Consultant who called Trump an 'environmental hero' to get environmental job in new administration

President-elect Donald Trump announced more hires Friday for his new administration, including tapping his business’ longtime environmental consultant for an adviser role.

Ed Russo, who served as an environmental consultant to the Trump Organization and in 2016 wrote the book “Donald J. Trump: An Environmental Hero,” will lead Trump’s Environmental Advisory Task Force.

Trump said in a statement that Russo will advise on “initiatives to create great jobs and protect our natural resources, by following my policy of CLEAN AIR and CLEAN WATER.”

“Together, we will achieve American Energy DOMINANCE, rebuild our Economy, and DRILL, BABY, DRILL,” Trump wrote.

We have galvanized pipes dipped in zinc dating back to 1914. The City Manager, Mayor, and Council Know About this. We need grant money to remove the Lead Pipes. 95% of the town has this type.
