...KELLY: Sir, respectfully, where have you defended Marie Yovanovitch?

POMPEO: I've defended every single person on this team. I've done what's right for every senior person on this team.

KELLY: Can you point me toward your remarks where you have defended Marie Yovanovitch?

POMPEO: I've said all I'm going to say today. Thank you...

If only all interviewers kept the feet to the facts fire like this. She let Pompeo make his statements, but she never let him get away with lies.

Thanks, Leghorn. That felt good!
