  What is terrifying is that it has become clear that SCOTUS is now functioning as a mere appendage of the Republican Party. It has no real connection with the U.S. Constitution at all; the Heller decision and the recent decision about Title 42 on immigration make this clear. 
  When you're an "originalist" (which is more or less like holding a séance trying to connect with your framer du jour) you can pretty much make it up as you go along. That's the genius of it.
context: A copy of the Montana resolution can be found here.
  This harkens back to the disastrous Termination policies of the 1940's-1960's where Congress abolished & privatized reservation trust land and dissolved American Indian tribal governments.  My tribe was terminated in 1954-1974.  Valuable prime real estate was then sold off against our will by a non-Native run corporation.  This news is deeply disturbing to me. >
  
  It’s especially disturbing since the US Constitution explicitly mentions Indian lands as being sovereign, so this resolution’s statement that sovereign tribal lands are anti-Constitution is totally nonsensical from a legal standpoint. Not even mentioning the racism inherent in the statements in the resolution.
