In 1903 the Agua Caleinte Cupeno were removed from their ancestral tribal home, the Village of Kupa also known as Warner's Hot Springs. The Cupeno were forced onto the Pala Indian Reservation. This is known as the Cupeno Trail of Tears.
On June 1st, 2011 and February 1st, 2012 162 Warner Ranch Evictee Agua Caliente Cupeno were removed from the PBMI Association by the Pala Enrollment Committee. This is our Second Trail of Tears.

Lawsuit Filed Against Dentons US LLP and Robert Smith
Great job. Robert needs to be stopped, he has hurt us enough. Pala needs new leadership and honest people to sit on the committees and term limits back in place. Only an idiot would believe Robert who has managed to stay Chairman for over 20 years, how does that happen, especially when so many people dislike the man with such disdain. He is corrupt and everyone that cowers to him is corrupt. Hope that this whole mess gets cleaned up right and he sits in a jail cell for his crimes.
@ 11:14 AM This whole mess could be cleared up if the EC would just re-enroll the Britten Family and start out fresh. But the EC has not even made an attempt to do anything. it's almost like they think that no one can touch them and they won't be held accountable for the what they have done to the Pala Band. I really hope that Theresa Nieto gets arrested for the financial crimes that she is 100% guilty of. There are so many large banking transactions that she has done and no one questions her. So it's not only Robert Smith that is corrupt, she is also guilty because she signs all the financial deals that are done for the Tribe it self, including counter signs all the large checks that are written and signed by her and Robert Smith. The IRS has all the banking documents from the last 3 years and are going through them, and hopefully they will be arresting them before to long. Praise the Lord for this and Pray for the Evilness to be gone from our Reservation and to never return. There will be JUSTICE for our people soon.
This is big. He needs to step down as chairman. We need new leadership. Someone that has unbiased opinions. The brittains belong. There is just a overwhelming amount of evidence. Who ever re enrolls them will be a hero and have the britian vote forever
Any voting that occurs at the meetings should not be legal, because the EC is not letting the whole Band vote on these issues. And this is because the EC is keeping legit members out of the vote by not putting the Britten's back on the Bands enrollment. Robert better stop acting like he is Obama and re-enroll the Britten Family members before the Government closes the Pala Casino. Because they are taking a BIG chance by listening to Sara D. and letting the Federal Court system decide this issue.
That's right 9:42 pm and we know that if need be, the Britten Family Members will go all the way to the United States Supreme Court in order to get this settled. Then all of Indian Country will hate Pala and there EC members.
I think that every Board that RS sits on should have an Audit done. Especially the ones that he is the Chairman of. I bet there would be many surprises revealed as to the honorable RS. The only reason he is on these Boards is because he buys his way in with all the donations that are made by the Band that the Band members never approved. Cut off the money and see how long he will be sitting on these Boards. Everyone in the County of San Diego knows how Corrupt he is and are still willing to have him sit on there Boards for one reason and one reason only. Right DA Bonnie D. That's why when the Donations are made, its always Robert Smith that gets the credit for them and not the Band. That just goes to show how money is the root of all Evil, and the Chairman with horns is on the top of the list. Think about it people, why would the PBMI donate money for the DA race. How does that benefit the Band. Poor Leadership= Poor Membership. We need a change on the entire EC, someone with a Heart, a Brain, and someone with a will to do the right thing for the entire Reservation. Start the ball rolling next wed. the 14th at the meeting for elections and put people in there for there ability to serve the entire Band and not just a few select ones. The ones that sit there now have proven that they do not have what it takes to be an EC Member. They have proven that they can be bought off with perks, such as COMPS,USE OF THE JET,A LITTLE EXTRA CASH, and anything else that benefits them. There attitude is, YES ITS MINE AND FUCK THE BAND, I WANT IT AND I AM GOING TO GET IT. AND FUCK THE BAND. Isn't the Band tired and sore yet from all of this fucking that the EC is doing to you.Get them out now because by next year it will be to late.
I seriously just hope the EC re enrolls before the courts do. There will be new restrictions as far as sovereignty goes if you let the courts handle it. There is a lot of evidence that proves the brittains belong. Don't let Roberts personal vendettas hurt our Rez.
We are giving a deadline to the EC of Pala of November 1st 2015, to reinstate the Pala members. Robert Smith,Theresa Nieto,Howard Maxcy,Dion Perez,Theressa Villa and Sheila (Smith) Lopez as Executive Council you have 22 days to fix your mistake and take another look at the Margarita Brittain blood degree. You have the power to end this or continue fighting the rest of your days as leaders of the Pala Band.
Why would you let Robert and his cronies stil run your tribe even if he lets the members back in? You need to demand a new council with the reinstatement. He isn't going to change a thing if he stays elected. 20 years is a dictatorship. Why was he allowed to change the rules to insure his dynasty? It should be a new leader every couple years. That way the corruption isnt allowed to be so deep with the man or woman in charge. The first thing a new chairman should do is order a complete audit and prosecute for any wrong doing. Saldano at Saboba was jailed for bribery and kickbacks for 41 months in jail..I bet his were tiny compared to what's going on at Pala.
I really believe that part of the reason that the Band has not acted to make a deal with Britten Family is because Amy at Regional and her niece Sara D. the bands ex Attorney are advising the EC to wait for the Courts to decide the issue, so that will let them. Regional, S.D., And Smith off the hook. And they could care less who gets hurt in the process as long as they aren't blamed for the shit that they have caused to innocent Native Americans. I also believe that the 9th Circuit Panel of Judges will read all the documents that are filed and marked as evidence and will be able to see through the scam of all scams. U just hope that they,9th circuit leaves a loop hole for possible RICO violations to be filed. That would be a big victory for all of Indian Country.
The EC needs to re enroll. For the sake of all indian country. This case could change how sovereignty works. Think about what's best for pala. Don't make it personal.
Courts could decide for us but you got to think, is that what you really want? This has happened before and almost happens with San pasqual where the tribe as a hole was bickering and so they relied on outside resources to fix the problem. The u.s. abolished their tribe and declared them American citizens with no sovereignty or land. That cab happen to us, I for one am against any outside help because it shows weakness in our tribe. We should be able to overcome this and replace who we need too replace. We have to stand up as a hole , the entire tribe needs to stand against them. And if they are breaking out own rules let's veto their asses out of their.............
WHO WANTS AN AUDIT OF ALL FINANCIAL RECORDS OF THE BAND?
According to the so called Constitution, here is the duties of the Tribal Treasurer. Oversee the care and custody of all assets for the Band & deposit ALL money in an approved depository. Treasurer shall disburse or oversee the disbarment of all funds ordered by the GC, by check to be cosigned by the Chairman or by the Secretary and shell maintain or oversee the maintance of ALL financial accounts, receipts,& records. All financial records of the Band shell be AUDITED AT LEAST ONCE EACH YEAR and such other times as maybe DIRECTED BY THE GENERAL COUNCIL OR BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
SO IF THE PEOPLE WANT AN AUDIT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MOTION TO DO SO AND THATS IT.
@ 7:03 PM that's good info. so Nieto should know where the minor trust accounts are for sure. Very interesting, I wonder why she lies to the General Membership at the meetings if this is part of her job as an Elected Executive Committee Member. I believe that an Audit needs to be called for ASAP.
@ 713 pm, it's called educating yourself........all you got to do is do some real research and readings of not only tribal document s but government ones and old treaties.......that are still active to this day. Sovereignty is to self govern and to be self sustaining with no help, other than from your own people. They have gotten ride of our previous chiefs for wrong doings.......why not now.
I know right, I should. Well we will see how it goes. People need to start thinking Indian ways not white influenced ways and thoughts and all this will be alot easier. But if I guess it was easy everyone would do it eh......I hope the best for us........ne suun et ne ataxem.
if we don't get the e.c. out we will take another cut on our checks,this year.they promised our checks,would go up,when the britten were ,dissenrolled,checks would go up,they told you a lie.vote them out,i know what I am talking about.
Right........... I was just talking about this with another tribal member. We need 1 designated person to stay with 1 designated box that is locked. only he or she has the key and never leaves it or opens it. then everyone gets to be there when that person does open it and then we count the votes.
Is that why you all sat around and did nothing while they fucked legitimate tribal members over? Because you were told your checks would go up? That says it all about the greed of P.B.M.I......Do nothing and you can all share the Brittens money? HAHAHAHA, so how did that work out for you all?
We can't change past actions, all we can do now is come together and right the wrong. Reinstatement would end a lot of the hostility on our Rez. I hope the EC will put a end to all of this and re enroll.
Take a look at pages 30 thru 33 in the above suit and notice that the Amendments were signed by only 2 members of the EC. That's Kilma and Robert. The whole EC is supposed to sign off on the approval of the Amendments that are made. Must have used some kind of invisible ink. And no business is to be conducted unless all EC members are present at the EC meetings. So why only these two signatures are the ones approving the amendments.Now we know why Kilma isn't speaking up.
