism and the torture murder of Navajos in Farmington, New Mexico.

GENEVA -- The United Nations Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples began today.

Cherokee Chief Hoskin Statement: Dangerous Hate Speech Targets Native Professor on Twitter/X

By Chuck Hoskin, Jr, Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation
Tahlequah, Cherokee Nation, July 6, 2025

Ann Coulter’s post this evening on X that “we didn’t kill enough Indians,” is beyond abhorrent. It is dangerous hate speech designed to inflict damage on a marginalized community and designed arose support in the deepest darkest gutters of social media. Although it is tempting to decline to dignify her regressive attack on Native Americans, I cannot and will not. This is no time for timidity.
