Mike Pompeo Lands New Job as Adviser to a Foreign Company


Mike Pompeo, former Secretary of State, has snagged a cushy new gig.

It’s an adviser for Japan’s steel giant, Nippon Steel Corp.

They said they’re thrilled to work with Pompeo.

Especially since their takeover of U.S. Steel is apparently the key to saving the world.

This is an interesting development, seeing as how Nippon Steal has proposed $14.9 billion merger with U.S. Steel.

 

The Gateway Pundit reports:

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has landed a new gig with Japan’s biggest steelmaker, Nippon Steel Corp.

In a statement, Nippon Steel shared, “We look forward to working alongside Pompeo to further emphasize the ways in which Nippon Steel’s acquisition of U.S. Steel bolsters the country’s economic and national security.”

Reuters reported Pompeo will be hired as an adviser for Nippon Steel.

Currently, Nippon Steal has received all regulatory approvals outside of the United States for their proposed $14.9 billion merger with U.S. Steel, but currently, they are facing regulatory trouble from within the United States, which is essentially the reason why Pompeo was hired.

 

Recall this curious clip from Tucker Carlson?

He mentioned on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast that Pompeo had a hand in plotting an attack on Julian Assange.

Reuters adds:

Japan’s biggest steelmaker, Nippon Steel Corp. (5401.T), opens new tab, has hired former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to help with its effort to acquire U.S. Steel (X.N), opens new tab, the Japanese company said on Saturday.
Japan’s Kyodo news agency and Bloomberg, which first reported the appointment, said Pompeo had been hired as an adviser. Nippon Steel said in its statement that Pompeo had not been given a specific job title within the company.
