When is infrastructure week?
Nesrie
2917
A couple of days before the next big elections so he can promise do something he doesn’t have the intention of doing nor does he have the money because he’s too busy handing it away to the rich and corporations.
I feel like the interns or whoever that are tasked with writing the chyron text these days are getting kinda fed up with things.

One excuse that I heard was that he meant that he couldn’t guess what Trump would say about a question he was asked. That Trump hadn’t given him any information to pass on. But the chyron is probably true enough. He hires the best people.

It’s always infrastructure week.
You go your whole life never hearing a word like chyron and suddenly it’s everywhere.

Chyron you mean? I chyron all the chyroning time. My grandchyron was known as the chyron of the chyroned neighborhood. That’s just fnord.
It’s a perfectly cromulent word.

Again, that is totally illegal, and nothing will happen.
One thing you have to say about Pruitt: he’s thorough. No grift is too petty, no scam too demeaning!

Pruitt is… Ridiculously cheap. Like, parody level cheap here.
The biggest scandal of all is that if Pruitt were simply and quietly doing his job (which is the dismantling of the EPA from within), it wouldn’t be a scandal.

There is seemingly a neverending stream of corruption coming from Pruitt at this point. Like, a dozen new stories every day.

It’s crazy how far gone the GOP is. Look, you can clean your house without giving up hobbies like stealing children and depriving people of healthcare.
So whose job is it to actually look at this stuff and decide whether to make a federal case about it? Someone at DOJ? Or do we all just squeak and gibber in the streets?
