On March 17, ex-CIA Director John Brennan tweeted about the current president of the United States: "When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known, you will take your rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history. ... America will triumph over you."

Brennan is typical of the careerist deep state.

from the article: "A common strategy of the deep state careerist is the psychological tactic known as "projection."
To square their own circles of lying, our so-called best and brightest loudly accuse others of precisely the sins that they themselves commit as a matter of habit."

That is a propaganda tactic first noted among old Soviet apparatchiks, then adopted as, in effect, official policy by the Democrat party.

So, what Democrats do as a matter of course, we should not be surprised to see their minions in DC bureaucracies soon adopting.

It's what makes "drain the swamp" so critical to not just national security but also to national sanity.
