How do you feel about history repeating itself by the US trying to back out of the promise they made to DACA recipients?
For me the American government has lost its credit already for a long time. How the later governments have dealt with the treaties, is not what the treaty parties had in mind. I'm sure. Not trustworthy at all, just facilitating the money for the rich and, that might be clear, for themselves in the first place.

                                        I think the way we have treated the Native Americans has been disgraceful period. Through out history then Native Americans have had to tolerate our incursion on to the lands, the Trail of Tears, and when the get angry and fight back we slaughter them. Even now with them on Federally protected land we still have to tell them what they can and can't do, Keystone XL pipeline. Enough is enough. As for DACA it is also disgraceful. DACA is not expiring by the way. Trump unilaterally ended the program.

                                        I'm not happy with anything relative to what we do around the world to this nature in our names! Unfortunately, Native Americans didn't help their cause much as they collaborated with the Europeans against each other in many instances to gain favoritism. Always leading to betrayals. Sadly, this means to control society, land, and resources never ends even with centuries of its engagement forced onto us. The world is blindly engulfed in it even today.

                                        Yet....the American government is blazing around the world, "trying" to help other regions' "peace" processes.....I got to think that those participants see right through their bullshit. They seem willing enough to accept the USA Taxpayers' money and weaponry though

                                        I hope that's sarcasm. Being we're not promoting peace anywhere.
@William_Mary ; Truly was sarcasm...note the quotation marks. Twas'n't I that created that mis-label (misnomer ?) (peace process) in the 1st place
The American Indians way of life was bound to come to an end eventually. I’m certainly not proud of the fact that we repeatedly broke treaties while we were doing away with their way of life but I definitely don’t think we should be paying them today for something that happened long ago.

                                        One is genocide the other is a application fee process to permanently DELAY ACTION upon CHILDHOOD ARRIVALS. ...nor comparable....though SOME are border dwellers like the Santa Ana troops surviving the mission to liberate slaves of the Alamo owners

                                        Perhaps because the US often tries to pose as a moral compass for the world.
Maybe not so much these recent days, though!
@birdingnut Every civilization has done their bad! The US is no different. We are held to a higher standard, than the other free nations, and they are no better than the US. I really think in the grand scheme of exploits of history, we are no better or no worse.
@Leutrelle True, but people love their illusions, LOL!
