Diplomats Sound the Alarm as They Are Pushed Out in Droves

I want these people alarmed. They should be shaking with fear at the anger we normals feel against their Ivy League Liberal Democrat socialist globalist attitude and policies they tried to enact.

These people are what is wrong with America. The State Department is almost entirely filled with left-wing Democrat kooks. Fire them all. Clean house, get rational and sane people into those positions.

dismissals and early retirements that has decimated the State Department’s senior ranks.

Well 10% is a good start.

It used to be that there were always end of year layoff stories in the news, but these were always about the private sector, not the ruling class. Merry Christmas, former State Department employees!

“Afterward, Mr. Miller, a career Foreign Service officer, was pushed out, joining a parade of dismissals and early retirements that has decimated the State Department’s senior ranks.”

Being ‘senior’ doesn’t mean a whole lot in a dysfunctional department.

Isn’t it!

The department has needed a good sanitation effort for decades.

This is one of the not so well known benefits of Trump’s tenure in the White House.

Trump himself is leaving a lot of government positions open these days.

Even Melania cut back the FLOTUS staff.

These folks know the value of money.

A penny saved is a penny earned.

Oh, the huge manatee of government employees being laid off!!

And after the grand job they did helping North Korea go nuclear, making Libya a failed state that now has a slave market, destabilizing Yemen [Obama’s “model”, remember?] so badly that it’s now bordering on becoming the worst humanitarian crisis, sending pallets of currency to terrorist nation Iran in unmarked planes then hiding and lying about it, disrespecting our ally Israel signaling her enemies to increase aggression, etc.

Yes, fire all of these leftist America haters. They are not useless; they America’s enemies.

““The United States is at the center of every crisis around the world, and you simply cannot be effective if you don’t have assistant secretaries and ambassadors in place,” said R. Nicholas Burns, a retired career diplomat who was an under secretary of state for President George W. Bush. “It shows a disdain for diplomacy.””

It shows disdain for diplomacy, or more correctly disdain for Marxists posing as “diplomats!”

That’s not “the alarm.” That’s the sucking, oozing sound of the swamp being drained of deep state do-nothing kleptocrats at Foggy Bottom....
