The State department needs a top-to-bottom lefty cleansing.

The State Department has been the worst part of the DC Swamp for well over a century!

If bureaucrats in the executive branch are not willing to carry out the directives of the president, then they should not be protected by the Civil Service act and should be fired.

Probably hard to fire them but they don't need to be kept at State Department. There must be some job in the Aleutian islands that needs manning by a civil servant whose conscience prevents him from implementing the Presiden't foreign policy, right?

Spicer just said in his presser that the State Dept employees can get with Trump’s program or quit. BOOM

Good. This makes it easier to drain the swamp. We know who goes first.

They see themselves as an unelected resistance to the elected administration. They are holdouts still loyal to the president in exile Barack Obama. They communicate and collude with other
Libs to thwart the implemented policies. They do not believe in a peaceful transfer of power and should be terminated for engaging in partisan politicking (Twitter) on ‘company’ time.

The document is destined for what’s known as the State Department’s “dissent channel,” which was set up during the Vietnam War as a way for diplomats to signal their disagreement on foreign policy decisions to senior management. The communications are typically private.

If the State Department is laced with leftists that need to be purged, then those who complain may be helpful.

Republicans in the past have failed to purge their departments, other than a few cabinet posts. This has been a boon to the Democrats since the Clintons took office.

Failure of past Republicans to purge government offices supports Michael Savage's claim that we had a dysfunctional oligarchy form of government until Trump took office.

They should look for other jobs. Maybe somewhere outside of the U.S.
