And so it begins...screw you trump!

 

[darkwing]

this was expected

Surprised this thread has had only one post so far.

Surprised this thread has had only one post so far.

We knew it was coming and I think just because its so sad, and after so much we're a little quiet on it.

i think darkwing summed it up best.

 

[yanipheonu]

Buckle up. This could get rough. Like, watershed moment rough.

A big part of me wants to say good - i don't know.

On a more humorous note i had the very brief thought of "Is Shia LaBeouf going to be the martyr (well, catalyst really - but martyr sounds more dramatic) to ignite revolt?"

 

[Snagret]

Not surprising, but certainly no less sickening for it. The Trump admin is run by greedy, destructive maniacs and half the voting population of this country loves it because it's so much more honest.

 

[PopeReal]

Any chance they say no?

 

[ReplacementPelican]

Any chance they say no?

I have a relative level of certainty that the general soldier was far more likely to vote for Trump than to not, even just based on demography. They probably agree with this.

What do you mean?

 

[jacob armitage]

What do you mean?

Oh, Shia getting arrested in New York for "assaulting" a Nazi. For a second i was like shit is this going to switch from protest to revolt, and then i laughed at myself.

Oh.

 

[jacob armitage]

Oh.

Yeah, it was a dumb thought i figured i'd share to hopefully give someone a giggle.

 

[PopeReal]

So is Trump going to make sure the inevitable protests are crushed to send a message to everyone else?

I have a bad feeling that this is going to get bloody.

It's going to be a bloodbath. All for the almighty dollar. All for big profits. In trump's world human lives don't really matter, do they?

 

[Generalpsyduck]

Id like to see them fucking try to make that shitty pipeline.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Ahh yes. The Army Corps. Now where have I seen the Army Corps rolling in to silence the need for good living conditions...

Of course it will. When have natives in this country not shed their own blood in defiance of white progress?

 

[Toxi]

It was only a matter of time after Trump won.

 

[Linkark07]

This will turn into a bloodshed most likely.

 

[Akuun]

The army is being asked to enforce a commercial construction?

The ARMY? What the fuck.

it's the Army Corp of Engineers , not the Army army

 

[uncredited male]

It has already been bloody. And it probably won't get any mainstream coverage unless people get killed.

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

I can see the news, Native Americans disappeared. President Trump to create a group to investigate.....

 

[Ashes]

This is the government that does not know what due diligence is.

 

[Lifeline]

If those vets that were coming in to protest go again, what's Trump going to say about them?

 

[Bit-Bit]

I don't see a scenario where this doesn't end badly.

 

[R10Neymarfan]

Any chance they say no?

He's their superior they can't refuse to anything really.

Military is already Authoritarian mind you and a third did vote for him

 

[darkwing]

paid for by Soros

 

[Trojita]

This is truly awful. My heart goes out to the Native community.

If those vets that were coming in to protest go again, what's Trump going to say about them?

Same stuff he said about McCain and Khan's family probably.

 

[hydragonwarrior]

Darkest timeline indeed.

 

[TimHortons]

He's getting American people back to work bigly time huge jobs important jobs

All that undocumented labor

 

[How About No]

Just more spit in their faces. But I still hope they mobilize against this again. I mean GOP voters love the military so I hope they at least fucking listen to the vets who helped fight for this country

I just wish people could look past the short-term.

Oh, okay.

Still fucked up that he's moving forward with this, though I don't think anyone is surprised.

 

[LegendofJoe]

He'll call General Wesley Clark Jr. a traitor to this country. Even though he has done more for the US than anyone in Trump's family ever has or likely ever will. He'll also say that he and his Dad are loyal to NATO over the US and accuse him of working with European countries to undermine him.

 

[Brian Griffin]

Yep. Some Native American protestors have said this is their last stand in a video I saw. People are going to die.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Compromised by radical islamic terrorist.

Your wish is going to come true.

No, you don't really what to see that

 

[Kinyou]

Doesn't Trump have investments connected to the pipeline? How in the world is this legal?

 

[Brian Griffin]

The president is not subject to conflict of interest laws. He's corrupt as shit and now he's in the only position where it doesn't matter who knows it.

 

[teruterubozu]

As well as a shit ton of other politicians. Don't fool yourself.

 

[Xe4]

Both parties are totally the same. Hillary would've told the Army Corps the same thing.

Spoiler

/s if it wasn't obvious

 

[Wulfric]

Can they refuse on safety/ethics grounds? At the very least they can drag their feet with the process.

I read the article as well, not sure if this means anything.

On Tuesday evening, the Standing Rock tribe said the Army could not circumvent a scheduled environmental impact study that was ordered in January.

"The Army Corps lacks statutory authority to simply stop the EIS," they said in a statement.

 

[Media]

Well, it looks like the police came in an evicted everyone and burned Standing Rock down.

I'm so fucking depressed right now.

I'm going to wait and see if this gets picked up by something that's not a random unsourced and unverified wordpress blog, though that's thoroughly depressing if true.
