After only 4 days on the job, the Interior Department’s office of inspector general reports that it has opened a formal investigation into ethical conflicts (ALLEGED!) by a former lobbyist for natural resources industries and newly confirmed Interior Secretary David Bernhardt.
Bernhardt is being investigated for a number of questionable ethical violations, including:
- pushing a former lobbying client’s policy goal (ALLEGEDLY!)
- blocking a science report on the harmful effects of a pesticide (ALLEGEDLY!)
- [prepare yourselves for a shock Gentle Readers!] continuing to act as a lobbyist (ALLEGEDLY!)

This is the problem with the MHSB’s ever accelerating race to the bottom: easch new appointee is worse than the one before. At some point an actual live shit-flinging face-eating rabid chmpanzee will be appointed, and Yertle the traitorous turtle will wave it on through.
Might as well just start the ‘Hercules for President’ campaign now, because cleaning up is gonna make the Augean Stables look like child’s play…

BDR – could you please elaborate on the definition of MHSB? Because I’m not sure whether to go with the Martha Hicks School of Ballet, or this:

That’s an interesting slogan – “We don’t have Hercules, but my candidate is the next best thing”

Looking back, the outrage over Sean Spicer’s lies about the size of the inauguration crowd seems quaint. $35,000 for a dining room set is a pittance.

To simplify things this administration should start hiring/appointing people who are already in prison. I’m positive that your average republican wouldn’t care.

Come now, if you’re going to appoint a human lamprey like Dave Bernhardt.to public office there’s no use vamping around pretending he’s here to improve the commonweal. He may as well start right in grifting with both hands and his snout.

Yes, that’s the essence of the issue. What is wrong with the other 4th Reich grifters? What is taking them so long?!

And to top it all off, he’s one of those sterling examples of Manhood who uses a telescopicsighted high powered rifle to bring down a large and powerful animal, and then has a photo of hiimself grinning over the corpse, which in death outclasses his repulsive self-bloated inanity by countless orders of magnitude.
Translation: If I had him here I’d spit in his face and kick him in the testicles.
