Greenpeace has been sued by Energy Transfer in a North Dakota court with a jury dominated by fossil-fuel workers and a pro-corporate judge.

Hawaii-based attorney NATALI SEGOVIA gives us detail on the particulars of this rigged indictment in a case meant to “target the environmental movement as a whole.”

Natali emphasizes that the land devastated by the contested pipeline is, by treaty rights, still Indigenous land.

Much-revered long-time campaigner CHARLIE CRAY explains that Greenpeace’s role in the Standing Rock demonstrations was to train people in non-violence, and that the corporate attack on the Greenpeace organizational structure has been misguided.

Steve Donziger then explains where the next legal battles will go amidst the long-standing campaign to weaponize the law against the human attempt to preserve our ability to live on this planet.

Charlie Cray explains that the courts refused to allow a live broadcast or official transcript of the court proceeds while the corporations used “pink slime journalism” to propagandize the local North Dakota population.

Natalie Segovia confirms that the willingness to ignore tribal sovereignty and fight against movement solidarity is at the core of the corporate attack, as she calls for courage among all of us.

Charlie & Steve remind us that a Dutch court will hear anti-SLAPP proceedings against the corporations trying to kill Greenpeace & its pro-ecological campaigning. 

To start our second hour, we then get an on-the-ground report from journalist/filmmaker ROGER RAPOPORT about Michigan’s insane attempt to re-start the Palisades nuclear reactor.

An expert on air travel, Roger also reports on the real horrifying & infuriating reasons for the recent deadly crash at Washington DC’s National Airport.

Performance Artist TOM ENGLISH gives us a great poem about try to humanize our nation’s billionaire CEOs.

We then move into the nightmare of lithium battery storage & the horrifying disaster of a major fire at Moss Landing California.

Nationally syndicated Flashpoint host DENNIS BERNSTEIN talks to us about the human damage being done by this terrible fire & its fallout.

MICHELLE A. gives us a heads-up on water based batteries called Aqueous Metal batteries.

Western Massachusetts activist & no nukes organizer ANNA GYORGY tells us of her great victory over an unwanted lithium battery center in her neighborhood.

Activist/film-mater JILL LONG makes the connection between Moss Landing & the horrors of Three Mile Island.

Thanks to MYLA RESON we touch on upcoming supreme court election in Wisconsin, which we will revisit NEXT WEEK!

We sign off with PAUL SHERMAN & the Budapest Memorandum that should have prevented to war in Ukraine.
