washington, on a lot of fronts, from the state department to the pentagon, people after several months speaking their mind, when they're asked about it, everything from four-star generals to secretaries of defense and secretaries of state. >> barbara starr, you asked a key question there. it's the reason we're focused on those two doors in front of you right now. where does that leave, rex tillerson, the secretary of state. this was not a news conference or a statement that we were expecting tomorrow, but for tom even, at the state department, they put that podium out and they told us we would be hearing from the secretary of state today. elise labott joins us right now, perhaps with some insight here. and again, this comes as there's been reporting about the secretary of state, very public reporting, about seemingly key policy disagreements he has with the administration. but also some personal issues, as well, elise. >> that's right. and i mean, john and poppy, look, this is the secretary of state who came in with no government experience.
