Media outrage is brewing after President Trump on Monday referred to Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas” at an event honoring Native American “code talkers” who served in World War II.
“You were here long before any of us were here,” Trump said, standing beneath a portrait of former President Andrew Jackson. “Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas.” Turning to the veterans, Trump said “but do you know what? I like you.”
The president made the remark in the Oval Office standing beside three Navajos who helped the U.S. Marine Corps develop a secret code during the Second World War. The three “code talkers” reportedly did not react to Trump’s remark.
In the past Trump has repeatedly used the nickname to refer to Warren, poking fun at her claim of Native American heritage. The president also referred to White House chief of staff John Kelly as “chief.”
“He’s the general and the chief,” Trump said during the event. “I said, how good were these code talkers? He said, ‘sir, you have no idea. You have no idea how great they were’.”
The imagery here is terrible….Andrew Jackson?
Andrew Jackson treated Indians fairly.
Please consult any or all of Professor Robert V. Reminis bios of the former President.

Two if you are a moron – it was Jackson that sent my people on the Trail of Tears. You are entirely a fuckwit.
You weren’t on the Trail of Tears so drop it, chief.
Dumbest fucking argument I’ve seen in months on TBP. Congrats!
David – you are in luck, douchebag. I am going to remember you. It is a wonderful experience to be remembered by me. I have not seen you post much, but I will remember you when and if you do.
Llpoh is the most (self) overrated douche to ever grace the premises of TBP. Don’t be intimidated by him, David.
Your misuse of an authority is duly noted.
When I was in DC 2006 attending political events, the invited were lined up in a long hallway awaiting entrance. On the walls were images of former presidents and their first ladies. With Andrew there was an image on either side of his portrait. One of the females was the wife he married who had a previous marriage with dubious distinctions; and who died before entering the white house. The other was of a VERY young female. I asked the knowledgeable looking married couple next to me if the young woman was Jackson’s second wife. They said yes, they implied she was his second wife while he was in the White House. She must of barely been 20.
I can’t find it on goog. Just some innuendo about his ‘second wife’.
AJ accepted the surrender of the Spanish and the British here in Pensacola. We got streets named after him. There are locals named Jackson with 1/2 Poarch Creek Indian blood. Very striking females in that family. I think Andy was a prolific man.
I fish often, catch yellowfin tuna, with a man who says he is the last living male relative of his uncle Andy. There is a nice bronze plaque and a statue of him in town.
But of course, Mr. Mitty, of course.
He takes the time, his time…..The President’s time, to honor vets and makes it clear that fakes, phonies, and posers are a joke to be laughed at…..and that’s not clear to everyone? The time for stuffy bullshit presidents has passed – this is the very same behavior that got him elected. We want those bullshit artists to know we’re laughing at them.
“fakes, phonies, and posers are a joke to be laughed at”. Ironic that Trump, the king of fakes & posers is at the epicenter of this. I understand his loyalists have to support & defend this behavior. Otherwise, they would have to admit that they fell under the spell of a master salesman.
I don’t give a fuck.
Asshole.
When you can back it up, it’s neither fake nor posing. There’s a difference.
Trump is the fake, phony, and poser.
…as are those that support him.
Hey, nuttierthanthou …
Go Hillary!! Right? Or, is it … Go Bernie!!!
Holy shit. This thread is really bringing out the fucken NUTJOBS … Amerika’s finest, slithering forth from under the rotted stumps of their existence, spewing forth vomit that would gag a maggot.
You know, I don’t think you could make this shit up on a day to day basis anymore if you had to. The sex scandals, the criminal behaviour, the lies being exposed to the public and Trump opening up his mouth at the ‘seemingly’ worst moments and pissing off everyone in the process. It just doesn’t get any better than this.
If you’re not amused you’re not paying attention…. more popcorn please.
The only thing that could be better than saying “Pocohantas” in front of the Native Americans would be if he tweeted that we need the Wall funded ASAP and that the Congressional Black Caucus shouldn’t be niggardly.
