These lawsuits are about punishing Exxon for selling a legal product, not about protecting Exxon's investors, as if Democratic attorneys general gave a damn about them.

NY State was simply extorting money by way of the courts in order to feed the insatiable need the Liberals have to hand out “things” to buy votes.

My guess is the believed EXXON would settle rather than fight. They were wrong and those other States bringing similar suits against EXXON will more than likely suffer the same results.

the oil giant had deceived its investors about how it accounted for the cost of future climate-change regulations.

How can a company reliably account for the cost of future climate-change regulations when the regulations may change radically in the out years?

Progressives (democrats) want state control of FedEx, Exxon, Home Depot, Apple, and other icons of industry, services, and finance. These shots are testing the mettle.

Exactly. More shameless rats perverting our laws to their ends. Alinsky was their messiah.

“Nothing in this opinion is intended to absolve ExxonMobil from responsibility for contributing to climate change”

Can’t you just go to a climate priest and confess your climate sins to receive absolution?

Oh, you probably need to buy carbon indulgences too, don’t you?

Exxon has gone woke. They thought that if they fed the crocodile, it would leave them alone. Suckers.
