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 building’s 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 week’s round of firings marks the second time State Department personnel have been cleared out since President Trump took office last month.

Good start covering the things that need to change.
Shame
Expose the rascals
Bring back real meaningful punishment
Purchase a boat load of canes from Singapore
Seven is not quite the bloodbath that I’m looking forward to but it’s a start!
How did you conclude that I thought that was the end of the purge? I called it a good start.
I hope that they escorted them out of the building without they’re having the opportunity to shred or wipe.
Hate to break it, but unless they are retirement age, they will not be unemployed. They will still work at State in different jobs.
I’m not even sure this story isn’t confusing the two rounds of firings/
Haig was a great choice for S of S.
However, he didn’t go in with the drain the swamp attitude like Trump/T Rex.
Which is why he didn’t last.
ALL who have worked for the overthrow of our government, servants of Globalism are not worthy of a job. Turn about is fair play. They should be tried and in some cases hung for subversion and traitorous acts.
Greatly reduce their pay, stick them in uniforms and assign them to clean toilets, scrub outsides of buildings, side walks etc, all sorts of wonderful ways they can truly work for their paycheck since many have been getting paid for very little real work for years.
Excellent. Now, what’s POMPEO doing (besides stabbing President Trump in the back)?
Anyone with subversive, such as communist, activities should be monitored by law enforcement.
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.
Fox keeps a stable or leftist "contributors" on hand to provide an opposition view. They usually don't fare that well.
They're sort of what the Washington Generals were to the Harlem Globe Trotters.
>>You would not say that unless you know what it is like to be unemployed. I would not wish unemployment on my worst enemy.
How can you expect mercy when you have none?<<
The Federal Government is about 5 times bigger than it should be. That is a fact. It is doing things never considered NOR AUTHORIZED by the United States Constitution.
The only way to fix it in most cases is to close it down. And we know that many of these people spend their day moving stuff from the in basked to the out basket, or the electronic equivalent thereof. They add no value to us, the taxpayers.
Many are leftists and hate the USA even as they get their paycheck from it.
If they are good at a useful task, they will be able to fund gainful employment quickly. And they will still keep their unbelievably fat pensions (if vested). Now they will have to be like everyone else and pay a large chunk for their benefits.
No pity here, more like “welcome to the Real World, folks.”
God willing 10s of thousands will join them over the next year or so.
Knowledge of OPERATION TORCH, our entry into the second world war ETO, was withheld from the State Department.”The place is like a sieve,” FDR said.
Hopefully, some of the people who were given their walking papers were involved in rushing people in while President Trump was trying to keep them out.
I love it!
I’m sure they topped the list.
This is going to be 4 years of pure “Shut-Up-And-Get-to-Work-If-You-Don’t-Like-It-There’s-The-Door” for .gov-types.
And absolute bliss for me.
Where exactly does one find gainful employment after proving themselves incompetent by association by working for .gov ?
Useless slugs.