I thought that was pretty good Iska…gave you an upvote. 5-6 years ago a college prof used ”niggardly” in a lesson, expecting the students would know its meaning, and if not, would take the time to look it up and learn it. Nuh-uh. One took offense. You can guess. Can’t label him a snowflake; doesn’t really fit., so maybe dung beetle would.
He aired his grievances, and when the true meaning of the word was explained to him, he said it didn’t matter. It sounded too close to that other word that some want banished from the history books and English language. . .The college prof was fired for that offense. Imagine that.
Reminds me of a joke told by a kneegrow comedian on stage. Said: “Mike Tyson filed a suit in L.A. last year for malicious defamation of character. Now, I don’t know what you think, but I’d bet the only time Mike Tyson used the word ‘malicious’ was when he was wolfin’ down some really good cookies.”
Trump: standing on a pile of dead indians to make a political statement.
I guess that’s marginally better than standing on a pile of dead children to make a political statement.
Lighten up, Francis.
Warren Oates, in Stripes, right?
Yup. I learned about it here on TBP.
I doubt many Native Americans are big fans of Elizabeth Warren claiming to be Native American. We Indians are not especially fond of wannabee Indians, of which there are millions. Everywhere you turn there are folks claiming to be Native American, and it is bullshit.
Here is the deal. Are your ancestors on the Dawes rolls? Yes? You are Native American. No? Shut the fuck up. Are you registered member of a tribe? Yes? You are Indian. No? Shut the fuck up. Do you have a CIB? Yes? Native American. No? Shut the fuck up.
Elizabeth Warren, dumb bitch that she is, is or has none of those things. She claims her family has “stories”. Well, fuck, that is proof, right. And I am next in line to the Britsih Throne based on stories, too.
So, calling that dumb bitch Pocohantas sarcastically is not going to ruffle many Indian feathers. Fuck her and her stories.
The height of irony, Life Liberty expatriates to AU. I hope you’re enjoying the freedom the US provides through out the world. Before the US revolution, there was only colonialism.
MAGA, but without LL. Gotta love it. Don’t know if it says more about LL or his heritage. One question, though, any regrets? Nope?
Congrats, Llpoh!!! Asshole Without Brains (AWB) is all butt-hurt and angry with you. There is no better confirmation that you did the right thing.
“I hope you’re enjoying the freedom the US provides through out the world.”
Ahhhh …. the jealousy just ooozes right through the computer screen, so palpable you can almost touch it. What a fucken LOSER!!
And the HYPOCRISY, yet once again, also. As if somewhere down the line his chimpanzee ancestry didn’t come to this country from SOMEWHERE ELSE!! hahaha! But, they are saints, and you are the Devil?? Clearly, you can see why I call him an asshole and without brains.
The USA!USA!USA! bringing freeeedom throughout the world?? BWAAHAHAHA!
You mean like this? In the CURRENT election cycle in Hungary .,.. where the U.S. State Dept. Is OPENLY admitting to spending $700,000 interfering in Hungarian elections to get a new President AMERICA wants? Lookout, Hungary! You’re about to become really really free …. American style! And you’re gonna loooove it! You mean like that, Asshole Without Brains??
http://russia-insider.com/en/us-doing-hungary-what-it-says-russia-did-america-and-media-completely-silent/ri21726
I see the irony of LL expatriating is lost on you. You win, you’re even more clueless than anyone possibly could have imagined. The freedom Americans enjoy is unmatched and unparalleled through out the world, in spite of all of the failed efforts of the USG.
Enjoy your boarding house. Still think everything is going to work out ok in the NE? You would be in the minority, but par for the course.
I used to think Admin should ban idiots from commenting, but then I realize you make the rest of us seem that much smarter.
It’s not a boarding house. It’s a mansion. I rent. Been a homeowner for the previous 30 years. Renting is better. Renting is freedom. Trust me on this.
I’ll be gone from the NE when mom and pop die. Guaranteed. I might even move next door to you.
American freedom is absolutely NOT “unmatched and unparalleled through out the world”. At best, that’s just American bias and jingoism …. Rah!Rah! ‘MURICA!! At worst, it is willful ignorance of freedoms in other countries.
We may have had a thread or two about “freedoms” in America, or lack thereof. If not, I might do an article about it.
Lastly, why is it ironic?? People worldwide leave one country, and go to another. They are not traitors, or any other bad thing you might call them, for making that choice. YOUR ancestors did the same somewhere along the line. We’re they bad people? Of course not.
