The State Department is riddled with career staffers and diplomats who swing on the left side of the jungle. They’ve been like this for decades. They will be very difficult to get rid of.
I am reminded of a set of lyrics from the legendary Frank Zappa:
We are millions and millions, we're comin' to getcha
We're protected by unions, so don't let it upset ya,
Can't escape the conclusion that it's probably God's will
that civilization will grind to a standstill,
And we are the people who will make it all happen
while your children are sleepin' and your puppy is crappin'
You might call us 'flakes', or something else you might coin us,
we know you're so greedy that you'll probably join us...
Since at least the 1950’s. It would take years to flush them out.
