It really is amazing what a cheap and greedy bastid he turned out to be.

If people arenā€™t scamming a little, theyā€™ll scam a lot. Whatever damage the EPA does will happen regardless of which clown they put in charge, since theyā€™re just following lobbyist orders. I kinda like having this penny ante schemer in charge, since the alternative could be a big time schemer who thinks a little larger than cheap rent and chicken franchises for his wife.

The funniest thing about Pruitt is that heā€™s a true believer when it comes to destroying the environment. The lobbyists donā€™t have to bribe him since he honestly thinks theyā€™re doing Godā€™s work and that raping the environment is what weā€™re here for. If he was smart, heā€™d at least pretend to have ethics; if only to set a higher price tag on buying him off.

He had gilded cards printed with ā€œGet Out of Jail Freeā€ on one side and smiling mug with ā€œNow You Owe Me Biglyā€ on the other.

Probably not the bestest analogy, but I just canā€™t help thinking of Pesciā€™s character in Goodfellas, thinking heā€™s all high and mighty and Mr. Bigballa Playaman, struttinā€™ around town with his nose in the air and his head up his ass, all proud and cocksure and arrogant when he thinks heā€™s going to his meeting to become a ā€œmade manā€ā€¦steps through the door of the house the ceremony is supposed to take place at and BLAM! bullet through the back of his dome from a guy hiding behind the the door. Fucking clowny-ass fool.

Pruitt is, apparently, insufficiently moist.

ā€œEPA Administrator Scott Pruitt ā€œasked members of his 24/7 security detail to run errands for him on occasion, including picking up his dry cleaning and taking him in search of a favorite moisturizing lotion,ā€ the Washington Post reports.ā€

And what should they do, smarty-pants?

Easy to denigrate. Harder to participate.

Did Occam take into account that this is Icanhā€™s man? Iā€™m sure Icanh is making money off of Pruittā€™s destruction of the EPA. As for Trump ā€œif Carlā€™s happy then Iā€™m happy.ā€

We may just do that. Unfortunately Trumpā€™s AG will just take a page from Georgy Porgies playbook and refuse to enforce any Subpoenas.

The moisturizer hunt was very important for national security. It was just as important for national security as steel, aluminum and the silicone for Iwanka. According to Rudy Giuliani in Israel, President Trump needed tic-tacs and the worldā€™s best moisturizer when went he on his hands and knees and begged Putin.

You can never have enough Goodfella references when describing the tRump crime syndicate.

Right to the point, irasdad. ā€œFree marketā€ is only a selling point for the marks who take republicans at their word while ignoring their actual behavior.

They are the party out of power. So they do what they can while having their hands tied behind their back. And if you think announcing impeachment is a good idea youā€™re stupider than you realize.
A bill of impeachment only bring charges against the sitting president and a high number of repubs need to vote for it, But what needs to happen is to have the senate vote by 2/3 to convict. Idiot, idiot, youā€™re the idiot.

This has to be repeated every time some numb nuts starts screaming into cyberspace about the Demsā€™ lack of spine. A 2/3 vote to convict by the senate has never happened. Whatever number of Rs in the House that are needed to simply bring the bill forward could be another obstacle. So the shouting simply indicates there are a lot of stupids.

My first government job was in 1974, when I left the building, I would be asked if I had a government pen in my handbag. If I did, I had to return it. The Golden Fleece award needs to be brought back and given to Pruitt. Stealing taxpayers money seems to be nothing to Pruitt. God is not going to forgive him for this.
