Was Tillerson part of the rumored 'suicide pack' in the White House that included Mattis and someone else?

Note that Tills was the only one in the administration to make any sort of comment attributing blame of the poisoned individual in the UK to Russia.

Remarkable statement from Tillerson spokesman: Sec State wanted to stay in his job, was unaware of the reason for his firing and has not spoken to Trump about it.

I now want a list of all the departures from this administration based on how they left. Did they resign with time for a transition, did they have a conversation with Donald or their next-up boss first before they left, did they find out they were fired by a tweet...?

To see these by category might be illuminating.

Tillerson was a shirt as hell SoS, but it's really hard not to draw a straight line from his calling out of Russia for assassinating someone on UK soil and his firing.

Looking like a pretty damn sure thing that Russia has something on Trump now.

VANITY FAIR - TRUMP IS GOING FOR A CLEAN RESET: FUMING IN THE WEST WING, TRUMP PREPARES TO DEFENESTRATE CUCK ALLIES AND GO FULL MAGA

According to five Republicans close to the White House, Trump has diagnosed the problem as having the wrong team around him and is looking to replace his senior staff in the coming weeks. Trump is going for a clean reset, but he needs to do it in a way thats systemic so it doesnt look like its chaos, one Republican said.

EDIT: had a snarky comment but I misread part of this.

Trump's personal aide Johnny McEntee was fired because he is currently under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security for serious financial crimes, a source familiar with his firing tells CNNs @kaitlancollins.

He agreed with U.K. officials that Russia poisoned an ex-spy. Given how every action Trump takes seems to be to please his master, Vladimir, it's easy to see why Tillerson would suddenly get fired.

I just woke up 3 minutes ago. I do not know their mindset. Most I know probably do not care that he is fired. I assume it has something to do with the Korea thing. Pompeo was announcing a few days ago how we were going to deal with Korea. Makes me think this Tillerson thing is not a decision that was made suddenly but was always coming for a little while at least.
