Upon reading the article, together with the CNN update, it would appear that the Washington Post was publishing more “fake” news. No surprise there.
So, instead of a rebellion against Trump within the senior levels at State, we now have Trump deciding he wants to put his own people in there so he accepted their resignations which they tendered as required at the beginning of any administration because they serve at the President’s pleasure.
The original version: Senior State management rebels against Trump.
The corrected version: Trump replaces senior management at State.
This is what we’re up against. Blatant lying by the press to make Trump look bad.
I have always found Zero Hedge to be a reliable news source. My observation of the state department over the last eight years leads me to believe that they felt that they were accountable to no one. I think they presented a problem to the President and would not have followed his orders. The globalist are crying foul over President Trump’s America First plan. The Clinton/Kerry staff need to be removed!