I’m working on a POSITIVE aspect of Christian teachings for this Sunday’s sermon post. I hope you stop by to critique it.
To all,
Please notice that when I asked AWB, in a very nice manner, why it is “ironic” … that he remains silent.
Please notice that when I asked AWB, in a very nice manner, why it is that HIS immigrant family are not called the same names he calls Llpoh …… that he remains silent.
Please notice that when I offer the slightest of olive branches to visit my Sunday sermon this week …. that he remains silent.
Rather than give a substantive remark, please note that he resorts to mocking my status as a renter (:boarding house), and imagine the smugness on his face.
I believe you all can clearly see what he’s all about. Trolling. Name calling … not just me, but several people here. All while parading his holy love for Jesus before all. Virtually zero interest in substance, ever.
He is a bad man. Very bad. You ought to vote him down — or, not vote at all, — every opportunity you get. If you vote up, you are in danger of hell-fire. Jesus revealed this to me in a vision (Jesus don’t like his schtick either.)
Thank You
And have a blessed day.
I resent that he uses an acronym (I was informed early on that only big dogs could use acronyms) that is too close to AWD’s retired acronym. He has never corrected folks that mistake him for AWD.
EC
But he makes the rest of us look so much smarter.
My day job keeps me from lurking as many times a days as you do.
You haven’t offered any olive branches, only your disbelief. That’s your privilege. I haven’t called anybody any names, unless someone else does it first, and even then in a somewhat restrained manner, depending on my mood.
Notice a troll, which Stukfuk is, by his own admission, accusing others of what they themselves do.
Anon, I’m not AWD, and I’ve been on this board longer than almost everyone here, not that it matters, because Quinn and his fuck buddy Stukfuk, whose only commonality is they hate law enforcement, decided to engage in site censorship. My handle was Nonanonymous, and they couldn’t handle the truth. Fuck them.
Maggie, go fuck yourself if you can get up off of Stukfuk long enough to do it.
Genetic tests can determine your ethnic ancestry beyond doubt.
Anyone claiming to be a Native American, and who is called into question about it, and who does not get one to prove it is probably not one.
Has Warren, aka Pocohantas, ever volunteered to provide this proof of her ancestry?
FWIW, she doesn’t look like an American Indian to me.
“Has Warren, aka Pocohantas..”
Pocahontas. Not to be confused with Pochahontas who is said to strike fear in the hearts of men.
EC (I hope Infidel doesn’t see this)
I’m no trump fan but I love this. Yes, Indians were definitely fucked over by the gov’t-we’ll all get our turn in that barrel. But his ranking on this fool is thoroughly enjoyable, especially in the presents of genuine Indian war heros who didn’t seem to mind at all-to their credit. Fuck the ‘racial slur’ bullshit the real outrage is that this cunt hitchhiked a ride on programs meant for worthy Indian children when it’s plainly obvious she’s a fucking mayonnaise face if ever there lived one.
Democrat Party =. Do as we say not as we Do.
Let’s count the ways shall we? Public education for you but private education for Chelsea and Obamas kids. Sexual harassment for me, don’t you dare. Diversity in your neighbood or “Da Hood’ for you. Not for Maxiem Waters.
How about this for a bumper sticker. Democrats live like Repulicans and yet they want you to vote Democrat.
I guess that I can understand why Native Americans would consider that to be a racial slur, since Pocahantas saved Captain John Smith’s life according to legend, and became a Tory, although possibly not of her own free will since she was captured, and then presented as someone that the English had “civilized,” since many of the Native Americans were intentionally wiped out by small pox infected blankets.
I would be more offended by Elizabeth Warren claiming to be Native American, when she is not, for the purposes of seeking preferential treatment, if I were Native American.
Is Professor Elizabeth Warren on Commission With Federal Reserve?! – Andrea Iravani
Do you have any evidence that “many of the Native Americans were intentionally wiped out by small pox (sic) blankets”?
Iska – no irrefutable evidence that happened. But…. given the shit that was done to Indians, it is not very far-fetched, is it.
I have no doubt that the intent would have been there. Not being an epidemiologist or expert in viruses, I’m not sure the “small pox” virus remains contagious after 24 or more hours outside a living host -in an inert object, no less. Probably best to tout only provable atrocities. Now if the white devils had tried a large pox or two, who knows how their evil deed would have turned out.

