The Decision Is Made: Joe Biden Plans No Firings over Afghanistan
Breitbart ^ | August 23, 2021 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 08/23/2021 6:25:07 AM PDT by White Lives Matter

President Joe Biden will not fire anyone in his administration over the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, according to an Axios report.

Citing, “people familiar with the matter,” Axios reported that senior national security and intelligence officials can rest easy in their jobs despite their failure not only to anticipate a complete collapse of the legitimate Afghan government but also to plan for a smooth exit from the country.

A number of top officials have been at the forefront of Biden’s staggering failure, including Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and CIA Director William Burns.

Biden stubbornly insisted to reporters Sunday that the evacuation process was always going to be chaotic and that history would ultimately judge him as “right” for ending the war in Afghanistan.

“I think that history is going to record this was the logical, rational, right decision to make,” he said.

Biden’s reaction is similar to that of former President Barack Obama, who rarely fired anyone, even after his administration failed to protect the American consulate in Benghazi in 2012.

To me, with zero firings, logic dictates this is proof that this was all preplanned from the getgo.

Yep....in fact you may see promotions for a job well done in the near future.

Just one more way to give the American people the finger.

Was his choice and decision. I wonder if it was his plan or someone screwed up. Maybe it was intentional.

Of course. Firing would be an acknowledgement that something was wrong.

Yes. That was clear a week ago when that window of opportunity presented itself. Monday last week was already too late

The Left has always been incapable of reflection, self criticism and accountability. Biden is useless. He is demented and corrupt. He is run by a cabal of left wing slime. In a just world they would pay a heavy price for their malfeance.

I hope you make at least one good policy decision, Joe, before they remove you from office.

No firings over a catastrophic debacle costing untold damage to our Country’s reputation and world standing, let alone human lives and treasure.

But if a staffer’s 10-year old sexist Facebook post emerges—well, off with his head!

Yes it would be. I think if Biden fired anyone, he would also have to resign.

Communists are so used to narrative shifting their failures into successes that firing anyone means an admission of guilt. Also, it seems like this debacle was entirely on the idiot-in-chief who is not going to fire himself.

Yup. All a setup with predetermined outcome.

Criminal on so many levels, this proves their depravity and lends credence to oh so many conspiracy theories here domestically.

He should fire himself. In other words resign. Let that kommiela screw things up for awhile. Wouldn’t be long for the rocks themselves would be crying out for the Donald.

Confirms that the whole deadly shitshow is intentional. They decided purposefully to sabotage América with the exit in a mandated grossly negligent way.

In the ChiComjoe kakistocracy, treachery and treason are rewarded. Look for “Fool of Kabul” Milley to be promoted to 5-star general.
