From Our Favorite Tipster...

You better get on this ASAP, Jerry Reynolds. This is another hot tip from the Washington insider who brought you news of the Section 20 regulations way back on May 12, just as soon as Carl Artman signed them and long before anyone else know about them.

So what's the latest scoop? It's another potentially devastating blow to Indian Country from our friends at the Interior Department:
I understand that there was a meeting the other day between Phil Hogan and Secretary Kempthorne in which Hogan was being told that the Secretary was exercising his inherent authority to review and overturn NIGC determinations. This revolved around the recent Poarch Band Creek Indina Lands Determination. I was wondering why your site did not have anything on this.
The National Indian Gaming Commission issued the opinion for the Poarch Band of Creek Indians on May 19. Looks like Dirk McGuirk jumped on Phil Hogen real quick!
