Was New York's attorney general bought by an environmentalist billionaire? [yes]

What did it cost the California-based hedge fund mogul (Tom Steyer) to make New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman a pawn in his plan to vilify ExxonMobil and ramp up global warming hysteria? Apparently, it was the prospect of campaign contributions.

Public records indicate the AG launched a climate change investigation targeting ExxonMobil while he was urging Steyer to help fund his planned 2018 campaign for governor.

Reading the article, an equally valid headline would be "New York AG blackmails Exxon."

As a New Yorker I am appalled to see our AG having to reach out to a Californian for graft. We damned near invented graft, dammit. This is humiliating.

Another interesting fact is that this AG ( a Hitlerly surrogate) brought up this suit miraculously after ExxonMobil decided to discontinue paying tribute money to the Clinton Foundation.

Dots are easy to connect.
