Watchdog Told Not to Probe Saudi Arms Sales

[RandySF]

“The former State Department internal watchdog fired by President Trump told lawmakers that a senior department official discouraged him from probing U.S. arms sales to Gulf states before his ouster last month,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

Aaron Blake: “Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has claimed that his recommendation to fire an inspector general who was investigating him couldn’t possibly have been retaliatory, because he did not even know about the investigation. But newly revealed testimony from the inspector general, Steve Linick, casts more serious doubt on that already dubious claim.”
