Scott Pruitt's EPA Confirmation Hearing Was a Surreal Nightmare
Scott Pruit should be rejected. Fossil fuel shill and gimp. Absolutely unfit and inappropriate for the office.
"In general, Pruitt’s finances are a serious issue of contention.
Although he swore he had no ongoing conflicts of interest, Pruitt reportedly received $215,000 in donations from executives within the energy industry. The New York Times reports that Truitt received $40,000 from poultry executives
during his campaign for attorney general, later choosing not to renew a
2003 agreement that compelled poultry plants to reduce water pollution
from poultry plants.
There are points where Pruitt came across
both as patently unqualified and shamelessly unethical, particularly
when he refused to answer simple questions. The whole thing was
disappointing, but not the least bit surprising."
