This is what DC does to you.
Some guys in suits pull you into a closed committee room and say “This is what we can’t tell anyone but you. It’s the RAW intelligence. The real deal.” Then they show you absolute horseshit for hours. And, before they leave, they say “But it’s secret intelligence, you can’t tell anyone”. Then you’re left winking and nodding and telling your constituents “Trust me on this one, I know things”, perpetuating the hoax by omission.
This is why guys like Trump piss the bureaucracy off so much. He’s equally credulous towards InfoWars as The Deep State and considers every one of them just an avenue with which to grift. He’s too corrupt to be corruptible by this shit. But Ilhan’s supposed to be the voice of the Muslim Minority. She’s ripe fruit.
He’s too corrupt to be corruptible by this shit.
Is it bad that this is a lot of the reason why I both love and hate Trump? He wears it on his sleeve and it’s honestly refreshing. Guy was the post-modern president.
Eh. Guys like Trump get to flaunt their corruption because they know they’re protected. That impeachment conviction vote is a clear example. Just utterly impervious to consequences.
He’s a different kind of horrible, which is “refreshing” in so far as it pisses off the libs. But it’s still fucking horrible. Even as a milquetoast-on-war guy, he still managed to reek havoc on Latin America and the Middle East.
My fervent hope is that Biden’s going to be entirely too tied up managing domestic disasters to dip his dick into foreign affairs. But it always seems like we’ve got money in the banana stand to do something reckless, monstrous, and stupid.
Where can I learn more about this? I’ve picked up a good bit of hearsay about the bureaucracy/deep state/whatever but I’ve never seriously studied it.
TrueAnon recently did a premium episode called Deep State 101, it’s ep 135. you could probably get it from r/blackepsteinfeed
