I’m reading mixed reports. There are reports that they had been fired rather than having had resigned. Reports even suggest that Patrick Kennedy was looking to stay on.

I’m also under the impression that if Trump’s intention was to keep them on, then it was in the capacity of warm bodies for the sake of a smooth transition.

Why does this make his job more difficult? I think it’s a blessing, kind of like scraping a gooshy dogturd off the sole of your shoe. Besides, Trump does not react negatively to something the MSM calls “difficult”.

That deserves an investigation. And I doubt it would take all that much work. Having been a contractor for those assclowns, I’ve heard their conversations. All anyone has to do, is get the list of all the contractors that the State Dept and USAID, handed money out to. Then follow that paper trail to their million dollar homes and start putting asses in prison.

This is #FakeNews by the Washington Post.

The four officials who resigned are with the Undersecretary for Management, as in management of employees and basic logistics (hiring, EEOC, complying with civil service regs, union grievances, keeping the toilets clean and the lawns mowed, keeping the computers secure, communications, etc). It does not set policy.

It is rather minor part of the State Department. See the four yellow circles helow.

The WaPo breathlessly hyped it by writing rather misleadingly that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson’s job running the State Department just got considerably more difficult. The entire senior level of management officials resigned Wednesday, part of an ongoing mass exodus of senior Foreign Service officers who don’t want to stick around for the Trump era. Tillerson's job actually got easier. Why? Because he can now put his own people in for dealing with the civil service, govt unions, etc.

The truth is that 'Management' is a rather minor section. It is internal and does not set policy. The WaPo is blowing it way out of proportion by not explaining what the Undersecretary of Management actually does and in making it seem more important than it actually is on the org chart.
