It is like they don’t get paid or have any benefits for being Ambassador or some other State dept official and being over paid to shill for their masters. $125k-187k

    Yeah, it's hard to listen to. Quite two-faced. My kids got us into the Harry Potter series. All I can think about when I see these people is the character Delores Umbridge. Saccharin sweet with nothing but bile coming out of the mouth!

      I shudder every time I hear of Umbrage. Irrational supposed authority figure with absolute control. For all practical purposes, my Mom, which is why I'm a Libertarian. I'm so glad we have Trump, who isn't a lawyer, has nothing to gain monetarily from being in his position, and it's driving the rest of them insane.

        The Deep State has 3 Modes:
        1) Blackmail, and they will set you up
        2) Bribery (Like buying google stock pre-IPO), you become rich, and then #1 kicks in to keep you on their team
        3) Media Harassment... If they can't get you in the first two, b/c you are probably a decent person, they will UNLEASH a torrent of bad press. Think about Judge Moore. No PROOF he did squat... But scared conservatives away.

        Meanwhile, the media supports Blaisey Ford who LIED to ruin a man's life. WTF! Showing you that on their team, the most VILE acts can be rewarded... And on our team, the most hard-working will be destroyed.

        So, they draw weak-minded, easily-controlled people to their side (Umbrage), who want POWER...

        And WE fail to stand up to this, constantly giving inches every year, until we are to the LEFT of JFK and told we are RACIST!

        It stems simply from the MEDIA Collusion with the DNC/Deep State

          Good points there, sir. 1,2 &3 just make me think of the 'politics of pull' in AS. But you know what? The next time someone calls me a racist (and tells me I need an 'eddycation'!) I'm going to sue his @$$ for slander. The first thing we have to do is to simply let them know that we don't believe their BS anymore. I think that needs to be the theme of the next presidential campaign.

          The one who speaks like a four year old. Blasey Ford was just given an award from the ACLU.

            Such BS! I wish Brett Kavanugh would have sued her. No one knows for sure what happened except those 2 - but based on everything I heard and saw, I think Brett Kavanugh was innocent and it was all just a Dem ploy to keep him from being confirmed. If so, he should have steamrolled her for trying to pull that. Make sure the Democrats were very reluctant to try that again. He will never be able to live this down - there will always be someone out there throwing this at him - which again is what the left was after - to discredit him from the beginning. It's wrong.

    The biggest mistake that Trump made when he was first elected was to clear the decks: fire everyone that it is possible to fire and reduce staff in all of the unelected bureaucracy by as many as it takes to stop the coup of an elected president. He offered them an honorable way out, but where there is no honor, there is no way out. Thus, the swamp creatures continue to exist.... Damn them all!

      Hard to fire any of them . Comeys firing led to charges of obstruction of Justice. This Ambassador Yavonovich’s firing was center stage for the sham coop hearings.
      Imagine if these traitors would have worked this hard to make America great.

    I have been sick of this crap for years. These people have been living off the taxpayers with relatively large salaries, perks and have cushy pensions. They haven't served as much as they have mooched. If I was king I would eliminate 90% within a month and 9% more over the following months.

    The Deep State is the greatest threat to our nation. We must act in a way to reduce the size and influence of these bureaucrats. The Civil Service System must be removed so that we can employ on those who are working for our nation rather than themselves. Any ideas?

    So, the Great O fired all of Bush's Ambassadors an caught no flack. Trump fires a couple and all of a sudden he is the worst President ever for firing them. He should have fired them all and made them resubmit their resumes.

      I am so glad I have finally started reading more here. One begins to think there is no reason and no thought. I listen to what is purportedly news and wonder how the blatant double standards can not be called out. The one the specifically seems to apparent is the post above...Obama got away with way more than Trump has even thought about doing.

        I do not reply to an article unless I know something for a fact. I have been stationed in Dirty City (DC) during the Clinton Mafia years an know the inner workings of the corrupt politicians and both sides have them. I have followed it since I retired from the military and still have plenty of "friends" who live or work inside the Beltway. Don't worry, I pick on Barry but also on George (1 and 2) and Donald. The problem is all the easy targets that the politicians give us make it sounds as if it is unreal.

    Well, Me Your Excellent Excellency Dino Phlosoraptor Allosaurus Esquire III would be thrilled to honor all those wonderful puffed-up all about themselves career politicians.
    Just ate me a Beangasitusaurus as yet to be found in the fossil record. So y'all line 'em brayers up so I may one-by-one honor each with an upraised tail salute.

    As if they had been forced to being in Congress.

    It was their decision and the public was ignorant enough to elect them.

    I remember how Hussein used to whine how terribly difficult his job was. He wanted to be president so he must have known what he was getting into. Remember how he reminded us "I am the president" making it clear from the beginning to assert people's compliance. Of course when things went south he always blamed Bush. Responsibility for him covered only things that went in his favor. How Bush got over that and embrace this nitwit after his term was up is beyond me.
