How did the United States justify the restriction of Native American life caused by the expansion of its boundaries?

The United States justified the restriction of Native American life caused by the expansion of its boundaries by believing the concept of Manifest Destiny. Because of Manifest Destiny, the U.S. had a “valid” reason to expand, and to decrease the controlled land of the Native Americans.
