I’m not saying they have to commit arson. But they could always tell them a suspicious white-haired package will be available for pickup locked outside the front door at a certain time and date.

I just want him to go to jail. If he’s so into transparency why is he making such an effort to hide from the Swedish authorities?

Or, he’s just a massive thundering twatwaffle.

Someone in the Ecuadorian embassy really needs to take one for the entire global team and pull the fucking fire alarm. Then bar him from re-entry, like “you’re on your own now, suckerrrrrrr!”

Somehow I missed it the first time. She’s so gross.

I also really wish he’d gone in harder on her when she started blathering about immigrants as if she knew more about it than the guy with actual lived experience as one.

Since she isn’t one of those special liberal snowflake whiners and doesn’t ever victimize herself, she should be grateful for the edit. Especially the part at the very end where she said Trump needs to be touching more people, especially Hillary.

What the hell is she even trying to do with that facepaint?

I kind of want to hatewatch this but I feel like Nazi Barbie doesn’t really deserve any of my time.

But it isn’t safe. The pipeline is a threat to their water supply. It’s not an issue of if it will leak and pollute the water, it’s when.

I miss Kirsty. She was brilliant.

That is very, very different. Out in the middle of nowhere in the UK or Ireland? Yeah I could do that easily, because the big city is just a train ride away. In Texas though... you could be stranded in hundreds of miles of nothing and no public transportation, just the hell that is hours of driving if you want to…

But assuming that to be the case guarantees its success. Even if the chance is small, it’s better than the 0% chance you have of changing something if the fight seems too difficult to even bother with.

I don’t believe we have to accept that situation, at all.

That’s why it’s up to us now to pressure the government to honor the treaties.

No, under the treaty it doesn’t belong to the U.S. at all, it belongs to the Sioux.

The Sioux never gave up their claim on the land as established by treaty with the U.S. government, even though the government has a long and shitty history of failing to honor the treaties made with tribal nations, hence it is land that remains “unceded” by the Sioux nation.

Hmm, maybe. I just figured it was another one he’d deleted.

Look at the map somebody posted further down, it shows the territory in question a lot more clearly as well as the locations of the camps the governor of ND is trying to order people to leave.

Not really. The law professor consulted said that later treaties do not cancel out the terms of earlier ones unless they explicitly state as much. The earlier treaty from 1851 included the land the Oceti Sakowin camp is located on. In addition, there is SCOTUS precedent upholding indigenous claims to earlier…