In this instance, as recorded in his journal by sundries trader and militia Captain William Trent, on June 24, 1763, dignitaries from the Delaware tribe met with Fort Pitt officials, warned them of “great numbers of Indians” coming to attack the fort, and pleaded with them to leave the fort while there was still time. But the commander of the fort refused to abandon the fort. Instead, the British gave as gifts two blankets, one silk handkerchief and one linen from the smallpox hospital,[15] to two Delaware delegates after the parley, a principal warrior named Turtleheart, and Maumaultee, a Chief. The tainted gifts were, according to their inventory accounts, given to the Indian dignitaries “to Convey the Smallpox to the Indians”.[16][17]
INVOICE for 1763 June
Levy, Trent and Company: Account against the Crown, Aug. 13, 1763[15]
“To Sundries got to Replace in kind those which were taken from people in the Hospital to Convey the Smallpox to the Indians Vizt:
2 Blankets @ 20/ £299 099 0
1 Silk Handkerchef 10/
& 1 linnen do: 3/6 099 1399 6
Captain Ecuyer later certified that the items “were had for the uses above mentioned”, in the inventory reimbursement request, and General Thomas Gage would later approve that invoice for payment, endorsing it with a comment and his signature.[15]
How were those small pox infested blankets handled, transported and stored without infecting the Whites that supposedly used them against the Indians?
Keep in mind the state of the art of medical knowledge among the general populace at the time when pondering this.
Whites may have already developed immunity.
Indians, not so much.
Smallpox outbreaks at the time would indicate otherwise and there was no widespread vaccination being practiced, there probably would have been many unvaccinated Whites handling those blankets that would have developed smallpox as a result.
I don’t see anyone mentioning this, maybe someone did but I don’t know of any reports about it.
Just something to think about, nothing definitive one way or the other.
“Unvaccinated” whites? In Colonial America? Early Settled Colonial America?
“Smallpox vaccine, the first successful vaccine to be developed, was introduced by Edward Jenner in 1796. He followed up his observation that milkmaids who had previously caught cowpox did not later catch smallpox by showing that inoculated cowpox protected against inoculated smallpox.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallpox_vaccine
So this predates the Siege of Fort Pitt. but immunity is gained from exposure to cows. Doubt if the natives had cows. I have read reports on how the technique was used extensively by the Spanish in South America. Any idea why a certain wild weed is called Spanish Needle?
Hawaii experienced huge die offs after 1853 from small pox brought by the Haole ship

