This was kind of a wild Xweet to read from Charlie Gasparino this afternoon.
Just got stopped in the subway by a dude in a suit who said “just so ya know all the lawyers at the @EPA got laid off I’m one of them.”

All the lawyers at the Environmental Protection Agency?
GONE?
How ’bout them apples?
My initial reaction was, I hope they swath the building in heavy cloth and fumigate the f**k out of it. Because, you know.
IT’S THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE
Other reactions to the news only confirmed my feelings about that nest of ideological vipers. The unanimity across the board was astonishing. People can feel sorry for the clerk in an office caught up in this, the GS-7 who just processes tax returns, or the janitor at a soon-to-be-sold federal building.
They’re worker bees, not policy wonks and attack dogs.
But EPA…
