Former top Trump aide Kellyanne Conway refuses President Biden's request to resign from an Air Force Academy advisory board.

"News reports suggest you have made the same demand of other men and women who were duly appointed to service academy boards," she said in the letter addressed to Biden, later adding:"The result is that faithful and willing public servants will be discouraged or thwarted from service. Our service academies will risk being further politicized and polarized."

Military academies, including the U.S. Military Academy, the Air Force Academy and the Naval Academy, have nonpartisan advisory panels made up of presidential and congressional appointees who serve three-year terms. The boards give the schools nonbinding advice about matters like curriculum and student resources.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki confirmed Wednesday that Biden had asked several appointees from the previous administration, such as Conway and former press secretary Sean Spicer, to resign from their positions on various service academy boards. Spicer, who also questioned the decision in aPsaki said the move was intended"to ensure you have nominees and people serving on these boards who are qualified to serve on them and who are aligned with your values.

She added:"I will let others evaluate whether they think Kellyanne Conway and Sean Spicer and others were qualified or not political to serve on these boards. But the president's qualification requirements are not your party registration. They are whether you're qualified to serve and whether you're aligned with the values of this administration."

Other top officials whose resignations were requested include former Trump national security adviser H.R. McMaster, according to reports, and former White House budget director Russ Vought. Vought said in a tweet that he will not step down.

Russian spy POS

He can’t fire them . They have a leagal 3 year term. It’s pure partisan politics. NBC and it’s liberal politics.

What a waste of unparalleled military expertise sacking Ms Conway is. O dear me.

She was fired yesterday.

Get out …no one wants you

'Conway fired.' honestheadlines

Hey Kels:

Again who truly cares ?

Trump hired you, Biden fired you🤷‍♀️…What don’t you understand?

Zombie Barbie should have been fired a long time ago.

She's been fired. This headline is just a cheap trick to get clicks at this point

What was she doing on a military board in the first place?

Is that the first time she refused a man for anything?

Then remove her.

Not worthy of a news item.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. BUH BYE!!!

There's two options for her: resign or be fired. She doesn't deserve to be on a military academy board. Like wtf is she doing there.

You're fired!!

She was fired. Story is over.

She can refuse to quit. But she then shall be fired. KellyanneConway

she’s fired either way. she just needed to make a production out of it, it’s been a while since she’s been in the news.

She proved she doesn’t have the temperament to be on a military advisory board.

You left out the most important headline: SHE’S FIRED!

It's satisfying knowing that she was fired last night from a mostly symbolic position because most of us still have standards, of which, she abandoned long ago.

So she was FIRED!

Your tax dollars at work

So long, Felicia!

She was fired hours before you posted this. Are you so desperate for likes you would deliberately post misleading information hours after the fact, or are you trying to deceive your Asian and European with clickbait in order to get attention?

Than she’ll be fired. Like Trump used to say ‘your fired ‘ good bye

Your fired

Kellyanne, You are fired 😳

🔥 her!

I'm surprised she wasn't fired sooner. It's only been almost 8 months.

Can she refuse?

That’s petty

?: Trump fired a number of appointees to appoint these people. So, how is Biden firing them any different?

Trump spy Kelly Calhoon (yeah I know) needs to Leave the post her ex- pres was TOLD to assign her that she pretended to treasure.
