State Department Officials Accuse Tillerson of Breaking Federal Law
Exclusive - State Dept. revolt: Tillerson accused of violating U.S. law on child soldiers
A confidential State Department “dissent” memo not previously reported said Tillerson breached the Child Soldiers Prevention Act when he decided in June to exclude Iraq, Myanmar, and Afghanistan from a U.S. list of offenders in the use of child soldiers. This was despite the department publicly acknowledging that children were being conscripted in those countries.[tmsnrt.rs/2jJ7pav]
Keeping the countries off the annual list makes it easier to provide them with U.S. military assistance. Iraq and Afghanistan are close allies in the fight against Islamist militants, while Myanmar is an emerging ally to offset China’s influence in Southeast Asia.

I have a difficult time believing that any fine 'christian' associated with the sexual predator would break the law.
that's why this is #FakeNews.
