Does the federal government have authority over tribal lands?
Today, there are two major types of Native American land: Trust land , in which the federal government holds legal title, but the beneficial interest remains with the individual or tribe. Trust lands held on behalf of individuals are known as allotments.
Does federal law override tribal law?
Tribes possess all powers of self-government except: (1) those relinquished under treaty with the United States; (2) those that Congress has expressly extinguished; and (3) those that the federal courts have ruled are subject to existing federal law or are inconsistent with overriding national policies.
There’s a reason Joe picked 2014. He knows EXACTLY the who, what, and where of Hunter’s major crimes.
This situation, being Indian though, might be a sticky wicket for free-as-a-bird Hunter. I dunno. Maybe Bondi has staff to research the ins and outs of it.
