US Deep State in Deep Trouble

US ruling power is in deep trouble because there are growing signs that the mass of citizens are no longer beholden to the supposed authority residing in Washington.
by Finian Cunningham
Once the legitimacy of would-be authorities begins to collapse in the eyes of the people, then profound political change is in the offing, as history shows us through countless empires that came and went – often ignominiously.
The so-called American Deep State comprising the military-intelligence apparatus and its operatives in the political and media establishment has put its credibility on the line over allegations of Russian interference in the US elections.
Those allegations are threadbare, indeed baseless, despite concerted, overweening attempts by the Deep State to conjure up something of substance.
The latest high-level intelligence report from the CIA, NSA, FBI and other US spy agencies on alleged Russian cyber hacking may have “wowed” President Barack Obama, various members of Congress and the corporate-controlled news media.
Not so for ordinary Americans. Among rank-and-file citizens the reaction has been underwhelming to say the least. And that should be a matter of anxiety for the ruling establishment. If the people can no longer be commanded, then the whole foundation for power begins to erode like a sandcastle.
As a New York Times report put it: “What’s the big deal? asks Trump’s supporters on Russian hacking report”.
Among ordinary voters far removed from the Washington Beltway Bubble the consensus is one of derision towards the once-revered US intelligence community.
“Sore losers”, “sour grapes”, “crybabies” and “absurd” were just some of the disbelieving responses from ordinary folks about claims that Russian agents directed by Russian President Vladimir Putin had tipped the US November election in favor of Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton.
“I don’t believe the [US] intel report,” said one man in Louisiana. “Why is everybody so afraid of Russia? I’m not against Putin.”
Another man, a retired US air force officer, added: “From the parts of the [US intel] report I’ve seen it seems silly.”
President-elect Trump, once again, seems more in tune with the real, pressing concerns of common citizens. He emerged from his so-called “briefing” by US intelligence chiefs last Friday and pointedly refused to join the Washington blowhards accusing Russia of “an act of war”. Trump in fact followed up with a comment that it was only a “stupid” person would not want to have good relations with Russia.
This was not the response that the spooks wanted from Trump. The CIA and their surrogates in the Obama administration, Congress and the media were building up the US intel report like a witch-hunt against anyone who dares to dissent from the allegations of Russian cyber interference. Unlike warmongering Congress members such as John McCain and Lyndsey Graham, Trump has not jumped on the bandwagon to demonize Russia.
And the thing is that people beyond the thrall of the Deep State centered in Washington appear to agree with Trump. At a time of immense social challenges from poverty, unemployment, financial indebtedness, deteriorating infrastructure and public services, and so on, a US policy of hostility towards Russia seems like an alien distraction. A contemptible waste of priority and resources, not to say a reckless drumbeat to war between nuclear powers.
The US intelligence agencies, aided by the Obama White House and mainstream media, tried to muster gravitas to play its “Russian card” against Trump. But Trump and the popular sentiment out there are not responding in the deferential manner expected by the spooks.
In fact, despite sensationalist headlines in the mainstream media about “Putin ordering an influence campaign to help Trump win the election”, the US intelligence agencies are now in real danger of being exposed as ridiculous liars.
The collapse of the US establishment has been underway for sometime, but lately the momentum has quickened with the election of Trump and the mainstream media’s penchant for “fake narratives”. Last week the Washington disgraced itself by running a story about Russia hacking into the US electric, a story which was quickly exposed as “fake news”.
On the latest US intel report, as well as Trump and ordinary Americans, many observers from around the world were taken aback by the amateurish dearth of evidence and generally low quality of analysis. Independent cyber security experts, including US-based ones, poured scorn on the claims against Russia.
The US spy agencies claim that they have “supporting evidence” that Russia hacked Hillary Clinton’s emails, but they say, unconvincingly, that they can’t disclose the information in order to protect “sensitive sources and methods”. Such a conjuring trick just makes the US spooks and the subservient news media look even more ridiculous.
A major giveaway was the disproportionately huge focus that the US intelligence report devoted to trying to discredit Russian news media outlets, RT and Sputnik. The report claims that the news services are part of the Kremlin’s “influence campaign” and then cites its own ropey rationale as “evidence” that Russia hacked the US election. If that’s the best that America’s “national security guardians” can come up with then we can be sure their case against Russia is null and void.
There was a time in the American past when shadowy, unelected elites could control society through monopolistic, servile media and servile politicians kowtowing to their supposed authority. There was also a naive belief among people that the secret services were defending the nation’s best interests.
Not any more alas. People have got wise to the massive manipulation and criminality of such shadowy powers who orchestrate wars and regime changes all around the world for the narrow benefit of elite corporate power. Ordinary Americans pay with their lives and livelihoods for the machinations of the ruling cabal.
The Deep State intel chiefs may have been fawned over by Obama, Congress and the media in their outlandish claims of Russian subversion. But growing numbers of ordinary people in the US and around the world can see through the lies and blatant agenda of hostility towards Russia – an insane hostility that only serves the elite interests of the Deep State.
The once feared, and revered, US Deep State is now facing a deep dilemma and maybe even an existential crisis. For it knows deep down that its erstwhile credibility and authority are shot to pieces.
Down through history, the American rulers got away with their charade of inciting wars and conflicts through false flags and contrived catastrophes: the not-so-secret Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the fabricated Gulf of Tonkin incident that escalated the US genocidal war on Vietnam, the dubious 9/11 terror attacks and Iraq’s non-existent weapons of mass destruction, to mention just a few.
This same warmongering American ruling class want another arms race, Pentagon-pumping Cold War with Russia. But this time they have played a card that is all too evidently blank. The US spooks and their elitist establishment know that Trump, the American people, Russia and the rest of world all know that they have nothing to offer.
No credibility, no morals and no authority, the US Deep State is in deep trouble.

