So much for those questions. Diane Quest, spokeswoman for State Department Inspector General Howard “Cookie” Krongard, says Krongard is “not commenting any further than what was said at the hearing.” Asked if Krongard stands by his testimony in light of its direct contradiction by his brother, Quest repeated the no-comment.
Will Krongard stay on the job? Quest says she’s heard of “no announcements” by the State Department on Krongard’s future.
