This is so true. The fossil fuel lobby has bought almost all of our politicians, so very few have the willpower to hold them accountable --- because if they do, they may lose some of their biggest donors. That's where money in politics has gotten us. It's also why we still subsidize them. They're taking our tax money and giving it to one of the most profitable industries in the world. Yeah, that's how ridiculous things have become. And both parties are at fault, though not to the same degree. After all, it was the Trump administration who installed Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as our Secretary of State, and Republicans take far more in campaign contributions from the coal, oil, and natural gas lobbies than Democrats. But only those on the progressive left --- Bernie, AOC, Elizabeth Warren, Ilhan Omar, etc. --- have their hands clean of this entirely.
