This week, dave sent me a segment from the Russia Today online media network from their “big picture” news show, hosted by Thom Hartman. In this Segment, he interviews Kevin Kamps, a staff member at beyondnuclear.org who mission is to “educate and activate the public about the connections between Nuclear power and nuclear weapons and the need to abandon them both to safeguard our futures. Kevin specializes and reports on the Nuclear waste sector. Mr. Kamps mentioned that the Ogallala Aquifer, the largest groundwater source in the middle of the nation is under a triple threat: 1.) Due to heavy agriculture in the midwest (watering crops), the levels in the aquifer are steadily dropping, and not getting naturally replenished fast enough. (Only about one inch per year from rainfall) 2.) The newly resurrected XL Pipeline project will be built over a good portion of the aquifer. If it leaks, and it will, that will threaten the water supply. Watch The RT Episode here: https://youtu.be/wgLqLnL0RfQ Kevin Kamps at www.beyondnuclear.org Watch “Pumped Dry: A race to the bottom of the Ogallala Aquifer in Kansas” https://youtu.be/7CxA8PeDhIc Here are the states that rely on the Ogallala Aquifer: Here is the planned route of the XL pipeline: As you can see, the pipeline route runs through the states that rely on the Ogallala Aquifer the most.

Episode 67 "The Assault Of Mother Earth" Feb 11, 2017

Native Opinion Episode “EPISODE 67 THE ASSAULT OF MOTHER EARTH” How to Reach our show: hosts@nativeopinion.com Twitter: @nativeopinion Facebook: facebook.com/nativeopinionpodcast/ Webpage: nativeopinion.com Youtube: https://www.Youtube.com/c/NativeOpinion Leave us a voicemail: Call us! (860) 381-0207 This episode is sponsored in part by The Mohegan Trading Post… Handmade Native American jewelry and more…. see their website…www.mohegantradingpost.com Michael Kickingbear’s Native American Reservation Privatization Concept & Fear… So Anti-clean water people view this law as a states rights issue, something that Cheeto has also stated on numerous occasions during the presidential campaign. So how does this tie to Indian Country? Here is how I see this going down…. * The Trump administration’s true intentions are to make a case that reservations are (or should be) a states rights issue. * Pitch to tribes (By utilizing the so-called Native American Coalition) that government should get out of it’s way, by saying no more interference from the federal government over land in trust matters through the introduction of a house bill to pretend to revert some control of lands back to tribes, and encourage governance of lands to be compacts between tribes and states. * This action would be the start of privatization of Native American reservations. This would entice individual states to find ways to take what is now reservation land through new or pre-existing bad state laws that would push tribes off traditional homelands to gain access to these lands for oil drilling or fracking. * One example of this might be a form of imminent domain, citing a justification that “it’s in the best interest of all residents of the state” and offer ridiculously low amounts of money for the land to the tribe(s) * Those lands would/could then be sold by the state to energy companies, which of course fits in with the Trump Administration’s “America First” energy plan. Audience Homework… You Want to make your voice heard in Washington DC, but Trump shut down the White House comment line….soooo what do you do? Call his satellite offices! TITLE: “Trump Shut Down White House Comment Line, So This Tool Lets You Call One of His Businesses to Complain…” Sub-Title: By not divesting himself from his businesses, he's actually creating satellite White Houses all over the world," says the team behind WhiteHouseInc.org Author: by Deirdre Fulton, staff writer for website Common Dreams SOURCE: http://www.commondreams.org/news/2017/01/30/trump-shut-down-white-house-comment-line-so-tool-lets-you-call-one-his-businesses ARTICLES FEATURED IN THIS EPISODE: TITLE: The Water of the waters of the United States rule.

Exclaim magazine says “Shawnee has a unique charm” Violence Against Women’s Act… in the 2013 the reauthorization of the Violence against women’s act bill was introduced. Because of the provisions regarding Indians on tribal lands (Title 6) Jeff Sessions did not support the bill despite Bi partizan support which led it to being passed anyway.
