Shortly after Trump took office, and before Rex Tillerson was even confirmed as Secretary of State, a slew of State Department officials were removed from their positions (or were forced to resign) as part of an effort to clean house at the State Department. The whole affair was haphazardly covered by the media, especially by Jeff Bezoss blog, which insinuated that the departures were an ongoing mass exodus of senior Foreign Service officers who dont want to stick around for the Trump era.
Further analysis revealed that the officials were actually removed from their positions shortly after Tillerson visited the State Department office in Foggy Bottom prior to his confirmation:
Any implication that that these four people quit is wrong, one senior State Department official said. These people are loyal to the secretary, the President and to the State Department. There is just not any attempt here to dis the President. People are not quitting and running away in disgust. This is the White House cleaning house.
And, just a few weeks after the fact, it appears we know why Tillerson was so quick to purge existing staffers: he just didnt trust them. It also appears his mistrust was more than justified.
On January 29th, United States Special Forces executed an operation inside Yemen, against al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), with the aim of gathering intelligence and killing leaders of the group. The raid was planned under the Obama administration, but the decision to execute the raid was punted to Trump, using the pretext of waiting for a low loom (moonless) night to execute the raid with maximum secrecy:
While the operation had been proposed, it was never green-lighted. Kahl said Obama felt going the mission would mark a significant escalation

One brother Abid had been working for congress since 2005. Did he have access to the DEVGRU operation that led to the shoot down of Extortion 17 on 8/6/11?
Wonder what they carried off when they were fired ?
This "senior official" needs to be next.....
This only connects if they are indicted or a fed criminal complaint is filed.
The digital evidence should be enough to follow from congressional servers direct to their workstations and login IDs so why wait?
.............Unless they are “current whereabouts unknown” and having some intense discussions with some Virginia farmboys, .........
Until that come to light, I remain skeptical.

After what we’ve seen over the past 8 years, I don’t think we need an explanation of why Mr. Tillerson - or anyone in the Trump administration - needs to clean house. The stench is thick and unmistakable.
It not only needs to be cleaned, but fumigated, repainted, repaired, and refurnished as well.
Captain Joseph R. John (Navy-Ret.) has stated that he believes the Muslim Brotherhood fifth column has infiltrated U.S. Government, and if he is correct, the Awan brothers could very well be a part of this infiltration.
“Odumbo has done soooooooooooooooooooooo much damage,...”
Very true. However, if not for the Congress shamefully abrogating their responsibilities, he couldn’t have done any damage at all.
We elected a Republican controlled Congress to put a stop to the obama nightmare. You know the rest of the story.
This begs the question, did Obama really quash the raid because he felt it would escalate the situation in Yemen or did Obama, knowing the information would get to Al-Qaeda, hand Trump a set-up?

Where are the Awan Brothers?
Are they out walking the streets?
Are they in the USA?
...set-up a leak
That is a sinister thought.
You forgot Huma.... the most damaging spy of them all.
If Tillerson found the spy ring that quickly, everyone knew they were there and tolerated them.
Should have been arrested and dropped into a maximum security hole somewhere in the interest of national security until such time they can be proven innocent. I know this goes against the grain of what we usually want to see happen but damn it one of our best died and if these 3 muzzie had anything to do with it then they need to die as well.
Surely you meant to say why are they NOT arrested and in jail for treason?
An even more relevant question is WHY has Hussein Obama not been arrested and in jail charged with treason?
Can Americans really be this stupid? Muslim infiltrate Obama administration?
Obama brought in Muslim terrorists into his "administration" because Obama has always been working for ISIS and the takeover of the west by Islam.
Hussein's father and step father were Muslims
Hussein's school records show he was raised a Muslim in Indonesia
ETC for pages and pages
Thanks.
It looks like there is some confusion — perhaps not with each of you but some people are confusing the Awan brothers and the muslim woman that were spying in Congress with the four State Department slime balls this article is about. It is two separate groups of infiltrators.
Wonder if the Awan brothers are being warehoused in the same facility with Eric Braverman?
It was the clinton Administration that first brought muslims into the White House!
Hillary said that her interest in islam started with one of Chelsea’s school projects. If you believe that, I have a nice bridge connecting two boroughs in NYC to sell you!
George W Bush did not clean these muzzies out, and after 9/11, called islam “the religion of peace”. Could that have been due to the Bush family’s longstanding business relationship with the Saudis?
obama doubled down on supporting and colluding with our Muhammadan enemies, and Hillary and the rest of her warmonger harpies helped them a lot. I agree with you that obama is NOT on our side, even though he did not start the WH muslim collusion!!
no one quickie little round of terminations could possibly fix the enormity of the SnakeDept IslamoNazi problem
an even bigger anti-American, pro-Islamic/IslamoNazi SWAMPLOAD of dangerous infiltrators exists within the Snake Department, seriously embedded in there for years....
hang on... if DJT and his man are sincere THEN THERE’S A LOT MORE SWAMP-DRAINING yet to come!
