Pompeo Ordered State Dept. Officials To Invent Reason For His Emergency Declaration In Saudi Arms Sale

Lying is the official executive branch policy for the United States of America.

I am old enough to remember how Republicans went on ad nauseam about how Bill Clinton’s lies about his sex life set a bad example for our children.

Of course we all know the parent’s example is what sticks in their minds.

Congress and Obama are just as much to blame as anyone else for the Saudi/Yemen war. He helped to finance their war and encouraged it despite speakig about his distaste for regional conflicts. Some reality on that score:

denies that the watchdog was fired out of retaliation for the investigation. Pompeo also claims that he was unaware of the nature of watchdog’s probe.

Sadly, I am unconvinced that Biden will do this, he is living in the past and still thinks there are honorable people in the GOP.

I’m not sure how that changes what Pompeo did. Seems to be a grand scale “whataboutism”…In any case the errors of the Obama Administration are now known. That bit you cite was written in 2016. So why is the good Christian Pompeo continuing what we know is a past evil?

The depths of arrogant depravity is astonishingly transparent…white male supremacy on full display from imbeciles, killers, and obese blatant old fools and liars.

I’m not surprised by this, no one should be surprised by this. Most people lie to themselves all the time, but they only have themselves to concoct the justification. It’s more shocking when you find out that PompousAss didn’t/doesn’t have the intellect to come up with a reason(s) all on his own.

The latter can’t be accomplished without the former being done. If we don’t prosecute them for their crimes, they will continue to hinder our ability to rebuild the country so that they can regain power.

I’m sure. When a deal goes down someone in the private sector makes a bunch of money. They reward the person in the public sector that set the deal up with some of that money in the form of a campaign donation.
