Warren should apologize to Native Americans |
By Simon Moya-Smith 2016-06-30
Warren should probably just apologize to all Americans, not just to Native Americans, for a tweet she sent to Trump in March.
"(Donald Trump) stands ready to tear apart an America that was built on values like decency, community, and concern for our neighbors," she wrote.
As has been noted many times before, this country was actually built on the backs of slaves and on the genocide of Native Americans. If Warren is Native American she should know this better than anyone. Never forget the Trail of Tears. |

Tomgram: John Feffer, Donald Trump and America B |
By John Feffer 2016-06-29
Falling behind economically and feeling betrayed by politicians on both sides of the aisle, America B might have moved to the left if the United States had a strong socialist tradition. In the 2016 primary campaign, many of the economically anxious did, in fact, support Bernie Sanders, particularly the younger offspring of America A fearful of being deported to America B. Unlike Europe B, however, America B has always been more about rugged individualism than class solidarity. Its denizens would rather buy a lottery ticket ... Donald Trump, politically speaking, is their Powerball ticket. |
