Poor Ryan. He’s forced out, but before he hits the door the New York Times editorial board kicks him in the ass.

Well, that’s how they funded it then, lobbyists buying “tickets”. Pay for play. Merry Christmas.
He has “I’m a Dickhead” plastered across his face. What an awful person.
Just to clarify, I have nothing against the horse that Zinke rode in on.

Wow, this could be the understatement of this administration. Something to carve on each of their headstones…

I hope and pray that there are a number of long term Federal employees at the DOI have been keeping track of all the illegal crap that Zinke has been pulling. I know that I would have done that, and now with the Dems in control, they can send it all to the appropriate Congressional committee(s). They need to make an example of scum like Zinke to make it less likely that it will happen again.

A “stuffed” polar bear? How does Zinke plan to secure a job with an environmental terrorism company with that cuddly thing? Couldn’t he get a freshly killed real polar bear (bravely killed from a helicopter, in full view of Russia, by a high-powered rifle courtesy of Caribou Barbie) holding an ice cube? (Take that!! Polar bear.)
Well, don’t expect any offers from logging companies, and frackers. Pussy!!
Only the best people, we were promised.
I hear you. Like Roy Moore’s horse, Zinke’s (whether actual or metaphor) should be held blameless for Z’s bullshit shenanigans.
I am tired of sleazy, borderline criminal politicians avoiding most of the consequences of their unethical behaviors while being on the Public’s dime by finally resigning after all else fails. Many investigations are simply dropped when the unethical Pols finally quit. They should be prevented from resigning until all ethical and criminal investigations, if need be, are concluded. They should go on unpaid leave, like dirty cops do when they are under investigations for proscribed activities. Why not dirty Politicians too?

Oh the irony… Fossil Fuel Industry Darling (rhymes with Finky) Uses Stuffed “Fossil Fuel Endangered” Species For Photo Op".
And it was just yesterday I’d asked the question of friends, is “Taxidermy” still a thing, outside the small cadre of wealthy “trophy hunters” and “pet stuffers”?
Yes, we need to find a way to do away with truly disgusting levels of wealth inequality combined with government access. Besides, it leaves nothing for them to do but kill things, stuff them, and create entertainments with the corpses.
Taxes used to moderate wealth. Rich always got richer, but not like now. It really must be seen to before we all perish under the weight of their folly.
Or a painful and chronic case of black lung. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy…
I had already reserved that slot for Scott Pruitt (funny how he just went away, without a single consequence for all his misdeeds, as if “losing the job” is already consequence enough), but Zinke would be a fine alternative. Plenty more where they came from too…
Oops. Now you’ve done it.

And you just KNOW that if the Bison on that flag in the photo lede were alive, he’d have it killed and stuffed too, as an example and a warning to any wildlife that try to impede the FF industry. Or, just for shits and giggles and an extra party prop…

I think we can put to bed the notion that being a Navy Seal or other special force member is any special qualification for holding any office in this country. I am sick of hearing this as a qualification.
The SEALs are a formidable fighting force that are about the best in the world but with all the self aggrandizing some of them do in their books (Chris Kyle) and the self serving bullshit that SEALs like Eric Prince and Zinke (who has been discredited by his former commander) do I sometimes think they should change their name to the SHPEELS.

Unless the alliance of rabbits and chipmunks is with us, then I’ll stick at a million, as I think the governments would go for it, plus the shipping of a billion to my skull-shaped island would really be a drag - I don’t have that kind of storage space (evil lairs need a lot of closet and cleaning equipment space)

He has to go out with a grift. A matter of principle to him.
