Donald Trump’s stooge Mike Pompeo has a whole new problem
Donald Trump’s Secretary of State Mike Pompeo must have thought he was going to face no consequences for illegally firing the State Department Inspector General. But nearly a month later, the scandal just won’t go away – and it’s becoming more clear than ever that Pompeo will end up facing legal consequences if Trump loses the election.
Now Mike Pompeo is trying to rewrite history by suddenly claiming that the Inspector General was behaving “strange and erratic.” Fortunately, Congressman Ted Lieu was on hand to take out the trash:
Dear @SecPompeo: The IG was investigating your fake justification for bypassing Congress to sell arms to Saudi Arabia. That’s not acting strange and erratic, that’s doing his job. And it’s darn suspicious you now come up with this brand new excuse 4 weeks after you had him fired. https://t.co/M88onm1Pbt
