Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is under investigation for potentially violating a federal law that forbids federal employees from engaging in political activity while on duty or inside federal buildings over his address to the GOP convention in August

The Office of the Special Counsel, an independent federal investigative agency, launched a probe into Pompeo's speech to the Republican National Convention while on a taxpayer funded trip to Jerusalem on August 25, according to two House Democrats.

"As we get closer to both this year's election and his own inevitable return to electoral politics, Mike Pompeo has grown even more brazen in misusing the State Department and the taxpayer dollars that fund it as vehicles for the Administration's, and his own, political ambitions," the lawmakers said. The State Department did not return requests for comment.

Pompeo needs a Spanking

How about following up on the Tony Bubolinski interview that TuckerCarlson aired yesterday

framethetweet

They are lying on Biden family and you know it.

Good luck with that.

Trump's GOP nobody talks of deficit. Farmers and trumpers get billions, displaced population to get relieve of $600, postponed. You only hear of deficit when GOP is minority.

dont find fault on a good man and because Pompeo is a big help to ensure the security of the PHILIPPINES against CCP.

Trump minion could give a 🦉

Weak

BS

You Democrats in this feed are so full of rage and hate. Interesting that you don’t have the same opinions when it comes to the Biden or Clinton corruption. I mean they too are investigated but for actual crimes.

Trash News

many speculations about this guy..even more anomalies

Jury is back w the verdict

CNN never posts or says anything good about realDonaldTrump .. this is really sad and disappointing. Even when realDonaldTrump or his staff does anything commendable CNN finds a way to turn it around. Is it because he called you fake news?

There’s anither ine heading to jail.

Person. Man. Pompeo. Dimwit. Politician.

CNN sucks so bad I just 🙄 amd move on noonecares

Nice try asswipes

It’s called the Hatch Act

Lock him up !!!!!!!!!!!!

classic potus45 and his band of chaotic nitwits

Who is investigating him...Barr?

Hes just now being investigated?

Nooooo😱!?

👏👏👏👏

Let’s send Pompeo packing along with his boss. VOTE TRUMP OUT!!!

Time to move onto the Biden’s covering up sexual molestation of a minor

TrumpsThugs will be checking out Jan 20, 2021. GoodRiddance

That’s older than dirt story

They already did investigate Biden's. Nothing found

About time !!! VoteThemAllOut

It’s like a match to a bonfire now.

lockhimup

Lock him up!

MikeTheResister They don’t care. They will fire any inspector general, ignore any congressional subpoenas, or have Bill Barr put a stop to the investigation.

so they’ll investigate this but nothing else🙄

This act has meant nothing to Trump and his misfit toys .

He has violated more than this under trump administration. Just something else that has to be cleaned out! take out the trash

i lololol lnl i

haha

Another trump puppet dump trump

Can you also look into Prince Harry while your at it

He lied, cheated and stole besides blackmailed, bullied and assassinated!

When is CNN going to be investigated for being bullshit news!?

He will NOT FACE ANY CONSEQUENCES

Big deal. Biden needs to be investigated for being brainless.

蓬佩奥被从三方面调查,其一是他从耶路撒冷给RNC发表讲话的时间是否是上班时间。RNC举行在美国是下班时间,在耶路撒冷可能恰恰是上班时间。其二,蓬佩奥给RNC发表演讲时正在公务旅行,涉嫌利用公共资源进行党派活动。最后他是否参与推动解雇正在调查他的国务院检察长。只要三个中有一个成立,他就完了

Nothing will happen. There’s no one with cojones willing to do anything about this

Lock him up.

Another investigation that will go nowhere. I don’t understand why the Teflon don and his cronies continue to get away with this shit.

...and nothing will ever come of it...

Doesn’t matter

Mike Pompous...another Trump bootlicker and enabler.

