I imagine he is just being transferred back to the Pentagon. It would take a lot more to kick him out and take away his salary.
He’s going to be quite miserable there as I understand it. He cooked his own goose as his peers won’t want anything to do with him.

That’s what I thought. The moment you work for the Federal government, it looks like you have a job and salary for life no matter how corrupt and incompetent you are. Some Cases in point:
1) Marie Yovanovich: Fired from her ambassadorship to Ukraine. She was still in the Diplomatic corp and still has a teaching job at at Georgetown. She announced her retirement a few weeks ago, probably with full retirement benefits.
2) So-called whistleblower ( for the dems of course ), Eric Ciaramela, left the CIA to work for the NSC, and then was kicked out for leaking sensitive information to the media. NO PUNISHMENT. He was simply transferred back to the CIA and eventually worked in the Obama White House. This man became the leaker that caused the entire impeachment hoax. He’s still in government last I heard.
3) Lois Lerner — the infamous IRS director who was caught using the agency to target conservatives. She was formally charged with contempt of Congress ( what does that even mean? ). Result: She got to keep her job till retirement. Her retirement included a 6 figure a year pension.
What about Gordon Sondland? He was fired too. Is he still in government?
