It would concern me that 900 state department employees are troubled by protecting citizens.

I find it interesting that a Secretary of State profits financially from her position in Government ,
and many in the State Department have begun their own businesses using their State Dept. connections,
and yet, because there was no Investigator General nobody was looking over their shoulder.
They have truly become a "Shadow Government" unto themselves.

Yes, 900 new jobs for real American patriots who care about this country and its values. I hear Venezuela is looking for 900 new socialists for its fine government.

Tillerson WILL BE very happy to shrink the State dept. He is very used to working with a MUCH SMALLER staff in the private sector!!!

Appointees can be fired, career employees are pretty safe.

State Department:
13,000 Foreign Service employees
11,000 Civil Service employees
45,000 Foreign Service local employees
With a ~$70b budget.

900 of 69000 employees is 0.013% dissenting.. Bummer. They should get the state department down to 900 employees total.

the White House announces 900 new jobs will need to be filled...

I know! Let's give their jobs to (wait for it) Immigrants!

Since the Immigration Uber Alles groupies are so enamored of foreigners, let's see how they feel when they get outsourced!

Better yet: the new officeholders will all be white South African refugees from the venal and corrupt Zuma "administration"

That oughta send 'em through the roof

Good News. The incoming SoS has a jump-start on his purge list.

These Liberal airheads just put their hands up and begged to be “fired.” Good luck to these schmucks finding a job in the real world. I love it!! Bye, bye, don’t let the door slam you in the ass on the way out!

God willing, thousands more in DC will also beg to be fired so We The People can save millions in tax dollars.

LOL! It’s like they’re self-deporting.

President Trump just cut the State Dept staff by 900 without lifting a finger.
