Yes, this person and their coworkers are looking to leave the EPA. I'm sure Trump supporters will be thrilled to dine on pesticides but government is evil so it must end - except the Republicans who love government if they can profit from it.

Dear, you created the topic. Furthermore.....

You didn't answer the question. Did you relative submit their resignation?

It's pretty simple. Yes or No will suffice.

I took the time to thoughtfully and sincerely answer the question. The instructions say the Ignore button is available when posters have different levels of politeness; makes sense.

I have had that one on ignore for some time. Welcome to the club.

Here is how to add someone to ignore:
1) far upper right - click on your user name
2) upper left click on - My Settings
3) mid left choose - "Edit Ignore List"
4) add username that you want to ignore to the list, click "Add", then "Save Changes".

You claimed in the OP that our food would not be safe due the the fact your relative would resign from the EPA if Trump was elected.

Are you saying now that none of it was true? i.e. That our food is still safe to eat despite the fact that Trump has been elected.

Hahaha, they don't like questions that would cause them to have to tell the truth...instead, there's screeching about the "ignore" button...as if doing that is hurtful.

Exactly where is the lie? Where? My relative is looking for other positions in the private sector and Trump is not even in office yet. This comes off like a personal attack when it was nothing more than sharing one person's experience. Of course Trump supporters attack this person who is a military veteran that went to Bush's Iraq War so they must not be much for our soldiers unless they can use them as a political weapon.

Was the EPA protecting us from GMOs too, or did they get a pass by buying preferential treatment from this and previous administrations?
