Sen. Marsha Blackburn on Friday urged President Joe Biden to remove national security adviser Jake Sullivan from his post in the wake of last weekend’s unprecedented terrorist attack in Israel.
“Yet, to date, over 1,200 Israelis have been killed, over 150 hostages have been taken from the safety of their homes, and at least 27 American lives have been lost, with at least 14 Americans still missing,” Blackburn wrote after referencing the national security adviser’s remarks. “This is Jake Sullivan’s perception of a quiet Middle East. This is unacceptable.”
In a statement provided to the Washington Examiner on the letter, the Tennessee senator said, “America is better than a feckless foreign policy that emboldens terrorists and rogue regimes. We have been gravely misled by ‘experts’ who have been dead wrong, especially on Middle East policy. It’s time to clean shop — starting with Jake Sullivan.”CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
