State Dept website removes references to Tillerson

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has been removed from the State Department’s website.

A link labeled “Secretary of State Tillerson” at the top of the department’s homepage has disappeared and been replaced with a “Secretary of State” tab.

The link leads to a page about Tillerson’s temporary replacement, Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan, being sworn in on April 1. It shows a picture of Sullivan signing his appointment papers as deputy in 2017.


Links that once led to Tillerson’s speeches, press releases and photo gallery were replaced by links to such information about Sullivan.
The Associated Press first reported the changes.

4. Tillerson is a non-entity

This means tRump is no longer a "moron" since non-entities don't have the power of name calling.

5. Fascinatin -- note that there is a link to former DEPUTY secretaries of state, where you would expec

former Secretaries of State. You still can get the archived records of former NON TRUMP Secretaries of State by clicking on "archives" on the left side mid page. This then gets you to the archived records of several presidents.

Note that if you go to the State department link for the archived Obama administration, if you click on Secretary Kerry, on the left of the resulting page, you can click on "former Secretaries of State". That link is a page where you get a list of ALL former Secretaries of State. From that list, there are links to the Albright, Powell, Rice and Clinton archives. Those links still allow you to get to everything that had been under the Secretary tab for those Secretaries. (I did look at the Clinton tabs to get primary source information when she was secretary -- and I could still find everything when Kerry was secretary and it looks like it is still there now.

However, I could not find any stored Tillerson stuff. He was nowhere near as active as Kerry or Clinton, but there is nothing stored in "archives" as that is for former Presidents. If you go the current Secretary of State page, there is no link for Tillerson (as there was in 2013 for Clinton). If you click on "remarks", what you get for for 2017 and 2018 are the remarks of the Deputy Secretary of State.

Tillerson really has been erased!
