More Comings and Goings

Environmental Destruction Agency chief Scott Pruitt is out, the victim of his own lavish spending and influence peddling.  But those who think they can literally breathe easier ought to remember that Andrew Wheeler, the acting EDA administrator, is a former coal lobbyist.  Pruitt's departure treated a symptom.  The disease goes merrily on.

And Brett Kavanaugh, the new Supreme Court nominee?  I think his record says all you need to know about him, so I won't do more than cite it . . . and mention his opinion that sitting U.S. Presidents can't be indicted while in office.

Ironically, he worked for Ken Starr on the Whitewater investigation.

Please note that I didn't mention the current President's name.  I'm taking Martin O'Malley's advice and not talking about him. 

Oh yeah, Kavanaugh's another Catholic . . . are we ever going to see a Protestant on the High Court again??
