It’s worse when they don’t have to, though.

And personally, I want my public servants to show respect to the tax dollars extorted from us. That means no damned fancy offices and private or even first class flights.

Put everyone lower than Pence in a cubicle, give ‘em the smallest Ford, no driver, and tell ‘em “it’s coach or you walk” when to comes to flying.

no government official should live better than the average veteran or SSI recipient.

Not too many SSI recipients have a million wackos trying to take them out.

...Hope Wheeler packs heat, knows how to use it, drives a Humvee (up armored with run flat tires), and lives in a gated community...

Don't kid yourself - Pruitt did provide some ammo, but they will still go after Wheeler hammer-and-tong because they now have a scalp. They won't stop, now.

The Left cries about Wheeler’s lobbying....
“Murray Energy was Wheeler’s best-paying client, paying more than $300,000 during the period 2009-2017.”

Pretty cheap if you ask me.

““””””The allegations against Pruitt were not fabricated”””””

Is an allegation a fact or a guess?”

Bingo. Pruitt was hounded out by leftists over trivia while under Obama’s regime they “tolerated” a thousand times more graft and corruption by their own kind. The commie socialists practice the fine art of Saul Alinsky, any means to an end to achieve their goals. And they succeeded against Pruitt, although it is definitely a pyrrhic victory, as now the EPA is led by Wheeler who will be 10 times worse to enviroweenie causes than Pruitt was. To their great future chagrin I’m sure.

The left had a dirty trick with Obama’s EPA. Some wacko eco group would sue the government, and Obama’s EPA would *not* contest it at trial, then say they had no choice but to add that wacko demand to their regulations, “because the courts say so.”

So this needs to be turned on its head. Conservative orgs need to *sue* the EPA over their stupider regulations, with the idea that President Trump’s EPA *not* contest it in court, and thus END onerous regulation after regulation.

If Wheeler is willing to play ball, any and every conservative that had been abused by the EPA could fight back.

Pruitt was another scalp we gave them. Who’s next?

Perhaps - but Pruitt stepped on his own junk.

Re: “If we could bump CO2 up into whole percentage points, oxygen would also follow it.”

So, if we did add a few percentage points of oxygen and CO2, would the atmosphere increase in mass, which, I assume, would increase air pressure?

Or, would the atmosphere increase in volume, shed nitrogen into space, and hold steady at 14.7 psi?

No, Pruitt really was clueless on that count.

This guy knows the score.

Early on they thought if they got a scalp Trump would send in one of their guys as a replacement. (E.g., Flynn to McMaster). But of late Trump has become more confident and nimble (e.g., McMaster to Bolton—bwahaha!) and so that’s not much happening any more.

“Is an allegation a fact or a guess?”

Who knows? Ask an allegator.
