The State Department is entrenched with 0bama holdovers just as every other executive branch bureaucracy. That swamp is deep. Doesn’t mean Pompeo put them there.
Look up Todd Robinson of the State Department. He’s been orchestrating a lot of the invasion force in Central America. They just made him Ambassador to Venezuela. I don’t know why they don’t fire these people instead of moving them around,
The moving them around part of part of my point. You can point to Obama holdovers, but they keep using them.
