It is impossible to identify the one agency of Obama’s federal government that is most dishonest, destructive, and criminal in its activities. Certainly, the Justice Department comes to mind. But then what about the State Department? Interior with its many attempts to intimidate through its Bureau of Land Management. Certainly the IRS would be among the front runners.
But this story illustrates how the EPA most assuredly deserves a spot among the leaders for sheer dictatorial administration. It’s entire 7 year tenure under Obama is filled with dishonesty but under current direction of Gina McCarthy it seems to be making a last ditch effort to finish among the leaders of Obama’s despicable regime.

EPA Once Again Caught Breaking Laws To Push Green Agenda (excerpt)
This September, Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., produced detailed evidence that EPA administrator Regina McCarthy “committed perjury and made several false statements at multiple congressional hearings” regarding the rule and how it was drafted.
In October, a federal appeals court blocked the EPA from enforcing the rule because those suing to overturn it have “a substantial possibility of success” in winning their case.
Now the Government Accountability Office finds that in trying to get public approval for this massive new rule, the EPA illegally engaged in “covert propaganda” and lobbying efforts for the rule and broke the Antideficiency Act by spending money without authorization.
Normally, such a pattern of abuses would create something of a stir. But no one at the EPA is likely to pay a price for their misdeeds. They never do. As a result, the EPA has become far and away the most lawless and corrupt agency in the federal government.
Let’s look at just a few things it’s been engaged in over the past seven years:
