I didnt set a red line, the world set a red line. The world set a red line when governments representing 98 of the worlds population said the use of chemical weapons are abhorre abhorrent. Stuart oh, the tea party becky gerrittson is here. Good to be here. Stuart you heard what the president said about the red line and the rest of it. Here is your chance, pass judgment on this. I think this president is quick to blame anyone, but his own administration for whats going on. Before he took office its okay to blame the previous president. Hes been blaming bush, the irs scandal, nsa, hes blaming everyone else. Stuart youre the lady who was the standout, star witness, if you like, at the hearings for the irs because your Tea Party Organization was shut out, it was intimidated and i think since then, this scandal has been largely buried by other headlines. Give me an update on whats happened to you since you were the star witness there . Well, we filed a lawsuit with the american law and just
Next week and its not goings to be easy. And trump factor shakes up the alabama race. This race is not me against the president or the vice president. Its me against Luther Strange.

Pruitt had been under a cloud of scandals for months, constantly facing questions about his security detail, pricey first class travel and cozy relationships with lobbyists. Pruitt was back in the headlines just this week. A cnn report revealing he and his aides kept secret calendars to hide contentious meetings.
