“We should see large groups of desperate people as a national security risk.” Marianne Williamson #USDepartmentOfPeace

The State Department is just America's other war department. The "Defense" Department focuses on murdering people with bombs and the State Department focuses on murdering people with sanctions.

state has its own intelligence officers and special ops - it too has been militarized - and intel-ized - so even less - for peace, friend

Also the Offense Department is one of the biggest polluters in the nation.

The trick is, of course, it is impossible to "wage peace".

You would not like it once we cannot wage war. The State Department can wage peace because we can wage war.

Lol

But don’t we need to be armored. When the likes of terrorist organizations, Iran, and the CCP exist, murderous dictatorships, we can’t pretend they wouldn’t hurt our country. Defense spending is crucial. Is there waste spending there? I’m sure...

The State Dept is the provocation arm of the DoD

@JoeBiden is the antithesis of diplomacy "Putin is a "killer." The State Dept excoriates Chinese official for exceeding a time limit “seemed to have arrived intent on grandstanding, focused on public theatrics and dramatics over substance.” Brainless bullies from the top on down.
