ecretary of State Antony Blinken has been receiving a major pummelling online after reports emerged that he held therapy cry sessions for White House employees following President-elect Donald Trump‘s election victory.
The therapy sessions the State Department held for employees dealing with election fallout.
An internal State Department email titled “Managing stress during change” encourages employees to attend a one-hour session to discuss their feelings about the election results.
In other words, White House staff experiencing a major flare ups of TDS symptoms can come and have a group cry together at the expense of the American taxpayer.
“Change is a constant in our lives, but it can often bring about stress and uncertainty,” the email said.
“Join us for an insightful webinar where we delve into effective stress management techniques to help you navigate these challenging times.”
“This session will provide tips and practical strategies for managing stress and maintaining your well being.”
Rep. Darell Issa (R-CA), a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, mocked the sessions, calling them “unacceptable” for the State Department to tolerate this.
“It is disturbing that ostensibly nonpartisan government officials would suffer a personal meltdown over the results of a free and fair election, something the United States champions around the world,” Issa wrote in a letter to Blinken.
“It is unacceptable that the Department accommodates this behavior and subsidizes it with taxpayer dollars.”
“The mental health of our foreign service personnel is important, but the Department has no obligation to indulge and promote the leftist political predilections of its employees and soothe their frayed nerves because of the good-faith votes of—and at the personal expense of—the American taxpayers,” he continued.
Issa took it further:
“The mere fact that the Department is hosting these sessions raises significant questions about the willingness of its personnel to implement the lawful policy priorities that the American people elected President Trump to pursue and implement,” the letter said.
“The Trump Administration has a mandate for wholesale change in the foreign policy arena, and if foreign service officers cannot follow through on the American people’s preferences, they should resign and seek a political appointment in the next Democrat administration.”
“receiving a major pummelling online”
Far from good enough IMO.
Fire everyone possible at the State Dept. Nothing but a rat’s nest of corrupt leftists.
State badly needs a flushing of the elites who staff it and exercise power without accountability. Some of these people are literally criminals - the activity surrounding the Benghazi outrage was never really explained and neither was exactly why Libya had to be plunged into a civil war. State Department involvement in the abrogation of the peace treaty that led to the Afghanistan evacuation debacle is an item of considerable interest, as is the curious sign-off of national resources that was Uranium One. The list is too long to be confined into a single post.
Were Winken and Nod also there to console the screamin’ banshees? LOL! Morons are a dime a dozen in this country these days. Morons with “college diplomas” are even cheaper.
Send this guy to Turkey with a bag of coke strapped to his chest.
Snowflakes gotta melt.
That’s what snowflakes do.
This gives some insight into why the the deep-state is getting us into losing and embarrassing situations around the world.
It figures...a snowflake is in charge of dealing with Putin and wants Biden to okay giving Ukraine nukes.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
How vewwy vewwy sad.
The therapy sessions the State Department held for employees dealing with election fallout.
Well that esplane how things have been going huh Lucy.
Finally purging Foggy Bottom of its Arabists and leftist retards in general will be a big undertaking.
Seriously? Is everyone in the Biden adm. an immature moron?
Diplomacy has been dead under Joe Biden.... Blinken is the worst SecState in history - literally. He does not know what diplomacy is, and when he shows up he preaches and makes threats... he should have been SecDef.
When I joined State we were told that we were the finest America has to offer, that we were elite individuals, the cream of the crop, the smartest in every room, and because the US does not have royality that we are the Royality. I am not lying. It is beyond jump pumping BS into new employees ears, but they actually believe this through and through in the Department of State foreign service.
Pretty much...........
“Antony Blinken has been receiving a major pummelling online after reports emerged that he held therapy cry sessions for White House employees”
He always appeared to be on the verge of crying anyway.
Politics is totally the wrong game for people like that. He^@, if Conservatives can sit out 12 years of bumbling and ruinous Liberal Presidencies, then Liberals can sure live through a Trump WH
