Michael Regan, administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Facebook Twitter WhatsApp SMS Email Print Copy article link Save U.
S. Rep. Clay Higgins, a Louisiana Republican, recently used his position of power as a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability to attack the character of the director of the Environmental Protection Agency, Michael S.
Regan. His emotional outburst puts on a full dress parade a series of grievances now carried on the shoulders of conservatives like a bag of rotten potatoes. For example, Higgins said, “To have an agenda-driven green new deal, anti-American, anti-American energy, anti-American petrol-chemical agenda shoved down our throat by an administration that claims it's doing so on behalf of protecting the world's ecological stability.
" Higgins has resurrected the ghost of Sen. Joe McCarthy, America’s infamous “Communist hunter.” McCarthy’s career can be summed up in one remark he made in a speech in West Virginia: "The State Department is infested with communists.
I have here in my hand a list of 205 — a list of names that were made known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Communist Party and who are still working in the State Department." In a similar fashion, Higgins makes baseless accusations against Regan. Higgins is part of the conspiratorial wave that ignores the dangers of global warming.
Higgins will not suffer the burden of his ignorance — his grandchildren and great-grandchi.
