EPA Employees ‘Coming to Work in Tears’ Because of Trump Win

If they were doing exactly what items were called for under specific legislation, they would have no concern and would not be upset.

However that is not what they have been doing at their agency. They have been free-balling rules, penalties and programs beyond and separate from what was specifically in legislation and they were doing it with a bureaucratic gusto. Now they know that they will be prohibited from continuing this abusive government bureaucracy and they are upset as all petty tyrants are when they loose power.

This arouses me. I should seek help :)

[JenB987]

Your services are no longer needed. You're fired.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Mmmmmmmmmmm!

[txrefugee]

They are scared spitless that Pres Trump will get some genuine scientists to begin checking their work and looking at how their Obama climate change billions were spent. A bunch of Hillary/Kerry State Dept. bureaucrats quit today, so there is some progress already in draining the swamp.

Yeah this is great now the bureaucrats know exactly how the farmers and ranchers feel when those EPA people come and tell them some puddle on their property is navicable water and they have to meet 4000 federal regulations or fight a decades long legal battle. Which could well cost them millions of dollars and their property.

[House Atreides]

Wait until these America hating snowflakes discover how little the private sector values their so-called “knowledge, skills & abilities” when they are involuntarily separated from their vastly overpaid federal positions.

Then the tears will REALLY flow.

The EPA did do a good job cleaning up the air. But the job is done so now go away.

States and localities did 70% of that between WW II and the day the EPA was founded in 1970. Sending our manufacturing offshore did the rest.

At the end of the day the EPA has accomplished damn little.

[henkster]

Now they know how all those coal miners and steel and factory workers felt.

Post of the month, hands down.

[shoff]

Wonder how many are like that one guy who never showed up at the EPA office and told everyone he was 007. He even collected bonuses for his time not at work. I guess if I had a no show job I’d cry too.

[Liberty Valance]

Trump’s victory has been tough for bureaucrats.

Imagine that. They've spent the last 8 years weaponizing
our government against the people so ... get a helmet or go home.

[Rebelbase]

I guess I don’t have to worry about the puddle in my driveway being declared a wildlife refuge anymore.

[Jim Robinson]

Drain the swamp and MAGA!!

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

LOL!

[Hoffer Rand]

Hey, EPA, I know somebody who facilitates a great “navigating organizational change” workshop. Failing that, I have another colleague who can assist you in updating your resume and acing that interview. Just so you know, we’ve got you covered. *snicker*

[central_va]

Whatever the reason the air is 100% better than in 1970.

[rpkgolf]

I would think that they are crying because they waited almost a year to tell parents in Michigan that their children were being poisoned from their drinking water.

[Jim Robinson]

Looking forward to the day they come in to work and find the doors padlocked.
