Deep State Delenda Est.
pjmedia.com/instapundit/34…
" the president’s critics mocked the idea of a deep state as a crazy right-wing conspiracy theory. But they have come around now not only to admit that the deep state does exist,
more importantly, they claim, it’s a good thing! "
I didn't vote the #DeepState.
Nobody did.
Their attempt to rule lacks legitimacy and, successful or not, can only end in ruin.
"Michelle Cottle, a member of the New York Times editorial board, opined about the denizens of the deep state that “They Are Not the Resistance. They Are Not a Cabal. They Are Public Servants. Let us now praise these not-silent heroes.” "
Cottle’s Times colleague, James Stewart ... celebrates “a federal bureaucracy dedicated to halting or slowing down President Trump’s agenda. There is a deep state.

... There is a bureaucracy in our country who has pledged to respect the constitution, respect the rule of law. They do not work for the president, they work for the American people.”

The hell they do. Those Deep States swore an oath to uphold the Constitution.
"I have heard military friends describe the “whistleblower” ... as “heroes” and “patriots” who “understand their oath.” The oath to the Constitution, which grants to the president, in conjunction with Congress—not to unelected bureaucrats—the power to make U.S. foreign policy?"
"The fact is that the deep state is praetorianism on steroids. It is based on the claim that unelected bureaucrats have a duty to undermine the policy of a duly elected president, simply because they disagree with it. "
Why don't these "heroes and patriots" have the courage to simply resign?
