Amazing, a whole article on this subject and not one mention of Steven Donziger, despite him going to actual prison because he won a court case against Exxon.

I think the word is corrupt, not friendly.

Yeah, there are a bunch of small-scale oil companies in places like Pennsylvania which started extraction early

How do you get as fat as those two cops and how do you keep a job as a cop when you're that fat? I can't even imagine letting myself go as bad as they have. They have to be close to 300 lbs each.
