Donald Trump Invested in Companies Behind Dakota Access Pipeline
----------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Greenpeace has revealed that Donald Trump has multiple
financial ties to the $3.8 billion Dakota Access pipeline, which has
faced months of resistance from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North
Dakota and members of hundreds of other tribes from across the U.S.,
Canada and Latin America. One of Trump's financial disclosure forms
shows he has between $500,000 and $1 million invested in Energy Transfer
Partners, the main company behind the Dakota Access pipeline. Trump also
has $50,000 to $100,000 invested in Phillips 66, which is slated to own
25 percent of the pipeline, if it is completed.
