This idea that the Deep State is chasing after and indicting spies as a grand plot to increase defense spending is laughable.


The war machine and the welfare machine are very similar. Once those in it realize they can game the system to bring in more $$ it becomes a dangerous entity.

Perhaps you should take on the task of doing this with Honest Bob? Because the way I understand it, the purpose of indictments are to bring to justice defendants that are actually, you know, prosecutable.

You forgot this part:

quote:

The term “deep state” has been so over-used in the past few years that it may seem meaningless. It has become standard practice to label one’s political adversaries as representing the “deep state” as a way of avoiding the defense of one’s positions. President Trump has often blamed the “deep state” for his political troubles. Trump supporters have created big conspiracies involving the “deep state” to explain why the president places neocons in key positions or fails to fulfill his campaign promises.

But the “deep state” is no vast and secret conspiracy theory. The deep state is real, it operates out in the open, and it is far from monolithic. The deep state is simply the permanent, unelected government that continues to expand its power regardless of how Americans vote.

There are factions of the deep state that are pleased with President Trump’s policies, and in fact we might say that President Trump represents some factions of the deep state.

Republicans hated ron paul and i've hated politics since
The establishment hated Ron Paul. That's why his campaign was silenced....unlike Trump's who was built into rock star status with 24/7 access and billions in free advertisement.

But that was all done by accident, of course.....because the establishment is just that stupid.
