Wassup to all my Andromedans in exile and fly fugitive idealists! It's the Bay of Pigs episode y'all, Part 4 of the BNP Original Series, Revisiting Fidel and the Cuban Revolution. In this installment series we dive in to the CIA and State Department's oddly imagined and chaotically executed Bay of Pigs invasion in April of 1961. The mission was to invade Cuba, assassinate Castro, and spark a national revolt against his government. The plan failed abysmally, and in fact it achieved the opposite effect, serving as a major morale boost for Cuba, Castro, and the nascent Marxist-Leninist state. In this episode we unpack the nitty gritty details of why the BoP (new favorite acronym) failed so spectacularly, and examine the contextual bureaucratic ambiance that gave rise to the debacle. I begin the show by playing a clip from Rebecca Nagle's latest This Land episode, where she highlights movingly the intense emotional catharsis felt by the five tribes who were finally vindicated by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch's majority opinion in their favor. A deep and heartfelt Congratulations again to the Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole, Chickasaw and Creek Nations on their landmark victory. Thank you for listening and supporting the show!

On May 11, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court heard argument in McGirt v. Oklahoma, which involves a dispute over whether the prosecution of an enrolled member of the Creek Tribe for crimes committed within the historical Creek boundaries is subject to exclusive federal jurisdiction.Petitioner Jimcy McGirt was found guilty of one count of first degree rape by instrumentation, one count of lewd molestation, and one count of forcible sodomy. McGirt was sentenced to 500 years in prison without parole. On appeal, the Oklahoma Court declined to review McGirt’s petition. He then filed an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court, arguing that Oklahoma courts lacked jurisdiction because the crimes occurred in Indian Country where McGirt was a member of the Creek Nations of Oklahoma.To discuss the case, we have Troy Eid, Shareholder, Greenberg Traurig LLP.As always, the Federalist Society takes no particular legal or public policy positions.

On November 27, 2018, the Supreme Court heard argument in Carpenter v. Murphy, a case considering the 1866 territorial boundaries of the Creek Nations and Indian country jurisdiction. In 1999, Patrick Murphy, a member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation confessed to the killing of George Jacobs. The State of Oklahoma charged him with murder and he was convicted in state court, receiving the death penalty. In 2004, Murphy sought post-conviction relief in federal district court, arguing that the Oklahoma state courts had lacked jurisdiction because the federal Major Crimes Act requires that a member of an Indian Nation alleged to have committed murder in Indian territory be tried in federal court. The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals rejected this argument, concluding Murphy had not shown that the site of the murder fell within Indian territory.Murphy thereafter sought habeas relief in federal district court, again raising his jurisdictional challenge (among other claims). The district court rejected his argument, but granted a certificate of appealability on the issue. On appeal, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit ruled in Murphy’s favor. Noting the parties’ agreement that the murder occurred within the Creek Reservation if Congress had not disestablished it or diminished its borders, the Court--invoking the Supreme Court’s 1984 decision Solem v. Bartlett--concluded that Congress had not done so. As a result, the Oklahoma courts lacked jurisdiction to charge and try Murphy for murder. Chief Judge Tymkovich, concurring in the denial of Oklahoma’s motion for rehearing en banc, however, suggested the case would benefit from Supreme Court review. He noted, among other things, that “the boundaries of the Creek Reservation outlined by the panel opinion encompass a substantial non-Indian population, including much of the city of Tulsa; and Oklahoma claims the decision will have dramatic consequences for taxation, regulation, and law enforcement.” The Supreme Court subsequently granted certiorari to consider whether the 1866 territorial boundaries of the Creek Nation within the former Indian Territory of eastern Oklahoma constitute an “Indian reservation” today under 18 U.S.C. § 1151(a).To discuss the case, we have Troy Eid, Shareholder at Greenberg Traurig.

In this episode Broken Boxes gets into conversation with writer and director Sterlin Harjo. We hear about Sterlin's journey to becoming a filmmaker and he shares memories of growing up in rural Oklahoma as 'that weird artist kid'. Sterlin talks about being a founding member of renown Native comedy group the 1491s and reflects on the beginning project that catapulted the group to what it is today. Sterlin also talks about Standing Rock as an Indigenous led global movement and we get his perspective regarding the film works that have come since. Sterlin also offers his insight for existing in a world consumed by social media and offers advice on how to approach creating film work in today's accessible media platforms. Sterlin Harjo belongs to the Seminole and Creek Nations, and is a native of Holdenville, Oklahoma.

Sterlin Harjo completed a year of development on his feature film script FOUR SHEETS TO THE WIND through the Sundance Institute's Filmmaker Labs where he worked under the guidance of industry veterans such as Robert Redford, Stanley Tucci, Joan Tewkesbury, Susan Shilliday, Frank Pierson, Walter Mosley, and Antonia Bird. Sterlin's project was one of 12 projects chosen from a pool of almost 2,500 based on the uniqueness of his voice, the originality of his story and the promise of this feature film offering something poignant to American cinema.
