Sounds like they don’t like Federal agents on their lands any more than my family does.
No one likes the Border Patrol, me included, but this is ridiculous.
The Border Patrol violates the 4th amendment on it’s face. Those internal checkpoints are absolutely illegal and immoral.
They are actively supporting the drug cartels and human smugglers.
Not exactly law abiding citizens.
Not. Even. Close.
National security should be able to preempt Tribal Sovereignty esp if Tribal Sovereignty is used to cover up illegal, federal crimes being committee with the tribe’s knowledge on their territory, and they are incapable of doing anything about it.
Also, since it involves the transportation of drugs and weapons from another foreign country across our country’s borders, it is wholly a federal jurisdiction issue.
No cooperation with the feds equals no federal money, health care, schools, roads, sanitation, no nothing, unless Obama/Lynch like what is going on and intend to keep it that way.
