The pipeline is used to transport light sweet crude oil that is pumped from the ground, its a natural substance,not man made. And here are just a few things in your life that take oil. Your car, the road, transportation and harvesting of food, roof, cellphone,computer, plastic bags, EBT cards, some parts of clothing, mail service, power lines, windmills, solar panels, the packaging of a lot of foods, some people heat with it, airplanes, many things in the military that protects you, vaseline, TVs, radios, weather striping and caulking, and many more things that make your life more comfortable and..easy. So when you come up a way that everyone is good with for no longer needing oil to live then there will be no need for a pipeline, til then we will have pipelines just like we have roads, bridges, rail roads, airports, power lines, and telephone lines. From time to time pipelines do leak, and people fix them. The oil is already crossing the river, and will continue to cross the river as long as people have a need for it. If the Indians are looking for a war, they will get a war, and we all know how that will end. Good luck!

Authorities say no action will be taken to enforce North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple's emergency evacuation order for protesters of the Dakota Access oil pipeline.

Dalrymple signed the order Monday for protesters who are camping on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land. Dalrymple cited “harsh winter conditions,” and his order said the unpermitted camp sites are not zoned for suitable housing.

Emergency Services spokeswoman Cecily Fong told The Associated Press that authorities will not be using law enforcement or the National Guard to enforce the governor's order.

Earlier, the Corps ordered the protesters to leave federal law but said it has no plans to forcibly remove anyone. Hundreds of people have been gathered at the encampment for months to oppose the four-state, $3.8 billion project, which they contend could affect drinking water and damage cultural sites.

With the force already being used does anyone actually believe this?


President-elect Donald Trump’s investments in two companies behind the Dakota Access pipeline, although small, are raising concerns about whether Trump’s stake in the project could affect decisions he makes about the pipeline as president.

According to Trump’s 2016 federal disclosure forms, the billionaire businessman owned between $15,000 and $50,000 in stock from Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners, the owners of the controversial Dakota Access oil pipeline. A year earlier, his share was between $500,000 and $1 million.

The president-elect sold off his shares in Energy Transfer Partners, Trump campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks said. If true, it is unclear why investments in the company are still listed in the disclosure.

However, Trump’s financial disclosures also show he has between $500,000 and $1 million invested in Phillips 66, another energy company headquartered in Texas with a 25 percent ownership share of the Dakota Access.

While Trump’s share in the $3.8 billion Dakota Access project is minuscule (about 0.02 percent), the president-elect’s close ties to the pipeline’s parent company and other beneficiaries of the project don’t stop there.

The Trump campaign also received hundreds of thousands of dollars from Energy Transfer Partners Chief Executive Officer Kelcy Warren. In June, Warren donated $3,000 to Trump’s presidential campaign – over the $2,700 limit for individual campaign contributions to a candidate. Warren also gave $100,000 to the Trump Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee between Trump’s campaign and the Republican Party.

Trump is also reportedly considering Harold Hamm, founder of oil and gas company Continental Resources, for a position in his Cabinet as secretary of energy. Hamm has told investors in the past that he would use the Dakota Access pipeline to ship his company’s oil. Trump is also reportedly considering former Texas Governor Rick Perry for the energy secretary post as well, and Perry sits on the corporate board for Energy Transfer Partner.

But Trump’s ties to fossil fuels and infrastructure projects like the Dakota Access Pipeline don’t stop at his financial investments. They run deep through the team advising him on energy policy, including top adviser and oil billionaire Harold Hamm.

Hamm is Trump’s energy adviser, campaign surrogate, and the CEO of the largest fracking company in the country, Continental Resources. He’s made billions of dollars drilling and fracking for oil in North Dakota, and it would be Continental’s oil that would flow through the Dakota Access Pipeline if completed.

Hamm recently announced to investors that oil fracked from his North Dakota holdings would be transported by the pipeline, and he anticipates huge profits for himself when the project is completed.
