For centuries *countries* would field armies.

Then something changed:

We saw THOUSANDS of trucks, THOUSANDS of fighters. With EVERYTHING. Every day we’d hear the stories of this weird, new, non-state ARMY kicking the cr*p out of the new Iraqi army.

ORGANIZATIONS beating countries; the rise of the non-state actor.

It made sense that private COMPANIES might provide the most effective answer to that; Triple Canopy, Blackwater, Executive Outcomes and over a hundred others.

And in time...?

We see domestically that we have the rise of the **non-state GOVERNMENT**:

A group of people unseen, who apparently govern from the shadows, immune from the effects of elaborate elections.

SECRET OCCUPIERS.

A big country that is FARMED by a smaller, parasitic one, that sucks our information and income.

Democrats never paused to consider they could be handing a weaponized executive branch over to Republicans in 2016. Or the realized it and figured the GOP is too self-throttling to take advantage of it. They were probably right.

[RFEngineer]

There are two things that are most disturbing.

First, that this happened at all.

Second, that this obvious lawlessness and lack of ethics or reason with respect to following our Constitution did not result in wide-spread dissent.

We have no choice but to dismantle the CIA, FBI, and NSA.

This starts with allowing every American to inspect the records they have on us.

We need to prosecute not just the past leadership of these organizations, we need
To prosecute the employees who participated in lawlessness.

We don’t have a choice now. Reform is not possible.

We need to consider what replaces them

To date, the Trump Department of Justice – like the Obama Department of Justice – is fighting me in court and working to keep hidden the identities of those who accessed a government internet protocol address found in my computers.

Sessions again.

[Big Red Badger]

First ...
The Weaponized IRS against TEA PARTY’S.

No this cruddy Junk.

[aquila48]

“The prospect of our own NSA, CIA and FBI becoming politically weaponized...”

It’s inevitable - I don’t care how many “safeguards” you build in, once you create and empower such organizations, sooner than later powerful people will use them to safeguard their powers and destroy their enemies.

It’s Human Nature 101.

[Lurkinanloomin]

That’s a brave lady.
I’m pretty sure that they killed another investigative reporter in L.A.
Blew up his car.

[boycott]

I hope she nails them. And we’re the ones paying for these swamp creatures.

[Chgogal]

Bump.

The Deep State has become dangerous and is threatening the individual citizen.

[Fhios]

It’s institutionalized corruption. Else Sessions wouldn’t be witholding the damning evidence and documents hidden over at Justice.

[Lopeover]

I admire her so much. She is an investigative reporter worthy of the title!

[60Gunner]

Well, it’s time we became a weaponized citizenry and dragged these deep-state SOBS out of their holes. God knows our government won’t help us.
