How Tucker Carlson Killed Mike Pompeo s Chances of Joining Trump s Cabinet – WSJ

Carlson and Donald Trump Jr., the president-elect s eldest son, outlined what they said were the dangers of bringing neoconservatives into the administration men and women, they claimed, who seek to control him, not serve him. They also argued that Pompeo had proven himself to be disloyal, the people said, pointing to Pompeo s decision to distance himself from false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, and comments he made that the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol by Trump supporters was unacceptable.

Within days of the election, Pompeo was out of the running. The president-elect posted on Truth Social that Pompeo and Nikki Haley, Trump s former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, wouldn t be landing jobs in his administration.
