SLAPP lawsuits are designed to drain activists' time & money, chilling dissent & protecting corporate and/or govt interests.

SLAPPs are how those in power try to shut down protest + dissent: through lawsuits meant to drain resources + scare communities into silence. This is an especially dangerous tactic at times like these when resistance is crucial.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?"

Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’”

During jury selection, potential jurors appeared to largely dislike the protests, and many had ties to the fossil fuel industry. In the end, more than half the jurors selected to hear the case had ties to the fossil fuel industry, and most had negative views of anti-pipeline protests or groups that oppose the use of fossil fuels. “Today’s verdict is not a reflection of wrongdoing on Greenpeace’s part, but rather the result of a long list of courtroom tactics and propaganda tricks that Energy Transfer used to deny Greenpeace its right to a fair trial,” said Kirk Herbertson, a New York attorney and the US director for advocacy and campaigns for EarthRights International. “We hope that the North Dakota supreme court will question why this case ever made it to trial in the first place.” Concerns over finding an unbiased jury plagued the case even before it began, given the rightward political leanings of Mandan, North Dakota, and the distaste for the protests among local residents. Mysterious rightwing mailers, made to look like a newspaper called “Central ND News”, that contained articles slanted against the pipeline protest or in favor of Energy Transfer were also sent to residents in recent months, which Greenpeace alleged could taint the jury pool.
