State Dept. Watchdog Steps Down After Pompeo Blasts Report About Wife's Travel
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

State Department Inspector General Matthew Klimow stepped down Thursday
after Mike Pompeo lashed out at a report in which the watchdog found
Pompeo's wife did not secure proper approval or documentation for trips
she took with her husband as part of official State Department business.
The investigation, however, cleared Susan Pompeo of violating federal
ethics rules.
