| 26. So All Those Thousands/Millions Of Dollars Donated Bring Nothing? |
|
That's as silly as Hillary saying that lobbyist money really doesn't influence her. Tell it to the hand.
Murray's used his money...including, if you'll look at that list, his own Political Action Committee that bought influence that has prevented Mine safety laws from being both enacted and enforced. His money bought him a special table in the "energy task force" that all but shut out any viable alternative energy development and protected his industry...and it's being used to shield him from being held accountable for the conditions that led to this tragedy.
His money and politics are there for you to see...and I'll bet if you dig into that PAC, you'll see a money laundering operation that furthers this ruse he's playing.
