Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is cleaning house at the State Department, according to a report.

Staffers in the offices of deputy secretary of state for management and resources as well as counselor were shown the door Thursday, according to CBS News.

Many of those let go were on the building’s seventh floor — top-floor bigs — a symbolically important sign to the rest of the diplomatic corps that their new boss has different priorities than the last one.

Good, exactly what has been needed for quite some time.

The State Dept. has been filled with domestic enemies and needs a good purge.

Hear that hollow, gurgling sound? That’s the sound of the swamp being drained.

I heard on Maria Bartiromo’s show this morning that they let seven officials go. Seven is not quite the bloodbath that I’m looking forward to but it’s a start!

Like saying about the 1000 lawyers chained together under water, it’s a good start.

Use plenty of Obama and Hitlery stain remover and air deodorizer. Maybe even just a good, old fashioned steam cleaning would work as well.

State has been a viper’s’ nest of anti-Americanism for decades.

There NEEDS to be a thorough blood bath, house-cleaning, purge of anyone with any allegiance to BHO.
