The Pembina militia is still very much around and trying to pose as an actual tribe.

https://pembinachippewa.org/~pembina1/In 1970 Little Shell V Frank Lenoir would select Louis Delorme to be the next Little Shell. Louis Delorme was son of Little Shell III Grand Council member Karyence Delorme who was the son of the Little Shell II Grand Council member Aug-uhk-qway, who was son of Little Shell I Grand Council member Captain Joseph Amable Fafard dit Delorme. Louis Delorme became Little Shell VI.
In 1974 Little Shell VI Louis Delorme would select his son Karyence Ronald Delorme to become Little Shell VII. Chief Karyence Ronald Delorme is the current Little Shell VII.
On March 20th, 2020, Little Shell VII Karyence Ronald Delorme and the Pembina Grand Council submitted on behalf of the unceded and unconquered Little Shell Pembina Nation, The Great Chippewa Nation, an application of indigenous self identification to the International Community under the provisions of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UN Resolution 61/295).

Dear United Nations Secretary General and Secretariat of the Permanent Forum on
Indigenous Issues,
I am Karyence Ronald Delorme, 74 years old and the Acting Head Chief, or “Little Shell”, of
the Little Shell Pembina Nation also known as the last fire keeper (Authority) of the Great
Chippewa Nation. Little Shell is a title of authority in similitude to President or Secretary
General, of which I am the 7th since Little Shell I who was named Ase-ance and who died in
1811.
....Once able to return home I never left my father, Louis Delorme’s side again. At this time,
my father was the acting Head Chief, Little Shell VI, of the Little Shell Pembina tribe.
In 1974 I became the 7th Little Shell or Head Chief of our people, who are dispersed across
our ancestral lands in what is now the northern half of North Dakota.
....Kind Regards,
Karyence Ronald Delorme
Little Shell VII, Head Chief of the Pembina Nation

The Little Shell Pembina Nation has 18 members, according to Delorme, who said many other descendants were enrolled in the Turtle Mountain Band.
....On March 24, the Little Shell Pembina Nation officially filed a Declaration of Indigenous Identity and Rights with the United Nations. In addition to the criminal case, Delorme said she plans to file a separate civil claim soon to seek damages in a U.S. court.
....A fictional tribe called the Little Shell Pembina Band of North America, which has no connection with the historic Little Shell Pembina Nation, also materialized in 2003, according to the Anti-Defamation League. The ADL classifies the group as an extremist anti-government organization which, at one point, engaged in immigration fraud schemes, although it no longer appears to be active.
The descendants of the first chief Little Shell remain in the area. The 18-member Little Shell Pembina Nation are among those groups, led by Karyence Ronald Delorme, or Chief Little Shell VII, according to court documents.
