Washington, May 1 (RHC)-- Tucker Carlson ripped former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo during a recent interview by calling him a criminal and claimed he plotted to assassinate Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.

The former Fox News host made the comments on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast while describing how Pompeo's lawyers threatened him for discussing the JFK assassination files.  Carlson alleged during his stint in the Trump administration Pompeo convinced the president to keep information on the 35th president's killing classified and led the crusade against Assange in 2017 when WikiLeaks continued publishing classified government documents.

The WikiLeaks founder's wife, Stella Assange, has previously appeared on Carlson's X show to slam Pompeo for an alleged murder plot against her husband under the Trump administration.

"Mike Pompeo was the secretary of state, but before then, he was the director of the CIA.  And in that position, he plotted the murder of Julian Assange.  So he is a criminal as far as I'm concerned," Carlson said. 

Carlson alleged during his time in the Donald Trump administration, Pompeo convinced the president to keep information about JFK's assassination classified.

"He's a dangerous individual," Stella said of Pompeo.  "The CIA is a rogue organization that everyone on every level of U.S. politics is terrified of, they are trained to assassinate, to fabricate information and place it in the media and conduct propaganda warfare and to overthrow governments and so on."

Carlson said Pompeo's lawyers called him after he talked about the JFK files on his show and threatened him.  "I spoke to someone who seen the documents two years ago and I got one fact out of them, which is yes -- the CIA was involved," he said. "I thought that was news, so I went on TV and said that. 

"His lawyer called me and said, you know, you should know that anyone who tells you the contents of classified documents has committed a crime.  He's threatening me."

"And so Mike Pompeo is the one who pressed Trump to keep those documents secret," Carlson said. "Pompeo did that.  I think Pompeo is a really sinister person and a criminal.  I think that because the facts suggest that he was caught."

Pompeo and Trump enjoyed a close relationship throughout his presidency and he largely avoided the criticism and public slamming that other Cabinet secretaries endured.  He previously teased a forthcoming endorsement of his former boss in the 2024 race for president during an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.

When asked if he plans to publicly endorse Trump in the race, Pompeo replied that he'll support "whoever the Republican candidate is."

"The math would suggest that'll be President Trump, and it's likely to be even more clear relatively quickly," he said.  "I full-throatedly will do everything I can to make sure that President Biden doesn't get four more years," he added to DailyMail.com. 

Carlson slammed Pompeo's standing in the Republican party and said he feels its insane for him to be a part of any future administration.  "What's crazy is how Mike Pompeo is treated.  He's treated as like a Republican poohbah in good standing.  He fully expects to become the secretary of defense in a Trump Administration which is like completely insane.  Why would you take a criminal and give him nuclear weapons?" Carlson asked.

"Mike Pompeo it's like no, you're the guy who kept information the public has a right to no secret.  You're the guy who plotted the murder of someone who committed no crime.  You are the outlaw, you are the bad guy, but no, he's treated as like a pillar of Republican Washington.  I think that's I think it's mind-bending to watch that."
