Stop DAPL 2/12 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

As is the usual case, not much is available this morning.  Later today probably more will be. I will post them after reading.    Moving this one to the top because this interview can teach others about what's going on, another view though it wasn't found till after 6:30 pm this evening.  It is long but well worth the listen: United States Is Still A Colony: Interview With Jacqueline Keeler On Dakota Access Pipeline  Dakota Access Pipeline Fight is Far From Over US Veterans return to Standing Rock to form human shield to protect Dakota Access pipeline protesters As Long As No One Gives Up Hope, The Dakota Access Pipeline Can Be Defeated Activists Use Divestment App To Target Dakota Pipeline Supporters What's next for Standing Rock?

Stop DAPL 2/11 / RESIST CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Anything that includes Morton County's assessment is FAKE NEWS.  They lie a lot like that person sitting in the White House.  Another reminder also: this isn't about infrastructure in the US.  This is about making money off of the oil as it is sold overseas.  None is staying here. For those who don't know, even though two tribes have filed injunctions in the courts, Cheyenne River Sioux and Standing Rock Sioux, DAPL workers are still drilling.  Actions can still be taken.  Check out every day an action, #NoDAPL 2017 Action Hub .  Other actions are located on earlier posts this week.   Army veterans return to Standing Rock to form a human shield against police In case you need to take a look at FAKE NEWSs for this is what it is, irresponsible reporting: Dakota Access Protesters Leave Behind Mountains of Garbage Challenge to pipeline finish to be heard Monday Heinrich Blasts Dakota Access Pipeline Decision, Stands Up For Tribal Sovereignty a...

Stop DAPL 2/10 / Resist Cultural Genocide

Not much out there today in the news.  Possibly more will appear later. It's not over yet. Think about the actions that you can take as have been mentioned in the last few days.  Pipeline spills in the news though, something the Army Corps has sentenced the people of Standing Rock to because there will be spills.   Colleagues say judge in Dakota pipeline case is even-handed  Can religious freedom block the Dakota Access pipeline? #DAPL Construction Begins on Final Section of Dakota Access Pipeline The F.B.I.

Stop DAPL 2/9 / RESIST CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Please think about taking actions mentioned in yesterday's posting, those you can do through mail, and calls.  As far as I know, all are still active except for the actions at your local Army Corps. Please check here to see if there are any actions in your vicinity today. These are ongoing.  Sierra Club's online action mentioned yesterday was sent out in the early hours of this morning.   Late posting things today.  Just had a thought.  Maybe not only boycott any businesses owned or connected in any way to Cheeto's family but what about these oil companies invested in the pipeline.  Teh company, Energy Transfer Partners who has since been bought out by Sunoco never stopped working on laying the pipeline.  Even with the tribes filing injunctions in the courts yesterday and today, these companies continue to drill. They continue on pipelines across the country.  We don't need new pipelines.  These pipelines are being laid anyway to sell the ...

Stop DAPL 2/7 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

In case you haven't heard, the easement has been granted without the completion of the EIS process. They're breaking the law with this action.  Once an EIS is placed in the federal register, the process must be completed.  Yes, there are other articles out there.  I've chosen not to post those that support more pipelines for the most part.  They've forgotten that the fossil fuel industry is dead.  No matter how much they try to force it on us, that's the way it is.  They can't change that. You may be wondering why I haven't changed the subject for today's post.  We can't just give up.  Stand up! Watch Chump Cheeto lie here: Army will grant easement for Dakota Access Pipeline . He claims no one has complained?  He claims there will be 35,000 jobs?  More like 35 jobs after the pipelines are in the ground.  What a freakin' liar.  How could anyone vote for this monster? He needs to be impeached. Note this article from a few da...

Stop DAPL 2/8 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

The person in office claims he hasn't heard any complaints about his decision on both pipelines? Withstand With Wolves has asked that we make sure he hears our complaints.  I used both Twitter and emailed through the White House website .  Flood him with tweets and emails that express your disapproval of his actions with DAPL.  In case you don't know, his Twitter account: @realDonaldTrump As can be seen by 3rd title below, actions are taking place across the country today.  It looks like arrests are happening already in these actions. Add or find other actions this month here .  If you don't reside in the US, please check here for worldwide actions. This action is through Earthjustice.  Let Cheeto know that he has been contacted regarding DAPL: I oppose the Dakota Access Pipeline . They're trying to reach 75,000 letters.  If you're one of those who doesn't like to write your own letter, they give you suggestions for the entire thing.   Pleas...

Stop DAPL 2/6 / STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Please continue to write your comments and submit them to USACOE.  Information can be found in several earlier postings if you would like to write your own letters.  Sierra Club also has a form that you can add to and submit from their site as do the Standing Rock Sioux . Click on either link to submit.   Or you can click here, Indigenous Rising .   More info can be found here in the Federal Register . I've already submitted mine.  We have until Feb. 20, 2017.   According to Indigenous Environmental Network, the following news has been released. USACOE is supposed to be given a process where they notify Congress regarding the easement.  Trump's memorandum including wording to wave this process.  If this happens, we will know Friday if the easement has been granted, and DAPL can begin construction of this pipeline immediately.  The tribe will be filing an injunction to stop the pipeline construction.   This is why it's important that...
