Hugh Hewitt: The Last Defender of Scamalot

In this touching story we see Hugh Hewitt -- the Cyborg Sent from the Future to Destroy America -- struggling to sort-of mimic certain human emotions.  Specifically, Mr. Hewitt has evidenced a tiny soft spot in his cardiac-simulation module for the most cartoonishly corrupt person in America.

Scott Pruitt is a good friend and a very good man, caricatured by left and MSM. I hope he sets to work on a memoir ASAP and deals out a tenth of what he took. He’s a man of great faith and perseverance so he probably won’t, but the attacks on his family were unconscionable. https://t.co/Ob69m6fctg

Engineers at the advanced-research lab which studies Mr. Hewitt are not sure whether this sudden flicker of human-seeming "feelings" were because Mr. Pruitt was doing such such a bang-up job of advancing Mr. Hewitt's prime directive (Destroy America) --

76 Environmental Rules on the Way Out Under Trump

-- or because Mr. Pruitt gave Mr. Hewitt's kid a job.  From Media Matters,04/03/18:

Scott Pruitt hired Hugh Hewitt's son, James Hewitt, as a press secretary at the EPA by exploiting a loophole in the Safe Drinking Water Act -- a move that ethics experts have criticized, according to The Washington Post. Pruitt used this same loophole to make other hires, and to give raises to two aides against the wishes of the White House. Hewitt's son previously worked at Dezenhall Resources Ltd., a public relations firm that has run campaigns attacking environmental groups including Greenpeace. Hugh Hewitt mounted another defense of Pruitt on his radio show on April 4, dismissing the scandals surrounding the EPA chief as "nonsense."

Either way, we can all take comfort in the fact that Mr. Hewitt is such an painfully hollow shamble of brazen Republican toadyism that he will never be without a job in the Beltway media for long.

Behold, a Tip Jar!
