accusing the department of committing a Hatch Act violation

I mean if it’s never going to be enforced why would republicans care.

Can’t imagine there are too many undecided conversationist / Sierra club members but leave it to this administration to find a new way to waste money, violate ethical standards, publicly embarrassing themselves, and break federal law all at the same time. Bravo.

Do not pass go. Go directly to jail.

Co-conspirator - hopefully … eventually indicted

Bernhardt relocated the headquarters of the Bureau of Land Management from Washington, D.C., to Grand Junction, Colorado, on August 11, 2020
As Secretary of the Interior, he defended the Trump administration’s rollback of environmental regulations

Imagine the smuggest, smarmiest environment ravaging bastard you ever recall seeing …

These violations of the Hatch Act (and totally inappropriate uses of tax monies) don’t just happen in a vacuum. This WH has become a campaign headquarters and congressional investigators should determine who is ordering and coordinating such agency responses. Is there a way to hold the guilty personally responsible?

God I hate Trump, Trumpers, those who look the other way, and especially those who double down on being more Trumpian than Trump.

The Hatch Act is about as much of an impediment to the commission of unethical behavior as the FEC.

Yeah right, “invest in the ethics program”. Teapot Dome is going to look like small potatoes compared to this band of thieves.

I hope there was an inventory taken of everything in the White House and it’s environs. I hope that priceless historical artifacts have been documented with provenance. I do not put it past the Trump Crime Family to loot and pillage whatever they can.

Nasty tasteless grifters.

And I’ll bet it cost more than the 750 bucks Trump kicked in.
