take time. what do you think the lasting legacy of scott pruitt is likely going to be? it s going to depend on who you ask. if you ask senator inhofe or president trump, his legacy is that he was attacked by environment lists and the mainstream media, as people call publications like you and ours for rolling back regulations. if you ask other people, more independent experts, it will be he had a very messy, very short tenure at the agency and started a lot of regulatory rollbacks rolling and he didn t get very far. thanks very much for joining me. they were promised a path to citizenship. the trump administration is kicking out some immigrants serving in the u.s. army. we ll explain what is happening next. first, fact checking president trump in montana. wages, for the first time in
point, the american economy is really growing rapidly. we are the fastest growing g7 economy right now. we ve cut taxes. we ve pushed back regulations. here is the president being frankly the strongest trade reformer in the past two decades which if we could overcome these unfair trading barriers would help our economy and the economy of the rest of the world. we talked to trudeau as i said in the bilateral. we were coming together beautifully. okay? and then he goes out there and pulls this amateur political opportunity. look, it is not personal. trudeau is a smart guy as i said. i was working with him. i call him prime minister. he calls me larry. i m taking notes. i m going back to potus to see if he will accept this stuff. is there going to be payback? is the i don t know anything about that. what i m saying is the president had every right, every right to push back publicly on this trudeau amateurist scheme intha
from trump tower, a used mattress. what little tackles these people are given. federal ethics rules prohibit personal subordinates from carrying out personal tackles. let s move on. thisa weird thing. this guy keeps, pruitt is just radioactive. here thing. people will continue to leak from the epa because his own staff have real iue him. in particular, they believe the epa should be doing things and should be actually out regulating and scott pruitt does not believe that. he believes they should be pulling back regulations. we ll see a trickle trickle every single week. how about joni ernst saying he s a swampy fellow. that s a great line to say he s the swampy remember dre sw is that reality? is it rhetoric or reality? as it relates to scott pruitt, it s all e esident ally mns and i think republicans should be outraged. it s our duty to uphold the

office. and that s only what we knew about. joni earnrnst is calling him out, you got to be more frugal than that. although reviewing the allegations, pruitt had done a good job of implementing the president s policies. so is it all about rolling back regulations? that s part of the party for me, as a democrat but also someone who cares be it the environment. you have someone wasting money for soundproof booths, and going all around the country. we re also in a moment where climate change is a very important issue. we had puerto rico lose power over the weekend, bigger storms, more severe storms, those are directly caused by climate change, if you believe in science, unlike this administration. i think it s a bigger story than just about the corruption. i think that s an important piece of it and it does go in
