In August I was watching a segment of the Sean Hannity program while at a friend's house and noticed that despite an hour of Hannity ranting against the "Deep state" in the US, he was wearing a lapel pin bearing the seal of the US Central Intelligence agency, which most would agree is either the center or at least an important hub of the US "Deep state" itself.
Today the CIA is merely one arm in a multi-faceted US "Regime change" apparatus that includes the US State Department, USAID, and, very importantly, US government-funded "Non-governmental" organizations like the National Endowment for Democracy and its sub-grantees.
Americans have been manipulated by the elites in government and its allies in state propaganda to accept, particularly post-9/11, the deeply anti-American proposition that we must yield our privacy and Constitutionally-guaranteed civil liberties to a government that promises it will not abuse its increased power over us but will only use it to keep us safe.
Part of this is the US "Deep state" or "National security state" and part of it is the increasing integration of US corporate entities into the US government.
The US has ceased being a republic and has become a national security state.
The US national security state enriches its elites - be they in the military-industrial complex, the think tanks, or the media - at the expense of middle class and working-class America.
The US national security state fought an 18-year "War on terror" which only seemed to generate more terrorists! Intervention in Iraq and Libya and Syria to "Fight terrorism" resulted in more, not less, al-Qaeda and ISIS. It was not until Russia and Iran stood up in 2015 and began fighting these US-backed groups that there was a reduction in their power.
