As we have been predicting a new report claims there will be no firings in the Biden White House over the horror show we have all witnessed over the past week in Afghanistan.
Via Axios:
President Biden isn’t inclined to fire any senior national security officials over the chaos in Kabul unless the situation drastically deteriorates or there’s significant loss of American life, people familiar with the matter tell Axios.

Why it matters: Dismissing national security advisor Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin or CIA Director William Burns would be tantamount to admitting a mistake, and the president stands by his decision.
While acknowledging the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan has been “messy” and the Taliban captured the country quicker than he anticipated, Biden is deeply committed to his policy, the people tell Axios.

“I think that history is going to record this was the logical, rational, right decision to make,” Biden said Sunday afternoon at the White House.
“Let me be clear: The evacuation of thousands of people from Kabul was going to be hard and painful no matter when it started, when we began. It would have been true if we had started a month ago — or a month from now. There’s no way to evacuate this many people without pain and loss of heartbreaking images you see on television. It’s just a fact.”

While this is terrible, those responsible should be fired or court martialed, it appears to be par for the course when Democrats are in charge.
As Axios reported, firing anyone would be tantamount to admitting a mistake, and God forbid Joe Biden admit he made a mistake in Afghanistan.
A mistake that is clear and easy for anyone with a brain to see.
To claim that what has happened over the past week, and the fact that thousands of Americans and our allies are trapped behind Taliban lines, is to simply claim that no mistakes are ever possible for Joe Biden.
If the debacle in Afghanistan is not failure I cannot even imagine what failure must look like to the deranged people inhabiting the Biden administration.
