Spent four years at the State Department. Circled the world twice over with Hillary Clinton.

It’s not daycare. We didn’t carry blank maps. If Pompeo’s staff carry blank maps it’s because he pulls this stunt often.

Give him a blank anatomy chart. See if he can find his balls.

"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'"

off the camera fiasco, where the reporter was given a blank map. He should be ashamed of himself. How diplomatic. I'm embarrassed that these people represent this country.
