FNC correspondent Peter Doocy on Thursday asked White House national security spokesman John Kirby who is going to get fired following the release of the White House Afghanistan report.

"John, who's going to get fired over this?" Doocy bluntly asked.

"Peter, the purpose of the document that we're putting out today, is to sort of collate the chief reviews and findings of the agencies that did after-action reviews. The purpose of it is not accountability," Kirby responded.