So let’s get this straight! Biden’s son got tens of thousands from a crooked company from a crooked country while his father was VP who threatened to withhold money if a certain official that was investigating that crooked company didn’t get fired. Someone tell that’s not wrong!

That doesn’t surprise me Trump Sheep

What a crock of shit, like they're gonna do anything to him, everyone on that Administration has wiped their ass with the Hatch Act.

Another convict to be tried and jailed in 2021 SecPompeo

Federal employees should not be involved in political activities while on duty. That Should be the case for any employee! I wouldn’t want my employees to do anything but their job on my time and that goes for taxpayer paid employees !!

Lock him up

How can u investigate this? It's either he did or didn't.. He obviously did. His argument is based on Trump's approval of his speech which is enormously stupid because Trump doesn't know the laws any better than he knows about his job.

If the dems win the election I’m sure they’ll have plenty of time to look into all of these violations,it’s pay back time baby.

Whatever. Keep investigating. Bla bla bla

Looks like another photo has surfaced, obtained by Fox, figured you’d guys would try to bury story. Shady, shady.

Bye SecPompeo It wasn't nice knowing you! VoteThemAllOut

What a joke, only CNN would report a nonsense like this. Now, back to covid, covid, covid, covid, covid.....

Now do Hunter Biden Hunterbidenlaptop

WITCH HUNT!!!

Mitch got his back. He has nothing to worry about. Now, if he were a democrat, they'd be on him for years until they ruin his reputation. But, they probably would still let them off as well.

All the RepubliCons have ignored all of our norms, laws, and then lie about their constitutional stance. Truly sickening who they are.

Crap News Network cannot get anything right.Quit Spreading all your Bias leftist propaganda.

The investigation should’ve been started

Here's a hint, vote the GOP out, everyone, all of them BidenHarris DitchMitch2020 ResignTrump

This guys don't give 2 shits about you law.

Probably already been pardoned by Frump.

Dear Americans, During the time of Mr. Obama, the Democratic Party, with the help of the terrorist government of Iran, created ISIS to destroy the Middle East. The Democratic Party is corrupt and is destroying the American people.

Just the latest in the parade of arrogant, corrupt Cabinet members: Pruitt Price Flynn DeVos and now Pompeo, and last but not least is Trump, the most corrupt President in American history - by far!

Yeah, ok BFD. You highlight this but refuse to report on HunterBidensLaptop and the really awful things that need to be investigated.

Lock him up

Has that fat pig done anything right

How is this being 'investigated'? He did it, there is video. Zero money is required to investigate. Bring forth criminal charges.

'Potentially'?!?

The consequences being what? The same consequences Kamala will face for standing outside of a polling location harassing voters? That IS a crime by the way.

What about our US Military that when asked in a Overseas duty station then. Where you are at shouldn’t make it a issue . Kamala Harris over Weekend was actually at a Voting site in Ohio telling them in line “ Vote we need it “ intimidation by her

DavidGLarrabee1 He is capable of worst.

Can you spell pompous without Pompeo?

Good.

Look out Mike. Mr Barr is coming after you.

He even does this drama to Tanzania 🇹🇿 politics 🤡

Meanwhile Kamala Harris is yelling at voters in lines, isn’t that voter intimidation

He should be investigated for eating all of the falafel while in Jerusalem

Is it illegal is they never face any consequences from their actions?

Pompass needs to leave

This is the best they could come p with? He was on his own time. Good luck. Just wasting Tax payer money again

So who is conducting the investigation , Rudy ? Lindsey? This shit is not gonna stop until it’s voted out and even then it will be a fight! This is the last week of civility ! Just wait until next Wednesday !

Why don’t you mention that Biden should be under investigation for selling favors to the Chinese while VP.

Report the real news.

aedaw9i Well when you have a face like a slapped ass

That's all well and good. Is anyone actually going to do anything about it?

Hey Mike Pomp Get your resume out Polish it a little

Potentially They don’t even try to be discreet about it, they do it out in the open!!
