Sounds like he is already out the door but is using vacation which ends at the end of January. His butt was fired.

Did you read the article?

Chewning's departure had been expected, and Fox News has learned that it is not related to the current Iranian conflict.

The people responsible for preparing the Iraqi withdrawal letter, have just been sacked.
