William Burns, deputy secretary of State under President
Barack Obama, declared in an article in Foreign Affairs said to “turned
heads” in Washington that Trump’s treatment of State Department
officials was akin to Sen. Joseph McCarthy’s “savage campaign against
‘disloyalty’ in the State Department.”
Burns conveniently overlooks the fact that there were communists in
the State Department. And Pompeo remarked that he appeared to be
auditioning to be Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s secretary of state.”
The AP story is more of the same. Diplomats are fuming because of
Trump’s push to cut budgets and staff, and this is “a moment of
catharsis.”
It’s all about iron rice bowls — the Constitution, rule of law, and political tradition be damned.
