EPA watchdog suggests agency recover $124,000 in Pruitt’s 'excessive’ travel expenses
Agency rejects the idea, calling ‘cost recovery inappropriate’ because officials had approved Pruitt’s trips at the time

https://www.washingtonpost.com/clima...avel-expenses/

Of course they reject any sort of oversight or accountability whatsoever - they’re Trumpkins!

Access to a government jet 24 hours a day. An office in the West Wing, plus guaranteed weekends off for family time. And an assurance of being made secretary of homeland security by November.

Those were among a list of 10 conditions that Kris Kobach, the former Kansas secretary of state, has given to the White House if he is to become the administration’s “immigration czar,” a job President Trump has been looking to create to coordinate immigration policy across government agencies.

LOL.

Actually, I'm not sure 'czar' is the best metaphor here. The comparison that occurs to me is to that authoritarian regime in Germany. 'Immigration Reichsfuehrer' perhaps? The portfolio would seem to fit the person who will lead the built-up 'removal forces' Trump recently alluded to.

He clearly thinks well of himself, and figures there's no real competition for this hot potato of a job....

And to think that a judge in Kansas compelled him to take remedial legal training after a botched appearance in his courtroom.

A lawmaker asked Carson about foreclosure properties. He thought she was talking about Oreos.

Rex Tillerson, a man who is “dumb as a rock” and totally ill prepared and ill equipped to be Secretary of State, made up a story (he got fired) that I was out-prepared by Vladimir Putin at a meeting in Hamburg, Germany. I don’t think Putin would agree. Look how the U.S. is doing!

I have chosen one of the truly great business leaders of the world, Rex Tillerson, Chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil, to be Secretary of State.

The thing I like best about Rex Tillerson is that he has vast experience at dealing successfully with all types of foreign governments.

Hey, Whell! You speak fluent Donny, which of these statements is true (if any)? Only the best people...

The 2019 one is totally 1984 in it's editing of history. BTW, it paints Trump as dumb as a rock for appointing such a stupid person. Base doesn't care though.