Kilma is not the innocent person he claims to be. Maybe, just maybe, since someone said his wife left him because he is gay, maybe Robert got to him at a young age and that is why he keeps his mouth shut, because he does not want his family to know about this. Makes sense really.
What kind of Tribe would back a person that is running for School Board Member knowing that this person has molested a young child. If this Eric Ortega person is not taken off the School Board asap, I'm going to take my Children out of this School and put them some where safe. And then I will file a lawsuit against this school, this Eric Pervert and the Pala Tribes Chairman.
Maybe it's time to file suit against Kilma Lattin and have him answer questions in a Federal or State Court concerning the wrong doings that he is fully aware of during his time as the Tribal Secretary. Does anyone know where the snake is hiding?
Not only does Robert Smith back a child molester for school board member, not he has him running for the Vice Chairman spot on the Reservation. What the fuck is wrong with this place anyway. And to top it off, Robert knows that Eric Ortega is non Cupa and belongs in Rincon with the other Garcia Family Members. The people of Pala will never get this mess straighten out unless they take full control of the Band and revert it back to the people. So know we will have a Chairman from San Fellipi,3 EC members from Morongo, and a possible vice chairman from Rincon. Any other outsiders that want to sit on the EC, just show up at the next Elections at put your name in the hat. I believe that this child molester should not be on the EC membership. He has claimed a dead man as his Father as did his sister and the EC believes him and that is fucking wrong. Especially when the Brittens have full documention as to who they are and are being denied Membership in the Band. So who ever wants to do what ever to the EC go for it.
Someone on OP said that was the plan. Maybe Robert knows he is going to lose one of his battles and not be able to be chairman of both PBMI and PBLMI, and that is why he got the Old Pala land, he wants to put a Casino on that land and still be Chairman of Old Pala only, plus he might know that the sewage problem from the Casino is becoming too big for him to have to deal with. Either that or the drugs have effected his mind so much and the greed and lust have taken over all of his thoughts that he no longer has a soul, it is blackened.
Pete Trujillo sr. has agreed to run for Vice Chairman as a write in. All you have to do is write his name in the space on the ballot that says (other) or Write in. Show some support for this man and don't be afraid to vote for him.
Good Mr. Trujillo, go for it and see what happens. I think that you would do better for the entire than either of the other two that are running. It's just sad that someone didn't nominate you at the meeting. I wish I had even a clue concerning your running for Vice Chairman, because I would for certain nominated you. I'm sorry for the whole Tribe.
Heck yeah I hope you win........it's also sad that most people don't want to run.......if you want change you need to face them head on. I didn't know you can nominate your self. I would have ran for committe member. Next time.but good luck Pete.
wow man. you mad bro?what is it with all the attacks on the leadership? you mad bro..? it really looks like it really..! man out of all the 272 tribe's whom have cleared up their enrollment lists finally due to the department of interior's clear motive.. was to force the hands on some particular midwest tribes by requiring all recognized federal tribes to submit to a Census Bureau document requiring congress to enforce the tribes to 50 year Census that was taken..thats when most tribes whom already had reported way back then they had some things to do..but it was mostly done to promote political removal of some of the descendants whom were thought to be of indian decent only to have been misdocumented due to death cards and birth cards..miscommunications did take place..so why are still mad bro..my grand children can't get enrolled neither but are total indian blood real half bloods of total indian bloods mixed….so i understood the requirements of having to provide birth certificates and proof of leanage….but due to the requirement of only total pala blood my grand kids don't make the requirement..maybe in like 50 years from now when the last 1/8 blood dies they may go to decendancy leanage then ..but only then…do your home work bro…study indian case law so you don't look so mad bruh…being mad only promotes cancer within your self.not worth it bruh..i think the whole tribe had made a vote on the disenrollment it wasn't the chairman..all he does is chair the meetings accordingly..he keeps the peace with in the tribal meetings..he is ordered by the whole tribe to vote on our own tribal actions ..dont ya remember you were there weren't you..?..i was..i think all the members who could be there was there to vote on the disenrollment remember? we voted them off not the councilman we did the tribe had spoke as a whole nation all of us together..we did this not the councilman nor the chairman..it was us the whole people who were there to vote remember ..so stop being mad bro…you voted to…we all voted...
oh yeah did you know if you didn't make the tribal blood only requirement.and one of your other parents were registered indianfrom their tribe you might be able to get enrolled into that tribe..and then if your other parent is indian but not enough either ..go to the bia office ..you might be able to qualify for a indian status card..so you could still use indian health agencies anywhere…just so you know ..
@October 19 11:57AM Hey Bruh, it is spelled lineage, do your homework. You are the biggest liar, there was no vote on the Brittain disenrollment by the tribe, if so, post the minutes from that meeting, prove your lie is truth. Robert is the most corrupt chairman and you stand by him? Huh, you are either him, one of his butt buddies, or one of his family, bruh. Use your money to go back to school and learn to spell Bro.
I do not remember that meeting, however I do remember the meeting back in 1989 when the general council voted MB was 4/4. The meeting I think you are talking about is when Robert distributed those packets as to why he dis enrolled. There was never a general council vote on it. Other then the one in 1989
Robert dis enrolled based on a EC vote not a general council vote. The EC over turned what the general council had already voted on. Can you say ILLEGAL.
11:57 is loopy. And why is he just sitting back not trying to change the enrollment ordinance so his grandchildren can be enrolled. Look at how many families are at the end of their line!
He is to greedy to change anything that may help others, even his own family members. As long as he is able to breath the same air as the rest of us, he will remain corrupt. I'm sure he has a plan for any grandchildren that may pop up, or pop out from his daughters. He would probably claim them to be full blood even if he has to claim to be the father of his own Grandkids. He is a sick little German fuck that needs to be gone, one way or the other if there is going to be any change for the Pala Band of Mission Indians.
As far as the General Council goes, they (GC) are only there for show. And to blame if something goes wrong. Like smith always says, "It was voted on and it is the will of the people". Well then I vote to take him out by any means possible, and that is the real will of the people, NO VOTE NEEDED. This decision is final for the People of the Band.
11:57. Wow bro are YOU mad bro seems like it bro. The way you know all the answers bro. Maybe you should think about what your saying bro. Because you sound like a moron bro. But that's just me bro. I don't speak for everyone bro. But I am sure that most people bro. Agree with me bro. But you would have to talk to them bro. Can't wait to learn some more of this new dangled language bro. Please teach more bro. Thanks bro. I needed to expand my horizons bro. So thanks again bro. I can't thank you enough for the enlightenment bro. Preach on bro. We are all smarter now bro and may take some advice bro. Later bro!!!
11:57, you are the biggest liar, if you are truth then show the minutes from the meeting where the General Council voted to disenroll. Use your money to go back to school to learn how to spell, it is lineage, l-i-n-e-a-g-e. Pretty sure Pala's Chairman is on of the most corrupt ones around. He is the reason the tribe is fighting so much and the meetings are complete yell fests. You definitely need some help if you think he is a good person, he has hurt way too many people, he has stolen from them their rightful heritage and disrespected their ancestors, he is not a real Indian.
11:57AM must have some pure shit that they are smoking. There was never, ever a meeting like the one you are talking about. Can I have a hit of that shit before the next meeting.
the truth always hurts,why be a liar.if most of us were professionals in some field of work way before casino why would it bother them if they're grand children didn't make the enrollment because of the ordinances of requirement of the band.as i have seen this blog go on and on here i only see only a few who are obsessed with this bullshit no sense at all this blog makes .i mean who would even come and see such horrible spewing of hat and racist remarks,and the talk of doing harm to people.what the hell guy..maybe your gonna keep spewing out until you see no one really cares about this site anymore…your really not gonna do anything but spew hateful remarks.who in there right mind would even read such negativity.last time i checked everyone is doing just fine.and most are happy being about their own business.people who come to this site are really demented first of all.second of all no one really cares anymore about the disenrolled..everyone moved on its almost been 10 yrs already almost ..no one really cares guys.it was handled and now we moved on. sorry you feel upset sorry for your hurt,I'm hurt too.
OK Yoda, you make no sense. It has not been 10 years for us. It has been four years and we are going to achieve what we know is right. Are you sure you are a professional? Let it be known that your sneaky little way of coming on here and posting sporadic negative comments about the disenrollments and suggestions that we "get over it" is totally noticeable by your grammar and spelling.
gosh no pun intended,i was just saying out of all the 272 tribes who have removed people from their enrollment list was due to miscommunications and liars trying to be indian so many indian tribe haters.like your selves what are the other 272 tribes that had removed liars from their enrollment list too wander what they are upto? most likely moved on too.so what makes you so special to seek a congressional hearing on disenrollments.how are you gonna lobby the congressman to reverse their own laws dumbshit how ?.didnt you know it is gonna take two thirds of the congress to make a indian policy amendment.not in this life time guy's..its hard to get congress to keep them treaty promises what makes you think out of millions of people .what make you think they will help only a few numbers ..haw …your facing a up hill losing battle..so why spew your hate on everyone ..your starting to be a radical movement .which the government will see you as a terrorist radicals trying to push your weight around ..like i said study the indian laws and rights of the united states of tribes of america's..why don't you lobby the NCAI organization..even they will run from your undoings..you all are listed as free rein radicals..no one is gonna talk to you ..because you are the sole proprietor of this pala watch blog where they see your harmful language of threats ..why would they sponsor teorrism dipshit.
just know we know who you are we know where your at.your just as vulnerable as we are.if anything happens to these people this blog watch has spewed hate for as well as bodily harm to them..did you know anyone can harm these individuals you will be held liable for their harm done onto them..your gonna be put away behind bars where that big tree ape can have his way with your butthole,butthole.keep your viable threats coming.your sight is already tagged dipshit.i personally showed brian caladoosby he said the same thing i said about the battle.huh,go figure.well buddy just thought id crawl inside your head a lil bit this morning for my morning coffee. like i said no pun intended have a great morning buddy.
