"Every action" Pruitt makes, McCarthy said, will be eyed "very closely" by her "to ensure the Trump administration upholds science and the law."

The former EPA chief said she wants to make sure Pruitt "respects" the EPA's "dedicated public servants and builds on the agency's long track record of protecting public health and the environment."

McCarthy graduated from the University of Massachusetts Boston in 1976, as a Bachelor of Arts in Social Anthropology. She later attended Tufts University, and from there she gained the further degree of Master of Science in Environmental Health Engineering and Planning and Policy in 1981.

Gina has a couple of very fluffy degrees. She wouldn't know real science if it hit her in the face. She has the perfect degrees for an elitist progressive.

I will take a more sinister view. She means that embedded Obama loyalist in the intelligence apparatus will keep her informed...

I think they should be filing their UI applications. Too bad they aren’t eligible!

Hopefully after the first mowing of the staff, watching the EPA in action is going to be like watching grass grow in the desert.

“to ensure the Trump administration upholds science and the law.”

No problem Lady errr Sir? There is plenty of science that man made global warming is a hoax. Good luck from the sidelines castigating, harassing and destroying those that pull the sheet off and expose your phoney money grubbing religion.

Seems like a good admission on “her” part. Time to file for a PPO.

No closer than 5 miles.

She’s been fired. Pay no attention to this woman (?). She ought to be indicted for poisoning the rivers in CO under her watch.

Even when they are not in power, they believe they're in power.

Democrats = The party of government. Scary thought really.

Scary in that Al Gore was a stones throw from power. Hillary Clinton could have been our....eeek! I can't say it, I just can't say it.

Absolutely true. But worse than that she will be organizing them to throw lots of obstacles in the path of anyone who tries to follow Pruitt's direction. Also she will direct some to become "whistleblowers" which is very lucrative ($$), and she will collect part of the proceeds. She will get some foundation job title for a veneer.

Not if that smug SOB Koshkin is still heading the agency.

For the life of me, why do we still have an IRS?
