EPA’s Pruitt is far cleaner than critics claim
EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt has been hounded lately by allegations of rich spending and poor judgment. While he could have detonated himself during recent congressional-oversight hearings, the former Oklahoma prosecutor seems to have survived those tests.

While Pruitt has plenty for which to answer, on at least three key counts, he seems to be cleaner than his critics claim.- Thursday, May 24, 2018
