I have a theory that the powers that be are throwing Massey CEO and homicidal maniac Don Blankenship under the proverbial bus and not even looking for skid marks.
Here’s more evidence proving my point.
He’s leaving the U.S. Chamber of Commerce board. The Chamber is saying his rotation has merely ended. Maybe, maybe not. But they must be breathing a huge sigh of relief to have someone so devoid of reality no longer representing them.
