US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley Resigned

cnn.com

US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley resigned Tuesday directly to President Donald Trump, according to multiple sources familiar with her decision. CNN reported on this.

A senior State Department official said Haley told her staff this morning.

Teasing an announcement in the Oval Office this morning, Trump called Haley "my friend."

"Big announcement with my friend Ambassador Nikki Haley in the Oval Office at 10:30am," Trump tweeted.

The former South Carolina governor was tapped as ambassador to the UN following Trump's election win despite supporting Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in her state's all-important 2016 presidential primary and later backing Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

During her more than a year-and-a-half on the job, she has repeatedly spoken her mind, whether it's going further on human rights than many of her administration colleagues or denouncing racism at home.
