    This feels like political theater.
    Instead Big Oil should be prosecuted for profiting off the destruction of our environment. For years they knew what they were doing.

      You uhh… realize the DOJ can bring more than one case against a defendant at a time?

    This is the type of shit, if done through the last four years, that would make 2024 a very easy election for Biden.

    I hope it’s enough that they’re doing it now. And I really really hope it doesn’t stop after the election

    Oh boy. Members of the Senate wrote a letter. They must finally care for the interests of the common man. That’s a relief. I was afraid things were going to get worse before they got better.
