Apparently this writer is unaware of how he ran the AG's office like a monarchy.  SMH.

“Whatever Scott Pruitt’s problems, whether they were self-inflicted or not, it really doesn’t matter, in my view, because his approach was correct, and that needs to continue,” said Dewey F. Bartlett Jr., an oil executive and former mayor of Tulsa.

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Trump jokingly congratulated acting EPA chief on not acting like Pruitt
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/423165-trump-jokingly-congratulated-acting-epa-head-on-not-acting-like

President Trump has reportedly jokingly congratulated acting EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler on avoiding ethics scandals that plagued his predecessor, Scott Pruitt.

The Washington Post reported Friday citing senior administration officials that Trump on more than one occasion congratulated Wheeler for not attempting to buy a used mattress from the Trump hotel in Washington, D.C., which Pruitt once reportedly tried to do.

The detail came in a story examining Pruitt's job prospects in the wake of his departure from the Trump administration following months of scrutiny over his first-class travel and other decisions.

Over $800,000 in travel costs in Pruitt's first year.  About like Trump...oh, wait, no - Trump spends millions per trip to Mar A Lago...

Our very own, dearest Scott Pruitt finally has another job!!   Good for him...

Lobbying for coal.  In Indiana.  Well, I guess...if anyone can be convinced to believe in him, it has to be coal.  Heather Tryon company manager for his only client, RailPoint Solutions LLC, a Delaware corporation created in January that has no listed street address or website.

She also appears to be the CFO of Terre Haute-based Sunrise Coal, which operates four coal mines in the state.

Bless his heart....  in the MOST Southern definition of the phrase possible.

We are among the leader states in exporting Idiocracy.


Before leading the war on clean air and water as head of the EPA, former Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt asked the U.S. Supreme Court to declare Colorado’s legalization of marijuana unconstitutional on this day in 2014.

File it under "Dont Make This Mistake Again"

Scott Pruitt’s political comeback began Friday.

Four years after exiting the Environmental Protection Agency’s top spot amid a hail of ethics and management scandals and complaints, the former state senator and Oklahoma attorney general walked unannounced into the Capitol at midday Friday and filed for U.S. Senate.

Asked how he would address questions about the circumstances of his 2018 departure from Washington, Pruitt essentially blamed political enemies for the bad publicity.
