Been out of the SCOTUS opinion analysis for a min (baby). But this Gorsuch Dissent (joined by Thomas 😮) from cert. denial in Veneno v. US, which challenged the Major Crimes Act (a fed. law that allows feds. to prosecute crimes on Indian Reservations), is worth discussing/explaining for a sec. 🧵 1/8

🚨 Super exciting news…the new edition of the Bluebook has a brand new rule…

Rule 22 on how to cite materials from Tribal Nations!!!

A long overdue and welcome development. Tribal Law scholars, we have a lot to be proud of today.

Tribal Law and Tribal Nations are a little less invisible today.🫶🏽✊🏽

Trump is laying off the DOCTORS at the Indian Health Service?! A chronically underfunded agency?! Irresponsible, dangerous, & a complete disregard for the lives of Native people and the government’s treaty and trust responsibilities.

“Shame on them” is inadequate.
