Today on Native American Heritage Day, we honor indigenous cultures whose influence and contributions are evident in communities across the country. Arizona is a special place, and the 22 tribes that call our state home are a big reason for it.

If it's true, if the US is willing to allow borders to be redrawn by force and let aggressors be rewarded, then the gates of hell are about to be opened.
This may prove to be the single most destabilizing and conflict-spawning decision of the 21st century.
