Fox News host Laura Ingraham, a prominent supporter of President Trump, said EPA chief Scott Pruitt should be ousted from the administration, following another report that he used government resources for personal gain.
“PRUITT BAD JUDGMENT HURTING [Trump], GOTTA GO,” Ingraham said Wednesday on Twitter.
The tweet linked to a news report, first in the Washington Post, that said Pruitt last year used a “top aide” to contact donors and others who might be able to secure a job for his wife.
The aide was identified by the report as Samantha Dravis, who at the time was serving as associate administrator for the EPA’s Office of Policy.

The report attributed the revelation to “multiple individuals familiar with the matter.”
It’s only the latest in a series of reports on Pruitt potentially having misused tax dollars and government resources, including a report last week that said Pruitt in May 2017 directed his scheduler at the EPA to reach out to Chick-Fil-A executives about his wife possibly opening her own franchise.
