Did Nuland abruptly resign because her 210 days of non Senate confirmed “acting” status had come to an end and to stay she would have had to go through the confirmation process? If this is the case, should we expect her reappearance in another role? Once DJT becomes president he should utilize “acting” appointments to bypass the Uniparty (R) sabotage via the confirmation process we saw in his first term. The best appointment of his first term was “Acting” Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell. Perhaps someone more familiar with the Vacancies Act than I am can tell me if I’m reading this correctly. Also, how long could DJT employ “acting” appointments at Attorney General? Can he appoint more than one acting AG consecutively as one 210 day term expires?

From the Federal Vacancies Act “When a vacancy occurs, the position can be filled by an acting officer for 210 days from the date of the vacancy, in addition to the time when a nomination is pending before the Senate.”

The fellow who got the position is a skilled “China hand,” not a warmongering Russophobic descendant of bitter Trotskyites.

No doubt an enormously narcissistic person as well.She’s half of one of the power couples I believe, but I don’t recall other half.

Look for the Zeeper neocons (FReocons) to suddenly pivot away from Russia to China.

Nuland was also involved in crafting the State Dept. B.S. talking points, along with Susan Rice, after the Benghazi disaster in 2012.

She did a lot of damage in those 210 days. I do not know who blew up the Nord Stream pipeline, but I know of only two public officials who said they would. One of them is Nuland and the other’s name is Biden.

A rat abandoning a sinking ship. Her Ukraine project is in ruins. This is a clear sign that Russia has won and the proxy war is coming to a close.

A Deep State globalist war-monger exits in disgrace and good riddance.

I fear we haven’t heard the last of her.

I always thought that Nuland was number 2...needed to be flushed.

And Nikki Haley resigned as UN Ambassador after President Trump replaced Rex Tillerson with Mike Pompeo who reminded her that she worked for the Secretary State not directly for the President.

No surprise that Sputnik chooses James Carden for comment, since he appears to have been plying the Neville Chamberlain oar in the media for some time now.

She did NOT RESIGN. She RETIRED with a VERY SWEET PENSION and lots of impending EASY MONEY SINECURES. Probably a book deal also.

Doubtful. She tells Blinken what to do. He’s a puppet.

BS. I served over 8 years in the foreign service. Foreign Service personnel do not run America Color Revolutions. That is the job of the CIA. ot eveen woke Biden would further discredit State by appointment of a know intelligence operative as rhe No 2.

She is being removed for her colossal Frac up in Ukraine.
She has list all credibility.

Rumors are she was involved in the damous German phone call. War planning is not in the State Department job description.

If she had any honor she would commit suicide like most general officers when their soldiers all are killed from their continously bad decisions.

Her 2 dozen attempts at color revolutions finally bit her in the ass.

Again, Diplomats do not engage in color revolutions. They conduct diplomacy. Calling her a member of the Department of State is supposed to give her position cover of diplomatic immunity.

Liberals and woke give State a bad name... strap hangers like Nuland give American a bad name.

Tell Nulled to cheer up. She’ll always be a big, steaming number two in my view.
