EPA's chief ethics officer recommends investigations into Pruitt allegations: reports

Source: The Hill

The top ethics official at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is calling for a series of independent investigations into possible ethics violations by the agency's administrator, Scott Pruitt, according to multiple media reports.

In his letter to the Office of Government Ethics, the official, Kevin Minoli wrote that "additional potential issues regarding Mr. Pruitt have come to my attention through sources within the EPA and media reports," according to The Washington Post.

The New York Times first reported the letter on Saturday, after it obtained a copy through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

and try to watch the late night comedy videos Rhiannon12866 puts up. Like the rest of the country the news is pretty exhausting for me.

I am also spending too much time taking it out on morons on the other site. For sanity I read about fantasy builds on a swimming pool forum. Then I go jump in my little bag of water on sticks (cheap Intex pool).

There's nothing "possible" about it. It is in-your-face "flagrant" ethics violations that have not stopped yet - even after a year of media coverage about it.
