The House and Senate Intelligence Committees will be briefed Wednesday by the State Department Inspector General on potential retaliation against State Department witnesses for cooperating with Congress, PBS and Reuters reported.
Unsurprising.
Retaliation. It figures.
Wonder if a horse’s head under the covers was one of the options.
Pompeo accusing the Dems of being bullies??? That is rich!!!
Goebbels at his best right here.
There will be multiple calls for Pompeo to resign over this.
Will he be able to weather the storm?
Good thing Nancy & Adam are nothing if not masters of The Corbomite Maneuver!
So Pompeo is bullying State Department Employees who will testify before Congress concerning their knowledge of Trump’s use of the State Department to advance his 2020 campaign. Jesus H. Christ, Nixon wasn’t this bad.
The headline tomorrow will be “Former State IG Briefed Panels…”
We will be hearing about Pompeo’s resignation any day now.
Pompeo is the Spiro Agnew of Richard Nixons.
Congress is in a brief recess except for the House Intel Committee. Hope they all get back in time.
Pompeo’s own private Rapture is eminent.
“But of the day and hour, he knoweth not…”
Talk about your heavy lift!
Oh, yes, he was.
Well, I doubt very much he’ll resign unless Trump asks him to and I don’t see that happening. I’m all for making life for this cowardly bully as miserable as possible for as long as possible.
Yes he was. He tried to strong arm the IRS into giving him his perceived opponents’ tax returns.
WASHINGTON, June 13 1974—The House Judiciary Committee reportedly heard extensive evidence today of efforts by White House officials to use the Internal Revenue Service for President Nixon’s political benefit.
Committee members said that in most instances the Revenue Service had refused to cooperate with the White House aides. And, while the members said that there was no evidence showing that Mr. Nixon had ordered the manipulation of the I.R.S., they reported that they had been presented with documents and testimony indicating that Mr. Nixon had been aware of what his assistants were doing.
At the close of the day, Representative Peter W. Rodino Jr. the committee chairman, Said that the questions raised had gone “to the heart of whether there have been serious abuses of power by the President or members of his official family.”
At least Spiro Agnew extorted real money bribes. Pompeo is doing this shit out of his believe that Trump is the second coming of Buddy Jesus in the End Times/Rapture daydream that is his evangelical life.
Is it really true that Pompeo was first in his West Point Class? If so, I have lost all regard for West Point as an institution. Pompeo gives Trump a run for the title "dumbest man in the country. "
You don’t have to lift for the direction Pompeo is going. Just a hard push to get him going downhill.
It’ll be at least a four archangel job. Although Pompeo might be surprised at the last minute change of destination.
