Secretary of State Mike Pompeo got testy with reporters who pressed him for answers on allegations that Russia offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for murdered American and NATO soldiers in Afghanistan.
Pompeo is such a disaster.
What a wanker.
Cheney Thornberry and Sasse have all expressed outrage, now what are they going to do about it. I will wait.
Shorter Pompeo: “How dare you criticize us for something you know we did (or didn’t do)?” Disgusting.
“I’m not going to further jeopardize intelligence capabilities,” he responded. “I’m not going to put at risk the young men and women of Afghanistan in the same way that some news organizations have done. I just simply won’t engage in that, Kylie. It’s inappropriate, it is dangerous, and you ought not be part of that.”
Roast this pig. I’m sick and tired of his “bristling” when his treachery is revealed. He’s got to go away when Barr does. He knows everything.
Pompeo should never ever be in government again. Someone needs to remind his Benghazi rage.
because we have work that is important to keep our soldiers safe and I’m not going to allow you to lay down questions with facts that are asserted and say oh, he didn’t refute what I said in my question, therefore it must be true,” he said. “I’m not going to go down that path with you.”
*looks around the room for something to destroy with a ball bat…
OT…
Friend of mine here in NYC got out of a bad lease at the old NYT building in Times Square because the building was foreclosed on.
And the foreclosed-upon owner? Jared Kushner…
Mike Pompeo is a bully and a liar. Just like the man he voluntarily works for. So much loathsome filth in one administration.
Shut up, you lying Trump-tool. You don’t “jeopardize intelligence capabilities“ by answering legitimate questions, and the press certainly doesn’t do so by asking them. You and Trump continue to try to hide behind the intelligence community and our troops while you both continue to betray them.
Here’s my fear. In the first hundred days of the Biden administration, there will be so much to do to bring this country back to a functioning level, that AG Harris will not prosecute any of these tools. The message will be, as it was with the financial crisis in 2009, look forward, not backward. And then we will have set up a new level of criminality when the next Republican, say, Alex Jones, slithers into office in 2028.
Is the origin of the name “Pompeo” Italian for fat, pig-headed, and arrogant? Apologies to pigs, BTW…
So much for a guy that graduated on top of his West Point class…
A lot of people are saying that Pompeo, Esper and Milley got commissions from the huuge kickbacks that President Skanky Turdface, First Lady Iwanker and her Cuck Kushner got from Putin and Russian intelligence for the bounties on American soldiers. Follow the money.
Shorter Pompeo: It’s more important to protect Trump than the troops and that’s what I’m gonna do.
I’m not going to further jeopardize intelligence capabilities,…
President Donald J Trump does this every time he talks on the phone with Putin. What a sorry excuse for a POTUS and Secretary of State.
Recently?
West Point is not sending us their best.
Just gonna leave this here…
Funny how graduating top-of-class from West Point has not meant the same since this became known…
