US State Department REALLY screws up. Total WTF?? moment.

This is the announcement for a State Department Facebook Live event earlier today. It boggles the mind that they could even think about posting something like this in the midst of the current firestorm.

Mike Pompeo has some explaining to do. This is way beyond either irony or trolling. How in the hell can they be this brazen?

Actual event description:

FB Live- Family Travel Hacks!
Public · Hosted by U.S. Department of State: Consular Affairs

Are you traveling with kids this year? Have questions about getting their passports, and want tips to make travel easier? Join us for this Facebook Live with Carl and Kim from Passport Services. They'll share lots of tips with you to make traveling with the whole family easier. Ask us your questions in the comments discussion section of this event or in the comments of the live video, and we'll do our best to answer them!
Kid Friendly

Actual State Department Facebook page with a scathing discussion section. Nobody from State has responded to any comments, but I expect that they will all be deleted once someone in charge sees them.
