Hoodwinked By a Fist Full of Dollars -- The Runaway Train of Non-Profits in Indian Country
Hoodwinked By a Fist Full of Dollars -- The Runaway Train of Non-Profits in Indian Country
A billionaire's fortune from the most polluting industries in the U.S. -- aluminum manufacturing and oil drilling -- now quietly funds non-profits in Indian country. This means big money in a few pockets for salaries, homes, and lavish expense accounts.By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, March 31, 2024
While searching for a non-profit's info, we stumbled across this foundation. It funds many in Indian country, and here's where its money comes from.
The money comes from the man who "commandeered the use of an entire element of earth -- aluminum -- through his control of the monopoly aluminum producer Alcoa," according to "The Rise and Fall of Andew Mellon."At one point, five Fortune 500 companies owed their lineage directly to Andrew Mellon: Alcoa, Gulf Oil, Mellon Bank, Carborundum, and Koppers. He controlled a network of ninety-nine banks. And Alcoa is cited as one of the top air polluters in the U.S.
Today, the Andrew T. Mellon Foundation shows $7.5 billion. It gives out grant funding for Arizona university projects, Native projects across the U.S. and many more. Most grants range from $500,000 to $90 million.

Lakota Youths Raising Voices for Palestine
'Our Liberation is Linked'
By International Indigenous Youth Council, Oglala Lakota Chapter
Censored News, March 29, 2024
In a world plagued by injustices and oppression, the youth of the Oglala Lakota Nation raise their voices in support for Palestine. As descendants of a people who have faced centuries of systemic violence and displacement, we intimately understand the pain and suffering inflicted by colonialism and genocide.
Just as our ancestors fought to preserve our way of life and sovereignty, we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people as they resist occupation and defend their right to self-determination. The parallels between our struggles are undeniable, rooted in a shared history of dispossession, displacement, and cultural erasure.
The ongoing atrocities committed against the Palestinian people, including the recent escalation of violence and displacement in Gaza, serve as a reminder of the urgent need for global solidarity and action. We refuse to remain silent in the face of oppression and injustice.
Together, we raise our voices to condemn the brutal acts of violence and state-sanctioned discrimination perpetrated by the Israeli government. We demand an end to the illegal occupation of Palestinian lands and the immediate cessation of all forms of violence against civilians.
As Oglala youth, we recognize that our liberation is intricately linked to the liberation of all oppressed peoples around the world. By standing in solidarity with Palestine, we reaffirm our commitment to justice, equality, and human rights for all.
Let us unite in our struggle against colonialism, imperialism, and genocide. Together, we can create a world where every individual and community can thrive in freedom and dignity.

Thacker Pass Protectors File First-Ever 'Biodiversity Necessity Defense' in Nevada Court
Thacker Pass Protectors File First-Ever 'Biodiversity Necessity Defense' in Nevada Court
While pursuing a 'Climate Necessity Defense,' and making allegations that mining company has violated their rights, their attorney said, 'They’re not criminals; they’re heroes.'
By Protect Thacker Pass, Censored News, March 26, 2024
WINNEMUCCA, Nevada — In a first for the American legal system, the lawyers for six people sued by Lithium Nevada Corporation for protesting the Thacker Pass mine are arguing a ‘biodiversity necessity defense.’
The necessity defense is a legal argument used to justify breaking the law when a greater harm is being prevented; for example, breaking a car window to save an infant locked inside on a stifling hot day, or breaking down a door to help someone screaming inside a locked home. In these cases, trespassing is justified to save a life.

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, March 24, 2024
BISMARCK, North Dakota -- The Morton County Sheriff's Department sent a letter to President-elect Donald Trump which accused Standing Rock water protectors of crimes that there was no evidence of -- crimes water protectors were never charged with. The letter urges Trump to stop the protest of the Dakota Access Pipeline.
After taking office, President Trump signed an executive order to expedite approval of the Dakota Access Pipeline on Jan. 24, 2017. The Oceti Sakowin Camp of Standing Rock water protectors camps was cleared by law enforcement on Feb. 23, 2017.
In the letter to President-elect Trump after the election, Morton County accused water protectors of crimes that there was no evidence of, and crimes that no water protectors were charged with. The letter is revealed in Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier's second deposition, in the current federal case, North Dakota v. USA.

In the typical "good ole boy" style, Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier claims he was honoring water protectors rights to free speech, and just trying to keep the peace, in his deposition in the current case, North Dakota v. United States of America.
Kirchmeier, however, also reveals that only a couple of his sheriff's deputies were trained in the use of less-than lethal weapons. He also reveals that among the first people that he called on for backup was Paul Laney, president of the North Dakota's National Sheriffs Association.
Kirchmeier also says they don't deal in Treaties at the Sheriffs Department.

Federal Audit Questions $80 Million in Navajo Nation's Virus Relief Expenditures
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, March 22, 2024
A federal audit review questions $80 million in expenditures of CARES Act Funds by the Navajo Nation government, according to a letter from the U.S. Inspector General in May. The audit review questions hardship claims, whether enterprises are separate from the tribe, monthly fuel charges, and the fraudulent cashing of duplicate checks.
An independent review for the U.S. Inspector General's Office states that documents are needed to verify whether tribal entities are separate legal and tax entities, and documentation is needed to show payroll, vendor receipts and hardship payments.

Updated
The U.S. Marshals secretive Special Operations Group, was not deployed to Standing Rock during the resistance to the Dakota Access Pipeline, but it headed up the police response at Wounded Knee, firing repeatedly on those who occupied it.
The State of North Dakota pressed the U.S. Marshals Service to reveal why its Special Operations Group was not deployed to Standing Rock. The questioning came during the current federal court case, North Dakota v. United States of America. The state is seeking $38 million from the U.S., accusing federal agencies of failing to clear the camps and failing in their response.

The current case in federal court, North Dakota v. U.S., omits the brutality of excessive force by law enforcement, critical injuries, and destruction of the sacred.

WASHINGTON -- Lakota leaders testified before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, describing the excessive force and brutality of law enforcement during attacks on water protectors defending the water from construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline at Standing Rock in North Dakota. The attacks resulted in critical injuries, the targeting of women, the destruction of cultural sites, and the violation of human rights, and international rights.
"Presently in the United States of America, our people have no civil rights," Cheyenne River Chairman Harold Frazier, Lakota, South Dakota, testified before the commission.
"In 1968, the U.S. passed the Indian Civil Rights Act, it only protects our people from tribal governments."

FBI Informants Reported Rumors, Third-hand Information, During Standing Rock Resistance, FBI Agent Testifies
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, March 17, 2024
BISMARCK, North Dakota -- The FBI informants at Standing Rock often provided third-hand information and rumors, and some were just reporting information from telephone calls, and e-mails, and were not at the camps.
The only FBI weapons investigation was the one resulting from the handgun brought to camp by the FBI's paid informant Heath Harmon, FBI testimony reveals in the current federal case.
"Some of the informants may have never entered the camp, but obtained their information by telephone or e-mail or third-hand," said FBI Special Agent Robert 'Bob' Perry. Perry was in executive management in the FBI's Minneapolis office and responsible for the Dakotas.

TUCSON -- A so-called 'green' energy project plans to plow through Tohono O'odham and San Carlos Apache sacred and historical places in the San Pedro Valley in Arizona.

The genocidal colonial terror of nuclear energy and weapons is not entertainment.
