Yes it is, but when you think about it not surprising. Her policies are not the president's policies. She was often put in awkward situations because of Trump's idiocy toward other countries.

But, I think it is obviously connected to the ****show we just witnessed the GOP congress members and Trump put on.

And, oh yeah--she's a woman.

I hope she's planning to run for something in 2020. She is one of the very few in Trump's circle who is not a sycophant, not a xenophobe and not a Swamp Creature.

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, the president promised a "big announcement" with her at 10:30 a.m.

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.

"But but...people get hired and fired all the time."

Maybe she's resigning because Trump is giving her a promotion, and somebody else is leaving....

Yeah, that was the first thing I thought of. The watchdog group that is calling for an investigation accuse her of behaving exactly like her boss, "reaping personal benefits from their public positions.”

Everyone Trump touches either throws away their ethics and/or turns corrupt.

I also suspect it was because of that journalist that got killed over in Turkey. She don't wanna mess around with that.

If she disagrees with the president’s foreign policies, then she truly deserves an Oscar.

You would have thought Leftists would have learned their lesson after the horrific display they put on towards Kavanaugh but not so much. Still bitter and hateful everyday.

An ethics probe kind of torpedoes any hope of higher office. Could she be done with politics?

Its like what happened with Pompeo.
Trump loved Pompeo's performance as CIA Director so he gave him a promotion to Secretary Of State.
