Pompeo also called the allegations of his wrongdoing “all crazy stuff.”

“Let’s be clear: there are claims that this was for retaliation for some investigation that the inspector general’s office here was engaged in,” Mr. Pompeo said. “That’s patently false. I have no sense of what investigations were taking place inside the inspector general’s office; couldn’t possibly have retaliated.”
