.@thrudasmog: re your reply to EPA, it's hard to hold them & Trump officials accountable because Twitter heavily censors replies from Trump opponents. Start by urging reporters to cover the real data at my pinned tweet. https://twitter.com/EPA/status/1107642815650107392

@KnickmeyerEllen @EPA @Interior We've been covering the shutdown's effects on parks, park rangers, states, and gateway communities! @NPCA

.@NPCA: @KnickmeyerEllen is extremely opinionated for a "reporter". That turns her into an advocate Trump fans/leaders can easily ignore. She plays right into Trump's hands. Also, do you hold it in when you're in the backcountry until you get back to the visitor center toilets?

Most Predictable Headline Award goes to: “Trump @EPA Official... Arrested On Criminal Ethics Charges.” https://t.co/EFDFSLfWl8

@SenWhitehouse @Hopewenttodie @EPA Good one @blatherat !

.@sandibachom: @blatherat snarks about Trump's "raking" claim. A real journalist would have found what Trump might have been told about: the Fixteri machine (look it up). Then she would have found experts to weigh in on if it would work in the USA. She's not a real journalist.

I've been subscribed to EPA news alerts for over a year now. Since the election, the shift is absolutely nuts. 1/

(this is a short dumb thread) Pre-election: studious, quotidian stuff re: projects, initiatives etc. Scientific studies.

Post-election? Mostly press clips praising Pruitt, news of Pruitt's various trips.

Nearly all praise is about industry-friendliness; nearly all initiatives cooperating with industry.

Even casually, narrowly viewed through news alerts, the picture is one of a dept that has near utterly abdicated its duty to regulate.

Anyway, today the AP wrote about Superfund sites in Texas exposed to floods. "EPA not on scene," they wrote.

The EPA put out a press release calling the AP's reporting "misleading and inaccurate..." https://t.co/lGR0BvEoFi

So not only has the EPA abdicated the duties it has performed for 50 years, it is engaging in political smearing of the press and critics.

This is your government in the era of Trump. /end

Addendum: the @EPA followed up with a personal attack on the AP reporter, w/o citing inaccuracies: https://t.co/bkyLqPRabz

@EPA Addendum to the addendum: this press release has been removed from @EPA site. Here's what it said: https://t.co/gx1h2mnlEd

@chick_in_kiev @EPA Looks like it's back up at https://t.co/zqlSdfEqIY

@seanhecht @EPA And still citing Breitbart. Unbefuckinglievable.

.@chick_in_kiev: I filed complaint w/ EPA OIG about the Breitbart link. File your own complaint & reference mine for max impact.
