Living the Deep State

"Listen, people, everyone knows where this is going. If this was a legit op, and I can't imagine how it could be, then so be it. But if this was someone's unilateral wet dream, then that someone is going to prison."
--Admiral Shaffer (Enemy of the State)

Meadows is correct. The chorus of bureaucrats testifying at the impeachment circus demonstrate the officials in various federal agencies are behaving as if they set foreign policy. This, of course, is not their job.

Unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. work for the President.

Not the other way around. https://t.co/f840sN9CH6

Their job is to execute foreign policy set by the president.

When unelected agency bureaucrats go off the reservation and act unilaterally on policy matters, they are living the Deep State.
