Democratic Party strategist James Carville unleashed fury over the DNC’s recent summer meeting, which opened with a “land acknowledgement” and pushed progressive social policies that Carville has long called on the party to abandon.
“Let’s talk about the land for a second,” said Lindy Sowmick, treasurer of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) and self-styled “indigenous queer woman,” at the start of the party’s annual summer meeting.
“The DNC acknowledges and honors the Dakota Oyate – the Dakota people – who are the original stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis,” Sowmick continued.
“The Dakota cared for the lands, lakes and the Wakpa Tanka – the ‘Great River,’ the Mississippi River – for thousands of years before colonization. This land was not claimed, or traded – it’s a part of a history of broken treaties and promises. And, in many ways, we still live in a system built to suppress Indigenous peoples’ cultural and spiritual history.”
Sowmick encouraged attendees to value land acknowledgements as “more than just checking a box.”
Carville was enraged by this display.
“Why are you bringing this up in an election, okay? What we did with all kinds of things, with slavery, with experimenting with drugs, what we did during what happened in the Confederacy during the Civil War, Andersonville,” Carville said.
“This is an election and the DNC is not the place to discuss this,” the former Clinton strategist ranted.
“Understand this; the DNC does not exist to right wrongs. It doesn’t exist to acknowledge the more unpleasant parts of history.”
“It doesn’t exist to make people feel good. It exists, get this through your head, to win elections.”
Carville then asked how acknowledging land previously owned by Native American tribes in the Dakotas helps Democrats win elections.
“Please stop this in the name of a just, merciful God. Don’t you see what’s happening? Don’t you see where this has brought us to? For God’s sakes, lady, what is Ken Martin doing, doing that? You have one job, Ken. It’s to win.”

Carville has been sounding the alarm over Democratic Party messaging for a while now.
In 2024, he was particularly concerned with the party’s pitch to working-class male voters, a demographic that has provided critical support to Democrats in the past but has been increasingly moving towards the right.
He blamed the shift on “too many preachy females” having power in the Democratic Party, pointing to the rise of trends like cancel culture, tone policing, and endless HR-style lectures.
“A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females … It’s too much ‘don’t drink beer, don’t watch football, don’t eat hamburgers, this is not good for you,’” he said during a Washington Post panel last year.

Shut up, Skeletor, you raciss tranny hater!
Great post!
The Indians came from elsewhere also. Asia I believe.
SerpentHead sees it coming.
The collapse of the Democrat Party, The Clintons and his gravy train.
Don't worry James. In 10 years, after public schools have turned most kids tranny adults, the Democrats will have that, woke boomer white women, and Somalis.
The numbers will be insurmountable! Dems won't need anything else!
I don’t think the Lakotas ruled the area for all 12,000 years. They had to have taken it from someone who took it from someone...... etc.
I actually agree with James, but I also know THEY won’t listen to him.........................
As has been said many time on FR, The white Europeans didn’t do anything to the native Americans that they didn’t do to each other before Columbus.............
In 10 years, most of the Boomers will be dead..................
How can they stop it. they are crazy, but they don’t realize it. To stop it they would have to be aware that it is lunacy.
Ya. The Beavers had that river first. Them and the fish and in Minnesota, the mosquitoes. All hail the mosquitoes.
This insufferable reptile has been appearing everywhere on news shows, interviews etc. over the last several months, virtually on a daily basis. What gives?
Thankfully his irrelevance within the leftist dominated Democrat Party falls upon def ears & are ignored. I hope it continues, because they need to be destroyed, just as they are trying to destroy us. Because we are incompatible for a strong viable nation. As they destroy Christianity, the nation only sinks deeper into irrelevance & weakness.
They can’t stop because they see themselves as being ‘normal’....................
If you want sanity, abandon that sinking ship--and fast!
He hates the party he supports. What a loser.
He’s trying to rescue the (D) party from the seeds of their own self-destruction................But he will not succeed. They will ignore him.....................
Just imagine if a Republican was ranting about preachy females having too much power in the GOP. The media would be calling for heads on pikes.
