Trumps minions are willing to go pretty far to support his lies. But that doesnt always extend to doing so under oath, as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo showed Wednesday.
At a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) pressed Pompeo about Trumps latest unhinged Twitter declarations.
He said there is a criminal deep state. And as you know, Representative Nunes has said hes also going to investigate the state department, Lieu said. Do you believe there is a criminal deep state at the State Department?
Pompeo said he hadnt seen the comments, but he was clear as to his thoughts on the matter.
I dont believe there is a deep state at the State Department, he stated. And when Lieu asked if Pompeo, a former CIA director, believed his colleagues at that agency were part of the criminal deep state, the secretary again repudiated the notion.
