4 Apr: TheLid: Media Campaign Against EPAs Scott Pruitt Orchestrated By Obama & Clinton Cronies
by J.E. Dyer
My contribution in this post is adding a bit about the source going in. As (Daily Caller’s Michael) Bastasch notes, the source of much of the negative narrative-building on Pruitt is the Environmental Integrity Project (EIP). The EIP is a nonprofit founded in 2002 by Eric Schaeffer, a disgruntled EPA official. Here is how EIP describes it...
EIP has a strong animus against coal, as you can learn from the website...
Regarding funding, prominent sources for EIP, as documented by a congressional report in 2014, are the Wallace Global Foundation and the Energy Foundation, which in turn gets much of its funding from the Sea Change Foundation set up by renewables billionaire Nat Simons, a major beneficiary of Obamas green-energy cronyism. (And yes, both foundation sources send money to and from the Tides Foundation and others in the standard list of progressive and radical-left money sumps.)...

any news search of “environmental integrity project” beginning January 2017 will confirm the above. WaPo were even doing joint investigations with them.
go to the EIP website to see the obsession with Pruitt.
Wikipedia: The Environmental Integrity Project (EIP) is a Washington, D.C.-based environmental nonprofit organization that advocates for more effective enforcement of environmental laws. The organization was founded in 2002 by former U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) attorneys, Eric V. Schaeffer and Michele Merkel.
DRAIN THE SWAMP, MR. PRUITT.
Pruitt is declared enemy #1 for the environmental whacko crowd. And they burn and bomb stuff regularly. It’s a religious mission for these fringe guys and they WILL attempt it if they get the opportunity. The threats by these nutjobs are deadly serious. Look at the pipeline sabotage, railroads, ect.
That’s how effective Pruitt is. Hundreds of billions are at stake, and perhaps more importantly, he is casting off the shackles our sworn enemies have installed over the past 50 years.
Russia and China are funding lots of the environmental causes. Like the anti-fraking movement. The useful idiots carrying out the plans are both crazy and violent.
