Would that it were:
President Trump has accepted Nikki Haley’s resignation as UN Ambassador, according to two sources briefed on their conversation. The timing of her departure is still unclear.
What we’re hearing: Haley discussed her resignation with Trump last week when she visited him at the White House, these sources said. Her news shocked a number of senior foreign policy officials in the Trump administration.
Legit whoa if true.

We’ll stay tuned, of course. What does this mean?
The big questions are: (1) Why? and (2) Why now?
