Pompeo Ordered State Dept. Officials To Invent Reason For His Emergency Declaration In Saudi Arms Sale

[Billiejeens]

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reportedly ordered officials at the State Department to come up with a rationale for his decision to declare an emergency last year that he used to bypass Congress in his billion-dollar arms sale to Saudi Arabia.

Four unnamed sources told CNN of Pompeo’s order, one of whom described the secretary of state’s attitude about the situation as “very Trumpian.”

“They seemed to have a game plan and it had to be justified,” a State department official said of the Trump administration’s push for the arms sale.

Will Trumpleheads believe this story? Of course not. They can't. They've spend years denying the truth. They're invested in it. Their whole belief system is based on it. If they begin to pull out bricks in the foundation the entire narrative collapses. So.............deny, deny, deny.

If Hillary Clinton had done this as Sec. of State, the Trumptards would be triggered right now instead of in deflection mode.

Well she did, and they were. And I didn't vote for her either. (voted for the pot smoker.LOL)

WTF?
"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo disregarded the advice of high-level officials at the State Department, Pentagon and within the intelligence community in invoking an emergency waiver last year to circumvent congressional review of billions of dollars in arms sales to the U.S. allies in the Persian Gulf region, according to two former administration officials and three congressional sources."

Senior officials advised against Trump emergency arms sales to Saudis

The dispute is now at the center of an inspector general's probe into whether the deal was conducted legally.
