`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 (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/state-dept-layoffs-under-rex-tillerson-being-carried-out/#).


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.`

More good news!

The level of the Swamp is coming down.

Loving it!

I'm all for getting rid of those politically loyal to Obama, I am worried that some of these positions look to remain vacant. It may well be that they are excess personnel, though the articles tend to put them more high ranking than usual bureaucrats. If there is a need for expertise in these positions, the administration may find itself in the same sort of pickle that leaders that purge the upper military, only to find out when needed, there's an absence of leadership.

The level of the Swamp is coming down.

It needs to be.

These bureaucrats have been clinging to a solid line from Obama, Clinton, and Kerry for so long
that they forgot their FIRST Duty was the Constitution and the People of the USA.

Politics has very little business in that level.

Longterm. I wonder if Kerry ( THE VIETNAM WAR HERO) will throw his phony medals over the TRUMP white house fence now?

Do you mean the ones he wrote himself up for?
The ones that hung in his office as a Senator?
Or the replacements for the originals that he bought?

Elessar. Would you believe? ALL OF THE ABOVE?

Good thing Kerry is now back at home with his HEINZ 57 billions again!:laugh:

Good. Maybe now those tarantulas in Washington will see how it's been for the rest of us these past 8 years under Obama.

A job in the government isn't a lifetime privilege. No job is secure, it should be no different for government bureaucrats.
