The Deep State Wraps Its Protective Cocoon Around Hillary Clinton

By Rush Limbaugh

Question: Now that the Republicans control all three branches of government, my question is really simple. Why is it that when organizations have sued the Justice Department and State Department — I’m, of course, speaking of Judicial Watch here — for documents related to Hillary Clinton, Benghazi and all of the other Obama scandals... why is it that State and Justice are so slow in releasing the documents that the judges have ordered to be released?

And if it is the deep state that you talk about, then why isn’t Secretary Tillerson and Attorney General Sessions getting in there and kicking some tail to get this information out?

"ASTONISHING": Judicial Watch Forced to Sue Tillerson State Department to Release All Hillary Emails

By Judicial Watch

Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a motion in opposition to the Tillerson State Department’s motion to dismiss a lawsuit challenging its failure to take any action to recover emails of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other employees unlawfully removed from the agency (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Rex Tillerson (No. 1:15-cv-00785)). The lawsuit seeks to force State Department compliance with the Federal Records Act (FRA). The Trump administration continues to object to taking this strong action to recover Clinton’s emails.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has emerged as the point man for the Trump administration’s confrontational approach to Russia, a repudiation of widespread media hand-wringing that he would be a pushover in negotiations with Moscow.

Tillerson’s hard line on Russia contrasts previous reports suggesting he would bend over backward to mollify Russian President Vladimir Putin with whom he has ties after 10 years as the CEO of ExxonMobil.

A December report from Time called President Donald Trump’s nomination of Tillerson a move the could “hardly have been more perfect if the Kremlin itself had scripted it.” Time wondered if Tillerson, carrying a “reputation as an unsentimental dealmaker,” would reshape American diplomacy and acquiesce to Russia’s desire for America to stop putting “principles ahead of profits.”

AN ALLEGED ISLAMIST SPY RING: Is This Why Rex Tillerson Cleaned House at State?

By Free Market Shooter

Shortly after Trump took office, and before Rex Tillerson was even confirmed as Secretary of State, a slew of State Department officials were removed from their positions (or were forced to resign) as part of an effort to “clean house” at the State Department.  The whole affair was haphazardly covered by the media, especially by Jeff Bezos’s blog, which insinuated that the departures were “an ongoing mass exodus of senior Foreign Service officers who don’t want to stick around for the Trump era.”
