EPA chief Pruitt had office swept for surveillance bugs
Source: The Hill
The head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had his office professionally examined earlier this year to look for covert surveillance devices.
The EPA paid $3,000 in March to Edwin Steinmetz Associates to do a sweep for covert/illegal surveillance devices in Administrator Scott Pruitts office at the agency's Washington, D.C., headquarters, documents provided to The Hill show.
The EPA source that provided the documents on the condition of anonymity said the sweep, which came weeks after Pruitts arrival at the agency, did not uncover any bugs.

(24,735 posts)Hey Pruitt just for your information, I think I will file a freedom of information act request to find out if the EPA has turned into a spy agency, because if so, then you have broken the law----------where does it say that you can do this, who fucking authorized you to do just this?
it is a violation of the rule of law, just because your the head of the EPA, doesn't give you the right to have your own little kingdom that you can just have that fucking power!
Don't think so asshole
