Senator Lindsey Graham has devoted her life to serving the people of South Carolina and the American people.
Throughout his career, he has tirelessly defended democracy and freedom, most recently that of Ukraine and its people, in particular.
I extend my deepest condolences to Senator Graham's family and friends, and all those who served with him.

From nativegiving: Why is an uppercase letter so important? Uppercase is used in English to denote proper nouns, which include ethnicities and nationalities (ex: "German", not "german"). Lowercase "native" is an adjective typically used to describe plants, animals, or objects that are... 1 - 2

Yenno some people's opinion of me aren't even based on me.
It's based on someone else's version of me. A story they were told. A clip they watched. A comment section they believed. A version of me that existed in one moment, under pressure, in survival mode and maybe not my best self.
And then they carry that version around like it's my entire identity.
What's funny is that those people have never met the thriving version of me.
The healed me.
The peaceful me. The funny me.
The generous me.
The version of me that isn't just surviving anymore.
So if all you know is survival mode me... I'm sorry you haven't met the version that's pretty fuckin' dope.
And no, I'm not going to apologize for defending myself when people who don't know me insist on telling the world an expired exaggerated version who I am. Sorry She doesn't live here

Neskantaga First Nation remains under a 31 year long-term boil water advisory. “From Chretien to Carney, five Prime Ministers have failed to ensure real action at the First Nation local level is taken to address this basic quality of life issue.” -Dennis Ward.

MEDIA RELEASE
June 17,2026 | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BOIL WATER ADVISORY DAY 11,459: NESKANTAGA FIRST NATION RESPONDS TO CANADA'S NEW BILL C-37 FIRST NATIONS CLEAN WATER ACT
Neskantaga First Nation, ON - In the House of Commons yesterday, the Honourable Mandy Gull-Masty, Minister of Indigenous Services (MP Abitibi-Baie-James-Nunavik-Eeyou, Quebec) introduced Bill C-37 the proposed First Nations Clean Water Act, and the Neskantaga First Nation Chief and Council issue the following statement:
"The People of Neskantaga First Nation have lived the reality and impacts of a long-term boil water advisory for over 31 years. Canada is presenting this proposed legislation as recognizing our First Nations Section 35 rights to self-government and the novel recognition of First Nations jurisdiction over water. Canada has failed our people when it comes to providing access to clean water. From Chretien to Carney, five Prime Ministers have failed to ensure real action at the First Nation local level is taken to address this basic quality of life issue
Neskantaga First Nation reminds Canada that First Nations jurisdiction over water is as equally fundamental as First Nation jurisdiction over our lands and territories.
Firstly, the First Nations Clean Water Act Bill C-37 is fundamentally flawed as it is an unacceptable tool of delegated authority. If Canada truly recognized First Nations jurisdiction over water, and the UNDRIP principle of free, prior and informed consent - then First Nations would have an equal role at the Canada Water Agency that has been established at arms length from direct First Naton engagement and decision-making. Instead, Canada and the Minister of Indigenous Services will place First Nations at a legislated table only amongst ourselves in Bill C-37's proposed First Nations Water Commission.
Secondly, Bill C-37 holds space for First Nations who are modern treaty or self-government agreement holders. There is no recognition of the inherent challenges

ASSEMBLY OF TREATY CHIEFS DEMANDS PREMIER
AND UCP TREASON INVESTIGATION
Unanimous resolution calls for immediate action by RCMP and Auditor General June 17, 2026 (Treaty No. 7 Territory) - The Assembly of Treaty Chiefs (AOTC) of Treaty No. 6, Treaty No. 7, and Treaty No. 8 has unanimously passed a resolution calling for an investigation by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Auditor General into the actions of Premier Danielle Smith and members of the UCP to determine whether they constitute treason under Section 46 of the Criminal Code of Canada (Criminal Code, RSC 1985, c C-46, s 46). The vote took place in a duly convened meeting on Treaty No. 7 Territory in Calgary on June 16, 2026.
We call for this investigation on the basis of the intentional violation of the Treaties; of calling a referendum in the face of severe risks to Canada's sovereignty and the Treaty Relationship and of failing to take action on the violation of privacy rights of millions of people. Further, Premier Smith and the UCP government have done all this with significant risks of foreign interference and influence.
At the time of Treaty, the Northwest Mounted Police, now the RCMP, committed to ensuring the safety of First Nations and our Territories, and that the Crown guarantees the peace and goodwill mutually promised between First Nations and the Crown in exchange for sharing these Lands.
United, the Chiefs of Treaty No. 6, Treaty No. 7 and Treaty No. 8 Territories now call for the fulfilment of this commitment in the form of a full investigation.

If you know someone is abusive and you still defend them, cover for them, or stand beside them while the person they hurt is being discredited or silenced - then you are not neutral.
You are choosing a side. When you enable an abuser, you become complicit in the abuse. Sit with that. -unknown

The fact that oppressed people can't make a single angry statement about their oppressors without being asked to clarify they didn't mean literally everyone in that group just in case they hurt someone's feelings blows my f cking mind.
Sorry if I hurt your feelings by pointing out that you're part of a group that benefits from the dehumanisation of others.
I guess I was just too busy being actively dehumanised to care.
