Trump Considers Current & Former ExxonMobil CEOs for Secretary of State
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Donald Trump has still not chosen his secretary of state, but new media
reports say he is now considering two additional candidates: Exxon Mobil
CEO Rex Tillerson and former Exxon Mobil CEO Lee Raymond. Exxon Mobil is
the United States's largest oil company. It's currently being
investigated by a handful of attorneys general, following revelations
that for decades the company covered up its own scientific findings
linking rising carbon emissions to dangerous climate change.
