President-elect Donald Trump has rejected former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley for positions in his second White House cabinet.

The incoming 47th chief executive made this announcement Saturday, Nov. 9, in a post on his Truth Social account. Trump said he “will not be inviting” either Pompeo or Haley, noting that he “very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously” during his first term. The real estate mogul ended his post by thanking the two “for their service to the country.”

According to POLITICO, “the announcement indicates the extent to which loyalty will factor into the workings of the second Trump administration.” Before they endorsed Trump, both Haley and Pompeo initially sought to be occupants of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, the latter conducting a tour of early primary states before deciding against running and the former being the last major candidate to drop out during the primary.

Two sources who spoke with POLITICO said Pompeo, who served as Central Intelligence Agency director under Trump before heading the State Department, was gunning to be the head of the Department of Defense. The two tipsters spoke on condition of anonymity, citing the sensitive nature of the deliberations. Pompeo’s bid to head the Pentagon faced opposition from Trump’s close allies, including his own son Donald Trump Jr. and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

“There is a desire to not have people with presidential ambitions” use cabinet positions as a launch pad, said one of the sources – a former senior official in the Trump administration. “[Trump] got burned by Mike previously, and by Haley, and [Pompeo’s] foreign policy views are not aligned with the president.”

Last year, Pompeo criticized Trump following the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s raid on the president-elect’s Mar-a-Lago home. At the time, the former secretary of state chided Trump for allegedly having “classified documents where he shouldn’t have had them.”

“When given the opportunity to return them, he chose not to do that for whatever reason,” Pompeo remarked. “That’s inconsistent with protecting America’s soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines.”

A spokesperson for Pompeo did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Carlson and a representative for the younger Trump likewise failed to respond.

Marlow: Haley “doesn’t get Trump at all”

Haley, former governor of South Carolina, challenged her former boss for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination. But she withdrew from the race after the results of Super Tuesday, where Trump won 14 of 15 state primary elections, and with her only winning the primaries in Vermont and Washington, D.C.

Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow put in his two cents on the development during an episode of “The Alex Marlow Show” on Monday, Nov. 11.

“Haley’s very ambitious. I don’t think she’s learned the lessons of MAGA [Make America Great Again]. I don’t think she learned the lessons of America First. I don’t think she gets Trump at all. All I know is that the policies that she champions are really a lot closer to Liz Cheney policies than the Donald Trump policies,” Marlow said.

“[Haley is] someone who clearly wants to be president very badly, and will do what it takes to try to be president. I don’t know why Trump would spend time elevating her, considering her version of conservatism is not aligned with his, and I don’t think it’s aligned with the public.”
