Pompeo Disrespecting Foreign Service Officers With Ukraine Scandal | The Last Word | MSNBC

  1. Pompeo is insane, he believes in the Rapture and allows that to influence his policy decisions.
    When you let religion influence your actions those actions are invariably done for the wrong reasons.

    1. If you look at the actions of Jesus, how were they invariably wrong? He never lied, he gave to the poor, he never enriched himself, he healed the sick, he sacrificed his life. What was the wrong part again?

    2. @Robyn Andrews haha reread what Jesus stood for – analyse his deep thoughts about people he is “suppose to save” and then comment here again.

  2. Trump wants to be Dear Leader, he wants to lock up political opponents, he wants to be worshipped.
    The GOP is fine with that as long as he doesn’t sick his base and Fox news on them.
    Spiineless GOP who choose their jobs and party over country.

    1. 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000% agreed!!!!!

    1. @mister boolord What??? Low blow bro! What did I say that was condescending??? I’m condescending because I said satan is a deceiver and want to destroy us? Or because I said God love us, His creation no matter what? So im delusional because I been exposed to something you have not been exposed to. Go tell the millions of people around the world (atheist included) that had the same experiences I had that they are delusional. No disrespect but you are the one being condescending calling me delusional and others here psychotic just cause they don’t share your world view. At what point did I disrespect you or told you that you needed to believe what I believe. I simply clarified to you what my understanding is of the bible and the infinite love God has for us human beings. Come on my brother! Low blow bro!

    2. @Joy Phillips There is NO Satan. .. I’ve never seen him…nobody I know has ever seen him.. do you know anyone who has ever seen him..? I saw someone on TV who thought that he saw Satan.. but he was in a mental institution… so nope…nobody is likely conversing with Satan, and those who think he is real enough to coluede with…should possibly think about that mental institution. .

    3. @mister boolord Good burn there… it’s quite surprising how obviously intelligent people “believe ” the fairy tale. I find it puzzling…I have a good friend that I debate this topic with continuously. .. it’s baffling. . This is the only Topic that he refuses to apply logic or common sense… how is that even possible…? I suppose it could be the same as the belief in the new hundred or more made up genders…spoke to a…not sure..none binary who just had a “they be…or theyby” Where does this crazy come from? I don’t get it.

    4. @NOYB donkno Yes, you and the “Super intelectuals” here are right and us 2.3 BILLION Christian’s are wrong. So us “inferior” people we are going to continue spreading a message of HOPE ( The Gospel of Jesus), to the Terminally ill, to those battling with Depression, to those bound in Addictions, to those battling with Suicidal Thoughts, to those battling with Fear, Anxiety, and to the Broken Hearted and Destitute all around the world while you “superior intellectuals” can enjoy your perfect lives. Sounds good?

      After all it shouldn’t be that complicated for such amazing minds to understand something called “Freedom of Religion ” right?

  3. There is no defence, only the wilfully ignorant and stupid keep defending the corrupt faux emperor…quite a few are set to be on the wrong side of history and be forever dishonored.

  4. Trump has used American tax money to finance his re-election campaign. Who else has the power to do this? He has been caught with his hands in the cookie pot. It is clear as day

    1. NOYB donkno not what I think or assume, well every true major media company has come out with the same conclusion documents memos have been released saying the same. People with true “perfect” credibility has spoken on the subject and Djackass Drumpf is guilty and should get some “perfect” handcuffs made to make sure his tiny hands don’t slip through the rings! Can you disprove any of this? Next Wednesday sit and listen carefully and keep and open mind not clogged up by your conspiracy theories and let the truth set you free. People who follow the orange blob should be arrested alongside Drumpf because y’all should be considered a detriment to society! Maybe put y’all in cages like y’all have the migrants and see how y’all like it!

    2. @PlumbBob Constructionpants Interesting, I agree everything you just stated… other than the name you called me.. but to hurl the label facist at people who have a difference of opinion doesn’t suit the responce you just gave. Meaning, you seem to have a reasonable viewpoint of your own, so why taint it with the unwarranted name calling. Doesn’t seem to suit you buy this response…well..other than the name you hurled at me that is. Regardless..it surprises me that you do not agree with what I posted…

  5. The USA is now a client state, easily manipulated and controlled by a master politician – Vladimir Putin.

    1. I don’t know about a master politician, a master KGB agent and killing all who threaten his throne. Super rich also, probably the richest man on Earth but hides it well.

    2. Jay e I think if his tax returns showed he was ultra rich he would release them because that is what would come naturally to a narcissist. I think following the money will show he’s in debt to his eyeballs to many international banks and totally corrupt.

  6. The nerve of this bloated clown to show his lying face when he ignores subpoenas! Nothing more than a common criminal! I despise what these Republicans have done to our country. They’re willing to sell their souls for power and a buck. They’re an embarrassing disgrace!

    1. I never had a thing against the Rep House reps, they were, having lost control of the House, inconsequential after all. But with their smarmy arrogance, after seeing that recently I now despise the very sight of every last one of them. Their fellow Republican Congressmen in the Senate will also lose control there in Nov 2020, (The public will be repulsed by their sickening toadyism in a possible Senate Impeachment case). If not enough Rep seats will still be lost.

