Still, Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs and Senate Foreign Relations Committees already had requested, through public letters, records of any open inspector-general matter dealing with the Office of the Secretary. The State Department did not respond to a request for comment.

This is so juvenile.

How many times has Nancy and others asked a staffer to get so and so on the phone or make a reservation?

The democRATs are under inquisition by the deep state. That is the difference. Maybe there should be turnabout in tactics.

No surprise here. It’s open season on anybody supporting President Trump. Been that way since primary season.

That’s why they are called “staff”.

“..a source familiar with the investigation.” Here we go again. First, no proof there is/was an investigation. Second, no proof there is/was a source. So typical of the corrupt media.

< s > Yeah, that Pompeo is really a mean guy who demeans staff by making them do menial tasks for him. < /s >

BTW, I was just wondering ... what was Tara Reade doing at Biden's gym?

Hillary Clinton put her surrogate daughter Huma Abedin on the State Dept payroll, to service her personal needs 24/7. Why wasn’t the IG interested in that?

If this is the sort of penny ante crap the IG was wasting his time on, no wonder he was fired.

Dianne Feinstein’s chauffer was a Chinese Spy. No one cared.

Didn’t Slick Willie have someone in a blue dress do a personal errand for him?

Ages ago, I had a female boss on one temp assignment ask me to get her a cup of coffee. I obliged, thinking nothing of it. Does this mean I can unmask her to the DNC?
