Foggy Bottom blues: 'Deep State' Department suspends press briefings
2017-03-29
[RT] The US Department of State is off the air again as it seeks a permanent spokesperson. Gone are the daily press briefings of the Obama era, leaving many reporters at Foggy Bottom frustrated by Rex Tillerson’s corporate management style.

Tillerson, a former Exxon Mobile chief executive, took only one reporter along on his first trip to Asia earlier this month. During the first six weeks of the Trump administration, the State Department didn’t hold a single on-camera press briefing, only restarting the practice on March 7.

#2  Gone are the daily press briefings of the Obama era. They were good for laughs since they strained credulity. One always came away thinking "Wow that was a wopper, they really expect us to believe that $hit?" Otherwise, they were useless. Mostly, they were used for covering up HRC's and O's criminality.

#1  While Mr. Tillerson is draining Deep Swamp, getting rid of the meddling frogs is a good first step.
