The curious case of the missing resignations
By John Ellis

One of the strangest things about the Afghanistan debacle is that in spite of extraordinarily harsh criticism worldwide, nobody has resigned, and nobody has been fired.  Many assume that this is so because the failure is President Biden's, but in thinking this, they are simply wrong.

Consciousness of failure is only one of many reasons for resignations from high government positions.  Some resign in protest at what is being done, or to publicly dissociate themselves from it, as Cyrus Vance did in 1980, when President Carter tried to rescue the American hostages in Iran by military force.

Others resign to restore public confidence in their office — as British foreign secretary Lord Carrington did in 1982 when he failed to foresee Argentina's attack on the Falklands.

Some resign because they don't feel able to advocate for a president's policy as a key member of his team ought to be able to.

John Ellis:
"The curious case of the missing resignations..."

Fool.
These guys won't get "resignations" (or teminations).
Instead, they'll all get a new ribbon or two to pin on their dress uniforms...

You could say the exact same thing about our public health officials. Anthony Fauci has failed with everything he's tried, has admittedly refused to listen to any public criticism (thus is no longer capable of assessing the human impact of the policies he proposes, dooming them to further failure), and gets rewarded by becoming the President's top advisor. No one—from Fauci on down to local county health heads—has lost their job because of this debacle.

Fauci is part of the problem and on a grander scale I believe bought and paid for by Joe and China as well as others -- they're not about to be hold him accountable.
