Why a teacher carried her 2-year-old up to Scott Pruitt’s restaurant table and asked him to resign

By Avi Selk July 3 Email the author

We can only speculate what Scott Pruitt thinks about when he eats lunch. But he looked relaxed at his table at Teaism on Monday afternoon — exactly 500 days into his directorship of the Environmental Protection Agency; five days after the agency’s top ethics official recommended widening an investigation into accusations that he misused his power; about five hours before The Washington Post reported that Pruitt once asked a subordinate to help find his wife a job; and less than five minutes before Kristin Mink wiped a smile off his face.

A few tables from the EPA administrator, Mink was wrangling her 2-year-old into his seat while she waited for her pancake.

The 33-year-old teacher was spending the day showing out-of-town relatives around the muggy heart of Washington, and she might not have even noticed the EPA administrator had her husband not pointed him out.