Good try, the Brittains are not violent people, the only ones spewing hate on this blog are either Robert or hired by him to make us look bad. If we were violent people it would have happened long time ago. Why do you think we are going through the courts and through the federal system? It is obvious who you are and your threats are on here now so if anything happens to any of the Brittains, then we know who it is that caused it and you will be liable for the harm done unto them. You are going to be put behind bars. You are also the one spewing out mean names. The 272 tribes that have disenrolled have not done it because of the messed up rolls. If you go to each tribe and check each persons blood of the people who belong to which tribe then you will discover that many of the disenrolled are the actual ones who belong and the ones in charge of the disenrollments do not, they are either from another tribe, adopted in, or just plain intruders with power. Follow the money!!!!!
You wrote: "if anything happens to these people this blog watch has spewed hate for as well as bodily harm to them..did you know anyone can harm these individuals you will be held liable for their harm done onto them..your gonna be put away behind bars "
You are confusing (either intentionally or due to ignorance) blog posts with anonymous comments. The blog posts consist almost entirely of documents with little commentary and/or excerpts from articles.
As far as anonymous commenters go, see http://www.thenationaltriallawyers.org/2015/05/no-liability-anonymous-blog-comments/
Anonymous comment are exactly that. Anonymous. You don't know if threats are being made by brittians or EC supporters trying to make the dissenrollees look violent. In four years has there been any attacks on Robert or any EC member? No. We are fighting this battle because of the overwhelming amount of evidence that proves the brittians belong. Mabye you should focus on the posts instead of peoples personal opinions in the comments.
your an idiot .period.keep obsessing over it.while we continue to move on with no hateful hearts.the tribe has spoken.watch you obsess over this even more.
Well, ignorant blogger, personal associates with Brian C, dropping NCAI president, that is impressive. While your at it, did you tell him how pathetic Robert Smith has his own nomaker, "Palarez", which he uses to wage his own online battle? Can you point out to Brian Caladoosbey that Robert Smiths methods of hateful spewing can be seen online too? Could you also let him know that Robert Smith manufactured evidence from probate records of a unrelated woman to create the illusion that Margarita Brittain was not who she claimed to be? Will you point out to Brian Caladoosbey that Robert Smith and his brother killed a man in the early 90s right in the very campground where the casino was built? That they stuffed a mag light down the victims throat while their uncle, the security guard watched on? Can you tell him how Robert Smith has used his position and (in later years) the wealth of the tribe to protect his drug dealing brother from being arrested during his long history as the main Pala drug dealer? Will you tell him how millions of dollars have been lost under Robert Smith's watchful eye. YEAH, IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT NCAI WOULD SIDE WITH DECEPTION, THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE TRUTH, ONLY PALAS DOLLARS. THEY CARE NOTHING ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL PLIGHT OF NATIVE PEOPLE, ONLY CARE ABOUT SOVEREIGNTY. ENJOY IT WHILE YOU HAVE IT, EVERYTHING EVENTUALLY GOES AWAY.
Tell your good friend Brian Caladoosby this: My fantasy is to see Robert Smith destitute and digging in the trash looking for his next meal, he is the most hateful man I have ever encountered and Brian C better be careful who he rubs elbows with or he may find himself being accused of accepting kickbacks from Robert Smith.
Ahh, you must be from Washington state, then. Sounds familiar, your ramblings. Next you'll be talking about bigfoot and taxes. And by the way, you are the biggest dipshit ive seen and heard. Go back to Washington, you pathetic loser.
The person leaving the weird comments is probably another Palarez, or Robert himself. I like how he says that everyone that has been disenrolled is over it and getting on, no big deal.What world do you live in? In the real world no one is over it. You don't get over some loser telling you that you are not who you know you are. Guess you have talked to all 11,000 Indians that have been disenrolled and they all told you they were over it. You just want people to be over it. Why do you keep coming on here and posting if you have no problems with and we bug you with our comments? Don't worry, the end is coming soon. How is Ireland this time of year? Better start packing now and remember to take your whole family with you, because if you don't they might not want to see you again.
guess again i was born in fall brook and lived here in pala it just so happens to be my dad sisters and brothers were taught early on how to run tribal governments so thats why i am so blessd with indian tribal law and the usa constitution unlike your dumb asses i went to college and studied and learned indian policy as well as internal affairs on indian governments relations and policy.so there.many others live in washington state to.take aloof around the rez and see their washington plates as well as idaho montana utah colorado florida mexico arizona need to know more about your people. as i see it you will have spent thousands on a government policy education thru your own court actions .i can tell you all have so much to learn yet.later on dude.
The EC should re enroll. A huge door is going to open if they don't. If the EC re enrolled they would stay in power. If the 9th circuit gets involved the EC won't have the control that it once had
@11:41, If you are just going to give us negative crap over and over then shut the F... up, if you want to help then give us information we can use. We do not care how smart you are when it comes to Indian-government relations if you are not going to help. We know it is a hard road, we know what we are up against. We have one major thing on our side, TRUTH, and eventually no matter what, TRUTH will win, whether it is here in this world or when we leave this world. We know the truth and we are right. If I die not knowing then so be it, I would rather die standing as a brave then to die kneeling as a slave. Those who give up are the ones who lose. They let their ancestors and their descendants down. Our descendants will know our true history and how we fought for our rights.
@11:41 AM If you did go through all of this schooling about Indians, and Government and shit, you must not have paid attention to you instructor, because it sounds like you don't shit about this Reservation and its Members. If you did you would see the TRUTH and help the ones that are being Wronged by their own so called leaders. So who ever your just because you were born in Fallbrook doesn't make you a know all concerning the Native American Customs and Traditions. You have a nice day any stop defending the evil doer's.
@ 3:21 PM At least I am not trying to be someone that I am not. I am here for the truth and nothing more. And I don't have to claim to be something that I am not just so people will think that I know what I am talking about. Like I said you don't know SHIT about Pala or it's Members. So go home and lets us live in peace.
@3:38 If you here for the truth start by reading the documents on this Blog as well as Original Pechangas Blog. Only then will you start to understend the truth.I'm from Pala and I do know all the shit about Pala.Everything you want known and all you want hidden,I or We know!
@ 4:31 PM I was born in Pala in 1940 so there isn't to much that I don't know about what's happening in Pala. If you know all the shit then tell us why the people put up with the EC lies and corruption.
I think that 3:38 put down the wrong time and that this person is mad at the jerk that keeps coming on here and cutting our efforts down, so I think that 3:38 and 4:21 are on the same side here.
You are right 12:08 that guy is a real asshole and should go back and crawl under the rock that he slithered out from. Sorry if I offended anyone. Other that the jerk that really knows nothing.
OK, I am willing to run for the Vice Chairman spot if that's what the Members want. And as far as the back ground check, I have nothing to hide, so that's fine. I am willing to do what the will of the people of Pala Want. I will do the Job that is expected of me and will be fair in all decision making that requires a vote. I have lived here on the Reservation all of my life and I can see some of the Things that are outdated and should be updated so that they don't get worse than they are. I know that it will be an uphill fight to get elected as a write in but I am willing to give it my best shot. I am sure that everyone knows who I am, and who my parents are. I do have some education under my belt as far as business goes. I worked for Ford Motor Co for over 9 years. I started as a lot attendant in the mid 70's and worked my way up to General Manager at the Vista Branch of Heller Ford. I also ran my own towing service for many years here in Pala, with contracts with the CHP, County Sheriffs The Border Patrol, The San Diego County Corners office. I live here in Pala with my wife of 34 years and our family of 4 kids and Great Grandkids. I would be very proud to serve the Members of Our Reservation as their Vice Chairman, in fact it would be an Honor. My father, Peter P Trujillo was involved a little, here and their with the Tribe ,but was mainly involved with the housing dept. My Mother Betty Trujillo was the cook at the Pala Mission School for many years . I really do ,with a sincere Heart care about our Reservation and all Tribal Members. If I an elected I can without any doubt be fair with all members and listen to what you have to say with an open mind and an open Heart. I also promise to do the job expected of me by the Members of the General Council. I will sit on the EC board as your voice, the voice of the people. I also as your elected official, will try to the best of my ability to do the will of the entire Membership and be fair in my decision making and voting process on issues that require the EC's vote. I am my own person and I can not be swayed to do anything that may be against The Customs and Traditions of the Band. I was raised to believe in those Customs and Traditions by my Dad and am thankful to him in doing so. So Yes MY PEOPLE IT WOULD BE AN HONOR TO BE YOUR VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE PALA BAND OF MISSION.LETS MAKE PALA ONCE AGAIN A HAPPY RESERVATION. VOTE FOR PETER F TRUJILLO SR. FOR VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE PALA BAND OF MISSION INDIANS.THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
Yay, good for you Pete, you should make a flyer and hand it out and tell others to tell people that they know who live off of the Reservation. If I was not disenrolled, I would vote for you. I will be praying for you and for positive things to happen for all of the people of Pala.
