    Scott Pruitt just resigned from the EPA

    https://tinyurl.com/yawetj65

    "I have accepted the resignation of Scott Pruitt as the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency," Trump tweeted. "Within the Agency Scott has done an outstanding job, and I will always be thankful to him for this."

    Too bad. He was too good at the job to last against the greenie apparatchiks. I’ll bet Trump finds his equal at fighting them to replace him.

    If half of what I've heard about him was true he should have been fired a while ago not given a chance to resign with accolades.

    Had this scum bag been a liberal and spent half the money Pruitt did in tending to his personal comfort you would be raving over the audacity of his actions---but now you turn a blind eye and morn his departure.

    It does in this case because the scams Pruitt was cancelling outweighed the graft and overreach he was doing by hundreds of millions and billions of dollars. But life goes on and the next guy up will keep up the job.

    Unhappy

    I see. So it is perfectly acceptable to you to increase the population of snakes, leaches and assorted other vermin in the swamp, as long as they spend a portion of their time not raping the American people to do your bidding.

    Is that the "new" American conservative morality? Brings back thoughts of "Judge" Roy Moore

    One more reason not to stand in that corner.

    He could send all of his aides to buy hotels mattresses he wants as long as he nixed the coming Solendra scams. That’s a bargain ar million$ of times the price.

    As Bill Belichick said in the post-game interview after a humiliating opening day loss several years ago, “On to Cleveland.”
    They won the Super Bowl that year.

    That was 3 poachers that they knew of. They said some more could have been dragged off into the thick bush and they were not going in here to look. Poetic Justice.

    Too bad the woman who stalked and killed the rare Black Giraffe and proudly posted a photo of her triumph was not made dinner of a pride. That was disgusting.
