Can We Afford Scott Pruitt?
A government watchdog agency concluded that the Environmental Protection Agency[/url] violated federal law in spending more than $43,000 to install a private phone booth in EPA Administrator [url=]Scott Pruitt’s office, according to a report obtained by ABC News.
According to the Government Accountability Office, the EPA did not comply with the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act by spending more than $5,000 on the phone booth without notifying Congress.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

If you watched any of Pruitt’s “testimony”, he blamed staff, the system, advisors, everybody but himself for his overspending, personal travel, deregulation, and anti-environmental programs. He deflected every criticism and accepted NO responsibility for his actions.

Trump and his cohorts will never attain peace and joy, but only wallow in their self imposed suffering.

Yes, indeed. My mantra has become, If I'm not doing well today, it is because I didn't work hard enough, was not kind enough, or honest enough yesterday.
