The hits just keep coming with this fool, now he is just rubbing our collective faces in it.

"Hupp is a top aide who has worked closely with Pruitt since his Oklahoma days."

This duo of grift has some history together.

The New Yorker recently had a lengthy profile of Pruitt, but I couldn’t bear to read it then…

Hey Pruitt ! I fart in your general direction !

Has this or similar been done by others? Seems like a sentence about that belongs in this article.

When Trump promised to “Drain the Swamp” he failed to clarify that he wanted to drain the good and decent folks, but instead left those who corruptly make a luxury spa out of what remains.

In man non-authoritarian countries, Pruitt’s official counterparts will be barred from accepting such gifts.

He should just give them the pelt of some newly-extinct species instead.

Worse, he then used one of these $130 signature-pens to write another signature, which he then had emblazoned on a ten thousand dollar custom Sharpie.

This man is a tragic comedy. I laugh and I cry.

“EPA spokesman John Wilcox told the Post that the pens were purchased to serve as ‘gifts’ to Pruitt’s ‘foreign counterparts and dignitaries upon his meeting with them’…”

“…‘and for clubbing baby seals to death during the administrator’s upcoming visit to Canada’.”

I should not be surprised if there were previous versions of these pens or something like them to be given out as gifts. But without the signature, so that they wouldn’t have to be thrown out (or sold to “collectors”) when the name of the administrator changed.

The Environmental Protection Agency spent $1,560 on a dozen custom-made fountain pens adorned with the EPA seal and the signature of Administrator Scott Pruitt, the Washington Post reported Friday.

Gee, how much for a toilet bowl with his name stenciled on the bottom?
