He said he has run the state dept. and when all is said and done it will be very easy to clean 10k personnel out. That is what needs to happen and is likely happening behind the scenes.
Draining the swamp.
Good, State has needed a good cleaning out for a while. I am sure that this is warming the cockles of Edward Luttwak’s heart. He is a military strategist, and was a prof of mine at Georgetown in about 1982. He, uh, didn’t have much good to say about State. In fact, he was probably only half kidding when he told us that the very best single thing that President Reagan could do to improve our foreign policy would be to:
1) Order the Army Corps of Engineers to dig a tunnel from somewhere in Virginia, underneath the Potomac River, and terminating underneath Foggy Bottom, and to have them dig a large chamber at the terminus. This would have to be done so as not to be detected.
2) When the tunnel was completed, order the chamber to be filled with high explosives, and the rest of the tunnel to be back-filled.
3) When that was done, order the explosives to be blown at the precise time when every single key person at DOS was at a meeting on the 7th Floor, save Alexander Haig (then the Secretary).
I’m at a loss to explain why that wouldn’t be a good idea right now...and I’m ALSO only half-kidding. Of course, firing the one-worlder SOBs works, too, but it is not as quick as the other method.
Maybe we’ll have to cal the State Dept something besides Foggy Bottom....they’ll need a crane to remove the huge dark cauldron though
After being fired, some of them should be placed under surveillance.
Fun to watch.

Rex has very high integrity, is super intelligent, knows how to run a tight ship, and expects excellence. He has proven it.
I am thrilled to see the first out the door are the highest level people, which shows the rest of the staff, no-one is safe if you don’t measure up.
Rex will not be afraid to cleaning house as long and as deep as it takes to achieve the goals.
Marie Harf saw it coming and took a job at Fox News. And if marie Harf saw the cleaning coming, surely the rest of these little utopian liberal fascists must have known that their days were short.
Fact is that no one would hire them, and they all will have difficulty getting jobs anywhere outside of the liberal fascist fold. They likely will go to work for the Obama anti-Trump community organizing network.
The downside is that I still have to listen to Marie Harf.
there are a lot of us who would like to help President Trump Drain the Swamp and MAGA
but (and its understandable, alas) the application procedure is a bitch
Im sure he didn’t impose such a ridculous app review process at his company when he built it up to be so successful
he’s gonna lose out on a whole lot of talent if he keeps this (standard for quite a long time) federal govt application and review procedure (as he may feel he must, we will see)....
he is gonna lose out on a lot of hard-working, highly qualified potential assistants...nonetheless
Excellent. Now, what’s POMPEO doing (besides stabbing President Trump in the back)?
According to the article, all former political appointees are being axed. Could we clone this guy, and have him head up some of the other bureaucracies?
Great news. The State Dept. has been riddled with commies since the 1940s.
Clean it up Rex.
and the swamp gets drained a tiny bit more ...
I would hardly call four firings a bloodbath.
Fire more of them. We don’t just need a “bloodbath”, we need an abbatoir!
Sweet
Excellent.

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

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!
