Once again, a federal organization has done something wrong and no one is being held accountable. That’s just life as we’ve come to expect it in Obama’s America.

In this case, it was a federal lab which falsely manipulated environmental data. For two decades.

PJ Media reports:

Federal Environmental Lab Cooked the Books for Two Decades and No One Is Being Punished

A federal lab has been falsifying environmental data for two decades and officials refuse to name the criminals responsible or say whether they have been punished.

A United States Geological Survey (USGS) lab in Colorado was discovered to have manipulated data from 1996 to 2014 with “serious and far ranging” effects, according to a recent report by the Department of the Interior (DOI) Inspector General (IG).

The Daily Caller:

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) officials refuse to reveal who, if anyone, has been punished for nearly two decades of “disturbing” data manipulation.

Someone in the inorganic section of a USGS lab in Lakewood, Colorado manipulated data – some of which related to the environment – from 1996 to 2014, with “serious and far ranging” effects, the Department of the Interior (DOI) Inspector General (IG) recently reported.

The Energy Resources Program lab closed March 1, 2016 as a result of the bad data, but now agency officials won’t say who’s been punished or even if anybody has or will be.

“Due to the confidential nature of personnel actions, we cannot disclose any specific actions that have been taken,” USGS spokeswoman Anne-Berry Wade told The Daily Caller News Foundation. She also cited privacy laws and refused to name the officials involved.

Is anyone surprised?

If Hillary Clinton can get away with the things she’s done, why can’t anyone?
