This is just one of the many reasons why the above statement in this thread is necessary at this time:

And here is another:
"After New York and New Jersey, the place with the highest coronavirus infection rate in the U.S. is the Navajo Nation."

And another:
"While Indian Country was responding to the growing number of coronavirus cases in its communities late Friday, the Trump administration was busy revoking the reservation status of the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe in Massachusetts."

And one more, just to demonstrate how both sides fail to relate correctly:
"One of the most important roles the federal government plays in rebuilding the nation-to-nation relationship is taking land into trust on behalf of tribes."
