Well folks, this little tidbit seems to be making both sides of the environmental-aisle say *#EPAfail.*
The man who claims he doesn’t know where over a billion dollars of investor’s money went in the now-bankrupt MF-Global just happens to be the financial adviser to the EPA.

“Petitioners have satisfied the standards required for a stay pending court review,” Judges Brett Kavanaugh, Thomas Griffith and Janice Rogers Brown said in the brief ruling…
