The article discusses the ambiguous role of the deep state in the U.S. government, drawing insights from FBI director Kash Patel's book, Government Gangsters. Patel emphasizes the covert nature of deep state operations, which exploit obscure legal frameworks to manipulate power dynamics away from public scrutiny. An example is cited where legal exemptions intended for disabled workers were misused to integrate SpaceX employees into the FAA. The term 'deep state' reflects historical instances of unelected officials influencing policy behind the scenes, first identified in 1970s Turkey, and prompts concerns over governmental transparency and accountability.
FBI director Kash Patel's book, Government Gangsters, emphasizes the deep state's reliance on operating in shadows, manipulating obscure legal frameworks familiar to few, and executing political moves in secret.
Patel highlights that sketchy legal tactics have led to questionable actions by DOGE, including using exemptions meant for helping disabled workers to employ SpaceX staff at the FAA.
