Are the White House and Pentagon Controlled by a Shadowy Few?

As we approach the 2024 election, many Americans are disillusioned by the notion that their votes truly matter.

Why? Because there’s a growing belief that a hidden force – often referred to as the Deep or Administrative State – wields disproportionate power behind the scenes.

Despite our democratic process, can we truly trust that our elected leaders are running the country, or are they merely figureheads for a larger, more insidious operation?

Consider the historical context: Barack Obama’s admiration for Saul Alinsky and Hillary Clinton’s thesis on his methods are no coincidence. Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”—specifically, Rule 8 (Keep the pressure on) and Rule 13 (Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it)—have been adopted as strategies by those who seek to manipulate and control political narratives.

Let’s review some unsettling examples:

• 2016 Election: The FBI misled Congress about the dubious Steele dossier, fueling a media frenzy that sought to destroy Donald Trump. This dossier, which claimed Trump was a Russian agent, was debunked, yet it set the stage for relentless attacks on his presidency.
• Hunter Biden Laptop: During the 2020 election, 51 former intelligence officials publicly denounced the New York Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story as Russian disinformation. Yet, as revealed by the House Judiciary Committee, FBI employees knew the laptop was legitimate but still pressured social media companies to suppress it.
• Censorship During COVID-19: Mark Zuckerberg’s letter to Representative Jim Jordan in August 2024 admitted to bowing to administration pressure to censor COVID-19 posts. This highlights a broader pattern of censorship and manipulation.
• Impeachment Trials: The relentless pursuit to impeach Trump, despite his acquittal, was another clear instance of the Deep State’s interference in democracy.
• 2023-2024 Trials: The ongoing legal attacks against Trump in multiple states are not just about legal accountability—they are strategic moves to drain his resources, distract his campaign, and tarnish his reputation.
