Employees at the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) destroyed records they knew were being audited, a new memo posted to a government database reveals...(snip)

...The IG’s memo points out that the audit began more than a year ago, and it was well-known that the records in question were “squarely in the realm of information subject to disclosure.” … (snip)

...Similar situations during the Obama years incensed conservatives.

“From secret, unidentifiable email addresses to destroyed records to far-left pressure groups funded by billionaire progressives, the EPA has something to hide,” read a 2015 headline on The Blaze, the website started by Glenn Beck. “And they’ll try to take down anyone who dares demand transparency.”

The year before, the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a Washington, DC think tank with a history of climate denial, sued the EPA...

the IG inspection started about the same time Wheeler was confirmed from acting to sitting Administrator. The destroyed documents were out of the financial office, under Holly Greaves.

Not have it, anymore.

0bama’s finger prints are all over this. Valjar’s too.

The M’fu@ker weaponized every federal department and agency.

To include the IRS, DOJ and FBI. And the NSA CIA.

Like I said the day after President Donald Trump was elected on FR: give all federal employees (sans military), an exit interview. If they voted for 0bama twice, then fire them.

This isn’t a big deal. Laws are only for the chumps, not them.

And there will be NO REPERCUSSIONS against the bureaucratic DEEP STATERS who pulled this off. The permanent civil service managers will, in fact, probably promote them.

Prosecute them. Until people go to jail or at the very least need to hire a lawyer and fight for their freedom this will continue. What good are laws if people can just choose to ignore them?

Not surprised in the least to hear this. Obama corrupted everything.

The only question is just what were they up to?

...probably breaking the law, funding radicals, funneling money to Democrats (yes, redundant!), targeting conservatives, and on and on and on.....

Of course the worst part is nothing will happen.

I hate to think this, but doesn’t Mueller prosecute to put the accused into bankruptcy?
