Albert Kelly banned for life from banking. So who is Albert Kelly? Fuking Hilarious!

EPA official banned from banking; congressman wants answers

FDIC issues $125,000 penalty, puts banking restrictions on former SpiritBank chairman, CEO

Trump put him in a cushy $180,000.00 a year jobs fuking over the EPA as a senior advisor.

Republicans like that because getting rid of the EPA means plenty of new filth. Remember "drain the swamp"? That's just to get to the filth that's under the dirty water.

Not the first time. Remember the mother of new Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch?

Superfund sites are in danger of flooding, putting millions of Americans at risk.

Anne Gorsuch slashed the EPA’s budget by 22 percent and aggressively rolled back clean air and clean water rules and other protections. A lawyer herself, she apparently did not like to see the legal system used to protect the environment: “In the first year of the Reagan administration, there was a 79 percent decline in the number of enforcement cases filed from regional offices to EPA headquarters, and a 69 percent decline in the number of cases filed from the EPA to the Department of Justice,” a House staffer told Grist in 2004. Anne Gorsuch resigned less than two years into the job over a scandal involving mismanagement of the Superfund program.

Just like his mother, he's a "staunch conservative". WTF is a "staunch conservative"? Someone who wants to destroy this country and leave a pig swamp in it's place? What is it with Republicans that they want to live in filth. I understand the greed. But filth? Whaaat? Why?

Can someone give me an answer? What is it with conservatives and filth? Anyone?

Wonder how Neil will rule on cases that include the EPA. Only if it fuks the environment. That he will defend.

Insofar as his mother was an EPA official, there's a strong argument to be made that he should recuse himself for such cases. Gorsuch may well do so for pretty much the same reasons Justice Thomas recused himself in 1996's United States v. Virginia.

Aside:

Justice Thomas may have to recuse himself on quite a few upcoming cases (though I don't know what cases or when they'll come before the Court) because his wife is not just an adamant and very vocal Trump supporter. Among other things, she has become an active organizer of groups that advocate explicitly in favor of Trump's policies on the basis of those policies being Trump policies.

​

Of course, there's nothing wrong with her doing those things; however, her doing them, with regard to matters she and her organization actively advocate, compromises Justice Thomas' apparent neutrality/independence and raises the question of whether, in ruling either way on matters for which his wife advocates, Justice Thomas' decision was made entirely on account of the law and not in part on account of a conflict of interest nexused by his wife's active involvement in politics.

Judges, especially SCOTUS justices, must not be seen to have external-to-themselves conflicts of interest or, as go the judges themselves, financial conflicts of interest. Ensuring that an appellate court's decision was made absent plausible and/or obvious conflicts of interest is why SCOTUS justices also have declined to participate in cases in which close relatives, such as their children, are lawyers for one of the parties and in cases whereof they have a close family member who is connected to one of the parties, even though that family member has no direct involvement in the case.

Unless his mother, who resigned from the EPA in 1983 and died in 2004, was directly involved in a matter that comes up now before the Supreme Court, unbelievably slim chance of that, there is zero reason he should recuse himself.

You wish.

I back up my statements with links and facts.

Facts are something you have zero interest in.
