What Transcripts Say About Mike Pompeo's State Department | Morning Joe | MSNBC

    1. If that pos convinces you of anything that’s your problemm Anyone with a pulse and an IQ above 50 can see through his BS. This is the guy who defended MBS’ murdering of Kashoggi.

  1. Pompeo’s lack of support to his State Department employees displays his trajectory of not honoring our US Constitution and only honoring the POTUS. Shameful and disgusting. Also, whistleblowers have always been protected. Always.

    1. @Jeffrey Down I often wonder what trump has on all those who formally opposed him, who all sing his praises now? My only conclusion is that putin gave him dirt on all of them.

    2. Alan, I have thought about that a lot. Remember when Lindsey would occasionally say something about not being in total agreement with trump-way back when-but then, after a certain golf game he had with the Liar n Thief, he came back from that trip suddenly full of nothing but dripping praise and adulation? And continued to ramp it up.

  2. There isn’t ONE person in this … what are they … group of “people” that isn’t a pathologic liar. Not one.

    1. It was bound to happen. Trump demands loyalty to himself (over the national interest) and can’t tolerate people who disagree with him, no matter what the facts are. He therefore practically demands an administration full of people as dishonest and self-serving as himself.

    2. @MAM long ago, and far far away. Tks anyhow. Where were you 20 yrs ago 😅😎😎😎😎😎
      Just playin.

  3. pompeeo is not government material. He’s a disgrace to West Point and the US. Lying is his forte. And he wants to be a senator? Put him in his place Kentucy.

    1. Pompeo. He is going to a prison in Mexico. That is where Top Dotard is going to send him. Actually they both belong there without the US tax payer expense. Wow. More rice and beans for them both.

    2. @tnargskoorb1 right? I hate that-as if he is mocking us as fools–I despise him-get his stinkin’ butt back to the gutter he came from

  4. Remember folks, Pompeo is a Tea Party nut who was trying to rehabilitate his reputation but his true LYING self couldn’t be cleansed. He is a bold face LIAR!

    1. @WILLIAM SANNUTO Yeap, you people have dumbed it all down to where it’s like loving your hometown football team.

    1. An oath is meaningless to them. They’ll do what they do to accomplish their goals or to cover their atsrs.

  5. *When an honest man discovers he is mistaken after seeing Truth & Facts he will either cease being mistaken, or cease being honest!*
    *SHAME ON ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS..SHAME ON YOU!*
    *#ComplicitGOP** Vote them all into Political Extinction so we can truly MAGA!*
    🥳🇺🇸🥳

    1. FARMER BOB,
      ARREST ME I’M COMPLICIT , FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER , I VOTED FOR A REPUBLICAN, ! I AM HONEST, AND LOVE MY COUNTRY. IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE TO JUDGE ANYONE. IGAVE CLINTON AND OBAMA A CHANCE, AND I SAW, BUSINESS CLOSING, CRUMBLING INFRASTRUCTURE STAGNANT WAGES, INCREASED COST AND PEOPLE LOSING JOBS! DID NOT TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST🤓

    1. Jody Lowe : do you were duped by a bait and switch con man, it’s understandable, but don’t defend criminals, that’s lunacy! Believing Fox News! That’s lunacy ! Your choice…. belong to a cult of personality

  6. Who can trust Pompeo after he lied for MBS in The khashoggi Killing… then laughed and smiled as he met with MBS?

    1. His republican sycophants need to go. 67 votes in the Senate, I’d love to see Trump re-elected. Maybe they could then hang him for treason. No double jeopardy in impeachment.

    1. @Rich Woods : Pompeo finished #1 in his class at West Point, it’s a disgrace to the Academy what he’s become.

  7. The WH transcript says that Mike Pompeo’ state department is corrupt like everything and everyone Trump touches.

    1. No, it shows the heads of the departments are corrupt. He finally has his lackeys doing what he wanted from day 1, because the previous ones who stood up have been fired or quit.

      The fact the people working are coming forward shows the department isn’t corrupt, just those in charge

    2. Steve Bannon’s goal was to end administrative government. Trump is the ultimate tool and Pompeo is the dynamite in the State Department.

  8. The West Point honor code: “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

    U.S. Army officers explain that “will not lie” includes what Gen. Maxwell Taylor, a superintendent of West Point, called ‘quibbling, evasive statements, or the use of technicalities…’”

    Remember taking that oath, Mike?

    1. @Rich Woods : His character was set by the time he got to Harvard law. The best Harvard could have done was hone an already corrupt character.

  9. i would bet my life that the people at trumps rally wearing “read the transcript” t-shirts have, in fact, not read the transcript.

    1. Ashley. Tump supporters have not read the transcript.
      How can they, they are a bunch of morons. Can’t read or write, that’s why they voted for the Orange Maggot.
      They just went along with the cult leaders lies.
      Trump brainwashed them.
      Trump is evil.

  10. Pompeo nervously laughs every time he lies every interview. He is part of the corrupt administration and should be impeached and incarcerated with all the other conspirators including Dump.

  11. My immediate concern: Is the ambassador safe? This is a mobster style government driven by intimidation and corruption. And the GOP are enabling this style of government!!! This is shocking and scary!

    1. @CMaylene It is a nightmare for us witnessing this corruption, but I fear for the whistleblower’s life with the way trump and the GOP are attempting to expose their identity. I mean there are some crazy trump supporters who will do anything for this lawless president, even murder. trump and the GOP will then say it is a ‘mental illness’ problem and not take any responsibility for inciting criminal and murderous behaviour!

    2. Literally anyone who goes against Yrump isn’t safe. I honestly think that if he’s ever in a position, he would get the info on posters who’ve expressed negative opinions about him to teach us ” a lesson”.

    3. @v blackwell Because what you say is true, I find it sickening. I am waiting for the next hate crime because of trump and GOP’s hate-filled rhetoric!

    4. CMaylene, it is because in the past people lived through such administrations and learned the hard way why honor, integrity and the constitution are crucial to the USA. Others who are ignorant and sheltered thinking winning is the ultimate best thing.
