(Washington post) God bless the ‘deep state’
Washington post ^

Posted on 07/20/2018 5:48:04 AM PDT by MNDude

Before this harebrained and reckless administration is history, the nation will have cause to celebrate the public servants derided by Trumpists as the supposed “deep state.”

The term itself is propaganda, intended to cast a sinister light upon men and women whom Trump and his minions find annoyingly knowledgeable and experienced. They are not participants in any kind of dark conspiracy. Rather, they are feared and loathed by the president and his wrecking crew of know-nothings because they have spent years — often decades — mastering the details of foreign and domestic policy.

God bless them. With a supine Congress unwilling to play the role it is assigned by the Constitution, the deep state stands between us and the abyss.

Democrats in Congress are powerless; the Republican leadership, spineless. Experienced government officials know that their job is to serve the president. But what if the president does not serve the best interests of the nation?

In this emergency, the loyal and honorable deep state has a higher duty. It’s called patriotism.

The CIA is still Brennan’s CIA.

The Compost has been a CIA mouth-organ forever. Operation Mockingbird is larger than ever.

The corruption is larger than most people can imagine. Trillions of dollars and decades of empire-building are at stake, and the stakeholders need to take out Trump at any cost.

They publish a lot of opinion columnists, including some conservatives.

Oh, well obviously you realize you as a bureaucrat stand above the president and the will of the people, and you overthrow him.

Wow! The leftists were correct all these years. They kept repeating the Sinclair quote: ""When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag." And here they are now, defending the domestic gestapo. Who woulda thunk?
