If you aree going to drain the swamp, you have to get the rootlets out of the plumbing.

The problem is.... the corruption is so widespread and embedded now... that to cut out the cancer will kill the patient.

Agreed. And the State department is just a start. They're everywhere.

You bettcha!  Rooting them out will be  tedious but definitely a project worth doing.

I'll believe that when I see it.

That is very much the reality of where this nation now finds itself.

So they will keep treating the symptoms so the carcass can trudge along until the cancer finally kills all the major organs and the body itself, most likely the economy and the dollar as they continue to spend trillions there is no possible way in the material universe to pay back.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

More so than in the heyday of the 1950s/1960s and Soviet infiltration of the U.S. government?  I find that hard to believe.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

The ones the Soviets emplaced were likely motivated by ideology. While that might be a part of what motivates some of the current crop, I think the fundamental force is greed. Whether greed for power or money, it's there, and the ones with the ideology thing going are using greed as a tool to build the machine. They are all termites, and the question is one of whether enough structure remains to stand without the bugs.
This isn't cloak and dagger, it's in-your-face, laughing as Americans rant impotently about getting ripped off.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It's still good news - you know she's going to roll over on others to save her own ass.

I don't know about that. Klintoon folks have a history of falling on their swords for their masters.
