The “entire senior management” team suffering this
“mass” obliteration consists of Assistant Secretary of State for Administration
Joyce Anne Barr, Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs Michele
Bond, Ambassador Gentry O. Smith of the Office of Foreign Missions, and most
notably Undersecretary for Management Patrick Kennedy, who tried to drag the
FBI into Hillary Clinton’s cover-ups. Trump marches on, these people had to go and they're gone.
Kennedy has also been accused of playing a role in
the Benghazi disaster, although the State Department’s internal review
“downplayed” his role in the “decision-making that led to the inadequate
security posture in Benghazi,” as the Washington Examiner recalls.
The Examiner
also notes his “you can’t fire me, I quit” retirement was announced yesterday,
so treating it like big news today is somewhat disingenuous.
The Trump campaign said that Kennedy had to go, and
called (in vain, of course) on Hillary Clinton to speak out against him, as
well. This is not some shocking walkout by a defiant Resistance speaking truth
to power – it is President Trump fulfilling a campaign promise on his fourth
day in office.
