Let’s just take a look at the world their expertise has given us...
Wait...
Nevermind

“...Arrogant, university educated ‘know-nothings’ who thought they knew the answers to ‘everything’”

Gee...Hillary must have been right at home there.

We can only hope that with the departure of these failed State Department officials, their failed policies will be swept out along with them.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the headline. Literally the only two positive things I can say about these fools are: 1) thanks for saving us the trouble of firing you; 2) thanks for showing us what doesn't work.

I believe they should all be looking not just for a new job but an entire career change. Politics, influence, diplomacy...definitely, demonstrably not things they are good at. I would say used car salesman but even they have to be good with people. Maybe the best bet for these failed flunkies from State would be as toll collectors or something similar. That way they'd have only the briefest, most superficial interaction with people, yet they'd still get to handle money every day.

Where do they think they are going to market their expertise outside the state department?

They probably need more pimps and coke consumers in Central America.

If very many leave then the welfare roles are sure to grow.

Not another dime. Many of them need to be deported or incarcerated.

Over two generations, layer upon layer of clock-punchers, each with the same “expertise” has put us in exactly this place where they blame US policies for other nationals violence. Only a high priced northeast, or west coast collegiate degree can imbue one with such hatred for your own country.

complete and utter disdain for our expertise

You mean like allowing N Korea nuclear weapons and ICBMs?

You mean like allowing Iran nuclear weapons?

You mean like allowing the Secretary of State Clinton to profit for human disasters such as Haiti earthquake?

I could go on and on, but I have a real job to go to where they expect results that are positive.

The arrogance of a apparatchiks in Washington D.C.

They substitute “length of experience” when no matter their length of service they, from the start, have been practicing their own non-realistic world view.

The Middle East is the best example. Seventy years of U.S. foreign policy has not changed the Middle East nor changed the attitudes toward the U.S. among the people of the states in the Middle East.

Alan B. Krueger, the Princeton economist, tested the widespread assumption that poverty was a key factor in the making of a terrorist.

Islam is THE key factor in the making of a terrorist.

Most will become teachers where they will be able to impress young heads full of mush with the importance of laughing at Trump.

You can bet good money that Hillary put many, many, many of her factotums on the State Dept payroll. All of them long-gone-----but cashing US govt paychecks, as we type.

The list of no-show payees could include Huma, Cheryl Mills, David Domenici (Cheryl's live in), Anthony weiner, Bill and Chelsea Clinton and Chelsea's unemployed spouse, Mark Mezvinsky, Sid Blumenthal, John Podesta, Jennifer Palmeri, etc, etc, etc.

=========================================

The Obama/Hillary-era State Dept books need forensic audits pronto. Here's the tip of the iceberg:

<><> find the 6 billion tax dollars missing from the S/D's contractor's fund.

<><> Hillary and Obama both dipped into the State Dept's Millenium Challenge Slush Fund---

--------Hillary gave 78 million Millenium tax dollars to her cronies Sid Blumenthal and ex-Amb Joe wilson (Valerie Plame's hubby)---

------Obama gave Michelle 100 million Millenium tax dollars to "teach Muslim girls" in Morocco (the millions to be "held" by the Obama Foundation).

<><> Huma got millions of tax dollars for her cousin, (AKA the Serial Swindler), that promptly "disappeared."

<><> Clinton aide Cheryl Mills, a govt employee, had a tax-paid development going in Sub-Sahara Africa at the same time.
