July 8, 2025 at 10:57 amIn a recent memo, the State Department revealed it is ending a program that for decades has allowed low-performing diplomats to continue receiving benefits instead of being phased out.

July 8, 2025 at 10:57 amUnder the Annuity Exception, Foreign Service members have been able to remain on the State Department payroll beyond their scheduled departure from the administration, the internal memo explains. The memo states that the exception violates the Foreign Service Act of 1980, which dictates who receives retirement benefits.

July 8, 2025 at 10:58 am“This program is unfortunately the perfect example of the corruption, waste, and abuse that has gone unchecked at the State Department for far too long,” a senior State Department official told the Caller. “This program had sent millions of unauthorized taxpayer dollars to underperforming diplomats and previous administrations simply turned a blind eye, but at the direction of Secretary Rubio this will no longer be the case.

July 8, 2025 at 10:59 amUnder President Trump, this administration will be unwavering in their commitment to ensure Americans’ resources will no longer be squandered.” It appears that the government has known about this violation for years. In 1995, the Office of the Legal Adviser recommended to the State Department that they eliminate the program, writing that there was a “possibility that a court would find that the current practice is an impermissible reading of the statute,” the memo states.

Now, as the State Department official said, President Trump and Secretary Rubio are taking key steps to root out fraud and waste. This is a huge answer to our prayers! Let’s pray that all fraud and waste continue to be exposed, and that no taxpayer dollars are misused! Thank you for praying🙏🏻♥️
