1,000 State Department Officials Sign Dissent Cable Against Trump Muslim-Ban
The response to Donald Trump’s Muslim-ban was large and swift. And now we are seeing 1,000 State Department officials are joining the growing effort to stop Donald Trump’s epically stupid and clearly racist Muslim-ban.
The New York Times is reporting that the dissent cable is “quickly emerging as one of the broadest protests by American officials against their president’s policies. And it is not over yet.”
The letter now has 1,000 signatories which is far more than any dissent cable in recent memory.
For a point of reference, the New York Times points out: “The State Department has 7,600 Foreign Service officers and 11,000 civil servants.”
