A House Democrat announced Tuesday that he is launching an investigation into Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s expected speech to the Republican National Convention, raising concerns that the move is an illegal violation of the Hatch Act and a breach of State Department regulations.

Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs panel's subcommittee on oversight and investigations, raised his concerns in a letter to Deputy Secretary of State Stephen Biegun and requested information on the secretary’s planned remarks.

Pompeo is coming under scrutiny for taking time during official diplomatic travel in the Middle East to record remarks to be played at the GOP convention Tuesday night.

The secretary is believed to have recorded remarks from Jerusalem, further drawing criticism that the nation’s top diplomat was using the Holy City as a prop for partisan and political gain.

Further confirmation that this is a war between the left and right wing of our wholly corrupt national security apparatus.

Waste of time and money for political virtue signaling.

I'll bet you are just fine with Trump giving his acceptance speech from the White House, too.

Well if we are supposed to quarantine during this pandemic and it is his current place of residence, why would there be a problem?

Pompeo a worthless POS. Ethically challenged to say the least! Corrupt swamp creature is more like it.

Ok with me if Trump gives his speech from the White House. And to make it fair he could even give it down in the basement ... with the nuclear codes “football” at his side.
