Mike Pompeo Slammed After Using Lisa Simpson GIF To Mock Dems During Segment About Domestic Abuse
The internet was collectively outraged on Wednesday, August 19, when Mike Pompeo, the U.S. Secretary of State, tweeted a GIF of Lisa Simpson crying and tearing papers, seemingly in response to a Democratic National Convention segment on domestic violence.
The video, which focused on Joe Biden's role in crafting the Violence Against Women's Act, featured many survivors of domestic violence endorsing the Democratic Presidential candidate.
Pompeo seemed to be mocking these survivors with his tweet.
