Just to be clear, Biden is still keeping him as special counsel until the Durham Report is complete (probably still be working on it when Trump is reelected in 2024 haha). Like dozens of other U.S Attorneys, he has been asked to resign. Durham is only resigning from his Connecticut U.S Attorney role.
It's a lot harder to remove a special attorney. There are safeguards in place to prevent Presidents from getting rid of special attorney's. I think congress has to vote on it.
