council. we have a functioning judiciary, supreme court, and district courts. how did we get there? in the 19 sixties there is more of a push for rights for a lot of folks in this country that ought to have had rights and had the rights suppressed. indigenous rights in the 1971's, i think the principal chiefs act is passed. it recognizes the rights of the five tribes. they were mentioned earlier, including the cherokee nation, to elect their own chiefs. elect their own chief. for the first time in decades and decades. the cherokee people could once again elect their own chiefs. i was looking at some cherokee historical society archives the other day. in the cherokee national historical society, there is a book, a council will, the very day that the appointed counsel of the cherokee nation, we started to appoint our own counsel, left their seats, this is in the minutes, and who took their seats? the elected members of the council, and elected chief. the great cherokee democracy is back in the 19 seventies. and i will tell you what has happened since then. we have been on a trajectory

the council house is here. there's a supreme court building, which is charming, which is there. this is just a sample of the buildings they have set up. this is the cherokee phoenix offices, the print shop where the newspaper was printed. it's still in print in oklahoma and i imagine you could subscribe if you wanted to. it's available online as well. now, these entities absent the phoenix were created pursuant to a constitution as i suggested, and this is another thing that the cherokee nation decided to do in order to establish its intent perpetually to remain essentially. they adopted a constitution in 1827. and the constitution included, among other things, a separation of powers government, that sort of thing, but it included also a statement of boundaries. these are our lands and an affirmation that these will always remain our lands. so it's clear from the adoption of the constitution that the -- from the cherokees' advantage they are not going anywhere. and this, i think, is one of the things that drove the georgians to contemplate more extreme action. the cherokees havi

council of an informal group of advisers called "the wiseman." these were foreign policy experts, including a former secretary of state, under secretary of state, other officials, including a supreme court justice that was friendly to president johnson before this. "the wisemen" had gotten together and supported johnson's war efforts. they endorsed it. by late march 1968, the wiseman are asked to meet again at the white house. they largely, if not, unanimously, sent johnson to find a way out of the war in vietnam. to make some changes to the war policy. and that came as a sharp surprise to lyndon johnson. so the wiseman and their counsel effectively turned johnson's thinking against the war. and he announced on the 31st of march, 1968, that he was not going to seek reelection . these informal advisors turned johnson against the war of vietnam. they encouraged him to change his view, his war effort, his war policy. so, in wrapping up our discussion about the cronkite moments i'd like to ask for your views, your opinions, your impressions as to what makes war a particularly fertile time for media mythmaking? we discussed the yellow journalism in the spanish -- spanish-american war p

supreme court short list came in, ms. jackson -- judge jackson issued a ruling in a case brought by house democrats who wanted to compel former white house councilcgahn to testify. while we can debate the conclusions of judge -- that judge jackson made, one thing is clear, the 120-page ruling had a purpose. i think rachel maddow explained the purpose of the 120-page ruling well. if the production crew can run the video clip of ms. maddow, do so now. >> the judge in this case, tonight has ruled against the president and has ruled that in this specific instance, the official that the president has instructed to defy the subpoena, former white house council don mcgahn, the judge says don mcgahn must comply with that subpoena and must turn up to congress to testify. and this is a long ruling tonight. it's -- but it's interesting. it seems to me like it is written with a broad audience in mind. because it's not a superlegalistic thing. it's not a order that mcgahn has to show up and here's the precedence. this is the kind of judicial ruling that is -- if this were an indictment, you would call it a speaking indictment. this is a ruling that is design
