Convicted felon designed EPA’s playbook for faking science
TND Article Spotlight: Ron Arnold | Washington Examiner | 
Everything the public believes about President Obama‘s Environmental Protection Agency is wrong – the only thing that powerful agency protects is its royal kingdom, ruling over the American economy with the highest-cost rules in the nation’s entire bureaucracy.
And the promised huge benefits of EPA’s rule-making were wildly overstated in rule after rule using a tactic invented by John Beale, a corrupt high EPA official – now a convicted and imprisoned felon for pretending to be a CIA agent while doing no work and living lavishly on the EPA executive payroll – with the complicity, urging and praise of agency elites including EPA boss Gina McCarthy.
America, we’ve been swindled.
The day after my July 1 column rebuking the EPA’s empire-building, I received a number of EPA and congressional documents and letters that indicated I hadn’t dug deep enough.
They came from Washington attorney Christopher Horner, iconic watchdog famous for using theFreedom of Information Act to expose EPA’s skullduggery – including former administrator Lisa Jackson‘s false email identity, “Richard Windsor.”
Horner is now the go-to guy “for EPA employee informal whistleblowers who provide public records the agency prefers not see the light of day,” as he told me.
The key letter, date-stamped March 4, 2013, shows Sen. David Vitter, R-La., and Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, warning then-assistant EPA administrator Gina McCarthy that they had investigated and knew about the horrifying quandary that now faces all of America: EPA’s glittering promise that its clean air rules will generate $2 trillion in benefits through 2020 and its pledge that benefits will exceed costs by a ratio of 30-to-1 are flat lies.
We’re not going to get those benefits and we’re paying dearly to be cheated – time after time. EPA has used its overstatement trick more than 30 times to betray the public trust with expensive and onerous new regulations.
How do I know that? One of the Horner documents was “EPA’s Playbook Unveiled: A Story of Fraud, Deceit, and Secret Science.” It’s a 67-page staff report of the Senate Environment and Public Works committee’s Republican members that traced the exponential growth of the agency’s power over the American economy – EPA using bald-faced lies.
EPA convict John Beale became the master of deception because his best friend Robert Brenner, the Clinton administration’s head of EPA’s Office of Policy, Analysis, and Review, hired him – during the tenure of Carol Browner, Al Gore‘s former Senate staffer, as EPA administrator – with a high salary and no qualifications beyond unscrupulous scheming.
