More than 100 South Dakota landowners are faced with eminent domain lawsuits as a major carbon capture company constructs a more than 2,000-mile pipeline spanning the upper midwestern plains. The pipeline is a project by Summit Carbon Solutions, with the goal of extracting CO2 emissions from midwestern ethanol plants and injecting the liquified gasses deep underground in North Dakota. A process known as carbon sequestration, the pipeline is an effort from the ethanol industry to capitalize on tax incentives offered by reducing corporations’ carbon footprint. Litigation over the pipeline’s encroachment on private property is now underway across nine counties in the state as rural residents object to the project on their land. Surveyors with Summit Carbon Solutions, however, are reportedly showing up on property while lawsuits remain pending. And the state’s Republican governor, Kristi Noem, is nowhere to be found.
Eminent Domain Is Imminent
On Tuesday, Jared Bossly, a farmer in the state’s northeastern Brown County who is opposed to the project crossing his property, reportedly found surveyors from the firm drilling a rig deep underground in the middle of his crop field. Bossly explained to Substack reporter Greg Price how the construction of the pipeline threatens the productivity of his 2,000-acre farm. “The route would force them to bulldoze many of the trees he has planted, jeopardizing the safety of his cows by removing the windbreaks used to protect them,” Price wrote. “He also said that the topsoil is only about a foot deep, which means moving it around will likely prevent crops from growing there again.”

The Pending Theft of Farms In South Dakota has at its core the same contempt present in the FBI making the official announcement that they are accountable to no law.
It takes a long while for a culture of contempt to seize a large agency or agencies. Contempt for us has overtaken the bosses of the FBI. Chris Wray’s open refusal to provide congress–meaning, us–the documents we paid him to analyze cannot be defended on grounds other than contempt for us and the rule of law. I think Wray is like other bosses of federal agencies, he knows he should feel powerful, but instead he feels weak. Like tyrants always do, they attempt to conquer their fear the way the conquer people, with lies and force. The DHS paid a grant that included the work of an admitted “violent Antifa” activist to create a document that pretends FOX News is a NAZI feeder. The DOJ is trying to steal the legal relief funds of January 6 defendants, the same sort of funds Kammi Harris raised for violent, Antifa terrorists. None of it is working.
But, it’s in South Dakota where The Party is about to step on a line they cannot be allowed to cross. The Party is displaying its contempt for private property, the food supply of America, law, decency, morality and God. With no real objection from Governor Kristi Noem or shiny shoe Republicans, The Party is trying lett a mobbed-up land-theft cartel masquerading as a company use Eminent Domain to steal family farms. What makes it worse–if it can be worse–is the excuse these mobsters have sold to get the Grand Old Pimps to help them: they intend to build pipelines to store carbon-dioxide underground.
