    Slam the Gavel welcomes Bea Marnay to the podcast. She was last on Season 5, Episodes 114 and 193. Bea discussed reaching out to parents to help remedy the issue of the removal of children. However, that is to remove the funding to Child Welfare. This led to the  news article on January 28th, 2025, where The Imprint Youth & Family News came out with the article, "Child Welfare Leaders Stunned by Trump's Call to Freeze Social Services Spending; Legal Action Quickly Threatened."      "The funding is creating the BIG problem in Social Services, where they are  putting a dollar sign on our children, and they remove them for PROFIT. Not because they want to give the child a better a life, or not because of the "child's best interest," which is not happening in the courtrooms all across America, so the funding that was creating the removals for profit needed to be removed. This happened on January 28th, 2025. Apparently HHS employees were locked out of their offices. They are trying to bring in new staff." Stated Bea Marnay.     So much discussion in this podcast as Bea talked about a case where a child had gotten lost in the system and how CPS removed a newborn from a mother who had been in the foster care system. We also discussed how the traffickers are linked to HHS as RFK, Jr. stated.    To Reach Bea Marnay: ecett.org (end child exploitation think tank)***** Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.comhttps://ko-fi.com/maryannpetri*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Question: This was a question from someone in South Dakota. She says, "I haven't listened to all your back episodes, but can you address ICWA, the Indian Child Welfare Act, as it pertains to adoption? I live in a state where the majority of children in foster care are Native Americans, and ICWA, the Indian Child Welfare Act, is confusing and divisive. At the end of the day, I just want the children I care for to be safe. I understand the reason for the law, but I hate when the comments on an ICWA story about adoption accuse foster care providers of kidnapping.Resources:Indian Child Welfare Law Center - ICWLC.orgChild Welfare Information Gateway - Info on ICWASupport the showPlease leave us a rating or review.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes Lynnette Grey Bull from Wyoming to the podcast. Her traditional name is, "Morning Water." Founder and Director of Not Our Native Daughters (NOND), Lynnette Grey Bull pivots on raising awareness regarding the Native American women and children. Her focus especially is addressing the Human Trafficking and the Missing, Murdered Indigenous Women and girls issues.     Lynnette extended her role to the Wyoming Governor's Task Force for Missing, Murdered Indigenous Persons (MMIP), as well as the Colorado's Missing Murdered and Indigenous Relatives Taskforce. Lynnette Grey Bull played a major role in its creation and we discussed that in the podcast today.    We discussed the busy month of November being Native American Heritage month and Native American Heritage Day (the day after Thanksgiving). There are 575 Tribal Nations within the U.S. Talking about ICWA and CPS, and how that has impacted the Native American population, Lynnette also explained the human trafficking that happens to the Native Americans around large events as well.    "Native American women are ten times more likely to be murdered than any other ethnicity in this nation," Lynnette stated. NOND educates, trains and does presentations on Native American victims and those in law enforcement and social services.

The Michigan State University College of Law's Indian Law Clinic has received funding to continue its work of assisting tribes with enforcement of the law. The MSU clinic is the only law school clinic in the country that regularly represents tribes in both state and federal courts on Indian Child Welfare Act, or ICWA, cases. The NoVo Foundation has provided $400,000 in funding for the next two years to support the clinic's work. The funding will allow the clinic to hire additional lawyers and administrative support to increase its capacity and provide more MSU law students with the opportunity to work on ICWA cases and take on more tribal clients.  Kathryn E. Fort is director of clinics at the college and directs the Indian Law Clinic. She talks about the clinic's history and mission and talks about the types of cases with which the clinic assists. Conversation Highlights: (0:25) – What's your background, and how long have you been at MSU? (2:01) – Did you always know you wanted to practice law? Why are you passionate about experiential learning? (3:47) – What's the history and mission of the Indian Law Clinic? What do you do, and for whom do you do it? (6:04) – What kind of cases do you work on, and what are the key issues facing Native Americans? (10:08) – Talk about this new funding and what it will allow you to do. Babies in the river? (13:28) – Talk about all the clinics at the MSU College of Law. Listen to “MSU Today with Russ White” on the radio and through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your shows.

Since the U.S. Supreme Court's decisive confirmation of the Indian Child Welfare Act two years ago in Brackeen v. Haaland, the law has seen victories and challenges. In a win for tribal sovereignty, a decision by the California Supreme Court requires state case workers to make more of an effort to ascertain a foster child's Native identity status. Congress is considering a bill that would strengthen state-by-state compliance with the 45-year-old law. And the investigative new outlet Reveal explores questions about how a Utah public official was able to adopt a Northern Cheyenne child without ever triggering the standard ICWA process.

Native delegates prioritize treaty obligations for next administration New radio doc exposes ICWA saga with brother of former UT governor

Beyond building momentum for the presidential candidates, there is some work to do at the Democratic National Convention (DNC). Native delegates have a voice in developing the platform that Democrats look to as the blueprint to effect policy. How much of what the policy direction relates to issues important to Native Americans? We'll zero in on how sovereignty, ICWA, the trust responsibility, and consultation intersect with the mainstream push by Democrats and how that shows up in official party positions.

