It’s hard to imagine a more despicable demagogic pol than Eric Schneiderman, New York’s wild-eyed Attorney General and NRDC shill. But, Russian oil money?

Eric Schneiderman may be the nastiest, most under-handed politician in America. He promotes and does the dirty work of the NRDC gang. He harasses tiny communities with the nerve to favor natural gas development. He’s a relentlessly ambitious demagogue along the lines of the infamous Huey Long. His very appearance—wild-eyed in very respect—hints at what to expect. He routinely jumps the gun, rushes in to lead politically correct causes and changes his story line when things don’t pan out as he hoped. He refuses to honor Freedom of Information requests. He alternately postures, deceives and then hides. He’s a thoroughly bad guy. And, now it appears he’s been taking Russian oil money all the while he’s been attacking fracking in New York.
