Even after the full story about the Catholic school boys and the Native American came out, the New York Times is still lying.
Soon, the Native American man, Nathan Phillips, 64, was encircled by an animated group of high school boys. He beat a ceremonial drum as a boy wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat stood inches away. The boy identified himself in a statement released on Sunday night as Nick Sandmann, a junior.

The man walked right up to that kid. No one was "encircled".
Yet the mainstream media and celebrities have lied about and tried to dox this kid and his family, which has led to violent threats against these kids, their families and family businesses, and the school. You couldn't try to incite violence any more if you were a foreign agent intent on destroying a country from within. The leftist liars in the media just keep quadrupling down on their lies, instead of lifting a single finger to help their own credibility.

So someone's either trolling or actually doesn't get out enough to know the acronym for the "mainstream media". Either one ain't a good look.

lol
"MSM" is really more about gaining ratings than it is about journalism. Honest journalism. I rarely watch the news anymore, because I don't want to be part of their supply chain.

Same here. Rarely watch the news. I attribute that to my age, thinking I'm not directly affected by it as much as when I was younger.
Just do what they do in Canada . Trudeau apologizes and hands out a billion dollars. So much easier and not as newsworthy, less sensational. Plus Trudeau gains a few more.votes. I think I see why he does it. this way.

I still would dig Canada. Montreal is too cool for words. But, Canada has its own issues. Maybe we need to just accept, that no country is perfect. And Trump is doing his best?

True, but some countries are more imperfect than others. My priority is freedom.
I can always visit cool places.

Where do you think he gets the billion dollars?
A $billion from taxpayers is nothing these days. Here's how it works. The native people have their own lawyers, they know every treaty ever signed and constantly on the lookout for more that benefit them. Eventually we find out they own this or have rights to that and since we're already parked there we give them $billions for user fees. The money goes to the chiefs of whichever First Nation tribe(s) that's involved. They are supposed to divvy it up but sometimes the cash ends up in an offshore account. There's little or no accountability on where it's spent....they tried auditing once but the chiefs for the most part didn't cooperate. So the tribes reiterate they're suffering and infrastructure either missing or in state of repair. Trudeau apologizes and we give them more money. There are about 30 First Nation tribes in Canada and they all have complete autonomy on how their land is worked so if you want to run a pipeline through their territory for instance, then buck up. It's a $billions enterprise with very little overhead other than some paid lobbyists, a few placards and travel costs to get to the next protest location.
It's beautiful to see them peacefully work the treaties to their advantage and capitalize. I give them credit. Don't need a gun, just a lawyer and a sympathetic electorate. I fear someday the gravy train will halt. I'm thinking either the kids get tired of living on reserves, the chiefs run off with all the cash, newer Canadians who arrived from countries and situations far worse eventually won't give a damn about the native population.