Welcome to Supreme Court Opinions. In this episode, you'll hear the Court's opinion in Haaland v Brackeen. In this case, the court considered this issue: Do the Indian Child Welfare Act's restrictions on placement of Native American children violate anti-commandeering principles of the Tenth Amendment? The case was decided on June 15, 2023. The Supreme Court held that the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) is consistent with Congress's Article 1 authority and does not violate anti-commandeering principles of the Tenth Amendment; the parties lack standing to litigate their other challenges to ICWA's placement preferences. Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored the 7-2 majority opinion of the Court. The Court has consistently recognized the “plenary and exclusive”—though not absolute—power of Congress to legislate with respect to Indian tribes. The challengers claim that ICWA infringes on the states' authority over family law, but Court precedent establishes that when Congress validly exercises its Article 1 powers, federal law preempts conflicting state family laws. While the Constitution does not expressly grant Congress the power to regulate custody proceedings of Indian children, the Court has interpreted the Constitution to authorize Congress to regulate “Indian affairs,” which is broadly inclusive. The anti-commandeering arguments similarly fail. Two of the challenged provisions apply not only to government entities, but also to private parties. A demand that public or private actors can satisfy does not require the use of sovereign power and thus does not violate anti-commandeering principles. A third challenged provision requires the states to maintain certain records related to child placement and provide them upon request to the Secretary or the Indian child's tribe. This provision also does not violate anti-commandeering principles, which apply “distinctively” to a state court's adjudicative responsibilities. Congress may impose ancillary recordkeeping requirements related to state-court proceedings without violating the Tenth Amendment. Finally, while the challengers also raise equal protection and non-delegation challenges to ICWA's placement preferences, they must first show they have standing by demonstrating that they have suffered an injury in fact that is “‘fairly traceable to the defendant's allegedly unlawful conduct and likely to be redressed by the requested relief.” The challengers cannot make this showing and thus lack standing on these claims. Justice Neil Gorsuch authored a concurring opinion, in which Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined in part, to elaborate on the history of the relationship between the federal government and Indian tribes. Justice Clarence Thomas authored a dissenting opinion, arguing that because there is no express constitutional provision that authorizes Congress to enact ICWA, it must be unconstitutional. Justice Samuel Alito authored a dissenting opinion, arguing that the majority's decision is contrary to the best interests of the children affected. The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted. If you appreciate this episode, please subscribe.

In Berkeley Talks episode 192, Sarah Deer, a citizen of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation of Oklahoma and a University Distinguished Professor at the University of Kansas, discusses the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), a federal law passed in 1978 that aims to keep Native children in their families and communities. She also talks about the recent Supreme Court decision in Brackeen v. Haaland, which upheld ICWA, and explores the future of ICWA. “I want to begin by just talking about why ICWA was passed, and it has to do with a very tragic history in the United States of removing children from Native homes,” said Deer, chief justice for the Prairie Island Indian Community Court of Appeals, at a UC Berkeley event in December 2023. “This issue really became a profound harm to Native people during the boarding school era, in which the policy of the federal government was to remove children from their Native homes and send them to boarding schools, sometimes thousands of miles away. At these boarding schools, the attempt was to civilize — so-called 'civilize' — Indian children, which was really a euphemism for destroying their identity.” Later in the talk, she continued, “We still see a need for ICWA because we still see a higher percentage of Native children being placed in out-of-home care. There may be a variety of reasons for that, but it took over a century to damage the relationship between Native children and their communities.”This Dec. 8 event was sponsored by UC Berkeley's Joseph A. Myers Center for Research on Native American Issues, part of the Institute for the Study of Societal Issues. Its co-sponsors were the Center for Race and Gender; Native American Student Development; and the Native American Law Student Association.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Photo courtesy of Sarah Deer.

Roemer explains what the Indian Child Welfare Act does, why it was created, and how some people are using equal protection arguments in order to challenge its constitutionality.

Maria and Julio discuss the record levels of heat in the world and the disappointing dismissal of reparations for survivors of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre. In our roundtable, Julio is joined by Rebecca Nagle, a Cherokee writer and host of the award-winning podcast This Land, and Joseph M. Pierce, associate professor in the Department of Hispanic Languages and Literature at Stony Brook University, to talk about Indigenous rights in light of the Supreme Court ruling on ICWA. ITT Staff Picks:  Joseph Winters writes about how climate change is driving more frequent and more severe heat waves, in this article for Grist.  “The survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre were not trying to punish the people of Tulsa, nor were they asking for a handout. They paid taxes to be protected by a law enforcement and justice system that instead robbed them of their homes, loved ones and livelihoods. The descendants of the enslaved are simply seeking a return on the investment their ancestors contributed to America's wealth fund,” writes Michael Harriot, in this article for The Grio.  In her podcast This Land, Rebecca Nagle discusses the sinister reasons that the far-right wants to use Native children.

The Supreme Court is about to decide on a case arguing that the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) discriminates against white foster parents. Journalist Rebecca Nagle explains how this decision could reverse centuries of U.S. law protecting the rights of Indigenous nations. "Native kids have been the tip of the spear in attacks on tribal sovereignty for generations."

Old patterns in intimate relationships are difficult to alter. A self-aware listener knows she needs more self-reliance when it comes to tough emotions. She brings a strong desire to change, and Jessica guides her to next steps.
