Despite What He Told Congress, Pruitt Used Two Govt Email Addresses [1]

"Five months after first appearing in front of Congress in pursuit of the job of Environmental Protection Agency administrator, Scott Pruitt may need to clarify his congressional testimony yet again.

Pruitt appears to have used two government email addresses while serving as attorney general of Oklahoma — despite telling the Senate that he used only one government email address during his time in that office.

Pruitt is not the only member of President Trump’s Cabinet to be probed for inconsistencies in their confirmation testimony. On Wednesday, Attorney General Jeff Sessions was pressed by Democratic senators to explain why he claimed to have never met with a Russian official during the presidential campaign."