For those of us that are going to vote for Pete remember he is running as a write in so we will have to print his name in the space provided on the ballot. Also his name will have to be spelt correctly so no one can dispute the vote so maybe you should write his name on a piece of paper so it will be the right way on the ballot. Print his name as follows, Peter Trujillo sr. There should be a space provided on the ballot to print his name. Don't forget to place a check mark or an X if the ballot calls for it.
Good for Pete. I really hope he makes it because he really does care about the Reservation and all of its members. I would just like to thank you Pete for caring enough about us to take a tough road like this,and may the Creator guild you through the path and bring happiness to everyone. Good luck and God Bless You Sir.
Pete if your running for V.C.start showing up on the rez and start shaking hands that way we know your for real.All this write in talk is taking away from the comments on this case.Is this real or fantasy island!
@ 4:17 PM You are right, and I am sorry but I have been concentrating on some things that need attention here in Pala. I do however plan to go around a talk with Members about things and try and get their vote. Thank for the push, I think I really needed it. Respectfully, Peter F. Trujillo sr.
The agenda for the next Meeting AT PALA is just plain stupid. The EC wants even more power from the GC to Kick out even Tribal Members without the General Membership authority. This is just another power grab by the EC and is NOT A GOOD IDEA. The General membership has given to EC to much power already and now they want even more. The GC SHOULD have a vote as to who is evicted or banished from the Reservation. DON'T GIVE THEM ANYMORE POWER TO USE AGAINST THE MEMBERS. THEY WILL USE THIS TO DIS-ENROLL MORE FAMILIES AND THE GENERL MEMBERSHIP WILL HAVE NO SAY IN THE MATTER.VOTE IT DOWN OR THEY MAY USE IT TO GET RID OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY OR FRIENDS. VOTE IT DOWN,NO MORE POWER FOR THE EC.THIS IS ALSO A WAY FOR ROBERT TO GET THE LAND ORDIANCE TO GO HIS WAY.THE ONE THAT GOT TURNED DOWN AT A PRIOR MEETING.WE NEW THAT THEY WOULD TRY AND FIND A WAY TO SNEAK IT BACK IN WITHOUT THE GC KNOWLEDGE.VOTE IT DOWN AGAIN.
They also want the General Membership to approve the hiring of all Attorneys to be the EC's approval and not the GC. They even have DENTONS Law Firm with Sara D. on the list. Again Members of PALA VOTE IT DOWN, this is just a cover up for Robert and the EC to show that the General Membership approved Denton Law Firm as the Tribes Attorneys. VOTE IT DOWN< NO MORE BULLSHIT TO COVER UP ROBERTS USING TRIBAL FUND TO PAY HIS ATTORNEY FEE'S FOR PERSONAL ISSUES.VOTE IT DOWN PALA MEMBERS. "NO MORE POWER TO THE EC.
@ 11:08, NOT UNTIL THE PEOPLE START VOTING NO ON EBRYTHING THAT THE EC WANTS TO HAVE APPROVED. I REALLY HOPE THAT IT IS TURNED DOWN AND ROBERT IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE CONCERNING THIS LAWSUIT. THIS WOULD BE A VERY GOOD START FOR PALA TO VOTE NO ON THESE ISSUES. THERE ARE MORE THINGS ON THE NEXT AGENDA THAT NEED TO BE VOTED DOWN BECAUSE IT GIVES THE EC MORE POWER OVER THE RESERVATION AND THE MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE.THEY WANT TO GC TO GIVE THEM THE POWER TO EVICT ANYONE EVEN TRIBAL MEMBERS FROM THE RESERVATION WITHOUT HAVING TO GET THE APPROVAL OF THE GENERAL NENBERS, WHICH IS NOT GOOD. THAT MEANS THAT IF THE EC DOESN'T LIKE SOMETHING THAT YOU DID, THEY CAN KICK YOU OUT OF THE RESERVATION WITHOUT THE MEMBERSHIP APPROVAL. VOTE IT DOWN OR SUFFER THE OUTCOME.
THE EC NEEDS TO BE CHANGED ASAP BEFORE SMITH DESTROYS MORE LIVES AND THE RESERVATION LOSES EVERYTHING.VOTE NO ON ALL OF THIS POWER GRAB BY THE EC.PLEASE.
This is another reason why you should not vote for Eric Garcia Ortega for vice chairman. Because he is a yes man when it comes to Robert Smith and his request.
I'm sure that Robert will use that incident with Jarrod Hill, you know the double shooting of Teresa Nieto's niece and nephew on the rez, to emphasize the importance to have this "Permission for the Executive Committee to exclude immediate threats and ratified at the next General Council Meeting, etc....2.j. The General Council will authorize the Executive Committee to remove members or non members from the Reservation by taking the appropriate legal or other action of authorizing the Executive Committee to do so." IN REALITY, WHEN A THREAT SUCH AS THE JARROD HILL SITUATION OCCURRED, THEY COULD'VE EASILY CALLED FOR AN EMERGENCY MEETING (3 DAY NOTICE), WHICH CAN BE CALLED ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION. EVEN HAVE A RESTRAINING ORDER ISSUED BY THE CALIFORNIA COURTS OR THE TRIBAL COURTS.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER PLOY BY ROBERT TO ACHIEVE ULTIMATE CONTROL OVER ALL HIS MINIONS. HE WILL USE THIS CLUB TO BEAT ALL HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES DOWN.
This is just another way for Robert to get his way for the land assignment ordinance that was voted down at another special meeting. He is trying to trick the Member of the Pala Band of Mission Indians yet again. VOTE NO ON THIS ISSUE . IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE TRIBE, OR THE RESERVATION RESIDENTS. THINK WITH YOUR BRAINS PEOPLE AND DON'T BE FOOLED ANYMORE.
Robert probably hired the guy to do it, because things are starting to blow up for him, so what better thing to do than to make it look like he and his EC are heroes? Plus it takes the heat directly off of him for a while. Typical political move. He obviously does not care who gets hurt as long as he is still in power and stealing from the tribe and ruining others lives, that is all he cares about. Look at how much more power he is trying to get with this meeting. What families would be affected if the Lugos were disenrolled? They are pretty big, he does not want them to get a chance to vote to keep themselves in, so if Eric wins and this change to EC power goes through, there will be many more disenrollments in the tribe and they will be done secretly, and those people will not be able to complain or fight it because Robert will say that the GC gave him the power. Next he will want to change the name to Roberts Reservation of Luiseno Indians.
vote no on the Attorney's and let the courts decide the fate of Robert Smith concerning this lawsuit. He needs to be held accountable for his own actions and the Tribe should have no financial burden to pay for his Attorney fees. Let the suit move forward.
I think that this shooting and the passing of Nieto's mom is all part of the Karma that T.Nieto has coming to her for what she has done and is still doing to Tribal Members. Karma is a real bitch when it starts it has no mercy on the affected ones.
@4:50 PM You could be right as to the karma and Nieto. However I thought that it would affect her or her husband first then her grandchildren. But who really knows how it will strike. And we should not question the way that KARMA works to bring justice to the abusers. If I were her I would would either step down from the EC and deal with the outcome of the bad karma, or I would stand up and be truthful to the General Membership and be honest with them as to how and why they dis-enrolled the Britten Family. That's the only way for her to survive this ordeal without anymore of her Family or Loved ones getting hurt because of what she has done to the people of the Pala Band of Mission Indians.

Great job. Robert needs to be stopped, he has hurt us enough. Pala needs new leadership and honest people to sit on the committees and term limits back in place. Only an idiot would believe Robert who has managed to stay Chairman for over 20 years, how does that happen, especially when so many people dislike the man with such disdain. He is corrupt and everyone that cowers to him is corrupt. Hope that this whole mess gets cleaned up right and he sits in a jail cell for his crimes.
@ 11:14 AM
This whole mess could be cleared up if the EC would just re-enroll the Britten Family and start out fresh. But the EC has not even made an attempt to do anything. it's almost like they think that no one can touch them and they won't be held accountable for the what they have done to the Pala Band.
I really hope that Theresa Nieto gets arrested for the financial crimes that she is 100% guilty of.
