The deep state is shorthand for the vast network of career bureaucrats and unelected operatives working to advance an agenda that never faces public scrutiny.
Of course, liberal publications like The Nation have dismissed the deep state as a "Conspiracy theory." But in July, the Washington Post's Eugene Robinson praised it in his column: "God bless the Deep State."
Even if the deep state is a figment of conservative imaginations, its counterpart-the administrative state-is an apparatus of government that progressive activists acknowledge and actively work to expand.
Environmentalists aren't the only special interest groups responsible for growing the size and strength of the federal government so large that policy experts have to entertain the existence of the deep state.
The possibility of a deep state operative or career administrative-state bureaucrat working against the executive branch from within is worrisome.
The left might have ignored the role of the deep state in previous administrations, but that's because it has largely worked-and continues to work-in the left's favor.
Liberals should consider the consequences of that deep state turning against them in the future.
