CNN has a new episode of Declassified on Saturday -- something about moles in the State department
which made me think about Hillary Clinton's interview. A lot of people in the State Department are spies with "official cover" and I was thinking about Tillerson's decision to cut the department by 30% not to mention all the resignations and the fact this guy met with Putin has me feeling it was the intention to do his bidding by gutting us from the inside. I feel it was a very deliberate action rather than the explanation of trying to save money or make it more efficient. I also think this is the reason Clinton mentioned over and over the need of "intensive diplomacy" when it comes to the North Korea situation.

The vast majority of the agency’s overseas officers are under what is known as “official cover,” which means they are posing as employees of another government agency. The State Department allows hundreds of its positions in embassies around the world to be occupied by CIA officers representing themselves as diplomats.
