It's hard to get good help

And harder to keep them under Trump administrators.

Another political aide is departing EPA, making him the fourth staffer to exit the agency this week amid the raft of ongoing investigations into Administrator Scott Pruitt's expensive travel, security spending and condo rental.

John Konkus, the second-in-command on the public affairs team and who has worked with Pruitt since helping prepare him for his Senate confirmation, is leaving for a top communications job at the Small Business Administration.

Sources close to EPA expect more political appointees to join the exodus soon. On Thursday, EPA’s top spokeswoman Liz Bowman announced she was heading to a job on Capitol Hill, and on Tuesday, Pruitt’s lead security agent and Superfund task force head both quit. Last month, policy chief Samantha Dravis left and before that agriculture adviser Jeff Sands departed.

Seems like the same goal of State and other departments: destroy it by attrition. Bleed it dry.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
