UVA is very competitive. I don’t envy her once this story gets traction

What a dick. (for all the obvious reasons) but now his daughter has to live the rest of her life being tarred, fairly or not, as someone who couldn’t get into law school without her dad’s help. I’m not even being sarcastic. This guy can’t even parent without being corrupt.

Because Pruitt is the de facto darling of the Koch Bros, who indirectly (local/regional support) yet po$itively supported Tramp’s election with mega-million$. Tramp is their “useful idiot” to put their preferred agent in place and is not desirous of upsetting the Kochs. (This is a reflection of the power that real billionaires have over a faux-billionaire.)

What next? He got his dog a job as taster at Cargill Meat Solutions, his kitty the top spot on Youtube cat videos, and an Olympic sized swimming pool for his pet goldfish? He really can’t be this impotent, can he?? That dreaded time of new onset Viagra-resistance is upon us.

Because he’s gutting the EPA like his masters want…

I do expect him to be fired – probably over the weekend or early next week – as a sacrificial lamb to move the news cycle away from Manafort / Cohen / Russia / Internment Camps narratives.

Has anyone noticed that the NOKO summit storyline is less than 3 days old and (other than the “I want my people to sit up” nonsense from Fox & Friends on the Lawn) has basically moved off the radar?

Gotta feel sorry for the poor young woman.

A Pruitt spokesperson told the Times that the two were longtime friends and that “letters of recommendation are normal process for an application to law school.”

Apparently, Liberty University was her first choice.

But they turned her down after discovering she forged her letter of recommendation from Jesus.

And serving as an intern in the Trump White House isn’t something that will help her resume much either…

Maybe the head of the Trump Crime Family feels like he can still learn something from Pruitt about graft and corruption.

Whats the matter?

Poor guy is only trying to take care of his family…

Next thing will be that his dog has been accepted in the K-9 academy…

Does the list of corrupt things Pruitt has done even fit on one sheet of paper anymore?

Are we just reducing the font size each time now?

This is how rich connected people make sure their kids stay rich and connected. Only on steroids.

The recommendation letter from a for profit university apparently must have been lost in Betsy DeVos’ office.
