Trey Glenn, the regional EPA administrator that was indicted for ethics violations in Alabama, has officially resigned.

Al.com reported:

Glenn submitted a letter of resignation dated Nov. 18 to acting EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler, citing his intention to resign as a result of what he called “unfounded charges levied against me that I must and will fight.”

“Stepping down now, I hope removes any distraction from you and all the great people who work at EPA as you carry out the Agency’s mission,” Glenn wrote in the resignation letter which was provided to AL.com.

“I intend to focus on my family, fight these unfounded accusations and ultimately clear my name,” Glenn wrote. The full letter is embedded below.

Trey Glenn Should Have Never Been Appointed

In no other administration would someone like Trey Glenn have been appointed to oversee the EPA administrator for the entire Southern United States. Character, or the lack of, start at the top. There hasn’t been a presidential administration in decades that has valued honesty, integrity, and character as little as Donald Trump.

The government is being run by literal criminals. The President Of The United States has been connected to multiple felonies. Trey Glenn isn’t a bad apple. He is a representative sample of the entire barrel, and a poster child for why the entire Trump administration has got to go.
