State Department diplomats are circulating a memo objecting to President Trump’s executive order last week to suspend the nation’s refugee program and deny U.S. entry to citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries in the Middle East.
The document is destined for what’s known as the State Department’s “dissent channel,” which was set up during the Vietnam War as a way for diplomats to signal their disagreement on foreign policy decisions to senior management. The communications are typically private.
It is not known whether the memo has been submitted yet to Acting Secretary of State Thomas Shannon, a holdover from the Obama administration who is in charge of the department until a replacement is named. The Senate is expected to confirm Rex Tillerson, a former ExxonMobil executive who is designated for the job.

We have the capacity to induct a lot of resistors to choke off this flow, currently on the
left................
The State department needs a top-to-bottom lefty cleansing.
Probably hard to fire them but they don't need to be kept at State Department. There must be some job in the Aleutian islands that needs manning by a civil servant whose conscience prevents him from implementing the Presiden't foreign policy, right?
Spicer just said in his presser that the State Dept employees can get with Trump’s program or quit. BOOM
Awww! Isn’t that CUTE?
Government employees are having a hissy fit, and think they have job security.
ColdOne is it going to take ANOTHER 9/11 to wake these BASDARDS up??? What the HELL is wrong with these people!!!!
BASDARDS=BASTARDS
They will never wake up. IMO
Two words: Pink slips.
Good. This makes it easier to drain the swamp. We know who goes first.
They see themselves as an unelected resistance to the elected administration. They are holdouts still loyal to the president in exile Barack Obama. They communicate and collude with other
Libs to thwart the implemented policies. They do not believe in a peaceful transfer of power and should be terminated for engaging in partisan politicking (Twitter) on ‘company’ time.
Are these the few that Trump kept on (temporarily)?
#You’reFired #DrainTheSwamp
If the State Department is laced with leftists that need to be purged, then those who complain may be helpful.
Republicans in the past have failed to purge their departments, other than a few cabinet posts. This has been a boon to the Democrats since the Clintons took office.
Failure of past Republicans to purge government offices supports Michael Savage's claim that we had a dysfunctional oligarchy form of government until Trump took office.
the Snake Dept has been the worst part of the Washington DC swamp for a loooong time, full of Nazis and Nazi-sympathizers. GO TRUMP! DRAIN THE SWAMP!!!!!!!!! YIPPEE!
Hope the signed the memo or on Facebook. Not defending the constitutions oath.
They should look for other jobs. Maybe somewhere outside of the U.S.
DITTO ! Fire them or they will sabotage everything.
