Biden adviser offered to resign over Afghanistan withdrawal, report says

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan reportedly offered to resign in 2021 after the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which included a terrorist attack that killed 13 service members. This situation created tensions within Biden's national security team. Despite Sullivan's disagreement with the withdrawal decision, he supported President Biden's choice. Columnist David Ignatius noted that Sullivan's resignation offer was not accepted, but it strained relationships within the administration. A Wall Street Journal reporter disputed this account, stating that his sources were unaware of any resignation offers. The White House has not commented on the matter.
