According to sources with knowledge of the situation, Chief of Staff John Kelly gave the greenlight to the efforts to remove the three officials after Pruitt’s resignation from the EPA earlier this month. Kelly, along with other senior aides to President Donald Trump, campaigned for months for Pruitt’s firing.

Yes, but also an idiot. EPA is far too important to be jeopardized by carelessness
I am still waiting for a bona fide Conservative to confirm that.
Pruitt spent 14 years in public office in Oklahoma with a clean record. And the Republican Attorneys General Association elected him Chairman - twice.
Then he moved to Washington D.C. and found himself the subject of 14 investigations in 14 months.
Maybe the fact that Attorney General Pruitt sued the EPA 14 times had something to do with it?
I know the West Wing RINOS, the MSM, and the Democrats claimed he was a careless idiot.

As a conservative from afar, I saw him do nothing I didn’t like...what did he do wrong?
He was also a political idiot, unfortunately.

How can one jeopardize what one must eliminate.
The infamous “sources”.
Discount until proof presented
It seems very easy to purge the conservatives, but nigh unto impossible to purge the actual criminals.
“According to sources with knowledge of the situation...”
That phrase anymore is as ubiquitous as “where’s the beef?” was back in the mid 80s.
Lazy and/or sinister “journalism”.
“According to sources with knowledge of the situation,...” The absolutely perfect introduction to fake news.
BTTT
Not having a good feeling about Kelly. He seems to be pretty entrenched in DC.
So when is Trump going to Purge Sessions?
DISMANTLE E.P.A.
“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.” - list of grievances; Declaration
The republic can survive without these UNaccountable executive branch bureaucracies.
He is a complete maroon & should have been fired much sooner. He truly thought government was his personal wallet.
Pruitt as corrupt.
As far as I’m concerned, he could’ve spent the EPA’s budget on hookers and blow if it would’ve meant less money enforcing the job-killing environmental regulations that liberals forced upon us.
He pissed off liberals so thoroughly that he gave conservatives the vapors and naturally, they buckled.
Shame too. He was one of Trump’s best picks.
That was my instinctive thought!
