all those people in the dementia patient's administration resigned after the great strategic withdrawal from Afghanistan. The logistics and strategy that will be taught in military academies across the planet for decades? The resignations following barry's strategy to flood the Mexican cartels with US supplied guns as a PR strategy? The resignations following the blowback from offing Khadhafi in Libya and abandoning the embassy after the Islamic jihadis killed the American gay ambassador after PIPS left them out to dry for hours until the last defenders were killed? Me neither.
Personally, I think it was Wong who phucked up and that would have been enough but …

National security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy, Alex Wong, will be leaving their posts in the Trump White House, according to multiple sources familiar with their departure.
They are expected to leave Thursday, sources say. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Journalist Mark Halperin first reported the departures.
The president's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, is having conversations with some of the National Security Council staff today, sources said.
In March, Waltz came under scrutiny after he put together a Signal chat and mistakenly included The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg, disclosing discussions with top national security officials about plans for a military strike on Houthi targets in Yemen. Goldberg published his account, and he initially omitted operational details, but after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe denied any classified information had been shared on the chat, Goldberg published that information, too, which included the timing of the strikes and the weapons packages used.
After Waltz admitted behind closed doors the authenticity of the reporting, White House officials debated whether he should resign, but Waltz never made the offer, and Mr. Trump did not ask him to step down at the time. Publicly, President Trump signaled his support for Waltz by calling him "a good man" who "learned a lesson."
One source familiar with the situation at the National Security Council said the president thinks sufficient time has passed since the Signal incident that Waltz and Wong's departures can be framed as part of a reorganization. The president has been hesitant to oust Waltz over the perception that doing so could be seen as bending to outside pressure.
