Sadly, I hear that Pompeo is being recruited to run for the Kansas Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Pat Roberts next year.

Pompeo and Roberts are reportedly meeting to discuss this prospect.

That doesn't feel right. Especially in light of the ball he has rolling in North Korea and elsewhere. I pray God gives him complete clarity.

Jeff Sessions would have been better off remaining in Senate than as AG. Pompeo belongs in cabinet as SOS.

Pompeo is an absolute home run for America!

Pompeo would make for one hell of a choice for 2024.

He’s great! And so loyal to Trump too. I hope he stays on board and Kansas GOP finds another senate candidate.

I caught some of a show on cnn this morning with Axelrod doing an infomercial with Kerry. Basically going on about how great Kerry was and how he was always right and everything Trump is doing is horrible. I believe Kerry was pushing a book about how great he was. Pukefest.

It would be astonishing (and horrible) if Pompeo prefers being a Senator to being Secretary of State under POTUS Trump. SofS is a far more consequential position for the country and the world. I realize that people like getting into the Senate for those nice 6 yr terms and cozy life, but Pompeo is doing such important work and we need him where he is.

Matt Schlapp said he’s interested.

Oh good! I hope Schlapp will be next Senator then.

Sad that Kansas is even a concern. *sigh* How did state become so liberal or GOP so weak?

That would be Every Day Is Extra. Book lists for $22.48 + ship. Follow that link and you can get it for $9, including ship. Book was published Sept 2008. Already less than half price. Soon to appear in your Wal*Mart bargain bin.

I trade books with other people and I buy books at Dollar Tree. I frequently find books there other people are looking for. I’ve noticed quite a few “political” books, usually by people like Debbie Wasserman Schulz and Rham Emanuel’s brother. They never seem to sell very quickly. I don’t buy them, even if other people might want them.

I’ll start looking for Kerry’s book.

Let’s face it, Tillerson was a dud and a lot of people could see it from the beginning.

Pompeo is the first conservative SOS in a long while, I hope he doesn’t run for the Senate.

Going from US Sec of State to US Senator would be a hugh demotion.

Oh, I hope NOT. He needs to stay right where he is, and then run for President in 2024.

Carry on, Pompeo. You’re terrific!!!
