:::The point is, there is a whole lot more to this story than reported. What has been reported is just another internal hit on Pompeo in the same way low-level operatives like [[Peter Strzok]] or [[Eric Ciaramella]] attempted to take out President Trump with media leaks. The issue is the same as the leak that reported Hillary Clinton saying, "Can't we just drone him?" While some advocate a pardon or immunity, the "interagency consensus" (to borrow a phrase used by both [[Vindman]] and now [[Milley]]) is, Assange must be made an example of. If they don't whack him, he'll remain a hunted man his entire life like bin Laden or Eichmann. The problem with arrest and trial is, he's committed no punishable crime.

:::Let's break it down: Hillary wanted the interagency consensus to put him on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposition_Matrix Disposition Matrix] for final approval by a Presidential Finding; Hillary's successor, Pompeo, took the first step that both the CIA & FBI's counterintelligence unit, as well as [[FinCEN]] and other [[IC]] agencies need to use the FISA process to get his name on the Disposition Matrix.
