About this listen
About thirteen hundred workers were recently laid off from the State Department. X was full of emotional videos, recording diplomats gathered in the lobby to applaud, hug, and weep with their departing colleagues.
Americans might wonder where similar coverage was for private sector workers when Joe Biden shut down construction of the Keystone Pipeline. Or why no tears were shed for small businesses destroyed by covid lockdowns
The State Department’s hysteria is even more ridiculous in context. According to State Department documents, the department grew from 57,000 employees in 2007 to 80,000 in 2024. After growing by twenty-three thousand, only a meager one thousand, three hundred jobs were cut.
It’s just another example of the grotesque entitlement of the government class.