      When the loss of the Senate to the Dems is seen by the public to be an eventuality, enough will not bother voting for a Republican Presidential candidate. The Republicans are stuffed. Trump will have lost the House, Senate & Presidency all within 4 years (or effectively even less), quicker even than Obama who took 2 years to lose the House, 6 years to lose the Senate and 8 years to lose the Presidency.

      So History will show Trump to be seen as less of a man than even Obama was. More than the EGO of Trump can bear, he’ll be wrecked, it’ll be him that wanders off crying and whimpering into the shadows.

    2. @David Higgins you’re a lot more forgiving than me. My war with the elephants began when they blocked or corrupted basically everything our last president tried to implement that might help us AND THEN go around calling him the worst ever/do nothing president etc… Not an Obama fanboy, in fact there were times I was railing against him, but I hate liars.

  7. Well, it wouldn’t be the first time for pompeo . It took him two weeks to come clean on him listening in on the “phone call”

    1. Darlene Hawkins…Secretive servers and secret backchannel communications are being used by Kushner who did NOT pass security clearance…SPIES…& LIES

  8. mike knows he’s lying and that’s what makes him so despicable his. hubris makes him believe he’s immune to consequences. Not to mention the belittling tone he takes when he’s lying direct;y to the face of the country!

  9. Pompeo is acting like Trump’s puppet. It is ashame to claim that he is a West Point graduate. He and Barr both act like the managers of the Trump Hotels.

    1. @sk8queen
      *OATH, PLEDGES, COMMITTMENT Towards One Objective And Orders To Make Such Commitment.
      *That’s WHY SCHOOLS ATTENDED(requirements achieved to be admitted), SERVICE TO COUNTRY(veterans are SEPARATED FROM SERVICE! Never Discharged!)
      *THE OATHS TAKEN AT EVERY LEVEL ARE FOR LIFE!*

    2. @Richard Green how was that stupid can you say why it is, do you have an opinion you can articulate other than just stupid.

    1. FYI Witness Tampering carries a potential prison sentence of up to 20 years!
      Lying to Congress carries a potential prison sentence of up to 5 years per count.

      Obstruction of Justice carries a potential prison sentence of up to 5 years per count.

      Yesterday in the Roger Stone trial the prosecutor stated Donald Trump’s written testimony in Mueller Investigation was full of lies and they have evidence to support this.

      If any of you are on Twitter or are constituents of Republican Representatives who are committing these crimes right now for Trump, especially the ones who are on congressional oversight committees or are to be Senate jurors in this Impeachment, I implore you to copy and forward this post to each one you know of. Even if Barr does not prosecute them any other AG may file their own lawsuit to hold them accountable. They are not covered under the presidential DOJ “Memo” Lock up Pompeo and Bill Barr. Both are obstructing justice,, abusing powers of office and committing National Security issues. Whatever happened to the Patriot Act? Doesn’t that give the FBI or NSA the right to listen to their phonecalls and all that and even allow them to be questioned and detained without a lawyer in the name of National Security? What was in that act anyway? haven’t heard anything about that since Bush? Anyone know?

    1. @Dicky Jones
      Ah, here you are again spewing your lies and misinformation! You know what I like best about this internet thingy? For generations, the proof of your belligerent ignorance of the truth, and your insistence to spread known lies will remain here, so your descendants will have no trouble in identifying the Alt Right rabid squirrel running amok in the family tree!

    1. @K H Leave him alone!!! Makes me laugh at his crying all over the place. Celebrate about Matt Bevin being OUT.

    1. @Tulips Roses You need to learn about the “christian dominionism” movement that the Republican politicians have adopted. They have been running “Project Blitz” to promote a christian theocratic state which undermines our Constitution and Bill of Rights. An integral part of it has been those ridiculous anti-choice bills promoted by Republican state legislatures in southern states. This country was established as a secular nation with freedom to believe or not as one chooses and that the government was to be neutral on religion and make no laws based on any religion. Republicans have crossed the line on that vital part of our Constitution across the board.

    2. When the trial does take place the Dems have their ducks in a row, but GOP doesn’t have ANY! And Dems should ask them to show the original transcript since Trump keeps saying “read the transcripts.”

    1. agf1700 exactly. If we objectively look at what’s going on right now through the lens of history, it is 100% clear that America and the rest of the world will view Trump as the first dictator of America. It’s also clear that the MAGA movement and their Red Hat wearers is this generation’s Fascist white supremacist takeover of our country.

    2. @agf1700 don’t bother with him, he really doesn’t have anything to say – a few jabs at what we all are talking about but I have read about three of his comments he really doesn’t say anything about the issue just pokes fun at his superiors.

    3. @Zachary Fluke People were forewarned though as in look up Mussolini. They knew better than those “learned” who were castigated for their knowledge. Scary….. Next.

  10. Three very knowlegable commentators who stayed exactly on point and didnt waste words. They politely disemboweled the Republicans, Pompeo and Trump without any exaggeration or insults – a class act.

    1. @O.E E Not if they’re Prosperity Doctrine Heretics who completely ignore the Teachings of Jesus, especially the Sermon on the Mount , Matthew 5-7.
