Newsom on Suing Five Oil Giants: ‘They Deceived People,’ the Climate Is in ‘Deep Distress’ Because of Them

‘They’ve been lying to people’
By Grabien Staff

RUSH EXCERPT:

NEWSOM: “They should be ashamed of themselves. They’re one of the people we named in the lawsuit. They’ve been lying to people. They’ve been playing you and everybody watching us like fools. They had information that none of us were privy to. In the creation of this lawsuit, in the production of this lawsuit, I realized how ignorant I was on the issue. Back in the ’50s they had fundamental data and information that was not shared with person in people. They knowingly misled people. They deceived people. We didn’t take the actions we would have taken. And right now we’re dealing with the consequences of it. As we convene with the United Nations and climate week in New York City, we broke 10,000 records around the world. The climate is in deep distress. Ask the folks in California, every single one, Democrats and Republicans, would agree. They may not agree on global warming, climate science, but their own eyes, their lived experience.”
