latest now on this breaking news story for that i want to turn over to our correspondent who is standing by in washington maya did anybody see this coming nikki haley's resignation. frankly know leyla is this sort of harken back to beginning of the trouble ministration when it seemed like there was someone resigning every other minute but this one really didn't have any kind of build up there were no leaks about tension between the two in fact they're known to get along very well and she is known to be very close to him as an advisor it is sort of a shock although i should say that this isn't as destabilizing as some other resignations have been but what they are losing here is someone who's very respected in the cabinet someone who definitely has the ear of the president and someone who's a bit of a moderating force in the u.n. with a president who likes to. shall we say casually tossed aside some longstanding allies that the u.s. has had right and that just to our viewers i think the images that we're showing
