The Trump administration could soon roll out sweeping changes to the U.S. State Department, according to a draft executive order obtained by CNBC that lays out what it calls a “disciplined reorganization” of the nation’s diplomatic service.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Sunday dismissed as a "hoax" a draft Trump executive order that circulated over the weekend and would gut the U.S. State Department.

American diplomats spent the weekend panicking about a possible plan to radically reshape the State Department in President Donald Trump’s image. A 16-page document that that appears to be a draft for an executive order has been circulating among diplomatic staff since last week.
