purchase from that same shop in 2009, the jewelry shop when we re talking about the pens, and they put it under the category of nonmonetary awards for administrator. that is only 3 hundreds less than pruitt s epa spent so do you think we re being overly scrutinizing because of the history as we just discussed? well, i think there s two things. first of all, i think it s terrible to hear that it happened in the last administration too. you know, i learned that as you did when the news reporting on it came out this week, and i definitely think if there s any option to continue looking into that, they should. that said, i still don t think that there s anything akin to the pattern of behavior that we ve consistently seen with scott pruitt, and all his defenders ever point to is his policy positions, including defenders in congress. and so the message is, the ethics program doesn t matter at all if we like your policies, and if we don t, then we ll go after you for any ethics violations.
