As a private citizen with no official role, Susan Pompeo used a private email account to assign official work to a top State Department staffer on behalf of her husband, the secretary, according to newly released testimony.

Susan Pompeo’s influence over official personnel and activities at the State Department has raised concerns on Capitol Hill and within the department, contributing to an ongoing inquiry in the inspector general’s office. https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article245664835.html
“The work that I get assigned is from the Secretary,” Toni Porter, a longtime confidante and aide to Pompeo from his Kansas days, told the @HouseForeign committee. “There are times that Mrs. Pompeo relays that work to me.” https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article245664835.html
Porter confirmed the inquiry is ongoing and that she was recently interviewed "about misuse of government resources by a member of the executive branch." https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article245664835.html
In 2015, Pompeo called Clinton "deeply inconsistent" over her guidance on email use to State Department staff. "She told all of them that you can’t behave this way, that you have to use an official account to conduct governmental business." https://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article245664835.html
