In 2017, as Julian Assange began his fifth year holed up in Ecuador’s embassy in London, the CIA plotted to kidnap the WikiLeaks founder, spurring heated debate among Trump administration officials over the legality and practicality of such an operation.
This also refutes a lot of the common narratives about the way the CIA operates. Assange wasn't an active threat to them anymore and they still wanted to kill him out of spite. They try so hard to sell the image on TV and movies that all this shit is run through a massive process in some dark room full of dozens of computer screens that track every possible threat to the country when in reality it was a couple of guys at a table trying to work out the logistics of a murdering snitches like a mob movie.
