From the LA Times, an honest question:
ReplyDeleteSo, is there actually a deep state in America?
Probably not.
“What the current administration believes to be the American deep state seems to be little more than the time-honored practice of leaking information to journalists in Washington,” [Steven A.] Cook, [a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations] said.
There may be more leaks now “because there are a lot of civil servants who apparently disagree with this administration,” he said. “There is no evidence of a cabal intent on overthrowing the administration.”
There are whack jobs on both sides of the aisle, but "Deep State" is another made-up term like "Fake News" to support the latest propaganda barrage.
Gadfly, IMO you are terribly wrong in limiting your judgement to this one example out of, what? 500? 1000?