There are so many large banking transactions that she has done and no one questions her.
So it's not only Robert Smith that is corrupt, she is also guilty because she signs all the financial deals that are done for the Tribe it self, including counter signs all the large checks that are written and signed by her and Robert Smith.
The IRS has all the banking documents from the last 3 years and are going through them, and hopefully they will be arresting them before to long. Praise the Lord for this and Pray for the Evilness to be gone from our Reservation and to never return. There will be JUSTICE for our people soon.
This is big. He needs to step down as chairman. We need new leadership. Someone that has unbiased opinions. The brittains belong. There is just a overwhelming amount of evidence. Who ever re enrolls them will be a hero and have the britian vote forever
Any voting that occurs at the meetings should not be legal, because the EC is not letting the whole Band vote on these issues. And this is because the EC is keeping legit members out of the vote by not putting the Britten's back on the Bands enrollment.
Robert better stop acting like he is Obama and re-enroll the Britten Family members before the Government closes the Pala Casino.
Because they are taking a BIG chance by listening to Sara D. and letting the Federal Court system decide this issue.
That's right 9:42 pm and we know that if need be, the Britten Family Members will go all the way to the United States Supreme Court in order to get this settled.
Then all of Indian Country will hate Pala and there EC members.
@9:42 Obama seriously, that just makes you sound stupid. You must not be a Britten and just trying to cause trouble.
I think that every Board that RS sits on should have an Audit done.
Especially the ones that he is the Chairman of.
I bet there would be many surprises revealed as to the honorable RS.
The only reason he is on these Boards is because he buys his way in with all the donations that are made by the Band that the Band members never approved. Cut off the money and see how long he will be sitting on these Boards.
Everyone in the County of San Diego knows how Corrupt he is and are still willing to have him sit on there Boards for one reason and one reason only. Right DA Bonnie D.
That's why when the Donations are made, its always Robert Smith that gets the credit for them and not the Band. That just goes to show how money is the root of all Evil, and the Chairman with horns is on the top of the list.
Think about it people, why would the PBMI donate money for the DA race. How does that benefit the Band. Poor Leadership= Poor Membership.
We need a change on the entire EC, someone with a Heart, a Brain, and
someone with a will to do the right thing for the entire Reservation.
Start the ball rolling next wed. the 14th at the meeting for elections and put people in there for there ability to serve the entire Band and not just a few select ones. The ones that sit there now have proven that they do not have what it takes to be an EC Member. They have proven that they can be bought off with perks, such as COMPS,USE OF THE JET,A LITTLE EXTRA CASH, and anything else that benefits them. There attitude is, YES ITS MINE AND FUCK THE BAND, I WANT IT AND I AM GOING TO GET IT. AND FUCK THE BAND.
Isn't the Band tired and sore yet from all of this fucking that the EC is doing to you.Get them out now because by next year it will be to late.
I seriously just hope the EC re enrolls before the courts do. There will be new restrictions as far as sovereignty goes if you let the courts handle it. There is a lot of evidence that proves the brittains belong. Don't let Roberts personal vendettas hurt our Rez.
We are giving a deadline to the EC of Pala of November 1st 2015, to reinstate the Pala members. Robert Smith,Theresa Nieto,Howard Maxcy,Dion Perez,Theressa Villa and Sheila (Smith) Lopez as Executive Council you have 22 days to fix your mistake and take another look at the Margarita Brittain blood degree. You have the power to end this or continue fighting the rest of your days as leaders of the Pala Band.
Elections are coming up why don't we just vote in a hole new EC
Why would you let Robert and his cronies stil run your tribe even if he lets the members back in? You need to demand a new council with the reinstatement. He isn't going to change a thing if he stays elected. 20 years is a dictatorship. Why was he allowed to change the rules to insure his dynasty? It should be a new leader every couple years. That way the corruption isnt allowed to be so deep with the man or woman in charge. The first thing a new chairman should do is order a complete audit and prosecute for any wrong doing. Saldano at Saboba was jailed for bribery and kickbacks for 41 months in jail..I bet his were tiny compared to what's going on at Pala.
I really believe that part of the reason that the Band has not acted to make a deal with Britten Family is because Amy at Regional and her niece Sara D. the bands ex Attorney are advising the EC to wait for the Courts to decide the issue, so that will let them. Regional, S.D., And Smith off the hook. And they could care less who gets hurt in the process as long as they aren't blamed for the shit that they have caused to innocent Native Americans.
I also believe that the 9th Circuit Panel of Judges will read all the documents that are filed and marked as evidence and will be able to see through the scam of all scams.
U just hope that they,9th circuit leaves a loop hole for possible RICO violations to be filed. That would be a big victory for all of Indian Country.
The EC needs to re enroll. For the sake of all indian country. This case could change how sovereignty works. Think about what's best for pala. Don't make it personal.
Courts could decide for us but you got to think, is that what you really want? This has happened before and almost happens with San pasqual where the tribe as a hole was bickering and so they relied on outside resources to fix the problem. The u.s. abolished their tribe and declared them American citizens with no sovereignty or land. That cab happen to us, I for one am against any outside help because it shows weakness in our tribe. We should be able to overcome this and replace who we need too replace. We have to stand up as a hole , the entire tribe needs to stand against them. And if they are breaking out own rules let's veto their asses out of their.............
WHO WANTS AN AUDIT OF ALL FINANCIAL RECORDS OF THE BAND?
According to the so called Constitution, here is the duties of the Tribal Treasurer.
Oversee the care and custody of all assets for the Band & deposit ALL money in an approved depository.
Treasurer shall disburse or oversee the disbarment of all funds ordered by the GC, by check to be cosigned by the Chairman or by the Secretary and shell maintain or oversee the maintance of ALL financial accounts, receipts,& records.
All financial records of the Band shell be AUDITED AT LEAST ONCE EACH YEAR and such other times as maybe DIRECTED BY THE GENERAL COUNCIL OR BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
SO IF THE PEOPLE WANT AN AUDIT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MOTION TO DO SO AND THATS IT.
@ 2:59 why should we trust your post.
What is Breaking out own rules. and lets Veto their asses out of their.
Do you mean Breaking OUR own rules.?
And Vote their asses out.?
You should run for Vice Chairman this Election, seriously.
.
@ 7:03 PM
that's good info. so Nieto should know where the minor trust accounts are for sure.
Very interesting, I wonder why she lies to the General Membership at the meetings if this is part of her job as an Elected Executive Committee Member.
I believe that an Audit needs to be called for ASAP.
@ 713 pm, it's called educating yourself........all you got to do is do some real research and readings of not only tribal document s but government ones and old treaties.......that are still active to this day. Sovereignty is to self govern and to be self sustaining with no help, other than from your own people. They have gotten ride of our previous chiefs for wrong doings.......why not now.
I know right, I should. Well we will see how it goes. People need to start thinking Indian ways not white influenced ways and thoughts and all this will be alot easier. But if I guess it was easy everyone would do it eh......I hope the best for us........ne suun et ne ataxem.
if we don't get the e.c. out we will take another cut on our checks,this year.they promised our checks,would go up,when the britten were ,dissenrolled,checks would go up,they told you a lie.vote them out,i know what I am talking about.
You can't vote anyone out when the elections are rigged
Right........... I was just talking about this with another tribal member. We need 1 designated person to stay with 1 designated box that is locked. only he or she has the key and never leaves it or opens it. then everyone gets to be there when that person does open it and then we count the votes.
Is that why you all sat around and did nothing while they fucked legitimate tribal members over? Because you were told your checks would go up? That says it all about the greed of P.B.M.I......Do nothing and you can all share the Brittens money? HAHAHAHA, so how did that work out for you all?
We can't change past actions, all we can do now is come together and right the wrong. Reinstatement would end a lot of the hostility on our Rez. I hope the EC will put a end to all of this and re enroll.
Motion to get at least 15 -20,000 dollar Christmas bonus and don't no for an answer. It's your money and not theirs.
The EC will probably approve that Bonus because they want your votes.
If the EC cries they don't have the money tell them to take it out of Pala Interactive which is enjoying a 25% uptick in business.
Take a look at pages 30 thru 33 in the above suit and notice that the Amendments were signed by only 2 members of the EC. That's Kilma and Robert. The whole EC is supposed to sign off on the approval of the Amendments that are made.
Must have used some kind of invisible ink.
And no business is to be conducted unless all EC members are present at the EC meetings. So why only these two signatures are the ones approving the amendments.Now we know why Kilma isn't speaking up.
Kilma is not the innocent person he claims to be. Maybe, just maybe, since someone said his wife left him because he is gay, maybe Robert got to him at a young age and that is why he keeps his mouth shut, because he does not want his family to know about this. Makes sense really.
What kind of Tribe would back a person that is running for School Board Member knowing that this person has molested a young child.
If this Eric Ortega person is not taken off the School Board asap, I'm going to take my Children out of this School and put them some where safe. And then I will file a lawsuit against this school, this Eric Pervert and the Pala Tribes Chairman.
