Accept all political ambassadors' resignations and review career ones
What the document says“It should both accept the resignations of all political ambassadors and quickly review and reassess all career ambassadors.”
The chapter notes that previous Administrations accepted only political ambassadors' resignations and let career ambassadors stay on, sometimes for years. It says the review should begin well before the first day, and separately that ambassadors in countries where policy would substantially change, or who have shown hostility to the incoming Administration, should be recalled immediately.
What the document actually says“It should both accept the resignations of all political ambassadors and quickly review and reassess all career ambassadors.”
Let all the political ambassadors go. Then look hard at the career ones too.
Ambassadors speak for the country abroad. Some are political picks. Others are career staff. The book says the political ones should all go. It says the career ones should be reviewed.
Read against the documents indexed here on August 26, 2026, and nothing was found that answers this. The Office of Personnel Management rule lets agencies move policy-influencing career positions into Schedule Policy/Career, making them removable without adverse action procedures. It is a government-wide civil service rule and does not touch ambassadors: nothing in it accepts the resignations of political ambassadors or requires a review of career ones. No document indexed here mentions ambassadors. That is a record of a search, not a finding that nothing has happened: an act this site does not hold, or one that answers the proposal in words unlike its own, would not be caught by it.
