Donald Trump will be the 47th President of the United States.
Democrats are not handling that fact well.
And a top Biden official did something unthinkable after Trump’s big win.
Tony Blinken sponsoring therapy sessions
During an interview with Tucker Carlson prior to the November 2024 election, veteran journalist Mark Halperin said that he believed a Donald Trump victory would trigger a mental health crisis.
Halperin was correct.
But he probably did not think that the mental health crisis would take place inside the State Department.
Antony Blinken, Joe Biden’s Secretary of State, reportedly hosted “cry sessions” for State Department employees distraught over Trump’s win.
An internal email distributed inside the department had the title: “Managing stress during change.”
The email added, “Change is a constant in our lives, but it can often bring about stress and uncertainty. . .Join us for an insightful webinar where we delve into effective stress management techniques to help you navigate these challenging times. . .This session will provide tips and practical strategies for managing stress and maintaining your well being.”
These people are so fragile that they cannot handle one of the two major parties in the country winning a Presidential election.
Republicans respond
Representative Darrell Issa (R-CA), a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, was furious when he heard about the sessions.
He wrote a letter to Blinken that read, “It is disturbing that ostensibly nonpartisan government officials would suffer a personal meltdown over the results of a free and fair election, something the United States champions around the world. . .It is unacceptable that the Department accommodates this behavior and subsidizes it with taxpayer dollars.”
This is a major problem of the administrative state.
These people are not nonpartisan.
Issa continued, “The mental health of our foreign service personnel is important, but the Department has no obligation to indulge and promote the leftist political predilections of its employees and soothe their frayed nerves because of the good-faith votes of—and at the personal expense of—the American taxpayers.”
The Left has encouraged people to become emotional wrecks if they don’t get their way.
Centrist social psychologist Jonathan Haidt wrote about the disturbing development in the book “The Coddling of the American Mind.”
Issa added, “The mere fact that the Department is hosting these sessions raises significant questions about the willingness of its personnel to implement the lawful policy priorities that the American people elected President Trump to pursue and implement.”
That was a big problem in Trump’s first administration.
Investigative journalist James O’Keefe recorded videos of federal employees confessing to intentionally slow-walking paperwork to jam up Trump’s agenda.
Issa concluded, “The Trump Administration has a mandate for wholesale change in the foreign policy arena, and if foreign service officers cannot follow through on the American people’s preferences, they should resign and seek a political appointment in the next Democrat administration.”
This is the Washington, D.C., Swamp at work.
The administrative state has become a fourth branch of government, which was always the plan of the early 20th-century Progressives like Woodrow Wilson.
They wanted the so-called experts to remain in charge.
The idea is a rejection of the country’s Constitutional order, and it’s even worse when these “experts” are this emotionally immature.
