“Effective immediately, Ambassador Woolsey is no longer a Senior Adviser to President-elect Trump or the transition,” Woolsey’s spokesman, Jonathan Franks, wrote in a statement that was first reported by CNN’s Jeremy Diamond. “He wishes the President-elect and his Administration great success in their time in office.”

This statement is what Woolsey was trying to clarify, or spin if one is cynical. Woolsey said on Fox that he didn’t really “resign” as an advisor to the Trump transition team because he has never functioned as an advisor to Trump since the campaign. As I wrote, that begs the question of why he was shunted aside as the transition team was put together.
