Trump had called Napolitano to the Whitehouse to review pardons and commutations, after Jan 6 and before Jan 20. He told Napolitano he was going to parden Snowden and Assange, but he didn't do it, and Napolitano believes Pompeo was the one who talked him out of it.

It's increasingly diifficult for CIA and such organizations to operate around the world because there are all sorts of people who are trying to expose them.
The government has good guys and bad guys it talks about, but informed people come on internet interviews (like Napolitano's) to talk to large audiences and say that what the government said was not so. This is why Sanders and Trump, who would never have been serious candidates in 1990 are serious candidates now. Because people don't trust the so-called establishment, and Sanders and Trump are not part of it. People are fed up, and willing to vote for these guys.
Iran play a long game. As US is impatient to get out of Middle East, Iran stays and spreads its influence in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon. It's not going to directly confront Israel or US on their own terms but rather asymetrically, because they can have victories that way. It remains to be seen what the long term strategy response will be.
An added strain to global humanitarian crisis ongoing.
