This Fight Is Our Fight, by Elizabeth Warren: on Foreign Policy


Rex Tillerson: OpEd: Famous for chummy ties to Russian leader Putin

Corporate insiders included Rex Tillerson, the CEO of ExxonMobil, who was the pick for secretary of state. He was famous for his chummy ties to Russian leader Vladimir Putin, as well as for his willingness to put Exxon's profits ahead of America's foreign policy interests. Under Tillerson's leadership, ExxonMobil funneled money to climate deniers and groups that fought environmental regulations. His consistently aggressive stand against the Environmental Protection Agency suggest that he believes that instead of putting a cop on the beat to protect the public from polluters, we should just trust Exxon.
