Are there any cases of the US poisoning people in assassinations? Im actually curious about that. Nothing comes to mind. Missiles are more thier style.

All cases of drone strikes I know are outside of the US. I don't know what types of assassinations they do in the US.

The CIA supposedly had a "heart attack gun" that would poison you and the official cause would be a heart attack. I don't think there has been a case that were later revealed to be a poisoning.

And they could also crash your car and make it look like an accident. Like this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Hastings_(journalist)#Controversy_over_alleged_foul_play
