Gen. James Jones to resign as Obama's national security advisor

2010-10-08 21:26:06 GMT+7 (ICT)

WASHINGTON, D.C. (BNO NEWS) -- United States National Security Advisor General James Jones will be announcing his resignation on Friday, administration sources told BNO News.

The announcement will be made by President Barack Obama during a Rose Garden ceremony with Jones and deputy national security advisor Tom Donilon, who is expected to replace Jones later this month. The announcement will be made at 1 p.m. EDT.

The reason for Jones' departure was not immediately clear, but follows a series of resignations in the Obama administration. Dennis Blair resigned as Director of National Intelligence in May, followed by Robert Gates' announcement that he plans to retire next year. And earlier this month, Rahm Emanuel announced his departure as Obama's Chief of Staff.

As the US top dog Donald Trump touches down in the Turkish capital of Ankara for the NATO Leaders Summit - along with around 1,400 of his minions - a very strange tradition is raising its head once again. Everything that the charismatic 80-year-old relieves his body of will not touch foreign soil. Instead, it'll be collected in his personal toilet system, watched hawk-like by accompanying members of the Secret Service with pegs on their nose. But what in God's name is this all about? https://w

I detest Trump for a variety of reasons, and now he's given me one more. Despite the grave misgivings I, and many, many more, had going into this WC ( ICE, the visa issues, a top referee turned away, the treatment of the Iranian team etc.) the WC was turning into a great success, bringing people from all over the world together, including lots of Americans, many of who seemed to develop an interest in, and an enjoyment of, the beautiful game.

But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic. Succumbing to these predatory myths
