Earlier today, in a comment thread, I posted a link to an article from a news feed that led me to think that Secretary Clinton would have to cut this very short vacation even shorter to attend a meeting on Libya in Istanbul on Thursday. According to Victoria Nuland in today’s press briefing, that will […]

Well this solves the “Mystery of Disappeared White House Appointee Michael Hammer” (Nancy Drew veterans never give up until there is a solution), along with a few other questions/speculations. No, the SOS did not make the announcement herself (I thought that prediction a bit heavy at the time I read it), and no, the […]

In the midst of the Arab Spring, the sands at the State Department continue to shift. Jane Harman, speaking on State of the Union with Candy Crowley today, broke the news that Anne Patterson, former U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan, will be replacing Margaret Scobey as Ambassador to Egypt. There appear to be no reasons […]

Laura Rozen got the scoop on some changes coming up at the State Department. Michael Hammer, International Man of Mystery, sent by the White House after P.J. Crowley’s resignation, will not tbe the spokesperson, and neither will action spokesperson Mark Toner (who has been doing just fine.) According to Rozen, Victoria (“Toria”) Nuland will be. […]

This just came in from the State Department, and given the high level of interest in our participation in the No-Fly Zone and protection of Libyan civilians, I thought I would make it available to those who have concerns. NATO has taken command. We are no longer in command. (That was fast, wasn’t it?) Just […]

As you know, Secretary Clinton had no public appointments today. I, personally, hope she took a day of rest after her crazily busy week last week which did not end until late Saturday night or possibly even early Sunday morning. Many may not agree with her having managed to convinced the President to cooperate in […]

Just in case you had, from the MSM, the impression that we are doing nothing for the humanitarian crisis resulting from the strife in Libya, here is a fact sheet released by the State Department. Our woman at State is exactly that, a woman and the Secretary of State. She is not the Secretary of […]
