WASHINGTON, DC — A Filipino American top aide to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will testify before a congressional committee next week about his role in the sudden removal of former State Department Inspector General Steve Linick, the House Foreign Affairs Committee announced Monday.
President Donald Trump told Congress he removed Linick because of a loss of confidence in the watchdog, but he later told reporters that he ousted Linick at the request of Pompeo.
