Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is cleaning house at the State Department, according to a report.
Staffers in the offices of deputy secretary of state for management and resources as well as counselor were shown the door Thursday, according to CBS News.
Many of those let go were on the buildings seventh floor top-floor bigs a symbolically important sign to the rest of the diplomatic corps that their new boss has different priorities than the last one.
This weeks round of firings marks the second time State Department personnel have been cleared out since President Trump took office last month.

Great Post! The list is so long that people have a tendency to forget the horrors the left enacts against our country. We need to keep reminding them until they permanently recognize the threats.
Thank you.
No, the president can’t change the personnel regulations. The Fed govt has a union and it has contracts, and those contracts quote the regs.
Look, this isn’t even debateable. He can remove them from positions. He can’t cut pay, he can’t relocate them more than 50 miles from previous place of work, he can’t make working conditions horrible. All that is lawsuits he would lose.
You guys only have a vague notion of what federal employee regs are and what the unions secured. It’s far worse than you think. YOU CAN’T DO THESE THINGS. The courts have to adjudicate by rule of contract law and these things are all in contracts.
Hell, you can’t even get pensions cut without the courts saying no. You think you can get people put into buildings with no facilities? You have no clue.
You’re very welcome. Love it when like minds are recognized.
“Hear that hollow, gurgling sound? Thats the sound of the swamp being drained.”
- this is now my new ring tone.
and the swamp gets drained a tiny bit more ...
I would hardly call four firings a bloodbath.
Maybe that is why so many federal people associated with Clintons were terminated..... really terminated..KAPOWWWW.
Then we should change the law. No union should be allowed to form that goes against “We the people.” Government workers should never be allowed to unionize.
Fire more of them. We don’t just need a “bloodbath”, we need an abbatoir!
Sweet
Best one I witnessed was a senior level manager. Got met in the parking lot by HR. Had him sign the paperwork and they gave him his personal stuff from his office. He deserved it.
Don’t Let The Door Hit You On The Way Out!
Excellent.
Dont believe the Lying Leftist Media. They are presumed to be lying and we should assume that what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.
I also add this about posting on FR...
We should find reliable sources that have already deconstructed the lie and replaced it with the truth and with a headline that says the truth. We need much more of that on FR IMO. The key is the headline and the first few sentences because not everyone has time to drill down. The endless stream of negative, lying headlines sabotages our purpose IMO.
Cheers.
Fedora, is that YOU?

Have a fire drill, and change the locks before the ‘all clear.’

They were all appointees and every new admin brings in their own people. This is just a non-story.
Good. Corrupt, lazy and incompetent. Always trying to sell us into wars to line their own pockets and their globalist anti western agenda. State Dept all the way through to every Intel agency. CLEAN IT UP!
