| T-Rex orders Foggy Bottom mission redefined, 'promoting democracy' no longer listed |

| [Miami Herald] Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has ordered his department to redefine its mission and issue a new statement of purpose to the world. The draft statements under review right now are similar to the old mission statement, except for one thing -- any mention of promoting democracy is being eliminated. According to an internal email that went out Friday, which I obtained, the State Department’s Executive Steering Committee convened a meeting of leaders to draft new statements on the department’s purpose, mission and ambition, as part of the overall reorganization of the State Department and USAID. (The draft statements were being circulated for comment Friday and could change before being finalized.) â–ª The State Department’s draft statement on its purpose is: "We promote the security, prosperity and interests of the American people globally." â–ª The State Department’s draft statement on its mission is: "Lead America’s foreign policy through global advocacy, action and assistance to shape a safer, more prosperous world." |

| #4 "Lead America’s foreign policy through global advocacy, action and assistance to shape a safer, more prosperous world." Pure Globalism. Promoting Democracy not mentioned because democracy is not their goal for anyone. Oligarchic technocracy is their goal, a form of theocracy. That is why they do not mention democracy. State, including T-Rex, is fighting to silence Trump's electorate: http://theological-geography.net/?p=30053 |

| #3 Democracy = middle class (and bureaucrats =/= middle class). So, given the beating USA middle class been taking in the last decades, one should concentrate on promoting democracy in USA - which, the vulgar choice of the bourgeoisie appears to be doing (to the extent that the better classes controlling the mandarinate allow). |

| #2 Yup. If a thing is good, it will sell itself. Consider a gift, if you want it. And please don't try bring all the people from other cultures here, who don't give a fig about our democracy and who want to corrupt and change our democracy. Screw that part of diversity--it is a failed concept. |

| #1 Excellent! They all know what it looks like. You want some, go get some. We're running kind of low right now. |
