Fire Thunder

Argus Leader:

Oglala Sioux Tribe President Cecilia Fire Thunder will face the second call for her impeachment Tuesday when the tribal council hears a complaint filed by William Birdnecklace Tate of Manderson.

Tate, who was the tribe's utilities financial manager from 2001-03 and is now practicing tribal law, says he began investigating Fire Thunder's administration in early June, shortly after the original complaint against the president from the tribe's former Head Start director, Alberta Iron Cloud Miller, was dismissed.
...
While his complaint alleges, among other things, Fire Thunder was not legally enrolled in the Oglala Sioux Tribe when she ran for president, and that she intimidated tribal elders, Tate insists the complaint is not so much a personal indictment of Fire Thunder as it is a call to reform a tribal executive system that blurs the line between setting tribal policy and managing tribal institutions.
