They’ll probably protest. Besides, everything will be leaked anyway.

I would love for them to ask why and just be told “We’ve had enough of your dumphukery”

Scott Pruitt is Trump’s greatest pick. If he spent every last penny of the EPA’s budget on hookers, cocaine, and a fleet of coal-rollin’ F350 Super Duty Powerstrokes, I’d love him even more.

"If he spent every last penny of the EPA’s budget on hookers, cocaine, and a fleet of coal-rollin’ F350 Super Duty Powerstrokes" As long as he doesn't squander it.

I hope he runs for Governor or Senator after his tenure at the EPA.

I was in Minnesota a few weeks ago (family thing) and my (LIB) IDIOT BIL showed me pictures of his recent trip to the Grand Canyon.
I pointed out that it shows how beautiful erosion can be and that Ice Ages have made an beautiful impact on our planet.
His response: “Ice ages didn’t do this! It’s million of years old!”
Small wonder that when he and his Wife are passing through Montana we only meet for breakfast (not in our ‘too expensive town’) and we do not allow them our guest room. He just cannot appreciate any contrary view other than his MPR (Minnesota Public Radio) programmed point of view...
If he was a member of the press I would refuse to ever speak to him.

From the article:
Guards barred an AP reporter from passing through a security checkpoint inside the building. When the reporter asked to speak to an EPA public-affairs person, the security guards grabbed the reporter by the shoulders and shoved her forcibly out of the EPA building.
I'm surprised the AP didn't put an exclamation mark after that second sentence.
Gotta love Scott Pruitt.
Hope nobama's crying towel is soaking wet :)

Not hard enough to suit me.

Hopefully, if they keep making a fuss, an EPA spokesman will just remark that attendance at such functions by the media is restricted to “responsible and professional” news organizations.

The article does not say whether non-fake news organizations were invited, or if the event did not allow media to observe.

It’s one step closer to a boot in the ass though.
