Newly released documents have revealed a paper trail connecting Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Trump's former personal assistant in an alleged smear campaign against a former ambassador to Ukraine.

The documents were released by the State Department Friday night following a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by ethics watchdog American Oversight. The 100-page report shows emails linking Giuliani to Pompeo and Trump through his former assistant, Madeleine Westerhout, who served as the former Director of Oval Office Operations.

"If you look at these documents, you can understand why Mike Pompeo wouldn't want Congress to have them, and why Congress has been complaining for the last two weeks that they haven't received, I believe, the quote is, 'a single scrap of paper from Mike Pompeo,'" American Oversight Executive Director Austin Evers told MSNBC in an interview.

1. Raised on the teats of the Koch bros,

a smart but slimey creep who has no idea what honesty means or it's value. We MUST keep him far away from office, especially the Presidency.

2. It is all going to come out

No one in the Biden administration is going to shield these documents from FOIA requests.

9. Good. nt

3. Pompeo is a dangerous one, right up there with Bannon,

IMO. A dirty trickster, insulated just enough to travel freely.

5. He's a Dominionist.

He failed to bring about the Rapture during his term. Wah wah.

6. No wonder he found

Gawd!

That is all

7. Okay

Will there be any price to pay?

Sure, a few patsies served time

But everyone else in that corrupt administration is going to come out on the other side just fine. They’ll fundraise off it or get RW sinecures. They’ll be shunned by polite society, and their eventual obituaries, and history, will be unkind. But until then they will continue to be hailed as heroes among the great unwashed.

8. As bad as that is

what would be even worse is if they run for office and enough ignorant dolts vote for them that they slime their way back into government. No more fascists!

[FakeNoose]

10. Exactly! Their slimy political careers end NOW

If they go to prison later, well that's icing on the cake.

11. We all know about Rudy. More than we ever wanted to, but probably still less than we need to.

Pompeo doesn't have such a documented history, but I'll repeat what I said about him day before yesterday. Might have been yesterday. The chronology may be lost in the dim reaches of time, but I totally remember the posts.

Looks like a thug. Sounds like a thug. Acts like a thug.

My money is going on "Pompeo is a thug," if anyone is offering to take bets.
