NYT: The Deep State is Awesome!

by | Mar 19, 2024

The Times informs us that the “Deep State” is not the national security state’s permanent network of military officers, CIA spies, FBI perjurers, and their millions of consultants and contractors and check-cashers. No, it’s all government employees of any rank in any state in the union. And they are just a bunch of down-home decent folk just like you! Wouldn’t you know it?

To find it, the first thing they did was leave Washington D.C. where the national security state is based to go interview nobody civil servants out in the hinterland.

Okay I admit I didn’t watch much of it. I hate Democrats too much. I just don’t have the stomach for it anymore.
