State Department diplomats are circulating a memo objecting to President Trump’s executive order last week to suspend the nation’s refugee program and deny U.S. entry to citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries in the Middle East.
The document is destined for what’s known as the State Department’s “dissent channel,” which was set up during the Vietnam War as a way for diplomats to signal their disagreement on foreign policy decisions to senior management. The communications are typically private.
It is not known whether the memo has been submitted yet to Acting Secretary of State Thomas Shannon, a holdover from the Obama administration who is in charge of the department until a replacement is named. The Senate is expected to confirm Rex Tillerson, a former ExxonMobil executive who is designated for the job.

Fire everyone who signs it FOR CAUSE.
Sounds like the Open Door HR Policy.
Feel free to speak openly (and short-circuit your career in the process)
Great. We have a list of people to transfer to the outermost areas of the most filthy, bug infested areas of the earth
Fire The Lot Of Them!
The Trump team needs to get their hands on this and fire every single signee.
If bureaucrats in the executive branch are not willing to carry out the directives of the president, then they should not be protected by the Civil Service act and should be fired.
Subversion and subterfuge..................
Hope they are dumb enough to sign it.
So, it’s the same policy as Obama’s?
They need to get rid of the same sour pusses over at EPA, then over hall the state dept.
Anyone signing the petition gets sacked.
Looks like there might be some goobermint jobs opening up after the freeze.
The state department is replete with LIB losers. It has been so for decades. This is no surprise.
I don’t mind if people in a job speak their minds to those in charge - you cannot have a good organization with a bunch of yes-men as underlings.
OTOH, the likelihood is that these people are just Obama holdovers...in which case, fire them all. Don’t allow them to resign, FIRE THEM!
Oh, and if they are the typical careerist, don’t upset OUR applecart types, then also fire them.
Finally, if Tillerson isn’t confirmed THIS WEEK, then fire these guys and gals.
Ulaanbaatar (Ulan Bator) is nice this time of year................
It’s -21°F there right now...............
Get over it.
If you can't get over it, I will accept your resignation.
Ditto.
its the govt employees and libtards that want us to die at the hands of the muzzies.
File it in “File 13”
