Subpoena demands Exxon correspondence with Heritage, Cato, Mercatus, Hoover, and Reason, among others
The attorney general of the U.S. Virgin Islands is targeting dozens of conservative and libertarian organizations in a racketeering lawsuit against climate change skeptics that has been widely described as an effort to silence political opponents.
In a subpoena issued in March, the office of USVI attorney general Claude Walker demanded from Exxon Mobil copies of communications between the oil company and 90 different political and policy organizations and any other organizations engaged in research or advocacy concerning Climate Change or policies.

Tell them to take a hike, them and their unconstitutional subpoena. There is nothing wrong in what they are doing. The AG’s should be disbarred, except the American Bar is a joke and a disgrace.
Criminalize the opposition.
When are the boys at Exxon/Mobil gonna wise up?
Immediately STOP ALL BUSINESS IN EVERY STATE THAT IS A PARTY TO THIS, Including the Virgin Islands. It would be a conflict of interest and ethical dilemma if they continued to do business in these places.

This is exactly what needs to be done to these libtard punks. I also believe fast food companies should shut down their restaurants in cities that impose a $15 a hour minimum wage.
None of this makes sense. According to the article, the AGs met with miscellaneous environmental groups in January and issued a subpoena in March. The article mentions a ‘federal lawsuit’ but doesn’t say in which federal court it was filed If the lawsuit was filed in federal court, who are the named defendants, and any such named defendants’ attorneys would have filed a motion to dismiss before any discovery, including subpoenas, took place.
Climate Change is a theory. WTF?
Wow....they are going to get this too. Next they will come for us for just telling the truth.
Perhaps president Trump will get the chance to pursue RICO charges against political and policy organizations and any other organizations engaged in research or advocacy concerning the Climate Change hoax”.
Exxon ought to buy up all the distribution terminals in the VI, and then cut off their supplies of fuel.
Weather Channel founder calls Bill Nye a pretend scientist in a bow tie I have always been amazed that anyone would pay attention to Bill Nye, a pretend scientist in a bow tie, Coleman said Friday, according to ClimateDepot.com. As a man who has studied the science of meteorology for over 60 years and received the AMS (American Meteorological Societys) Meteorologist of the Year award, I am totally offended that Nye gets the press and media attention he does. And I am rooting for the Climate Hustle film to become a huge hit bigger than An Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore, Coleman said. nypost.com/2016/04/29/weather-channel-founder-calls-bill-nye-a-pretend-scientist-in-a-bow-tie/
Most fast-food restaurants are franchises, locally owned and operated. They only pay a percentage of revenue to the franchiser.
In many of those cases, it's a small businessman's ONLY business. Shutting it down would put him out of business, without any income.
Well, first there has to be a crime ....
Post Claude Walker’s home & address on google.earth along with directions.
Maybe he's a relative of Sharpton....
It’s time someone targets the left for abuse of power. Take it to them on so many fronts. Climate change hoax, energy independence stonewalling, trade imbalances that favor adversaries of the US, educational usurpation by centralized FedGov, military social experimenting, surrendering national sovereignty. There is one candidate running that has spoken about doing just that. And he wrongly gets accused of being a leftist by those that have done nothing but aid and abet the leftward rot. Trump 2016!
In a quick search, I can't find any evidence that ExxonMobil does any business in the US Virgin Islands. There are only a handful of retail outlets, and they all appear to be locally operated.
I could find only one distributor, which imports gasoline from Puerto Rico:
Gee, and how did we know he was an oppressed member of a “Protected Class”?
I would not cooperate with their orders. They are little fascists trying to control free speech and make oil illegal.
