The Left has found another way to falsely accuse conservatives of being like the Taliban. First, it was about pro-life beliefs. Yesterday, Rep. Jim Hines (D-CT) attached the label to Republicans wanting to restrict environmental, social, and governance criteria, or ESG, in corporate America.

“The party formerly of free markets has decided that they will use the power of government to pound on Disney, to pound on banks that … won’t invest in the carbon industry,” Hines said. “[Democrats are] standing up for free markets against a Taliban-like attack on the private sector.”
