begooode Posted May 18, 2020 Report Share Posted May 18, 2020 LOFL, Pompeo so doesn't care about his accountability or that of the administration. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told The Washington Post on Monday that he had recommended that State Department Inspector General Steve Linick be fired because the independent watchdog was "undermining" the department and wasn't performing in a way that the top US diplomat wanted him to. "I went to the President and made clear to him that Inspector General Linick wasn't performing a function in a way that we had tried to get him to, that was additive for the State Department, very consistent with what the statute says he's supposed to be doing," he said in an interview with the Post. "The kinds of activities he's supposed to undertake to make us better, to improve us." He did not go into details about what specifically displeased him about Linick's job performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know what Grasserly is trying to accomplish. He gave Trump until April 13th to explain the Atkinson firing, which Trump promptly ignored and then fired another IG.

It's got to be embarrassing to be in the Senate and see Trump do all this in the wide open. These Republicans make these types of comments occasionally to pretend they give a shit ChemEngr79, and tgo 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

begooode Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 4 reputable IGs fired in 6 weeks. Intent has been fairly sketchy. Last one — hey, I did Pompeo a solid. Banana fucking Republicans. OILERMAN, and ChemEngr79 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgo Posted May 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 I hope all the former Obama officials comply with the subpoenas and that the GOP spends days and days conducting hearings on #Obamagate (whatever the fuck that is). While they're actively pushing down coronavirus relief efforts and squashing more relief bills for Americans. I can't imagine anything that will piss off most Americans more than this.

At this point, Trump's base is a pretty small minority of Americans though. Trump's base may be retarded, but most of America is not stupid and can see right through the charades and can see what kind of person Trump is and what kind of party the Republicans are under his tenure.

Popular Post begooode Posted May 19, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) This kinda shit shows that this new GOP is not hostage to Trump. They are full on complicit in the specious investigations, feeding the echo chamber bullshit and amplify it, and doing whatever is necessary to suppress the majority.
