This story puts a big smile on my face! Margaret Brennan and Kylie Atwood, CBS News:

While Rex Tillerson is on his first overseas trip as Secretary of State, his aides laid off staff at the State Department on Thursday.

This is good news, especially given the reports that State Department types are trying to undermine Trump. Here’s hoping the rest of Team Trump attacks the bureaucracy with the same fervor as Tillerson.
