I just saw this when I sat down to work and haven't really had time to absorb the news. No one should be the least surprised at the move: Trump and Tillerson were said to be at odds on a host of issues, and of course Trump never lost an opportunity to embarrass or trash his SoS if it served his purposes.

I'm curious to see what people think of Pompeo moving into that position. 

Anyway, typical Trump. He catches everyone short by impulsively agreeing to a sit-down with Kim and then throws his already tattered State department into further short-term turmoil. Of course, there is no guarantee that this 'summit' is anything other than another desperate PR stunt. At best, I give it a 50% chance of actually happening. Either way, amateur hour continues.

On Pompeo it continues Bonespurs' policy of only taking on war criminals or traitors.
