New York says Secretary of State Rex Tillerson used an email alias to discuss climate change while he was Exxon Mobil Corp.’s chief executive: Wayne Tracker.

Tillerson sent messages from the account to discuss the risks posed by climate change, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said in a court filing about his office’s fraud investigation of the company. Tillerson, whose middle name is Wayne, used the Wayne Tracker account on the Exxon system from at least 2008 through 2015, Schneiderman said.

Schneiderman made the claim in a letter Monday to Justice Barry Ostrager in New York state court in Manhattan, accusing Exxon of failing to turn over all relevant documents required by a court order. The filing comes in a protracted legal dispute in which Exxon seeks to derail probes by New York and Massachusetts into whether the company misled investors for years about the possible impact of climate change on its business.

Tillerson used the account for "secure and expedited communications between select senior company officials and the former chairman for a broad range of business-related topics," after his primary account began receiving too many messages, Exxon spokesman Alan Jeffers said in an email.

1. Wow! Too many huge deceits and crimes to even

begin to keep in mind with all the hyenas this administration has appointed, but this one may ultimately be very damaging. A large majority of people want action to stop climate change, are even anxious and worried about it.

2. If this is true, why was he confirmed?

Rex Tillerson's appointment should have never been confirmed by the Senate.
This guy's more crooked than a 3-legged dog.

Besides that, he has deep ties to Putin and other Russian oligarchs.

3. So's the senate's Republican caucus and leadership.

Pubs elected to Congress by dark money are far more extreme than their constituents.

Republican voters remind me of car drivers who only look left at intersections, and who, when they regain dazed consciousness from the latest disaster, always assume they were hit from the left. Because that's what their handlers tell them.

But how long can they keep this up? Both the tea party and Rump were major rebellions, just incredibly stupid, holding-the-gun-backwards ones.
