Director Pompeo nominated to head the State Department
on March 13, 2018 at 1:21 pmPosted In: POLITICS
After months of disputes with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, President Trump removed him Tuesday and nominated CIA Director Mike Pompeo to head the State Department.
White House officials later said that a Tillerson aide was also fired for giving reporters differing accounts of how the secretary of State learned of his fate. The two officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the move.
The officials said they are bracing for more staff changes, citing Trump’s comment to reporters Tuesday as he prepared to fly to California: “I’m really at a point where we’re getting very close to having the Cabinet and other things that I want.”
Tillerson, who said Trump called him hours after he tweeted an announcement about Pompeo’s nomination, told reporters his last day would be March 31, and he pledged am “orderly and smooth transition.”

An Austin teenager was killed and woman was injured early Monday when a package left on their doorstep exploded, marking the second deadly package explosion in the Texas capital in two weeks.
Austin Police Chief Brian Manley said the two incidents displayed enough similarities to investigate them together. Since both victims were African-Americans, Manley said investigators are also viewing the attacks as potential hate crimes.
His department is working with the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to determine whether both bombs were similar and to identify the person, or people, who built them.
“We are not going to tolerate this in Austin,” Manley said while briefing reporters on the explosion. “Every stop will be pulled out.”