Shoulda said post-dates, sorry. But the immunity from cow pox and cattle could provide some resistance for the whitey. The point is small pox was well known to the settlers and not the natives.
Poor Pocahontas died in 1617 and was buried in LONDON.
–
400 years ago just this last March, sadly enough.
–
Much like that poor soul Joseph Merrick, Pocahontas was a well-liked celebrity — once the LONDON in-crowd became enamored of her. Indeed, she was a smart and special young woman.
–
Anglicized in the end – in significant way – I might argue.
–
And dead in the end and buried in London in March 1617, sadly, still a very young woman, who had little or no resistance to English disease.
–
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocahontas
–
Brief excerpt from the above Wikipedia link :
–
“In 1616, the Rolfes traveled to London. Pocahontas was presented to English society as an example of the “civilized savage” in hopes of stimulating investment in the Jamestown settlement. She became something of a celebrity, was elegantly fêted, and attended a masque at Whitehall Palace. In 1617, the Rolfes set sail for Virginia, but Pocahontas died at Gravesend, at 19, of unknown causes. She was buried in St George’s Church, Gravesend in England, but the exact location of her grave is unknown, as the church has been rebuilt.”

A wonderful young woman, whose memory I respect greatly.

How the Offensive Charmlessness of the Media and DNC is Alienating Voters – Andrea Iravani
I will say it again: Llpoh is the most overrated douche to ever grace the premises of TBP. Don’t be intimidated by him and his rhetorical bluster.
Vodka – given you are a person of low or no integrity, I suspect will be happy to be on opposite sides of any position you take. As I said on another thread, you have shown your true colors, and are not worthy of respect. And that is the worst thing I ever think of anyone.
“…..low or no integrity…”.
Surely an Ivy Leaguer musta got learnt about the use of over-the-top satire in prose to make a point. That’s all I was doing. Get over it, Chief.
What does that even mean …. “overrated”??
WHO is doing the rating? You? Then, why should we believe … you? Whay credentials do you bring to the table? What have you done for TBP?
WHAT is being rated? His opinions/commentary? All of them? Some of them? Isnt he allowed to have opinions — which you obviously dislike — without you calling on the entire TBP community to shun him? Why involve US in YOUR vendetta? Aren’t we intelligent enough to make our own decisions, without direction from you?
Perhaps you don’t like him as a PERSON? You seem to be pissed off about his being an Injun — (he’s OK with ME using that term … and I let him call me a Kraut ?) — and that he brings up his roots, from time to time. Is that wrong, and why?
Perhaps you are JEALOUS? Jealous that he is well regarded here by many, including Admin? Jealous (or, angry) that he had the means to relocate to Australia, and live a very nice lifestyle? If so, what is that to you?
Really … can you give EXAMPLES of his overrated-ness? And do so without starting a shitfest with me … which has occurred on previous occasions? Seriously, I want to know. If I gotta hate the dude, cuz you said so, I need reasons to do so.
Listen … the man has been here from the very beginning. He likely better off than most of us. And I’d bet the two buffalo nickles that I have in the bank that he contributes significant $$$ to keep this joint open and running. Having been here from the beginning also, I know it’s the kind of man he is. Doesn’t his generosity count for something?? Or, is that overrated also?
I think you’re being petty and vindictive, and I seriously don’t get it. It would be nice if you just stopped, and moved on to more substantial substance … which I know you are capable of.
Thanks Stuck. I owe Admin his yearly tribute. I am saving up unusual currencies that will take him days to convert. He loves that.
You’re welcome, Kimosabe. I know you’re capable without an assist from me … but, when we’re in trench warfare, I got your back…. just as you do mine.
Good post, you have made your point well. On my behalf too, I will add.
SnowieGeorgie
When did a “douche” become an insult? Why is a cleansing with water or perfumed water a bad thing?
LL is scary at time, I grant you that, but overrated? Douche? Nah.
You gotta wonder how they arrived at the decision to do all this beneath a pic of Andrew Jackson. Did no-one think about it? Or was it a deliberate insult, a little extra even before Trump goes off on his usual ass-hattery?
The portrait of Jackson is hung in his office. The ceremony for the code talkers took place there. Hence the simulacrum/recipients in the same space/time continuum.
Trump has admitted repeatedly his admiration for Jackson based on his reputation as someone who stood up to the system and that’s why he chose to place his portrait in the Oval Office. He made the comment about Elizabeth Warren because she set herself up by making a false claim concerning her ethnic heritage in order to bolster her street cred with the identity politics crowd, something she has yet to prove despite the multiple offers to have her DNA checked gratis. Trump doesn’t appear to cater to identitarian politics but rather accomplishments so this was a perfect opportunity for the riposte.
The guys in the Oval Office were Navajo. Jackson relocated Cherokee. The two are not the same thing except in the most general way, sort of like Greeks and Ukranians. You are not likely to upset someone from Kiev by standing in front of a portrait of Attaturk, especially if you are giving them some kind of award or honor completely unrelated to the Greco-Turkish War.
It’s hard to imagine what this world would be like if people actually though about things before they started spouting off about them, but that’s just the Utopian in me.
HSF – he relocated Choctaw. Cherokee came after. And hence my animosity toward his memory.
I stand corrected on the Choctaw relocation and have no reason to doubt your animosity as genuine, had it been my own people I’d probably feel the same way. I was simply commenting on the twisted logic that people were using to make it look as if Trump had brought those men into the Oval Office to make sport of their heritage. I don’t believe that to be the case and unless people deliberately overlook the points above they are not reporting in good faith. Which is generally the case these days.
HSF – I thought the point you made was excellent. I was just amending the historical record. For some reason the Cherokee are oft thought to be the original Trail of Tears tribe. The suffered indeed on their own, but a few years later.

Ann Coulter
That was truly funny. Thanks Admin.

See, that is why I cannot stand her writing. She talks of two situations that have nothing in common except there’s a president involved. That’s the problem with tiresome ideologues. In the one case, a president is trying to bring two enemies to the peace table. In the second instance, the president himself is at odds with another person. This is a sloppy attempt at humor, which is why you can read it for free rather than pay to hear it in a club. Lame, lame, lame.

Yea, but she don’t feel it.

