Demonstrating just how ideologically alligned with the Obama administration was the entire US State Department, moments ago the WaPo reported that "the entire senior level of management officials resigned Wednesday, part of an ongoing mass exodus of senior foreign service officers who don’t want to stick around for the Trump era."

The Swamp! She is draining!..............it’s a wonderful sight!..................
maybe they should be barred from travel to any country without an extradition treaty... just in case
SOMEONE has to know where $6 billion was spent by HilLIARy.
I think that’s referred to as a “Trash Compactor!”
There are employment oportunities with ISIS, Al Qaeda and the PLA more in keeping with their personal politics.
Read this for what it is -
Kennedy was not going to keep his job and they [the administration] indicated this in such a way to convince hmi to resign. The others who resigned with him were no doubt in his faction at the State Department.
Meaning, they have the goods on him on obstructing Justice and perjury and leveraged him out along with his top allies.
Now we need something like this in the Justice department.
They just saved Trump a lot of aggravation and effort to remove them! They actually did Trump and the country a big favor! Bravo Mr. President!
Demonstrating just how ideologically alligned with the Obama administration was the entire US State Department, moments ago the WaPo reported that “the entire senior level of management officials resigned Wednesday, part of an ongoing mass exodus of senior foreign service officers who don’t want to stick around for the Trump era.”
The mass resignation took place as Rex Tillerson was inside the State Department’s headquarters in Foggy Bottom on Wednesday, taking meetings and getting the lay of the land.
According to WaPo’s Josh Rogin who suddenly has no more senior level sources left at State:
“I reported Wednesday morning that the Trump team was narrowing its search for his No. 2, and that it was looking to replace the State Department’s long-serving undersecretary for management, Patrick Kennedy. Kennedy, who has been in that job for nine years, was actively involved in the transition and was angling to keep that job under Tillerson, three State Department officials told me.”
Then suddenly on Wednesday afternoon, Kennedy and three of his top officials resigned unexpectedly, four State Department officials confirmed. Assistant Secretary of State for Administration Joyce Anne Barr, Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs Michele Bond and Ambassador Gentry O. Smith, director of the Office of Foreign Missions, followed him out the door. All are career foreign service officers who have served under both Republican and Democratic administrations.
Additionally, “Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security Gregory Starr retired Jan. 20, and the director of the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations, Lydia Muniz, departed the same day. That amounts to a near-complete housecleaning of all the senior officials that deal with managing the State Department, its overseas posts and its people.”
“It’s the single biggest simultaneous departure of institutional memory that anyone can remember, and that’s incredibly difficult to replicate,” said David Wade, who served as State Department chief of staff under Secretary of State John Kerry. “Department expertise in security, management, administrative and consular positions in particular are very difficult to replicate and particularly difficult to find in the private sector.”
Resigning doesn’t make them immune to future prosecution...
WOOHOO!!!!
I have a friend at State, he did not paint a good picture of the environment there. I hope this makes things easier for him.
It’s fixed

My Thanks - Admin Mod!
A damned good start!
LOL I’m sure there are still remnants of these pukes still lurking around the building. At least those who resigned had the audacity to do so. We still have a lot of draining to do.
Self draining swamp.
What a shame. /s
Good. The garbage took itself out!
Winning!!
CNN sources. Really. How often has CNN referred to their sources at State Department at odds with President Trump as Senior personnel/management/staff at the State Department?
Hahahaah!!!
