Including, it appears, the Biden administration.
I was among the legion of people who thought that appointing Rahm as an ambassador was a stupid idea, particularly as ambassador to Japan.
It turns out that Rahm's recent behavior on social media is perceived as disruptive:
Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel is reportedly in hot water with Biden administration aides for recent social media posts.
The social media posts include Emanuel questioning the recent whereabouts of Chinese government officials and accusing Chinese President Xi Jinping of disinformation.
“President Xi’s cabinet lineup is now resembling Agatha Christie’s novel And Then There Were None,” reads one of Emanuel’s posts on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “First, Foreign Minister Qin Gang goes missing, then the Rocket Force commanders go missing, and now Defense Minister Li Shangfu hasn’t been seen in public for two weeks. Who’s going to win this unemployment race? China’s youth or Xi’s cabinet? #MysteryInBeijingBuilding”
According to NBC News, National Security Council officials warned the staff of the ambassador to Japan about the risks of his comments. They said it could jeopardize attempts by the Biden administration to repair rocky relations with China.
A White House official who spoke on condition of anonymity to NBC News said the ambassador’s posts are “not in keeping with the message coming out of this building.”
Rahm Emanuel has always been an incompetent grandstanding sh%$-show.
I don't blame him, I blame Biden and his minions for assuming that it would be any different.
