Once upon a time, there was a rock-ribbed conservative U.S. senator who tried mightily to get an über-conservative law passed but was met with great resistance by his liberal colleagues. This went on not for months, but for almost two years.
But he was so persistent and determined that those same resistant colleagues — and their lapdogs in the left-wing media — started to call him “bulldog” — even, at times, Senator Bulldog!
Then, one beautiful spring day, he was both astounded and delighted to learn that he had enough votes to pass his proposed law. The vote was to be taken shortly after the Senate came back from lunch.
As the senator walked along Constitution Avenue to his favorite lunch spot, The Capitol Hill Club, enjoying the gorgeous sight of the wisteria and magnolias and cherry blossoms in bloom, he felt ebullient and redeemed and also proud that his persistence, and the righteousness of his cause, would finally see the light.
There he was, Central Casting, walking tall in his blue suit, white shirt (with cuff links!), red tie… the perfect symbolic colors, he thought, for this milestone day in his life.
Hello, Senator!
As he strode along, another Central Casting figure came up to his side — tall, handsome, also dressed to the nines.
“Hello, Senator. How are you today?”
The senator, long in public service, was accustomed to people he had never met greeting him, saying hello, wishing him well, or advising him on political matters. And, of course, insulting him.
“Very well. It’s a beautiful day.”
“Well, Senator,” said the stranger, “I know when you get back to the Senate, you’re going to vote ‘no’ on that proposed legislation.”
At this presumptuous, ridiculous, insulting, and bizarre remark — at the very idea that he would vote

I wonder how many people think that the “Deep State” was likely behind the two Trump assassination attempts?
I wonder how many people think that the “Deep State” was likely behind the two Trump assassination attempts?
“Everybody”.
Just like everybody knew that Obama and Hillary were behind the Russia, Russia, Russia B/S. Trump always said, “Everybody Knows”
For those of us who believe in prophesy, we know that evil, including the deep state will prevail for a period.
We must be careful as we know that most people will be deceived.
All the way of course. Money & power are corrupters of people.
In the twentieth century, the left was willing to murder the entire world to create the world they want. They murdered enough people to populate an earth at 1920’s levels.
They would do it again without hesitation. That’s how far they will go to get what they want.
The Clinton Body Count List is what brought me to FR those so many years ago.
All. The. Way.
Who else would be behind it?
I know one thing. It is a huge misconception to think that only the Democrats are the Deep State. Only about five out of the whole uniparty are not Deep State.
The Republicans protect the Deep State’s Right Flank.
Well, they went as far as assassination attempts more than once so how much lower can it go than that?
Always remember that for the leftist deep state, there is no lowest low. No septic tank too deep, no slime too slimy for the sleazy left.
To Butler and beyond.
“How Far Will the Deep State Go?”
How about far enough to destroy this Republic and establish their long sought after Socialist/Communist/government control of everything?
Deep State has tried to kill Pres. Trump at least twice...
And this idjit needs to ask?!
Consider the kind of people attracted to such power like a magnet.
Obviously, there is no limit to the depths to which such people are willing to sink.
