Firing an entire federal arts commission to clear the path for your own triumphal arch? It’s a textbook indicator of authoritarian executive overreach — the exact trend we warned about in our assessment. #authoritarianism #DemocraticDecline #SteadyStateAssessment

John Roberts didn’t defend the #Constitution today Didn’t reject #Authoritarianism Nope Just kicked the can down the road While a man sits in a prison camp for wearing his hat backwards Surprised? Don't be Cowardice in a robe bsky.app/profile/murp... #SCOTUS #TheyTookHim #NoJustice #Kilmar

A stylized digital illustration shows the silhouette of a Supreme Court justice wearing a backward baseball cap and gently kicking a tin can down a road. The background is stark and minimal, with heavy shadows. Bold white text at the top reads: “IS WHY HE WAS DEPORTED.” Below, in smaller white text: “I guess I’m at risk too...” The image critiques the Supreme Court's inaction in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Dear Southern Ute Tribal Members,

In light of ongoing ICE activity nationwide, the Southern Ute Indian Tribal Council is providing this update to reassure you that we are actively engaging federal and local authorities. We recognize the anxiety this causes—especially among our youth, elders, and families—and are monitoring the situation closely.

Our Justice & Regulatory Department remains in regular communication with ICE to address any potential operations on the Reservation. ICE has confirmed its focus is solely on undocumented individuals convicted of serious crimes or subject to existing deportation orders. Any actions within Reservation boundaries will proceed only after the required prior notification to Tribal authorities, in deference to our treaty rights and full respect for our sovereignty.

We strongly encourage every Tribal Member—on or off the Reservation—to carry your Tribal ID plus at least one Real ID–compliant document. Tribal Information Services (TIS) can assist with obtaining or updating IDs; call 970-563-2250 or 970-563-2248.

Tribal Council remains steadfast in protecting your rights and upholding our sovereignty. We evaluate all actions through the lenses of tribal jurisdiction, intergovernmental relationships, and long-term responsibilities to our people. While we value insights from other nations, our guidance reflects the unique circumstances of the Southern Ute Tribe—our land status, location, and complex jurisdictional issues.

We stand with you and prioritize your safety and well-being. For concerns about ICE activities on Reservation land, please contact:
• Justice & Reg. Director Leonard Redhorse III, 970-553-0995
• Chief Michael Barrow, Southern Ute Police Dept., 970-563-2811

Best,
Melvin J. Baker
Chairman, Southern Ute Indian Tribal Council

When a president facing multiple court challenges over troop deployments claims “I’m allowed to do that” and “nobody would get involved,” it’s him signaling a plan to govern without checks and balances, not a display of confidence. #ruleoflaw #authoritarianism #SteadyStateAssessment

Secret detentions. False filings. Defiance of court orders. This is the new Administration at work. I break down three cases that show just how far we’ve slid toward authoritarianism. The courts are pushing back—but will it be enough? #RuleOfLaw #DemocracyWatch #Authoritarianism

Same playbook, different day: pressure the DOJ, call past elections “rigged,” and seed doubt before 2026. #authoritarianism #DemocraticDecline #SteadyStateAssessment
