goal is to get these two parties out and get actual representation that looks and feels like we do

one side may be worse but the less evil side is still working with the more evil side just like how the DNC went

might as well be all of them but specifically Biden and Walz are named in the articles and if the democrat national convention did not spell out the democrats’ true goals/alliances/checkwriters enough to wake the citizens up then we are truly doomed

Resistance to the Line 3 pipeline expansion is led by Indigenous women and two-spirit people.[35] Ojibwe-led groups including Giniw Collective, Camp Migizi, Red Lake Treaty Camp, RISE Coalition, and Honor the Earth among others have been at the center of resistance.[36] Demonstrators and protesters organizing in opposition to the pipeline refer to themselves as “water protectors”[37] and follow a campaign of non-violent civil disobedience that includes direct actions.[38] Organizers aim to convince the Biden administration to revoke or suspend the pipeline project’s federal clean water permit.[23] Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has not taken a firm stance on the pipeline expansion, which received federal approval under the Trump administration.[18][23]

Climate change

Much of the resistance to the Line 3 project comes from concerns over climate change. Climate justice groups such as the North Star Chapter of the Sierra Club,[46] MN350,[47] and Honor the Earth[48] have campaigns to “Stop Line 3.”[49] The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which was conducted by the Minnesota Department of Commerce, explains how the new Line 3 pipeline would contribute to deforestation, increase risk of pollution to Minnesota’s pristine water ecosystems and wild rice beds, and generate the greenhouse gasses that contribute to climate change.[16] In fact, a study authored by over a dozen climate justice organizations found that the greenhouse gas emissions from constructing the new Line 3 pipeline would be equivalent to building 50 new coal-fired power plants.[50] The EIS estimated that the social cost of carbon from those emissions would total more than $120 billion over 30 years.[51] The MN Department of Commerce under Governor Mark Dayton formally denounced the proposed Line 3 project on environmental grounds.[52]

In light of the serious risks and effects on the natural and socioeconomic environments of the existing Line 3 and the limited benefit that the existing Line 3 provides to Minnesota refineries, it is reasonable to conclude that Minnesota would be better off if Enbridge proposed to cease operations of the existing Line 3, without any new pipeline being built.

Tim Walz’s administrative U turn

Although the appeal was supported twice by Governor Tim Walz’s administration,[53][54] they subsequently withdrew support on 12 November 2020. Four days later 12 out of 17 of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s Environmental Justice Advisory Group resigned.[55]

The decision to approve the permit sends a clear message that the Walz Administration and the MPCA hold no regard for the well-being of Minnesotans or our relatives around the world, who depend on us to dramatically, rapidly, and justly transition our economies away from fossil fuels. This is the final straw after increasing disappointment in the MPCA’s failure to build on the hard work of dedicated EJAG members over the years. The transition to a new commissioner has set back the EJAG’s work, and the EJAG has since been excluded from important decisions that affect how the group is managed. EJAG members were not consulted on the hiring of an outside facilitator, nor on the divvying of group members into work groups. EJAG members have also experienced dismissal, being discouraged from sharing honest thoughts and opinions. This is not how an advisory group should be engaged to appropriately respect the wisdom being sought.

In February 2021, U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar called on President Joe Biden to stop the construction of the pipeline: “The decision that U.S. entities make on Line 3 is a decision made for the entire world, and for all coming generations of humanity. I urge you to make the one decision supported by the scientific consensus on climate change: Stop Line 3.” A press release cited how the pipeline would “add five times as much greenhouse gas annually as Minnesota transportation produced in total in 2016.”[57]

If you do not want to support then stop consuming which can not do because everything needed or wanted is all controlled/produced by the same owner class and switching companies means switching between different companies all owned by the same owner class just like news and newspapers

Same scam that is done on elections to give the illusion of choice but the puppet master never changes face just the puppets

No other companies to switch to for baby formula, diapers, bottled or otherwise water, foods by any brand all same owner at the beginning of the chains, all media is all owned at the very top by the same owner class, movies including super hero ones all owned by that same entity, vehicles that move us and products around all owned by the same people even if the countries are different and the names changed at the very very top are the same owner class

Got us plain and simple

Remember when Trump teamed up with a Democratic governor to strongarm protestors who were defending the environment and the public against big oil pipelines

Democrats and Republicans want the same for their check writers and we as a country need to rid ourselves of the cancerous growth of the two parties

Fuck Obamacare and the phones while at it

Obama is the very definition of an uncle tom so much so he had a vice president that believes schools should be segregated who later became president

Should had real representation that included real healthcare coverage

Guess people can still dream for now

too busy reporting on it and saying we need to do something

sounds like the United States

nothing new to report this is just same reposted news

sometimes the labels change but the narrative has always been the same here

am more scared of the people afraid of chicks with dicks

blaming your fellow citizens will only get a repeat every four years

elites want us blaming each other and not them
