The Environmental Protection Agency has done what few government regulators ever seem to do, shrink in size. Since April of this year an estimated 770 members of the agency have either retired, taken a buy-out or just out right quit now that there is an administration willing to rein in the agency’s regulatory overreach.

The EPA is Jimmy Carter’s baby, it is not listed anywhere in the Constitution. Fire any of the agents that remain and shut the thing down.
They’ll all probably go on the payroll of Soros and join antifa.
This agency is a total waste of taxpayer funds and should be flushed down the proverbial porcelain pathway a early as possible.
sounds like a good start
In 2016, the agency had 15,376 full-time employees.[1] More than half of EPA’s employees are engineers, scientists, and environmental protection specialists; other employees include legal, public affairs, financial, and information technologists. In 2017 the Trump administration proposed a 31% cut to the EPA’s budget to $5.7 billion from $8.1 billion and to eliminate a quarter of the agency jobs.[3]
We have people to help you pack!
This is what winning looks like!
Actually, I believe the EPA was started under Tricky Dicky if my memory serves me right. But as usual, a good intention turns into a Governmental monster when set up in a way to run unchecked.
To happily misquote an ahole:
“The EPA has a fever.”
Hahahahahahaha. I love it.
Now do the same to Homeland Security, Department of Education, and every other bureaucratic blackhole, that sucks taxpayers dry…that would be ALL of them.
And destroy public employee unions, while you’re at it.
EPA / Dept. of Education
Should be done by lazy states.
Also, your passport, and federal apostille services should be done by federal departments at the STATE level, so you can get your stuff back fast. It’s clogged to the top of the pipe as it is now.
770 so far? Not good enough. Should be 770 per month. Then let’s have a little contest to see which Federal agencies can beat that record. Pay off the national debt.
Damn, I say Damn the bad luck…..
Nixon did the Department of Energy and Department of Education. the EPA came later

The U.S. Senate confirmed William Ruckelshaus as EPA’s first Administrator. C. Administrator Ruckelshaus signed EPA Order 1110.2 creating the …
The EPA was Nixon’s baby and started after he signed an executive order in 1970.
Jimmy Carter signed into the law the Department of Energy Act in 1977. Jimmy Carter was also responsible for the Department of Education in 1979.
If you really want to get pissed about Republicans in the past read up on how income tax came about when Republicans were playing games with the Democrats.
Bye bitches. Bulldoze it and reduce its carbon footprint to zero.
How did Nature ever survive wthout government assistance before 1972.
It should have been erased when EPA employees (lunatics, anqueefs) were caught shitting and wiping menstrual blood all over the Denver office.

Awww … ain’t that a shame?
Maybe they’ll hold their breath till they turn blue!
Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish.
izlamo delenda est …
Sorry, Mr. President. Still not too much winning, but please keep working at it.
Well I hope those responsible for the botched mine “cleanup” in CO, and fucking with Gibson guitars were among those 770 employees.

The EPA was started under Nixon, not Carter
Getting rid of dilapidated hippies is a good thing. Why are they getting buyouts? Unions do not belong in the public sector
And the down side is?
Are there really 770 less bureaucrats?
Or, are there MORE bureaucrats this year like every other year, but just 770 less additional than the number we add annually every other year?
