The Secretary did not speak to the President this morning and is unaware of the reason, but he is grateful for the opportunity to serve, and still believes strongly that public service is a noble calling and not to be regretted.— Steve Goldstein (@UnderSecPD) March 13, 2018
We wish Secretary-Designate Pompeo well
