South Dakota is NOT for Sale!

South Dakota State Rep. Tina Mulally and rancher Jim Eschenbaum join The New American senior editor Rebecca Terrell for a celebratory interview following the November 5 victory for private landowners in the Mount Rushmore State.
There was a measure on the South Dakota ballot that masked a dangerous land-grab planned by our federal government in partnership with heavily subsidized private corporations, foreign investors and faceless United Nations bureaucrats.
Referred Law 21, if passed, would have upheld Senate Bill 201 (SB 201), approved by the state legislature earlier this year. Deceptively titled the “Landowner Bill of Rights,” it would have usurped local authority to dictate setback ordinances for dangerous pipelines, opening the door for eminent domain abuse by the same oligarchs who backdoored the bill.
South Dakotans joined forces in a grassroots effort led by Eschenbaum and Mulally: The South Dakota Private Property and Local Control Alliance. Their website, SDNotForSale.com, tells the saga. This group gathered nearly double the requisite number of signatures in 90 days to make sure SB 201 would be decided upon by the voters of South Dakota.
Before SB 201 passed, South Dakota stood as a bulwark by rejecting a proposal from Summit Carbon Solutions (SCS), a company backed in part by Chinese and South Korean investors. SCS plans to snake more than 2,000 miles of CO2 pipeline across five Corn Belt states, gobbling up thousands of square miles of prime farmland. They claim this will help save the planet by capturing CO2 from dozens of ethanol plants and funneling it to North Dakota for underground sequestration. Never mind that carbon capture is already proven multiple times over to be a boondoggle and is demonstrably net carbon additive. But South Dakota has clogged the SCS pipe. This is a matter of great importance to all private property owners and anyone interested in the food security of our nation. The U.S. Department of Energy has already announced its plans to subsidize 96,000 miles of this pipeline throughout the country. There is no state that will not be adversely impacted if these dangerous plans are not thwarted. The John Birch Society is producing a new documentary called UNearthing the CO2 Pipeline, part of our new “Stand Your Ground” series. The dramatic story is still unfolding as we work toward our release date, expected to be early next year. UNearthing the CO2 Pipelines will unmask the Deep State puppeteers perpetrating these crimes and equips you to cut their cords. Stay tuned!
