    Far-left radicals will support anything as long it benefits a Democratic politician. Thanks for the laughs and enjoy the next 5 years of Trump.

    How have the Trump children benefit financially? Did they get a job at a company in a foreign country to whom we sent a BILLION dollars, like Hunter Biden did?

    Maybe he did cuss at her. So what? I'm certainly not going to take her word for it. After all, she's a far-left, partisan hack. And we know any in the far-left are serial liars.

    No thanks. You made the implication. Is the reader supposed to go on a research mission to back up your claim?

    Saying that it isn't surprising that someone from the Trump administration got into an argument with a liberal media hack is not "immediately and unfailingly" defending anyone. I only commented that it isn't a surprise.

    Pompeo went on the show to talk about Iran. The NPR employee changed the subject to Ukraine. Pompeo said he didn't want to talk about Ukraine; he was there to talk about Iran. She kept pressing him on Ukraine including pecking questions about Yovanovitch. He ended the interview.

    Not surprised if he blew up at her in private immediately afterward, including cursing or whatever. At that point it is "He said, she said," so I don't find whatever conversation took place in private after the interview to be particularly surprising, interesting....or newsworthy.

    Isn't it surprising how the " Third String " surrounding Trump has the same demeanor and character as Trump ?

    These Yes Men are why this administration is so far the rails ..........

    The NPR reporter is a radical, left-wing hack and a serial liar. Pompeo should have known better than to think a leftist would tell the truth or keep their word.

    Isn't it "surprising" that Joe Biden has the same demeanor and character as Trump when asked questions he doesn't like? (I'd say, "No it's not.") Old Joe has blown up at an Iowa farmer and at every reporter who questions him about Ukraine this year.

    People who make it to top-level politics have strong personalities. Journalists who make it to the most influential media organizations have strong personalities. Sometimes they clash. It's not earth-shattering news. It's much closer to a nothing burger than to anything remarkable.

    That is a totally fabricated narrative that bears no relationship to the truth.

    Amusing statement since you blindly believe her without a shred of evidence to back you.

    Why beat a dead horse? Hillary has been tried, investigated, examined, and scrutinized like a nasty virus under an electron microscope and declared "not guilty." How much more time should we spend on this dry well? When is enough, enough. The only people that give two hoots about Hillary or Bill are people stuck in some sort of time warp. They're gone, done, finito, and a messy part of history. Who, in their right mind wants to hear about the Clinton's anymore?
    There's nothing to learn there that hasn't already been learned ad nauseam. They're questionable people that lie a lot and are basically politicians. Did Dems deserve to lose win 2016? You betcha. So, let it go and move on to productive endeavors. I mean - damn!

    That is because they are Destroying relations, honesty, integrity around the world for more power to their regime He is one step away from being HITLER. In 1932 Hitler was not murdering Jews, he was talking about making his country and the people GREAT AGAIN. All thru Lies and Propaganda, then he killed off anyone that may have been a threat. As if Trump went ahead and murdered Democrats and independents now. The Guy and all involved with him are a Menace. Bad people and because they are white, the white hard working boomers support him. Most from the Northeast DONT, they know he is a crook!

    I read her statement...

    I read his statement...

    I've seen him in action in 2019

    I put my common sense in play and the needle swings towards her... it's not blind belief...

    Blind belief is believing Trump's lawyers when they say no evidence was produced in the trial.

    So still no evidence other than your belief in her over him.

    Thanks for confirming.

    Well, there is evidence, but little of it direct...

    1. Pompeo admits there was a "post interview conversation"
    2. By mentioning Ukraine and 'Bangladesh', he essentially confirms there was some sort of map context, which also backs up some of her story.
    3. Pompeo denies none of the rest of her account. Just a typical 'Everybody is mean to us' claim...

    You guys and your "evidence" claims are hysterical, BTW... evidence comes in many different varieties..

    Great points.

    Also, in terms of "Integrity" and "Believability", Kelly is Light-Years ahead of a Pathologically-Lying Trump Stooge.

    ^So, there's that.:salute:

    Which no one denies. Try again.

    Pure supposition and opinion nothing more.

    Which is patently false since he has claimed she lied setting up the interview and lied about the post interview conversation being off the record.

    There is also a dispute that she was able to find Ukraine on the map instead of Bangladesh

    Did you even read the article at all?

    Says the guy who has nothing but supposition and opinion to back you up.

    I never once said I believed Pompeo over her since there isn't enough evidence either way but in your emotional state I'm not surprised you missed it.