LGR, what is that, what’s wrong with pilsner or stout, you bock beer biased; have you got some sort of ax to grind? Posers like you and Let’s Play need to back up a little, earn some respect, pay your damn dues.
EC
Easy, there Mr. Coyote. Is that enough respect for you? I had an exchange recently with Miss M, and I don’t believe there was any dis contained there, or here. She never indicated explicit rules against nicknames. I don’t have the same frequency of exchanges as you big dog regs,…I get that, & ain’t tryin to horn in on those. Your smackdown of a noob I’m sure will get a blessing from Stuck. Yet, I have sent Admin a decent enough contribution, plus a special inclusion to him that links to your interpretation of my acronym. Research 2 Hearted when you get a chance. Besides, a few previous posts of mine have logged some thumbs up. I ain’t all that bad. Maybe cuz I closed a recent post with my shitty Spanish? Cut me a lil’ slack. Thems lessons from 4 years of it in H.S., some 40 years ago…I’m a Lil’ rusty, hombre. At what point, shall my contrib’s gain status as acceptable? I read Stuck’s 10 rules for Newbs, and have tried to comply. That said, I’ll take the advice you give. More reading and learning, & perhaps less comments. But lurkers-only…they contribute zero.
Indeed, your compliance with TheTen Rules is exemplary.
However, EC was just having some fun with you. He was a wicked sense of humor … and sometimes you have to read between the lines. Trust me, he’s a good hombre.
Stuck, I wish you’d tell that to Let’s Play, the infidel ripped me a new one – called me a moron – on the Benevolence article.
Aw, well hell if your complying with the rules, that’s all we ask. Keep posting, Lager. In truth, it’s that infidel I mean to abuse, you just happened to be available. Since your one of Stuck’s students, welcome aboard!
EC
PS Don’t ever call Mags – Martha. Only Stuck can get away with it.
We’re good, EC. I learn from you two a ton. I’d be more concerned with reactions of indifference, or being ignored than an occasional ball busting from the veterans on TBP I pay attention to. I was warned: Bring your A-game and a thick skin, if you choose to opine. Return the volleys, cuz pushovers get exposed and slink away from getting their ass chapped. Hence, my reply earlier. I’ve seen the wrath rained down upon maroons who fell victim to the panel of judges here. Carry on, big dogs. I’ll keep trying to keep up, & yap every once in a while.
My little Pyrenese puppy tries so hard to please us, but she will never replace the JDAWG. We are growing fond of her anyway.
Don’t try too hard.
No ass kissing there, merely acknowledgement of those who’ve been here far longer than me. Your point well taken.
You have a good point. I do NOT like to be called by my given name in this place. I actually am considering having a name conversion and becoming Maggie officially, making it an offense for anyone to call me anything other than Maggie or Mags.
An offense punishable by the Holy Hand Grenade. I have new bunnies, by the way. Seven of the cute little critters.
Am hoping for Christmas bunnies for children. Not Christmas dinner.

I think Mags should go by BunnySlayer.
I think you mean Bunny PLAYER, don’t you? I’m gearing up for all my friends with grandchildren they adore and daughters-in-law they hates to get one of these adorable little bundles of fur for Christmas delight to all.
And those that are here in January will get pressure canned. It’s the circle of life here in Little Italy, Ozarkia.
Defending my honor? I’m touched. I think LGR and I visited a bit and I am not the least offended. Mags is not like Maggoo or Maggita or that hodgepodge attempt YouKnowWhosie dropped on me… Maglita.
Maggoo for when your being short-sighted, overlooking the obvious.
Maggita is the diminutive of the diminutive for Margaret.
I went to Choctawhatchee high school, near Choctawhatchee Bay. We were the Big Green Indians. In high school a good friend’s father was the highest ranking civilian on the ginormous AFB and AT&T scion. He mapped all the indian sites. Mr. Lazarus’ name is on all the maps at UWF archeology department. My friend had his own personal chauffeur, an elvis look alike with a hot rod 58 Chevy and a sexy girlfriend. We had tons of fun tooling around town before we were 16.
Around 1964 Martin L. and I went on an expedition to search for indian sites along Choctawhatchee Bay with a real live indian. We boated and camped looking for oyster shell deposits along the shoreline. I found a ceremonial stone axe head that now is displayed in the Indian Temple Mound Museum in Ft. Walton Beach.
I met a man who claimed to be the last living descendant of Jean Lafitte. His family was the first in the area to have bull dozers. They looted many mound sites and claimed to have found Lafitte’s buried treasure. He gave me a silver articulated turtle ring reputed to belong the famous pirate who would allow the moving head and legs of the ring decide the fate of subjects.
Go unconquered Seminoles! I belong the the Bear Clan and hold a high position.

On to Trump, for whom I voted and still strongly support. Your propensity to open mouth and insert foot appears to be boundless. The Pocahantas dig couldn’t wait for another venue? In front of a portrait of Jackson? To the credit of the Navajo Nation tribal chief, who was quite aware of the situation, he ignored the controversy and thanked Trump for recognizing the invaluable service of the Navajo code talkers.
