    Lawrence, face twisted of hate ,spewing constant false accusations about Trump ,not a single criminal allegations against Trump qualifies as a crime in a regular and honest justice system ,so all this will boil down to a corrupted government , justice and a media system ,brainwashing the people with lies ,which by winning the 2024 election means increased illegal immigration ,higher taxes & inflation ,out of control crimes and drug addiction vs. a Trump win " MAKE USA GREAT AGAIN" building the wall, restoring domestic oil production and a hugely damaged country and its system

    What’s sad is even if you show these clips to a Trumper, they won’t hear, see, or change their opinion. It’s the Jim Joness syndrome.

    INVADING THE KINGSHIP GOVERNMENT JURISDICTION, WITH INTENT TO USE DISEASE EXTINCT LAWFUL INDIGENOUS PEOPLE. KNOW NOT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE HOMINID SODONY? ELOHIM GODS RETALIATION

    Counting the Dead: Estimating the Loss of Life in

    the Indigenous Holocaust, 1492-Present

    David Michael Smith

    University of Houston-Downtown

    During the past century, researchers have learned a great deal about the nature and

    scope of what Russell Thornton has called the demographic collapse of the Indigenous

    population in the Western Hemisphere after 1492.1 As David Stannard has explained, the

    almost inconceivable number of deaths caused by the invasion and conquest of these lands

    by Europeans and their descendants constitute “the worst human holocaust the world had

    ever witnessed.”2 Scholars have long had reliable information on the size of the Indigenous

    population in this hemisphere and this country at its nadir around the turn of the twentieth

    century. And in recent decades, investigators have developed a range of estimates of the

    Native population in the Western Hemisphere before 1492. Researchers have also amassed

    considerable knowledge about the role of diseases, wars, genocidal violence, enslavement,

    forced relocations, the destruction of food sources, the devastation of ways of life,

    declining birth rates, and other factors in the Indigenous Holocaust.3 This paper draws on

    the work of Russell Thornton, David Stannard, and other scholars in attempting to count

    the dead—that is, in developing informed and reasonable, if very rough, estimates of the

    total loss of Indigenous lives caused by colonialism in the Western Hemisphere and in what

    is today the United States of America. Although this analysis is inevitably grim and

    saddening, there is much to be gained by understanding the most sustained loss of life in

    human history—both for people living today and for future generations.

    At the turn of the twentieth century, the total number of Native inhabitants living

    in the entire Western Hemisphere had declined to 4-4.5 million.4

    In 1800, only about

    600,000 Indigenous people remained in the coterminous United States.5 By 1900, the

    Indigenous population in this country reached its lowest point of about 237,000 people.6

    The size of the Indigenous population in the hemisphere and this country then began to

    grow again and has increased appreciably during the past century. Today about 70 million

    Indigenous people live in the Western Hemisphere.7 There are now approximately 7.25

    million American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians in the U.S.8

    In view of

    the historically unprecedented and unspeakably tragic depopulation that unfolded after

    1492, the survival of Indigenous people is truly extraordinary. However, even today the

    legacy of invasion, conquest, and colonialism continues to exact a terrible human toll.

    Serious scholarly investigations into the size of the Indigenous population in the

    Western Hemisphere before 1492 began early in the twentieth century. In 1924, Paul Rivet

    estimated that between 40 and 50 million people lived in the hemisphere before the

    8 Counting the Dead

    Indigenous Holocaust began. 9 That same year, Karl Sapper also estimated the Indigenous

    population in the hemisphere to be between 40 and 50 million.10 Both Rivet and Sapper

    later revised their estimates downward to about 15.5 million and 31 million respectively.11

    In 1939, Alfred Kroeber developed a much lower estimate of only 8.4 million for the entire

    hemisphere.12 In 1964, Woodrow Borah announced a much larger estimate of “upwards of

    100 million” Native inhabitants.13 Two years later, Henry Dobyns estimated the Indigenous

    population of the hemisphere to be between 90 million and 112.5 million.14 In 1976,

    William Denevan estimated the Indigenous population at between 43 and 72 million, the

    mid-point of which is more than 57 million.15 In 1987, Thornton provided an estimate of

    about 75 million.16 The following year, Dobyns revised his estimate significantly upward

    to 145 million.17 In 1992, Stannard estimated the original population of the hemisphere at

    about 100 million.18

    Researchers have also developed various estimates for the pre-1492 population of

    the lands that today make up the coterminous United States. In 1910, James Mooney

    estimated this population at about 846,000. He later revised his estimate to more than

    879,000.19 In 1939, Kroeber suggested that this population was only about 720,000 before

    the Europeans arrived.20 In 1976, Douglas Ubelaker estimated that the original population

    of the coterminous United States was more than 1.85 million.21 In 1981, Thornton and his

    co-author Joan Marsh-Thornton developed an estimate of 1.845 million, which was very

    close to Ubelaker’s.22 As Thornton later explained, this estimate was based on the

    assumption that the pattern of depopulation between 1492 in 1800 had been linear, i.e. “in

    a straight line.” But further research convinced him that the demographic collapse of the

    Indigenous population in the present-day coterminous U.S. was “a more severe downward

    curve.” Thornton revised his earlier finding and concluded that this population numbered

    more than 5 million in 1492.23 And he estimated that another 2 million Native people lived

    in what is today Canada, Alaska, and Greenland at that time.24 In 1992, Stannard estimated

    that between 8 and 12 million Indigenous people lived in North America north of present day Mexico.25 In 2014, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz suggested that about 15 million Indigenous

    people lived in what became the continental U.S.

    Scholarly differences regarding the size of the original Indigenous population in

    this hemisphere and this country persist today, and it cannot be said that a consensus on

    this subject has been reached. As Thornton has explained, “We do not know exactly how

    many American Indians were in the Western Hemisphere, or even parts of it, when

    Columbus came.”26 Nonetheless, Thornton has emphasized that, “It is possible, however,

    to arrive at a reasonable estimate of the American Indian population at that time.”27 How

    can this be done? In view of the widely divergent estimates developed by various experts

    in the field, how can other researchers and concerned individuals know which numbers are

    most reasonable and most likely to be accurate?

    Even the most well-informed and most reasonable estimate of a population

    separated from contemporary inquiry by more than half a millennium is inevitably a very

    general approximation at best. Thornton’s own painstaking and evolving demographic

    research during the past three and one-half decades arguably provides the best example of

    this kind of inquiry and research. Thornton has challenged Moody’s very low estimate of

    Counting the Dead 9

    the Indigenous population in what is today the continental United States because it assumed

    no early significant Indigenous-European contact or early catastrophic Indigenous

    population loss because of European and/or African diseases.

Rather than a temporary measure, adding that even if leadership changes the era of relying on America so heavily had ended.

Trump’s DOJ subpoenas NYT journalists over Air Force One story

Published

on

By



The Trump administration issued subpoenas on Friday to several journalists for The New York Times, after the paper reported on security concerns involving President Trump’s new Qatari-donated Air Force One. In some cases, the subpoenas were delivered by federal agents who showed up at reporters’ homes. The subpoenas seek to force the reporters to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday, and are an extraordinary escalation in President Trump’s efforts to threaten and intimidate independent news organizations. NYT Investigative reporter Michael Schmidt joins Morning Joe with more on this developing story.
