He should check with Barr to dissemble better.
He better check with Barr on General Principles…

If he’s denying, he’s lying. If he hadn’t met with Rudy Colludey, he could just have said “No, I didn’t.”
Nice try with the “DNC talking points,” you fucking traitor.

So Mikee, are you stupid, or are you STUPID? Trump keeps touting him as a Harvard-educated genius who was first in his class at West Point. Is ANY of that true, because I don’t see how it could be unless palms were majorly greased by his dad. This guy is a fucking MORON, not just based on this, but based on literally everything I’ve heard come out of his fat ugly mouth. He’s not even a good liar, his body language a huge tell. If I were a poker player he’s the guy I’d want to play against.

For a guy who put HRC through the mill for 11 hours of Benghazi questioning under-oath, Pompeo sure doesn’t seem to know how to answer simple binary questions. Weird.

Why are you cruelly attacking this man? Won’t any of you think of all the poor Warsaw orphans?

He not only refused to say, he kept repeating the same meaningless talking point, which made it obvious. As @dannydorko noted yesterday, he looked like he was trying to Big Man intimidate the local reporter — who was having none of it — but he also had a deer in the headlights look as he realized this is his future now.
The Nashville NBC reporter did a great job. Hire her, network.

Which means, of course, that someone or possibly a few others know that he did meet with Giuliani and he is afraid it’s going to come out later on, so he just refuses to answer, acting like Amons’s question is an insult to his integrity, as if Mike Pompeo ever had any integrity to begin with.
And resorting to a lame dodge like “It sounds like you’re working at least in part for the Democratic National Committee.” just shows what a totally Trumpian POS Mike Pompeo is.

Can’t they just put them in chain-link cages? After all, it seems to be the American way!

Yes. It was like he was just giving her his “name, rank, and serial number” over and over again.

Despite his vaunted education, Pompeo just isn’t very smart.

Reporter: Secretary Pompeo, do you know the dates of your wife’s birthday and your wedding anniversary?
Pompeo: “It sounds like you’re working at least in part for the Democratic National Committee.”

So, “you’ve got your facts wrong” but he isn’t going to tell anyone what they really are, presumably because they are worse than the facts we already have.

It was a local reporter, so he was not apparently expecting to be confronted with actual journalism. (I hope that journalist caught the eye of some executives that can help her go places.)

Does he realize that can only mean she’s trying to extract a truth that would hurt him, and he knows it?

I think he has native intelligence, but his ego and his superiority complex are in charge.
Plus, lets not forget, he’s from fucking KANSAS. He’s lived in the bubble most of his life.

I just found a link to an outtake from his interview with a reporter:
Aside, can’t believe they’re both gone, from the same basic causes.
