“… communications firms working for #EnergyTransfer and the National Sheriffs’ Association worked together to write newsletters, plant pro-pipeline articles in the media, and circulate “wanted”-style posters of particular protesters … And the heads of both the National Sheriffs’ Association and #TigerSwan engaged in discussions on strategy to counter the anti-pipeline movement, with #propaganda becoming a priority for both the police and private security.”

2016 via #DemocracyNow: #TigerSwan Security, Linked to #Blackwater, Now Coordinates Intel for #DakotaAccess

"We speak with Intercept co-founder Jeremy Scahill, who has spent years reporting on private security contractors such as the private security firm TigerSwan, which has links to the now-defunct mercenary firm Blackwater and is in charge of coordinating intelligence for the Dakota Access pipeline company. He discusses the company’s track record as more than 100 #NativeAmericans and allies fighting the $3.8 billion Dakota Access pipeline have been injured by police in North Dakota. Many were attacked with rubber bullets, tear gas, mace canisters and water cannons in freezing temperatures. The attack began after the water protectors attempted to clear access to a public bridge, which has been blocked by authorities using military equipment chained to concrete barriers."
