Umm...one thing you haven’t considered here, the Deep State may well it’s own form of tribe. Since Human Civilization began there has been a concerted effort amongst those with a combination of intelligence, ambition, energy and the means that comes from those characteristics to amass power over their fellow human beings. That power becomes institutionalized into the ability to rule, over the largest population that it can accumulate, by fiat. This is where the American Revolution came from (and it wasn’t the first...this has been known since at least the days of Ancient Greece, if not before).

The Deep State is likely simply the spear point of another tribe,another individual or group aiming to rule by fiat...the oldest story in the book, right there with beer and prostitution.

I would certainly not think “they know something we don’t” so maybe we should check it out and get on board. I would suggest the impetus that is as old as Civilization itself - the desire to exert total power over other men is truly at the root of what we call The Deep State.

I'm totally with you here, Scott.

It IS a tale as old as time.

Masters/Slaves.

Because they're better than us and deserve it.
