The gelatinous anti-American moonbats comprising the State Department have dealt with the election as best they can, employing the time-honored liberal approach of thumb-sucking and navel-gazing in the form of an in-house therapy session the Friday after the election:

“Managing stress during change,” read an internal State Department email sent across the agency that encouraged employees to attend a one-hour session in which they could discuss their feelings about Tuesday’s election results. …

The session was led by a licensed clinical provider.

Another session was scheduled for the following week.

Also on the Friday after the election,

The State Department’s Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, which oversees American diplomacy in the war-torn Middle East, also held a group discussion [the Friday after the election] with assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs Barbara Leaf and acting undersecretary for political affairs John Bass…

One source described the meeting as a “cry session” over Trump’s victory, which is likely to usher in wholesale change at Foggy Bottom.

It had better, for the sake of world peace. The State Department is the face America presents to the world. Weakness invites aggression.

The State Department also held in-house therapy sessions in May 2023, after a system-wide email glitch assigned random and often incorrect pronouns to employees.

Not a look likely to deter foreign enemies.
