No big news here. It was "speculated" a good while back, that Haley was going to step down as UN Ambassador. I'm pleased that it has transpired diplomatically, and the POTUS has already had ample time to consider a next up.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Earlier this year, she also was named acting undersecretary for public diplomacy and public affairs after the dismissal of Steve Goldstein from that post.
I did not even know we had an "undersecretary for public diplomacy and public affairs"
But it looks like she will fit right in with the Trump administration....
Nauert has made a few errors at the podium for which she's been skewered by critics. Last month, she was widely ridiculed for citing the 1944 D-Day invasion of Nazi-occupied France as evidence of the US's "strong relationship" with the government of Germany.