@7;02 PM
A tribe that is run by Robert Smith is the only answer that comes to mind.
Maybe it's time to file suit against Kilma Lattin and have him answer questions in a Federal or State Court concerning the wrong doings that he is fully aware of during his time as the Tribal Secretary.
Does anyone know where the snake is hiding?
Not only does Robert Smith back a child molester for school board member, not he has him running for the Vice Chairman spot on the Reservation. What the fuck is wrong with this place anyway. And to top it off, Robert knows that Eric Ortega is non Cupa and belongs in Rincon with the other Garcia Family Members.
The people of Pala will never get this mess straighten out unless they take full control of the Band and revert it back to the people.
So know we will have a Chairman from San Fellipi,3 EC members from Morongo, and a possible vice chairman from Rincon.
Any other outsiders that want to sit on the EC, just show up at the next Elections at put your name in the hat.
I believe that this child molester should not be on the EC membership.
He has claimed a dead man as his Father as did his sister and the EC believes him and that is fucking wrong. Especially when the Brittens have full documention as to who they are and are being denied Membership in the Band.
So who ever wants to do what ever to the EC go for it.
Someone on OP said that was the plan. Maybe Robert knows he is going to lose one of his battles and not be able to be chairman of both PBMI and PBLMI, and that is why he got the Old Pala land, he wants to put a Casino on that land and still be Chairman of Old Pala only, plus he might know that the sewage problem from the Casino is becoming too big for him to have to deal with. Either that or the drugs have effected his mind so much and the greed and lust have taken over all of his thoughts that he no longer has a soul, it is blackened.
EC has 17 days.....
Pete Trujillo sr. has agreed to run for Vice Chairman as a write in.
All you have to do is write his name in the space on the ballot that says (other) or Write in. Show some support for this man and don't be afraid to vote for him.
Good Mr. Trujillo, go for it and see what happens. I think that you would do better for the entire than either of the other two that are running.
It's just sad that someone didn't nominate you at the meeting. I wish I had even a clue concerning your running for Vice Chairman, because I would for certain nominated you.
I'm sorry for the whole Tribe.
Heck yeah I hope you win........it's also sad that most people don't want to run.......if you want change you need to face them head on. I didn't know you can nominate your self. I would have ran for committe member. Next time.but good luck Pete.
wow man. you mad bro?what is it with all the attacks on the leadership? you mad bro..? it really looks like it really..!
man out of all the 272 tribe's whom have cleared up their enrollment lists finally due to the department of interior's clear motive.. was to force the hands on some particular midwest tribes by requiring all recognized federal tribes to submit to a Census Bureau document requiring congress to enforce the tribes to 50 year Census that was taken..thats when most tribes whom already had reported way back then they had some things to do..but it was mostly done to promote political removal of some of the descendants whom were thought to be of indian decent only to have been misdocumented due to death cards and birth cards..miscommunications did take place..so why are still mad bro..my grand children can't get enrolled neither but are total indian blood real half bloods of total indian bloods mixed….so i understood the requirements of having to provide birth certificates and proof of leanage….but due to the requirement of only total pala blood my grand kids don't make the requirement..maybe in like 50 years from now when the last 1/8 blood dies they may go to decendancy leanage then ..but only then…do your home work bro…study indian case law so you don't look so mad bruh…being mad only promotes cancer within your self.not worth it bruh..i think the whole tribe had made a vote on the disenrollment it wasn't the chairman..all he does is chair the meetings accordingly..he keeps the peace with in the tribal meetings..he is ordered by the whole tribe to vote on our own tribal actions ..dont ya remember you were there weren't you..?..i was..i think all the members who could be there was there to vote on the disenrollment remember? we voted them off not the councilman we did the tribe had spoke as a whole nation all of us together..we did this not the councilman nor the chairman..it was us the whole people who were there to vote remember ..so stop being mad bro…you voted to…we all voted...
oh yeah did you know if you didn't make the tribal blood only requirement.and one of your other parents were registered indianfrom their tribe you might be able to get enrolled into that tribe..and then if your other parent is indian but not enough either ..go to the bia office ..you might be able to qualify for a indian status card..so you could still use indian health agencies anywhere…just so you know ..
@October 19 11:57AM Hey Bruh, it is spelled lineage, do your homework. You are the biggest liar, there was no vote on the Brittain disenrollment by the tribe, if so, post the minutes from that meeting, prove your lie is truth. Robert is the most corrupt chairman and you stand by him? Huh, you are either him, one of his butt buddies, or one of his family, bruh. Use your money to go back to school and learn to spell Bro.
I do not remember that meeting, however I do remember the meeting back in 1989 when the general council voted MB was 4/4. The meeting I think you are talking about is when Robert distributed those packets as to why he dis enrolled. There was never a general council vote on it. Other then the one in 1989
Robert dis enrolled based on a EC vote not a general council vote. The EC over turned what the general council had already voted on. Can you say ILLEGAL.
So the general council "the tribe" says MB is 4/4. And the EC "five people" say she is not.
11:57 is loopy. And why is he just sitting back not trying to change the enrollment ordinance so his grandchildren can be enrolled. Look at how many families are at the end of their line!
He is to greedy to change anything that may help others, even his own family members. As long as he is able to breath the same air as the rest of us, he will remain corrupt.
I'm sure he has a plan for any grandchildren that may pop up, or pop out from his daughters. He would probably claim them to be full blood even if he has to claim to be the father of his own Grandkids.
He is a sick little German fuck that needs to be gone, one way or the other if there is going to be any change for the Pala Band of Mission Indians.
As far as the General Council goes, they (GC) are only there for show. And to blame if something goes wrong. Like smith always says, "It was voted on and it is the will of the people". Well then I vote to take him out by any means possible, and that is the real will of the people, NO VOTE NEEDED. This decision is final for the People of the Band.
Speak for yourself I didn't see you nominating anyone at the meeting.
11:57. Wow bro are YOU mad bro seems like it bro. The way you know all the answers bro. Maybe you should think about what your saying bro. Because you sound like a moron bro. But that's just me bro. I don't speak for everyone bro. But I am sure that most people bro. Agree with me bro. But you would have to talk to them bro. Can't wait to learn some more of this new dangled language bro. Please teach more bro. Thanks bro. I needed to expand my horizons bro. So thanks again bro. I can't thank you enough for the enlightenment bro. Preach on bro. We are all smarter now bro and may take some advice bro. Later bro!!!
11:57, you are the biggest liar, if you are truth then show the minutes from the meeting where the General Council voted to disenroll. Use your money to go back to school to learn how to spell, it is lineage, l-i-n-e-a-g-e. Pretty sure Pala's Chairman is on of the most corrupt ones around. He is the reason the tribe is fighting so much and the meetings are complete yell fests. You definitely need some help if you think he is a good person, he has hurt way too many people, he has stolen from them their rightful heritage and disrespected their ancestors, he is not a real Indian.
11:57AM must have some pure shit that they are smoking. There was never, ever a meeting like the one you are talking about. Can I have a hit of that shit before the next meeting.
the truth always hurts,why be a liar.if most of us were professionals in some field of work way before casino why would it bother them if they're grand children didn't make the enrollment because of the ordinances of requirement of the band.as i have seen this blog go on and on here i only see only a few who are obsessed with this bullshit no sense at all this blog makes .i mean who would even come and see such horrible spewing of hat and racist remarks,and the talk of doing harm to people.what the hell guy..maybe your gonna keep spewing out until you see no one really cares about this site anymore…your really not gonna do anything but spew hateful remarks.who in there right mind would even read such negativity.last time i checked everyone is doing just fine.and most are happy being about their own business.people who come to this site are really demented first of all.second of all no one really cares anymore about the disenrolled..everyone moved on its almost been 10 yrs already almost ..no one really cares guys.it was handled and now we moved on. sorry you feel upset sorry for your hurt,I'm hurt too.
OK Yoda, you make no sense. It has not been 10 years for us. It has been four years and we are going to achieve what we know is right. Are you sure you are a professional? Let it be known that your sneaky little way of coming on here and posting sporadic negative comments about the disenrollments and suggestions that we "get over it" is totally noticeable by your grammar and spelling.
gosh no pun intended,i was just saying out of all the 272 tribes who have removed people from their enrollment list was due to miscommunications and liars trying to be indian so many indian tribe haters.like your selves what are the other 272 tribes that had removed liars from their enrollment list too wander what they are upto? most likely moved on too.so what makes you so special to seek a congressional hearing on disenrollments.how are you gonna lobby the congressman to reverse their own laws dumbshit how ?.didnt you know it is gonna take two thirds of the congress to make a indian policy amendment.not in this life time guy's..its hard to get congress to keep them treaty promises what makes you think out of millions of people .what make you think they will help only a few numbers ..haw …your facing a up hill losing battle..so why spew your hate on everyone ..your starting to be a radical movement .which the government will see you as a terrorist radicals trying to push your weight around ..like i said study the indian laws and rights of the united states of tribes of america's..why don't you lobby the NCAI organization..even they will run from your undoings..you all are listed as free rein radicals..no one is gonna talk to you ..because you are the sole proprietor of this pala watch blog where they see your harmful language of threats ..why would they sponsor teorrism dipshit.
just know we know who you are we know where your at.your just as vulnerable as we are.if anything happens to these people this blog watch has spewed hate for as well as bodily harm to them..did you know anyone can harm these individuals you will be held liable for their harm done onto them..your gonna be put away behind bars where that big tree ape can have his way with your butthole,butthole.keep your viable threats coming.your sight is already tagged dipshit.i personally showed brian caladoosby he said the same thing i said about the battle.huh,go figure.well buddy just thought id crawl inside your head a lil bit this morning for my morning coffee. like i said no pun intended
have a great morning buddy.
