Reaction is coming in after conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter made a targeted post on X against Native Americans.

Coulter posted, "We didn't kill enough Indians", in response to a post involving an Indigenous woman speaking at the Socialism 2025 conference.

Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. called Coulter's post "beyond abhorrent".

"It is dangerous hate speech designed to inflict damage on a marginalized community," Chief Hoskin Jr. said in part. He went on to say in his statement that such rhetoric has helped with the destruction of tribes, languages, and cultures. He also touched on Native Americans' already low average life expectancies, high suicide rates, and epidemic of missing and murdered indigenous people.

Chief Hoskin Jr. acknowledged that progress has been made on Indian policy in the United States, but is concerned her statement against Native Americans opens the door for other attacks to be normalised.

"The country frequently seems on the verge of political violence," Chief Hoskin Jr. said. "Coulter’s post implicitly encourages it."

Chief Hoskin Jr. said in his statement that we can either get used to the frequent attacks and watch silently as groups are dehumanized, or we can speak out against it.

"What Ann Coulter said is heartless, vicious and should be repudiated by people of good faith regardless of political philosophy or party. Some things are simply wrong and we cannot validate it through our silence," Chief Hoskin Jr. said.

The newly launched Sooner State political party also released a statement condemning Coulter's post.

"To somehow attempt to glorify the genocide of Native Americans is beyond disgusting, and it should be addressed by the Oklahoma delegation of elected officials immediately," the group wrote.

The party called for the immediate boycott of all products, media, and companies associated with Coulter. Read the full statement below:

I am sure the most modern intelligent systems that man built will come back with a response "No. when you consider the NT".
