Pompeo sworn in as secretary of state, dashes off to Europe

Mike Pompeo took over as America's top diplomat Thursday after being confirmed by the Senate and sworn in across the street minutes later. The new secretary of state immediately dashed off to Europe in an energetic start befitting the high-stakes issues awaiting him from Iran to North Korea.

I'm kind of surprised they actually confirmed him. Hope he's able to sound a little more sane than his boss. ;)