Good try, the Brittains are not violent people, the only ones spewing hate on this blog are either Robert or hired by him to make us look bad. If we were violent people it would have happened long time ago. Why do you think we are going through the courts and through the federal system? It is obvious who you are and your threats are on here now so if anything happens to any of the Brittains, then we know who it is that caused it and you will be liable for the harm done unto them. You are going to be put behind bars. You are also the one spewing out mean names. The 272 tribes that have disenrolled have not done it because of the messed up rolls. If you go to each tribe and check each persons blood of the people who belong to which tribe then you will discover that many of the disenrolled are the actual ones who belong and the ones in charge of the disenrollments do not, they are either from another tribe, adopted in, or just plain intruders with power. Follow the money!!!!!

You are confusing (either intentionally or due to ignorance) blog posts with anonymous comments. The blog posts consist almost entirely of documents with little commentary and/or excerpts from articles.
As far as anonymous commenters go, see http://www.thenationaltriallawyers.org/2015/05/no-liability-anonymous-blog-comments/
Who's brian caladooseby?
Anonymous comment are exactly that. Anonymous. You don't know if threats are being made by brittians or EC supporters trying to make the dissenrollees look violent. In four years has there been any attacks on Robert or any EC member? No. We are fighting this battle because of the overwhelming amount of evidence that proves the brittians belong. Mabye you should focus on the posts instead of peoples personal opinions in the comments.
@11;57AM
I think that this Brian Caladooseby is the guy that Dion Perez is seeing on the side. He tells his wife that Brian is an old school friend.
your an idiot .period.keep obsessing over it.while we continue to move on with no hateful hearts.the tribe has spoken.watch you obsess over this even more.

What tribe has spoken about what? You make no sense. U Mad Bro?
Well, ignorant blogger, personal associates with Brian C, dropping NCAI president, that is impressive. While your at it, did you tell him how pathetic Robert Smith has his own nomaker, "Palarez", which he uses to wage his own online battle? Can you point out to Brian Caladoosbey that Robert Smiths methods of hateful spewing can be seen online too? Could you also let him know that Robert Smith manufactured evidence from probate records of a unrelated woman to create the illusion that Margarita Brittain was not who she claimed to be? Will you point out to Brian Caladoosbey that Robert Smith and his brother killed a man in the early 90s right in the very campground where the casino was built? That they stuffed a mag light down the victims throat while their uncle, the security guard watched on? Can you tell him how Robert Smith has used his position and (in later years) the wealth of the tribe to protect his drug dealing brother from being arrested during his long history as the main Pala drug dealer? Will you tell him how millions of dollars have been lost under Robert Smith's watchful eye. YEAH, IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT NCAI WOULD SIDE WITH DECEPTION, THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE TRUTH, ONLY PALAS DOLLARS. THEY CARE NOTHING ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL PLIGHT OF NATIVE PEOPLE, ONLY CARE ABOUT SOVEREIGNTY. ENJOY IT WHILE YOU HAVE IT, EVERYTHING EVENTUALLY GOES AWAY.
Tell your good friend Brian Caladoosby this: My fantasy is to see Robert Smith destitute and digging in the trash looking for his next meal, he is the most hateful man I have ever encountered and Brian C better be careful who he rubs elbows with or he may find himself being accused of accepting kickbacks from Robert Smith.
brains my cousin dipshit.
i have so many real family members way up the governments ass it would make your head spin dumb fuck.
Ahh, you must be from Washington state, then. Sounds familiar, your ramblings. Next you'll be talking about bigfoot and taxes. And by the way, you are the biggest dipshit ive seen and heard. Go back to Washington, you pathetic loser.
gotcha eh!! get madd some more then try again.eh! i see you are obsessed !! who is the pathetic one ? really.
I don't speak Druggy. Can someone please translate?
The person leaving the weird comments is probably another Palarez, or Robert himself. I like how he says that everyone that has been disenrolled is over it and getting on, no big deal.What world do you live in? In the real world no one is over it. You don't get over some loser telling you that you are not who you know you are. Guess you have talked to all 11,000 Indians that have been disenrolled and they all told you they were over it. You just want people to be over it. Why do you keep coming on here and posting if you have no problems with and we bug you with our comments? Don't worry, the end is coming soon. How is Ireland this time of year? Better start packing now and remember to take your whole family with you, because if you don't they might not want to see you again.
@8:53 yes!
guess again i was born in fall brook and lived here in pala it just so happens to be my dad sisters and brothers were taught early on how to run tribal governments so thats why i am so blessd with indian tribal law and the usa constitution unlike your dumb asses i went to college and studied and learned indian policy as well as internal affairs on indian governments relations and policy.so there.many others live in washington state to.take aloof around the rez and see their washington plates as well as idaho montana utah colorado florida mexico arizona need to know more about your people. as i see it you will have spent thousands on a government policy education thru your own court actions .i can tell you all have so much to learn yet.later on dude.
The EC should re enroll. A huge door is going to open if they don't. If the EC re enrolled they would stay in power. If the 9th circuit gets involved the EC won't have the control that it once had
@11:41, If you are just going to give us negative crap over and over then shut the F... up, if you want to help then give us information we can use. We do not care how smart you are when it comes to Indian-government relations if you are not going to help. We know it is a hard road, we know what we are up against. We have one major thing on our side, TRUTH, and eventually no matter what, TRUTH will win, whether it is here in this world or when we leave this world. We know the truth and we are right. If I die not knowing then so be it, I would rather die standing as a brave then to die kneeling as a slave. Those who give up are the ones who lose. They let their ancestors and their descendants down. Our descendants will know our true history and how we fought for our rights.
@ 11:41 Your all lies,HAHA!
nice spelling HAHA!
@11:41 AM
If you did go through all of this schooling about Indians, and Government and shit, you must not have paid attention to you instructor, because it sounds like you don't shit about this Reservation and its Members. If you did you would see the TRUTH and help the ones that are being Wronged by their own so called leaders.
So who ever your just because you were born in Fallbrook doesn't make you a know all concerning the Native American Customs and Traditions.
You have a nice day any stop defending the evil doer's.
@ 3:21 PM
At least I am not trying to be someone that I am not. I am here for the truth and nothing more. And I don't have to claim to be something that I am not just so people will think that I know what I am talking about. Like I said you don't know SHIT about Pala or it's Members.
So go home and lets us live in peace.
@3:38 If you here for the truth start by reading the documents on this Blog as well as Original Pechangas Blog. Only then will you start to understend the truth.I'm from Pala and I do know all the shit about Pala.Everything you want known and all you want hidden,I or We know!
@ 4:31 PM I was born in Pala in 1940 so there isn't to much that I don't know about what's happening in Pala. If you know all the shit then tell us why the people put up with the EC lies and corruption.
I think that 3:38 put down the wrong time and that this person is mad at the jerk that keeps coming on here and cutting our efforts down, so I think that 3:38 and 4:21 are on the same side here.
You are right 12:08
that guy is a real asshole and should go back and crawl under the rock that he slithered out from. Sorry if I offended anyone. Other that the jerk that really knows nothing.
PROTECT YOUR SPIRIT BECAUSE YOUR IN A PLACE WHERE SPIRITS GET EATEN.
By whom, 12:08?
OK, I am willing to run for the Vice Chairman spot if that's what the Members want. And as far as the back ground check, I have nothing to hide, so that's fine. I am willing to do what the will of the people of Pala Want. I will do the Job that is expected of me and will be fair in all decision making that requires a vote. I have lived here on the Reservation all of my life and I can see some of the Things that are outdated and should be updated so that they don't get worse than they are.
I know that it will be an uphill fight to get elected as a write in but I am willing to give it my best shot.
I am sure that everyone knows who I am, and who my parents are.
I do have some education under my belt as far as business goes. I worked for Ford Motor Co for over 9 years. I started as a lot attendant in the mid 70's and worked my way up to General Manager at the Vista Branch of Heller Ford. I also ran my own towing service for many years here in Pala, with contracts with the CHP, County Sheriffs
The Border Patrol, The San Diego County Corners office.
I live here in Pala with my wife of 34 years and our family of 4 kids and Great Grandkids.
I would be very proud to serve the Members of Our Reservation as their Vice Chairman, in fact it would be an Honor.
