By: Claire Bernish/ The Free Thought Project  Law enforcement showed up at LaDonna Tamakawastewin Allard's front door on Thursday, claiming the need to perform an "assessment" of the Camp of the Sacred Stones — the original Dakota Access Pipeline opposition camp erected in early April — but refused to offer a warrant or explanation for the sudden appearance.

Worse, as livestream video revealed, authorities came to Allard's private property at the behest of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe council's request — meaning the invasion of property without explanation marks a complete betrayal of trust between tribal officials and water protectors still determined to halt the pipeline.

Johnny Dangers, a livestreamer who has resided in the camps to document the ongoing battle against Big Oil, captured what he termed a "raid" on live video, with officials from the ATF, Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Standing Rock division of Fish and Wildlife, tribal police, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers surveying Allard's property while refusing to answer questions regarding legality of their visit.
