It Turns Out the Deep State is Actually Kind of Awesome
New York Times ^ | March 19, 2024 | Adam Westbrook and Lindsey Crouse

Posted on 03/19/2024 5:23:09 AM PDT by Jim Noble

As America closes in on a major election, mistrust is brewing around the mysterious government entity that’s now denounced in scary-sounding terms — “the deep state” and “the swamp.” What do those words even mean? Who exactly do they describe?

We went on a road trip to find out. As we met the Americans who are being dismissed as public enemies, we discovered that they are … us. They like Taylor Swift. They dance bachata. They go to bed at night watching “Star Trek” reruns. They go to work and do their jobs: saving us from Armageddon.

Sure, our tax dollars pay them, but as you’ll see in the video above, what a return on our investment we get!

When we hear “deep state,” instead of recoiling, we should rally. We should think about the workers otherwise known as our public servants, the everyday superheroes who wake up ready to dedicate their careers and their lives to serving us. These are the Americans we employ. Even though their work is often invisible, it makes our lives better...

But if Donald Trump is re-elected and enacts Schedule F, that could change. He would have the power to eviscerate the so-called deep state and replace our public servants with people who work for him, not us.

In the video above, you’ll meet a few of our hard-working American public servants, and we hope you’ll agree that they’re not scary at all. In fact, they’re kind of awesome.

I guess the NYT has teenage girls writing their headlines these days.

You have got to be kidding me. Even the authors can't believe this pap.

They want so desperately to be cool and “awesome” but Communists have never been either.

“public servants” = six figures, latte’s in the afternoon, and the power to destroy american’s lives and livelihoods with regulatory procedure.

compliance is mandatory

It’s a good thing that a 57 year old named “Bob” that you have never heard of, never voted for, and have absolutely no ability to contact, or any option of questioning has just made a decision that massively effects your life, permanently, and will cost you a huge portion of your life savings and tons of your time..

And as it is an “administrative” position and decision. You have no option to complain, or have any sort of elected representative alter, change, or cancel this decision.

Public service has now come to mean that the public exists to service its so-called servants.

I suppose as long as the the Feds who are spying on my emails and plotting to arrest me for exercising my Bill of Rights freedoms are watching Star Trek re-runs, it’s all OK with me.
