The insanity. Democrats would lock up people with whom they politically disagree, one more reason we can’t allow them back in.
Via Fox News:
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., upped the ante in his progressive agenda on Thursday when he signaled support for criminal charges against executives at oil companies.
“Fossil fuel executives should be criminally prosecuted for the destruction they have knowingly caused,” Sanders tweeted. His comments were the latest in progressive politicians’ long line of attacks on big corporations and their role in climate change.
It came on the same day that he released a sweeping $16 trillion plan to address climate change. Sanders painted his “Green New Deal” as a way to “end the greed of the fossil fuel industry.”
