As Twitchy told you, Donald Trump has announced that Nikki Haley is resigning as U.N. Ambassador in order to “take a break.” According to Trump, Haley informed him six months ago that she was thinking of resigning at the end of the year.
But clearly we’re not supposed to buy that explanation:
Many in White House in the dark on WHY exactly she’s doing this, and they’re asking themselves why *now,* just before the midterm elections. https://t.co/YMQZ5lu9HR

Sources close to the WH echo this sentiment — that the timing doesn't make sense. A source adds that it allows people to say Kavanaugh might have played a role. https://t.co/JiLtUBzVie

Exactly.
I have no indication Nikki Haley resigned because of discontent over Kavanaugh’s confirmation, but the timing hints that — and White House aides are aware of that. https://t.co/LjI9zDYIdi— Jennifer Jacobs (@JenniferJJacobs) October 9, 2018
“No indication.” But as we’ve seen so much lately, a lack of concrete evidence is no excuse not to push a narrative.
No evidence? Run with it anyway. https://t.co/czZ2BslIjA

Less hints. More facts

That’s a tall order for today’s Real Journalists.
So you've done as much reporting as a random Twitter user. Take a bow.
