I'm not American, I'm not Native American, but I was on the verge of tears when I heard Trump speaking about how he had signed that deal. I can't imagine how it must feel to have a president that fails to empathize with people who only want to protect their land and the environment. I'm rooting for the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and everyone else who are brave enough to stand up against this pipeline. Nothing about this is just, and yet you persist. You are all inspiring; May you win in the end

[@luvdylanstar]

who brags that they signed with their eyes closed ? a big orange fool...that's who !! smh

And we need a full investigation surrounding the spraying of water onto Natives laced with chemicals that made their eyes, noses, ears, and mouths bleed several days later (delayed reaction chemicals) and which drove Native Americans into the river in SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURES. No one has addressed this. No one has assumed ANY responsibility for this. We don't care what authority TigerSwan or law enforcement (law abusers) or anyone involved with the authorization and implementation of this atrocity thought it had, things like this are a crime against humanity and that means ALL of us; not just the Indians; we stand with the Indians and we are in this together. This needs a good, close investigation and someone needs to be held accountable. This cannot become either "the ends justify the means" or "business as usual".

Mr. Archambault, I know you took some flack (I did too, advocating your message) when you told ppl the way to defeat DAPL was via the courts & you asked ppl repeatedly to go home. Yeah this legal victory is for everyone past, present & future, but I want to congratulate you too for making the right call. Peace to you, Brother.

[@CalGoldDredger]

Use "eyes closed" tape in court.

[@nilahmccarthy2136]

I'm sorry these people should not be charged when they are trying to make sure that they have things like clean water.

[@thewokegiants6282]

Great news for the Standing Rock Sioux tribe. After the thing has already leaked it may be too little too late, but great news nevertheless.

[@theresaellis4566]

everyone protect dave and nick also those who stand with the native people

[@allenehelmick3671]

time to stand for true democracy for all, not just for the rich

[@kevinallentoolechen1864]

water is life........... i keep you in my prayers. brave water protectors. ...

[@bheppes]

What happened to all of the people Detained and Arrested at the anti-DAPL protests? What happened to those cases?!?

[@greenenergy5481]

No More War

[@sandrayoung9098]

Right on happy to hear that 😊 my prayer with you all 🙏

[@bheppes]

What legal / sworn enforcement rights does Tiger/Swan have on Public Lands? This sounds like trouble for sure.

[@ottotheastronautleefpv3959]

FLINT MICHIGAN STILL HAS NO FRESH WATER THATS 2 OF MANY PROBLEMS!! UNITE!! FOR YOUR RIGHTS!!!😢

[@learnedhand7647]

There also needs to be a review on EMF mitigation 1/2 mile inside Lake Oahe on the east side of the river as well as the remaining 3 mile stretch headed east. The AC transmission lines were ignored in all of their statements, until their very last impact statement that wasn't written until after the pipeline was built. The section that covers the EMF mitigation, says that it will be assessed within 1 year. EMF fields can cause rapid corrosion due to AC discharge, which can lead to microfractures, and even explosions. If there is a rupture under Lake Oahe, they will have to dam off the lake on both sides, and will cost $billions to clean up, and it will never be the same after that.

[@JustMe-ec2ph]

As far as I am concerned that Chairman has some explaining himself to give regarding his actions towards his own people!

[@rickbettencourt6599]

I find trump making the statement that the water is still clean fairly laughable. Given the environmental issues connected to oil pipeline leaks and corporate entities polluting in Ohio, Michigan, Arkansas, North Carolina, West Virginia, and others I would imagine there are many who would dispute that statement.

[@stevewinsor5215]

if there are Truly NO Impacts, then why not keep the Original Route? .

[@MegaNainaa]

May be Trump and his family should drink that water, to prove it is as clean .

[@gracestaple7806]

they couldn't test the pipeline with something other than toxic oil? WTF... they don't even pretend to care

[@jpol3808]

THAT PIPELINE DOESN'T PASS THROUGH THEIR LAND AND AS FAR AS THE RIVER GOES, IT SHOULD RUN ABOVE WITH VALVES ON EACH SIDE AND RIVER DAMS ON EACH SIDE IN CASE OF A SPILL.

[@gracestaple7806]

J Pol did you watch the video? They SPILLED 200 gallons of oil during a test run

[@judithcampbell3354]

Trump is a poison dog in a suit. Much respect for everything you have accomplished in awareness n the peoples! Courage u are! Wreck-less endangerment of what? A piece of equipment! The police will think of ANYTHING to lay charges. Corrupt politicians, police and the government! Police brutality!!! Thank You for sharing this,,, my heart and prayers are with you All! Standing Rock is where I belong.

so happy!

[@allenehelmick3671]

America needs to wake up and see trump does not care

[@leonpse]

Like 20 people clapped when he made his eyes closed pronouncement.

[@domte7729]

"How can you be insurgents on your own land?"... Well... Definition: "An insurgency is a rebellion against authority", so I guess insurgents is a fitting term. Needless to say "insurgents" in Iraq are also on their own land

[@cherylbullard7064]

Well if We the People of the Constitution had the Authority then We could claim Trump and his Minions all Insurgents against the health and safety of the American People. and Treason for Lying straight to the American People and get away with it.

[@domte7729]

Yes indeed.
