‘There is NO GOING BACK’: Inside Europe’s ‘RUPTURE’ with the U.S.
The Wall Street Journal has a new two-part feature detailing what it describes as Europe’s ‘rupture’ with the United States following this week’s NATO Summit in Turkey. The Journal reports that President Trump’s tariff’s and threats to take Greenland has sparked a quote, “rebellion” amongst European leaders who are now drawing limits on so-called “flattery diplomacy.” The paper reports many leaders now view autonomy as the long-term goal,. Rather than a temporary measure, adding that even if leadership changes the era of relying on America so heavily had ended. The reporters behind the story join Morning Joe to discuss the ground-breaking revelations.

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

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

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.
