.... Well .... Personally I am sitting here wondering why the Logan Act was not even mentioned by Pompeo and why it is not brought into play here.

The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799): is a United States federal law that criminalizes negotiation by unauthorized persons with foreign governments having a dispute with the United States.

Probably because too many senior Republicans want to keep working in the same way with the Saudis.
