I’ve frequently written about the Democratic Party Deep State (DPDS).
They’re the reverse of the old adage about bringing a knife to a gunfight. They brought an AK-47 to what was once a friendly political wrestling match.
In the days of my youth, Republicans and Democrats respected each other. We had differences of opinion, but we obeyed the law and played by certain unwritten rules. We were able to make solid friendships across the aisle, shake hands and compromise. The Civil War was history, and we were certain it could never happen again.
But the Deep State was already fully formed, in the top-secret smoke-filled rooms of the CIA. It was already staging coups and assassinating hostile politicians around the globe.
The Deep State Assimilates the Democrats
The first American assassination by the Deep State now appears to be President John F. Kennedy, Jr., a Democrat who would be a Republican by 2025 standards. He swore that he’d take the CIA apart, one piece at a time, and opposed its commitment to sending combat troops to Vietnam.
Weeks later, he paid with his life.
My earliest political memory was watching all that unfold. My parents, involved in the union at work, and both loyal Democrats, had just taught me “a president is like a daddy, but for everybody.”
Then I watched him get shot in the head.
Like the Star Trek Borg, the Deep State assimilated his party’s leadership. Elements of that party, such as the political machines in Chicago and New York, were already fixing elections and generally viewing the law as an inconvenience before the Deep State absorbed them.

Luckily the Deep State assassins have become so woke that they are incompetent just like all of their woke comrades.
I think the Deep State first gets embeded within CIA and DOD during WWII under FDR, and remained there through Truman, Eisenhower and beyond (from which Ike referre to the Military Industrial Complex, by which I think he also meant the CIA as ewell) I also think Johnson not JFK was their preferred Candidate. He had helped the Dim Speaker of the House get FDR’s legislative agendas passed from 1937-49, then became the Dim leader in the Senate from 49-61. He was the perfect pick for the Deep State but the Kennedy’s bought the election for JFK. Interesting along with that is that JFK got assassinated in LBJ’s home state.
Regardless, I wouldn’t want to be downrange of one of their snipers.
****President John F. Kennedy, Jr., a Democrat who would be a Republican by 2025 standards.****
The left’s brainwashing for generations has sure succeeded in turning that shallow hustler rich kid into one of not only WWII’s greatest heroes but also into one of the world’s great statesmen, and a man that is practically a deity to the left and who is being morphed into a republican now while still remaining royalty to the left.
I like that analogy.
