President-elect Donald Trump has fired,effective Inauguration Day January 20, every U.S. ambassador politically appointed by President Barack Obama, according to a report published Thursday night by the New York Times.

The Times reports the State Department sent out a notice on December 23 informing the ambassadors of Trump’s order. The move sent shock waves through the diplomatic corps as some ambassadors in previous transitions had been given time to leave their post for personal convenience.

Jews always say that the State Dept. is a nest of Jew haters, anti Israeli anti Zionists.

They need to vet the staff and get rid of all the pro fake Palestinian SOB’s.

Apparently the concern is that new ambassadors have to be approved by the Senate, so if there is any delay in approvals, we could be without an ambassador in those countries for some period of time.

What they fail to realize is that this is Trump strategy — it puts pressure on the Senate to approve his choices quickly.

I still hope to see him leaving the Inauguration and signing a bunch of stuff the same day — lists of ambassadors, judges, EO’s rescinded, Obamacare repeal, tax reform, Wall construction, ... Move so fast, Senate Dims have no chance to drag out anything or the lying MSM to focus on any one issue.

It was initially why I supported Trump as our candidate. I was hoping he’d use his catch phrase on half of D.C.

Yes. You know. Those people who make sure America’s interests overseas come last. Trump should go beyond just the political appointees and clean house on the “career” diplomats, too. Anybody that did not resign in disgust of Obama’s policies cannot be trusted with America’s interests.

Transfer them all into new very prestigious study groups within whatever agencies they work for. If they can’t be fired, put them metaphorical rubber rooms and forget about them.

I’ll be glad to see the ambassador to the Czech Republic go. He has been actively supporting gay rights, the gay parade there, hosting workshops, etc. Of all the things the U.S. could participate in! What’s with Obama and pushing his homosexual agenda all over the world?

Congress has the power to expand the number of courts, though. The backlog of cases awaiting trial would be reduced and Trump could fill all those additional courts with conservative constitutionalist judges. Young ones. Then as the old Dim judges retire and the backlog of cases drops, reduce the number of courts again and the conservative judges would be all that is left.

Especially in the area of Administrative Law judges that hear immigration cases, a huge expansion is needed to speed the deportations.

Okay. I’m a musician. Our sound man got married, When he retuned from his honeymoon , I called and got his answering machine, I just started riffing. In a Pakistani accent, “Oh! This is Dr, Bogus Pachysandra from the Cleveland Free Sex Clinic. Don’t touch that thing! Dom’t let anybody touch that thing! I’m a doctor and I won’t touch that thing!” Then I hung up. Bob’s new bride got to the answering machine before he got home, They had quite a heated conversation, for about an hour, before they realized it was me. They called me, laughing their butts off!
It was just stage humor. Practical joke!

“May this phrase become one of the most oft repeated in Trump’s upcoming eight years.”

Which one:

1. President-elect Donald Trump has fired ...

2. The move sent shock waves through ...

3. Both ...

“Unless they’re delusional, they should have all started packing 11/8.”

exactly. that would give them 10 weeks, which is plenty of time to get their affairs in order.

To quote Mrs Bill Clinton showing she is anti-Sematic, she hates those “F’n Jew bastards!”

She of course is an equal opportunity racist having used the “n” word liberally in her life.

In ‘96 when at an event, a server was late bringing in cookies.

After he brought them in and left, Hillary said “What’s that n—-r doing in here?”

That’s a standard racist line. I head similar when working in the south years ago.

Racists minds can’t handle that blacks and Jews can be anywhere they want.

Anything that the Bible shows as destructive to a person, or wrong in other ways, is added to a list of things that Obama will push and support.
