Didn’t even mention climate change. Unbelievable. https://t.co/Z6Rk0QEFuG — PolitiTweet.org

Wall Street — indeed all corporate America — is catastrophically failing on climate w/r/t audit of and accountability for corporate anti-climate lobbying and electioneering, direct and via trade groups. It’s the dirty secret no one wants to look at. https://t.co/4vUMyUCyCU — PolitiTweet.org

Bye, @TomTolesToons. Thanks for being there on climate early on. Catch you in your next phase. https://t.co/51vz1sb0Xu — PolitiTweet.org

I hope everyone has a very happy Halloween! Stay safe and wear a mask. — PolitiTweet.org

While this article adds up disclosed donations, that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Which explains dark money: both desperately want to pretend this is not a colossal quid pro quo scam, by hiding identities. But we will dig it out. That’s a promise. — PolitiTweet.org

The relationship is mutually umbilical. The industry has made the Party its political arm, which in turn props up the failing filthy industry. Soon enough they all fall down, but they may have destroyed the Earth’s climate and oceans along the way. https://t.co/ij3BqVWoIZ — PolitiTweet.org

.@BillMcKibben is exactly right. The most important issues we face connect to our courts. That’s why Republicans are so desperate to pack them with judges who will rule in their favor – every time. https://t.co/VFcUzWs04G — PolitiTweet.org

4. Virtually no major U.S. corporation makes any individual effort on climate in Congress. ADD IT UP: Corporate America is against climate action in Congress. It’s not even close. They just don’t tell you. — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

3. Regular corporate trade associations like American Beverage Association (hello Coke and Pepsi) and TechNet (hello Apple Google Microsoft Facebook) do nothing on climate in Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

2. Big corporate trade associations like @USChamber and NAM are actually the “worst climate obstructors”, while supported broadly by corporate America. https://t.co/oizolvrRjU — PolitiTweet.org

I have often spoken about why this is so important, but I will say it again: 1. Fossil fuel maintains its formidable apparatus of denial and obstruction vehemently hostile to action in Congress, never mind what CEOs may say. — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

Kudos to all these investors for urging companies to support climate action and deal with anti-climate trade associations. https://t.co/VyzjoxlgPh — PolitiTweet.org

A good day in court for @AGNeronha and @AGKilmartin. — PolitiTweet.org

Ford and GM still support ‘worst climate obstructor’ @USChamber (aka #ChamberofCarbon), which is slow-walking their efforts at reform. Make the Chamber disclose its fossil-fuel funding. Pick up the pace. Cut the crap. — PolitiTweet.org

Wait a minute. If these three judges are just calling balls and strikes, how is it so “consequential”? Now, if they’re in the tank to big Republican donors, that’s “consequential”... #PaidForCourt https://t.co/GI2crqQrxe — PolitiTweet.org

You can tell there’s bias because when you search “climate change” it doesn’t say “Chinese hoax.” Outrageous!! https://t.co/zTkdfbzqfC — PolitiTweet.org

My fight to expose the dark money smothering our political and judicial systems is not popular with the big special interests that have the most to lose. All the more reason to keep fighting. https://t.co/iHOXGibPy5 — PolitiTweet.org

Powerful letter in today’s @nytimes from Dr. John Pastore, son of the late Senator John Pastore of RI. https://t.co/zuEsvrI5P6 — PolitiTweet.org

Please God let it not be too late. Please God let it not be that a corrupt and filthy industry, and a Republican Party that toadied itself for their money, caused such wreckage. https://t.co/BUqY0NckKT — PolitiTweet.org

A top goal of the special interest campaign to capture our courts is to tear down the Affordable Care Act. The week after Election Day, that campaign’s newest Justice gets a shot to do just that. #CourtsMatter https://t.co/wpOCEOcamZ https://t.co/6O9II9PnMF — PolitiTweet.org

What’s this then? https://t.co/SytDTVsHly — PolitiTweet.org

Americans for Prosperity, Koch brothers’ front group, deeply involved in packing & politicizing the Court, using dark money schemes we do not yet fully understand, & leading Republicans to break every rule, now decries packing or politicizing the Court. https://t.co/4iLILPz0SX — PolitiTweet.org
