Senate confirms a former coal lobbyist as Scott Pruitt’s second-in-command at EPA

https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...9f0_story.html

Andrew Wheeler worked at the EPA more than two decades ago and later served as an adviser to Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.), a high-profile critic of climate science who famously brought a snowball to the Senate floor as a prop. For the past nine years, Wheeler has been a lobbyist for a variety of companies, including Appalachian coal mining firm Murray Energy.

A pathetic creep. Trump will eventually find a way to cram him under the bus, and it will serve him right.

GOP response to Scott Pruitt's absurdly unethical behavior is pure cowardice https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinio...ans-ncna866881

One of U.S. President Donald Trump’s leading voter-fraud investigators was ruled in contempt of court for flouting a judge’s orders to ensure that voters in his home state weren’t misled ahead of the 2016 general election.

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who was vice chairman of the election integrity commission that the Trump administration disbanded in January, was cited Wednesday by the chief federal judge in Kansas for a “history of noncompliance and disrespect” for the court’s decisions.

Giuliani is now part of Trump's defense team, only the best will do for Trump. Question remains, best at what? Being a sycophant?

Giuliani says he is joining Trump’s legal team to ‘negotiate an end’ to Mueller probe

Giuliani to negotiate with Mr. Muelle and that's a joke. Hey Giuliani, you might get investigated in the bargain.

Quote:
Former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, a combative former prosecutor and longtime ally of President Trump, told The Washington Post on Thursday that he has joined the president’s legal team dealing with the ongoing special counsel probe.

“I’m doing it because I hope we can negotiate an end to this for the good of the country and because I have high regard for the president and for Bob Mueller,” Giuliani said in an interview.

Trump counsel Jay Sekulow said Thursday in a statement that Giuliani is joining the team along with two former federal prosecutors, Jane Serene Raskin and Marty Raskin, a couple who jointly run a Florida-based law firm.
