Why a teacher carried her 2-year-old up to Scott Pruitts restaurant table and asked him to resign
By Avi Selk July 3 Email the author
We can only speculate what Scott Pruitt thinks about when he eats lunch. But he looked relaxed at his table at Teaism on Monday afternoon exactly 500 days into his directorship of the Environmental Protection Agency; five days after the agencys top ethics official recommended widening an investigation into accusations that he misused his power; about five hours before The Washington Post reported that Pruitt once asked a subordinate to help find his wife a job; and less than five minutes before Kristin Mink wiped a smile off his face.
A few tables from the EPA administrator, Mink was wrangling her 2-year-old into his seat while she waited for her pancake.
The 33-year-old teacher was spending the day showing out-of-town relatives around the muggy heart of Washington, and she might not have even noticed the EPA administrator had her husband not pointed him out.
