I'm not sure that a world without Pompeo in it is a worse place, but still... what a petty asshole. Key point... the president is under the same threat from Iran, and he and his advisors repeatedly stressed the seriousness of the threat during the last 4 years.

Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH.

No health alerts; no updates to key websites or social media posts.
