Former Congressman and current Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Dec. 30 he wasn’t ruling out running for a U.S. Senate seat but did say running for the seat is “not something that I want to do.”

Pompeo, 56, made the remarks during an appearance on “Fox & Friends” a day after National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien said Pompeo told him he wasn’t going to run for the open Senate seat in Kansas.
