Geee Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Free Beacon: A small coalition of prominent climate change activists and political operatives huddled on Jan. 8 for a closed-door meeting at the Rockefeller Family Fund in Manhattan. Their agenda: taking down oil giant ExxonMobil through a coordinated campaign of legal action, divestment efforts, and political pressure. The meeting—which included top officials at GreenPeace, the Working Families Party, and the Rockefeller Family Fund—took place as climate change groups have pushed for a federal criminal probe of ExxonMobil’s environmental impact, similar to the 1990s racketeering case against Big Tobacco. A copy of the meeting’s agenda, obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, provides a rare glimpse inside the anti-ExxonMobil crusade, which has already spurred investigations into the oil giant by Democratic attorneys general in several states.

Valin Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 @Geee If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither on your side, pound the table. What we are seeing here is a combination of table pounding, and the inquisition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
