This is exactly what the FinancialMob is doing to lawyers who helped the homeowners during the Great Financial Crime Spree of 2008. If you speak out against any CorporateMob, beware.
Watching Marianne's update on Donziger's plight, and the fact that he may actually face jail time is outrageous! I encourage folks to bombard Biden/Harris with letters via the White House website. I intend to draft and send one tomorrow a.m. I hope many of you do too! We are now what ol' Ross Perot's wife predicted long ago: a banana republic-style republic that we once ridiculed other nation-states as being! I think of Pink's song that should be the peoples anthem "What About Us"! What about hope, what about trust?
UPDATE: I got my letter off to the White House this a.m. and got a response that it was received at 11:03 this a.m. So I think this is a meaningful way to spread the word albeit the White House staff is swamped with multiple issues to address but since Biden supports adapting to and mitigating climate change I hope he soon hears about the situation at hand. I encourage others to write to the WH as well!
My first job out of journalism school was writing a consumer column that appeared on the front page of the "St. Paul Dispatch" daily newspaper every evening, called "Action Line". It was inspired by the work Nader did--always admirable. My job was fighting on behalf of the people facing misguided bills, housing wrongdoing, etc. It was a rewarding job. I still often think of Nader's Raiders and wish Americans would get back to that kind of activism again.

Great. I hope he can intervene or one of his associates!
I'm writing the WH today. This deserves action NOW. Ty Marianne.
