Despite a majority of the American people being against it, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to advance construction of the Dakota Access pipeline. But, what does Trump know about gaining the acceptance of a majority anyway?
There have been countless protesters regarding the pipeline before it was eventually halted, but now everyone’s worst fear has been realized.
With the pipeline moving forward, there is no doubt the protests will increase and one person who will be there fighting against its construction is UFC star Ronda Rousey.
Rousey hasn’t been too visible since her loss in December, but a photo surfaced on social media that shows her at the protests.

The pipeline threatens water resources and Native American sites.
Trump won’t give in to what the people want, but it’s great to see celebrities joining such a positive cause.
