Seth Meyers takes a break from breaking news to check in on how Trump’s EPA has been quietly implementing big changes, to benefit a select few financially at the cost of our health, the quality of the air and the water.
By now you’ve wrapped your head around Trump’s process for appointees…They must be the most contrary and antagonistic person toward the agency they are selected to head. Possibly no one has spent more time litigating against the EPA than Scott Pruitt. Seth points out, Pruitt is as appropriate a choice for the position of head of the EPA, as a rat with a clipboard for health inspector. But of all of Trump’s appointees, Pruitt, sad to say has been more successful at his mission of destroying the environment.
So what if and climate change may be the biggest threat in the foreseeable future – just stop collecting data on it. To all of the people panicking over carcinogenic pesticides on their food? Just relax, that is very fake news. You see? Pruitt and Trump have it all under control.
