You mean Rex Tillerson ... and General Kelly ?

Weren't those Trump appointments ?

Haley thinks Trump would listen to feedback other than fawning? I thought she was smarter.

Nikki was wrong.

Not for those who don't believe in sedition. Like his policies or not like them....Trump is the elected President and not they.

I suspect though your version of listening would mean the President has no right to make the final decision.

Telling the president things he doesn’t want to hear is not sedition..

Interesting. We (prayer warriors all across this country and the world) have been praying that those who undermine what is best for our country, and us, the American people (both inside and outside the White House), would be brought to light.

(Reminds me of the character "Bob Alexander", the White House Chief of Staff, in the movie "Dave")

Continuing to pray.

Who said it was? But that IS NOT the thing that Nikki Haley said. She said they tried to recruit her to undermine the President. So how do you change that to they were just telling the President things he didn't want to hear?

The real question is how do you know that Kelly and Tillerson were acting at the direction of the "Deep State?"

Just another one of those remarks
with no real honest thought behind it
that they throw out there
hoping to muddy the waters.

Sometimes we wonder but,
if those in the US are not blinded
will carry not much weight in 2020.

Please keep praying ... along with the rest if us.

The results, thus far, have been astounding ...

Here's more:
Nikki Haley claims John Kelly and Rex Tillerson asked her to help them ‘save the country’ from Trump

In her new book, Haley described a situation in which Kelly and Tillerson came to her and asked her to “undermine” the president instead of confronting Trump directly about a foreign policy decision.

“Kelly and Tillerson confided in me that when they resisted the president, they weren’t being insubordinate, they were trying to save the country,” Haley wrote.

Tillerson, Kelly are only the tip of the cabal as Nikki Haley reveals nefarious plans

The biggest problem with unelected bureaucrats and the so-called “Deep State” is they believe their sensibilities are superior to anyone, even the President and especially even the voters. They pretend to be acting on their conscience, but Haley made an important point when interviewed by CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell.

“It should’ve been, ‘Go tell the president what your differences are, and quit if you don’t like what he’s doing,’” Haley told O’Donnell. “But to undermine a president is really a very dangerous thing. And it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. And it was offensive.”
...
They didn’t get elected. President Trump did. He is in charge and the decisions he makes are clearly having a positive impact on the United States and the world. For these bureaucrats to attempt to force their personal agendas onto the country is disgraceful. Both of them and the rest of their cabal should be ashamed of themselves, but they won’t be. In their minds, their potentially treasonous actions are justifiable.

You can count on it.

Especially praying that all that is hid in darkness will be exposed.

Praying.

Let it rain.

Going against Trump isn't "undermining what is best for our country, and us, the American people". In fact, going against Trump is in the country's (and the American peoples) best interest.

Deep State? Wasn’t it Trump who hired them on?

A lot of "Deep state" people sought appointments from Trump, just as they would from any other president.

Tillerson and Kelly didn't get elected. Trump appointed them. He only picks the best.

Trump is in charge, and his decisions are clearly detrimental to the US and the world. He is emboldening dictators and weakening the alliance of democratic nations. Trump was elected by a minority of the US population, and is trying to force his personal agenda onto the country. It's disgraceful. Him and his cabal should be ashamed of themselves, but they won't be. In their minds, their potentially treasonous actions are justifiable.

Other politicians are sworn to uphold the Constitution and act in the best interest of the country, not the whims of the President. Trump and his supporters don't seem to understand that.

That's ok because, we need to realize
some still don't even know what the
Deep State is?

Blinded
but,
not by the light.

And why would the president with a mandate to “drain the swamp” consider hiring them on? Tillerson in particular being an ExxonMobile exec before being hired on could hardly be called “deep state” considering he had no prior role in the government.
