WASHINGTON — Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo won’t be returning to Wichita, Kansas, just yet. Instead, he’ll take a job on Pennsylvania Avenue in the nation's capital.
Pompeo has been named a distinguished fellow at the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank just blocks from the White House.
Axios first reported Pompeo’s decision to stay in Washington Tuesday evening. The institute made its official announcement of Pompeo’s position in a news release, which touted Pompeo’s background as both CIA director and the nation’s top diplomat under former President Donald Trump.