My father, Peter P Trujillo was involved a little, here and their with the Tribe ,but was mainly involved with the housing dept.
My Mother Betty Trujillo was the cook at the Pala Mission School for
many years . I really do ,with a sincere Heart care about our Reservation and all Tribal Members.
If I an elected I can without any doubt be fair with all members and listen to what you have to say with an open mind and an open Heart.
I also promise to do the job expected of me by the Members of the General Council.
I will sit on the EC board as your voice, the voice of the people.
I also as your elected official, will try to the best of my ability to do the will of the entire Membership and be fair in my decision making and voting process on issues that require the EC's vote.
I am my own person and I can not be swayed to do anything that may be against The Customs and Traditions of the Band.
I was raised to believe in those Customs and Traditions by my Dad and am thankful to him in doing so.
So Yes MY PEOPLE IT WOULD BE AN HONOR TO BE YOUR VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE PALA BAND OF MISSION.LETS MAKE PALA ONCE AGAIN A HAPPY RESERVATION.
VOTE FOR PETER F TRUJILLO SR. FOR VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE PALA BAND OF MISSION INDIANS.THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
Respectfully Poster by,
Peter F. Trujillo sr.
Yay, good for you Pete, you should make a flyer and hand it out and tell others to tell people that they know who live off of the Reservation. If I was not disenrolled, I would vote for you. I will be praying for you and for positive things to happen for all of the people of Pala.
For those of us that are going to vote for Pete remember he is running as a write in so we will have to print his name in the space provided on the ballot. Also his name will have to be spelt correctly
so no one can dispute the vote so maybe you should write his name on a piece of paper so it will be the right way on the ballot.
Print his name as follows, Peter Trujillo sr. There should be a space provided on the ballot to print his name. Don't forget to place a check mark or an X if the ballot calls for it.
Good for Pete. I really hope he makes it because he really does care about the Reservation and all of its members.
I would just like to thank you Pete for caring enough about us to take a tough road like this,and may the Creator guild you through the path and bring happiness to everyone. Good luck and God Bless You Sir.
Pete if your running for V.C.start showing up on the rez and start shaking hands that way we know your for real.All this write in talk is taking away from the comments on this case.Is this real or fantasy island!
@ 4:17 PM
You are right, and I am sorry but I have been concentrating on some things that need attention here in Pala.
I do however plan to go around a talk with Members about things and try and get their vote. Thank for the push, I think I really needed it.
Respectfully,
Peter F. Trujillo sr.
The agenda for the next Meeting AT PALA is just plain stupid.
The EC wants even more power from the GC to Kick out even Tribal Members without the General Membership authority.
This is just another power grab by the EC and is NOT A GOOD IDEA.
The General membership has given to EC to much power already and now they want even more. The GC SHOULD have a vote as to who is evicted or banished from the Reservation. DON'T GIVE THEM ANYMORE POWER TO USE AGAINST THE MEMBERS.
THEY WILL USE THIS TO DIS-ENROLL MORE FAMILIES AND THE GENERL MEMBERSHIP WILL HAVE NO SAY IN THE MATTER.VOTE IT DOWN OR THEY MAY USE IT TO GET RID OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY OR FRIENDS.
VOTE IT DOWN,NO MORE POWER FOR THE EC.THIS IS ALSO A WAY FOR ROBERT TO GET THE LAND ORDIANCE TO GO HIS WAY.THE ONE THAT GOT TURNED DOWN AT A PRIOR MEETING.WE NEW THAT THEY WOULD TRY AND FIND A WAY TO SNEAK IT BACK IN WITHOUT THE GC KNOWLEDGE.VOTE IT DOWN AGAIN.
They also want the General Membership to approve the hiring of all Attorneys to be the EC's approval and not the GC.
They even have DENTONS Law Firm with Sara D. on the list.
Again Members of PALA VOTE IT DOWN, this is just a cover up for Robert and the EC to show that the General Membership approved Denton Law Firm as the Tribes Attorneys. VOTE IT DOWN< NO MORE BULLSHIT TO COVER UP ROBERTS USING TRIBAL FUND TO PAY HIS ATTORNEY FEE'S FOR PERSONAL ISSUES.VOTE IT DOWN PALA MEMBERS. "NO MORE POWER TO THE EC.
Will their evil tactics ever end? Talk about dictatorship.
@ 11:08, NOT UNTIL THE PEOPLE START VOTING NO ON EBRYTHING THAT THE EC WANTS TO HAVE APPROVED.
I REALLY HOPE THAT IT IS TURNED DOWN AND ROBERT IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE
CONCERNING THIS LAWSUIT.
THIS WOULD BE A VERY GOOD START FOR PALA TO VOTE NO ON THESE ISSUES.
THERE ARE MORE THINGS ON THE NEXT AGENDA THAT NEED TO BE VOTED DOWN
BECAUSE IT GIVES THE EC MORE POWER OVER THE RESERVATION AND THE MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE.THEY WANT TO GC TO GIVE THEM THE POWER TO EVICT ANYONE EVEN TRIBAL MEMBERS FROM THE RESERVATION WITHOUT HAVING TO GET THE APPROVAL OF THE GENERAL NENBERS, WHICH IS NOT GOOD.
THAT MEANS THAT IF THE EC DOESN'T LIKE SOMETHING THAT YOU DID, THEY CAN KICK YOU OUT OF THE RESERVATION WITHOUT THE MEMBERSHIP APPROVAL. VOTE IT DOWN OR SUFFER THE OUTCOME.
THE EC NEEDS TO BE CHANGED ASAP BEFORE SMITH DESTROYS MORE LIVES AND THE RESERVATION LOSES EVERYTHING.VOTE NO ON ALL OF THIS POWER GRAB BY THE EC.PLEASE.
This is another reason why you should not vote for Eric Garcia Ortega for vice chairman. Because he is a yes man when it comes to Robert Smith and his request.
I'm sure that Robert will use that incident with Jarrod Hill, you know the double shooting of Teresa Nieto's niece and nephew on the rez, to emphasize the importance to have this "Permission for the Executive Committee to exclude immediate threats and ratified at the next General Council Meeting, etc....2.j. The General Council will authorize the Executive Committee to remove members or non members from the Reservation by taking the appropriate legal or other action of authorizing the Executive Committee to do so."
IN REALITY, WHEN A THREAT SUCH AS THE JARROD HILL SITUATION OCCURRED, THEY COULD'VE EASILY CALLED FOR AN EMERGENCY MEETING (3 DAY NOTICE), WHICH CAN BE CALLED ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION. EVEN HAVE A RESTRAINING ORDER ISSUED BY THE CALIFORNIA COURTS OR THE TRIBAL COURTS.
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER PLOY BY ROBERT TO ACHIEVE ULTIMATE CONTROL OVER ALL HIS MINIONS. HE WILL USE THIS CLUB TO BEAT ALL HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES DOWN.
This is just another way for Robert to get his way for the land assignment ordinance that was voted down at another special meeting.
He is trying to trick the Member of the Pala Band of Mission Indians yet again. VOTE NO ON THIS ISSUE
. IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE TRIBE, OR THE RESERVATION RESIDENTS.
THINK WITH YOUR BRAINS PEOPLE AND DON'T BE FOOLED ANYMORE.
Robert probably hired the guy to do it, because things are starting to blow up for him, so what better thing to do than to make it look like he and his EC are heroes? Plus it takes the heat directly off of him for a while. Typical political move. He obviously does not care who gets hurt as long as he is still in power and stealing from the tribe and ruining others lives, that is all he cares about. Look at how much more power he is trying to get with this meeting.
What families would be affected if the Lugos were disenrolled? They are pretty big, he does not want them to get a chance to vote to keep themselves in, so if Eric wins and this change to EC power goes through, there will be many more disenrollments in the tribe and they will be done secretly, and those people will not be able to complain or fight it because Robert will say that the GC gave him the power. Next he will want to change the name to Roberts Reservation of Luiseno Indians.
vote no on the Attorney's and let the courts decide the fate of Robert Smith concerning this lawsuit. He needs to be held accountable for his own actions and the Tribe should have no financial burden to pay for his Attorney fees. Let the suit move forward.
I don't think it would affect the case against Robert. If anything it just proves that Sara was not the tribes attorney at the time if the incident
I think that this shooting and the passing of Nieto's mom is all part of the Karma that T.Nieto has coming to her for what she has done and is still doing to Tribal Members. Karma is a real bitch when it starts it has no mercy on the affected ones.
@4:50 PM
You could be right as to the karma and Nieto. However I thought that it would affect her or her husband first then her grandchildren. But who really knows how it will strike. And we should not question the way that KARMA works to bring justice to the abusers.
If I were her I would would either step down from the EC and deal with the outcome of the bad karma, or I would stand up and be truthful to the General Membership and be honest with them as to how and why they dis-enrolled the Britten Family.
That's the only way for her to survive this ordeal without anymore of her Family or Loved ones getting hurt because of what she has done to the people of the Pala Band of Mission Indians.
