Environmental groups are now the BIG GUYS, rolling in money.
It’s bad enough that they peddle scares to get paid. Worse is the damage they do.
John Stossel explains how they block progress, in a video bearing the full title “The Green Industrial Complex: Power, Panic and Profits.”
A trial taking place in North Dakota will have a significant impact on free speech, and could severely limit the power of protests.
The trial involves something called SLAPP, which strands for Strategic Lawsuits against Public Participation. Energy Transfer, the Big Oil corporation behind the Dakota Access Pipeline, is seeking $300 million in damages from Greenpeace USA and Greenpeace International for their roles in organizing indigenous-led protests against the North Dakota oil pipeline.
Steven Donziger, an American attorney who has led legal fights against Big Oil, including Chevron, joins The Jimmy Dore Show to talk about the SLAPP case in North Dakota.
