Siding with the Dems and Soros
How revealing .
By the way its Dumb not Dump .
......Pruitt should follow the lead of that other appointee of Trumps. I believe the agency was Consumer Credit Protection or something like that. He showed up at a Congressional hearing and asked for Zero more money, or any money at all as I recall, then told them he did not have to answer ANY of their questions.
My preference would be that Trump and his 2 vote majority in the Senate close the EPA and return it’s functions to the states. At the same time, do the same with the FBI.....meaning return those functions to the states. I could go on and on but I’ll stop here.
Full speed ahead Scott Pruitt.
How many called for Gina McCarthy to resign when her agency spilled 3 million gallons of waste into the Colorado River? Or who did they fire or demand resignations from when an EPA employee was caught watching two to six hours of porn a day?
Excellent question and as far as I know it’s ZERO.
See post 7. Dems did the same if not worse regarding travel. And nary a peep from Dem reps or the media. But nice try, troll-boy - now you’ve slid to the point of siding with Dem agitprop.
Do you have a serious problem with Pruitt?
Nope. Just asking the question. If the shoe were on the other foot how would we treat that person.
Just checking to see if we have a double standard?
No, you are just trolling. If you were better informed, you would know that Pruitt’s travel expenses are not out of line with Gina McCarthy’s - and we never heard a peep from Dems about that. Instead, you roll in Dem agit-prop like a dog on a fresh turd.
Both sides have excesses that are problems. So I guess you’re in the camp of if they can spend our money like water, then we can too.
Whether that travel spending is justified is another story entirely. And not a point you raised initially, which means you are just clutching at straws now.
Indiscretions?
The EPA has a budget that must be spent. A Democratic-run EPA would spend this money on field agents levying fines against businesses for violations. Scott Pruitt spends this money attending football games and purchasing soundproof telephone booths, leaving less money for enforcement of economy-killing environmental regulations.
You may call these indiscretions but I call this money well-spent.
Scott Pruitt can't just cut the EPA's budget. That would be up to Congress and until that happens, he could blow the money on cocaine and prostitutes for all I care. He'd be doing America a favor.
I just want them to ge good stewards. Cocaine and prostitutes are not examples of being good stewards despite which party one belongs.
My whole point is we complain when the dems circle the wagons,yet conservatives do too over the same or similar issues. But thanks for the commentary.
So you think he should spend the EPA's budget on accomplishing the agency's mission of crushing businesses under punitive environmental regulations as the liberals running it before him did?
He or she doesn’t need to spend it on neither. They should only spend $$ on necessary laws, enforcement and research.
Your point is pointless. As usual.
Then why spend your energy on me? Apparently I’m not pointless.
