Many have commented on what is DAPL really all about? RFK jr cogently explains the debacle, the legal issue is the Corporatocracy (Trump owns $2M in shares in the pipeline) has cooked the law with the help of the Army Corps of Engineers and the North Dakota State government by not doing an Environmental Impact Statement that would show that DAPL would create 30 jobs and oil would be shipped to China. (Kennedy has a condition called spasmodic dysphonia, a specific form of an involuntary movement disorder called dystonia that affects only the voice box.) So this is live corruption.
