US President-elect Donald Trump said on November 9 local time that he would not invite former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley and former Secretary of State Pompeo to join his administration. Haley served as governor of South Carolina and served as the US ambassador to the United Nations under Trump. Pompeo, who served as director of the CIA and secretary of state under Trump, was also seen as a potential Republican presidential candidate, but he announced in April 2023 that he would not run.
