Dan T. Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Here's why Scott Pruitt should not only be fired, but probably prosecuted. (Stay with me on this. I've provided links to back up statements.) For a short time, billiionaire investor Carl Icahn was an advisor to President Trump. He played a big role in recommending Scott Pruitt to the EPA job. (1) Remember Pruiitt's trip to Morocco? It was in the news for its extravagance, the large entourage that went with him, and the luxury stop-over in London. But it was for business, right? Well, a primary purpose was to promote liquid natural gas energy use and to encourage Morocco to export natural gas from the U.S. (2) A couple of problems with that. First, promoting use of liquid natural gas internationally is not the role of the EPA Administrator. Second, at the time of that trip, the ONLY active U.S. liquid natural gas exporting plant was owned by Cheniere Energy Inc. A couple of huge red flags with that. 1. The largest stockholder in Cheniere Energy, Inc. is Carl Icahn. (3) Yeah, that guy. Who helped get Pruitt that job. 2. That condo Pruitt was renting for $50 a night? It is owned by the wife of energy lobbyist J. Steven Hart chairman of Williams & Jensen. Among his clients? Cheniere Energy, Inc. (4) Send Pruitt back to Oklahoma, if not to jail.

LadySkinsFan Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Really, too many days of saying that Pruitt is doing a great job. That's true enough, Pruitt is deregulating the EPA at a furious pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt goes to Morocco on the government time and dime to lobby for the liquified natural gas industry. If he's successful, the only company that can export natural gas to Morocco is Cheniiere Energy, owned in large part by Trump pal Carl Icahn, the man who got Pruitt the EPA job, and represented by lobbyist J. Steven Hart, who gave Pruitt the $50 a night sweetheart DC condo deal. Move along. Nothing to see here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 You'd think at some point having a guy who is borderline psychotically delusional and who lashes out at those delusions in literal world-changing ways since he's President of the United States might raise some issues. Sigh, the good ole days when general mental stability was considered a baseline prerequisite for a POTUS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Sounds like what she said about McMaster. Although he seems to like Pruitt and what he's done, unlike McMaster, who he found annoying on a personal level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadySkinsFan Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Carl Icahn, who Pruitt has benefited, is the same Carl Icahn who dumped millions in steel-related stocks and the subject of another thread here about that. He's the same Carl Icahn of junk bond infame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I’ve got a bad feeling about this whole Stormy Daniels thing. Avenatti is a savage but his goal is to get his client a whole bunch of money. I’m worried this ends with the Trump crew writing her a bigger check and us never hearing another word about it.

Who cares if she gets more money, it won't be from Trump or Cohen. Besides, we already know what she has to say from her interview with Anderson. I, for one, don't need to know the particulars about his dick and what he's like in bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
