As usual- everyone looking out for number 1. No surprise that his best people will leave the minute the smell starts to rub off on them.

Not to worry. Biden already knows his way around a presidential administration.

Sure, thoroughly briefing a new administration would be the right thing to do - but this is trump we're talking about.

I'd say it's a fair bet that EVERYTHING's a mess and everything's an issue! Good thing Joe's got experience.

Anyone losing their job in a couple of weeks, often leaves early. I don't see the big deal, but then, I paid off my student loan rather than asking the taxpayers to do it, and I don't have my hand out waiting for $1,500 a month in free money while I lay in my parent's basement, so I guess my point of reference is different than a liberal. Time to get back to work liberals and stop milking the pandemic!

When you are the Acting Director of Homeland Security in the midst of an unprecedented national security crisis and you are just too chicken**** to face the possibility you might be asked to support invoking the 25th amendment it's rather a big deal.

Sad we have such a bunch of weenies holding such important positions.

Wasn't HS formed after 9/11 as we had so many security failures that day? (sound familiar) I thought HS's purpose was to coordinate all of the agencies so there isn't an "information breakdown". This resignation is just special. We have multiple internal threats going on and we could at any time get attacked by a foreign enemy. Who's running the place?

The Democrats have been filing all kinds of court challenges opposing the legality of his appointment as acting secretary. That was one of the reasons he resigned.

They resigned. But the swamp is all cleaned up. Right?
