being held in contempt of congress being charged with obstruction of justice. mike pompeo is a great example of the perils of a rise. from being a member of congress to director of cia to the secretary of state. and done that largely unscathed until recently. there's really two key reasons he's done that. it's because of his fierce loyalty to the president. on that call, after he admitted hefts on the call, he quickly transitioned to say the call was all about digging into into corruption. so that's the first reason. the second reason is he has been able to dodge and stay out of the spotlight and dodge bullets. until recently that worked. i think now he's lost control of the narrative and he'll be under scrutiny as this plays out. that will play out in front of congress. >> i have things i want to read.
