Nothing like a cabinet secretary collecting frequent flyer miles.
I wonder how he used them and for what?

Is any agency within our Federal government actually working anymore? The sheer volume of muck created by each and every Cabinet Secretary is incomprehensible.

He uses his frequent flyer miles for trips back home to OK. He goes back there quite a bit so he needs a lot of frequent flyer miles.

Maybe it’s like myopia and intelligence, where the two traits are genetically related. Or maybe this is just a pack of looters. It’s a mystery.

The Washington Post is reporting that Pruitt had four different official EPA e-mail addresses (including sooner7@epa.gov),and that not all of them were searched in response to FOIA requests (because the searchers didn’t know they existed).

Dual Mission is a true story that at times reads as a novel. It is the account of one ordinary person who vanishes into the “uncharted waters” of long term investigations at an agency where such work is an unknown. His personal mission to take down the New York Mafia, the rogue pitcher, Denny McLain and other global investigations become his mission. A mission with a dual purpose.

“Twisting slowly in the wind…” I don’t think he’s going to make it to the AG’s office, except possibly as the target of an investigation.

Yet the assholes over on the GOP side of House Intelligence are still demanding that DOJ re-re-re-review the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails at State.

And both Pence and Pruitt in their respective States used private email services in State Office in order to flout FOIA laws.

Just imagining the tomes that will be written about this administration covering diverse subjects from the obvious histories of corruption and mismanagement, to such topics as bad leadership, bad military decisions, insane economics, the perils of ignoring science, the philosophies behind Christian fundamentalism, Autocracy, White Supremacism, and of course marketing. WOW

The frequent flyer miles, isn’t that just stealing? Why should a government employee get to take flyer miles for himself for mileage accrued while, ostensibly, (laughably) on Govt business?

Screw waiting for trump, just fire the dickwad for theft, Legislators. He’s entirely an at will “worker” so get rid of him.

Yeah yeah, I know, just sayin!
