Trump tweeted after Tillerson rejected key details of the report in a rare response from the State Department. “There’s never been a consideration in my mind,” Tillerson told reporters, in a previously unscheduled statement. Vice President Pence reportedly got involved at the time to discuss ways to ease tensions. The NBC report also had said the vice president questioned the role of U.S. But Agen said, "Any statements that the Vice President questioned Ambassador Nikki Haley's value to the Trump Administration is also categorically false."
