WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal ethics officials have cleared President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for the Environmental Protection Agency for confirmation.

The Office of Government Ethics on Monday released the personal financial disclosure report for Scott Pruitt, currently Oklahoma’s attorney general. The ethics office affirmed that Pruitt’s disclosures comply with applicable federal laws and rules.

No date has been set for Pruitt’s Senate confirmation hearing.

His finances are among the least complicated of Trump’s Cabinet nominees, who include several billionaires. In just four pages, Pruitt disclosed an investment portfolio valued between $420,000 and $1 million, held primarily in mutual funds, bonds and a state retirement plan.

2. Investment Guru

and real estate entrepreneur Robert Kiyosaki writes repeatedly
how a bunch of mutual funds are for losers because they're just
subject to the markets ups and downs. So this dork, with
that kind of money, doesn't even know how to invest it well.
Pure putz, reject the stupid.

Oh wait. Don's the smartest guy in the room and wants to keep it that way.

would be considered a decent source. The orange menace himself worked with him to produce the truly shitty: "Why We Want You To Be Rich, Two Men One Message"
