Pompeo in May:

"I don't get my ethics guidance from a man who was criminally prosecuted, a man for whom his Senate colleagues, bipartisan, basically said that he was taking bribes. That's not someone I look to for ethics guidance," Pompeo said. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo slammed Sen. Bob Menendez on Wednesday at a State Department press briefing after being questioned about the removal of the agency's inspector general.

 

Pompeo was asked about allegations that he recommended firing inspector general Steve Linick while Linick was pursuing investigations into his activities, including the alleged misuse of government resources. The secretary, who has denied that Linick's dismissal was retaliatory, shot back that the allegations had been "leaked" to the media by staff members of Menendez, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

 

Menendez previously faced corruption and bribery charges. The case ended in a mistrial in 2017.