  1. Excellent as always, our Finian… This essay though, must be more up to date than the following interview Fox News had with Priebus, which according to the date, happened yesterday.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7fun1lLWGY
    Apparent this set the bird amongst the pigeons in DC — while if Finian considered it a big deal he would have mentioned it in his piece above…
    Still, would love to hear Finian’s thoughts on it— Is it part of a game Trump is playing with the DS caba? – I picked this up on The Duran– Good piece there too and strong response in the comment section …

    Editor CP—– Would appreciate reading your opinion on it too.. Thank you.

  3. I have seen no sign of the USA lowering any of its strategic antagonism.
    The Trump Presidency stills hangs in the balance with Obama passing Executive Laws by the dozen in the dark of night to Federalise the Main Stream Media & the Electoral Commission. Setting up the scene for a rerun of a cancelled election because of the fake #Russiahack MSM story.
    Also 100’s of USA tanks are flooding into Germany to add to all the other US troops, tanks & nuclear missile attack systems in the Baltic States which have been primed hot & targeted at Russia for over a month.
    Merkel shows no sign of retiring & the popular uprising in Europe could be the reason for the USA supporting her if she cancels the election. Martial Law has always been a NWO objective for Europe & the USA.
    And then there’s “Obama’s Brilliant Plan” to completely dis Israel over the 2 State Solution. Another fake play?
    The meeting of 70 countries in France to discuss the Israel & Palestine situation looks to me like a prime target set up for an “ISIS” bomb attack wiping out any opposition to the NWO at a stroke. And probably leaving the MSM with the job of blaming; Israel or Russia or Isis to start WW3 or Martial Law in all Western Democracies.
    Hopefully I am wrong.

  4. This article is an excellent lining up of the dots. The nations targeted by ISIS approximate the “7 countries in 5 years” plan, discovered in the Pentagon by former NATO general Wesley Clark, ten days after 9-11. The plan used US Military to accomplish the overthrow of the governments of the 7 nations. Obviously, the plan was shifted from the direct enactment by US military to ISIS, with subterfuge support by CIA, Pentagon officials and their “allies” within the European Union. Comrade Merkel has mimicked Obama since the G7 at Castle Elmau in Bavaria, June 2015, reflecting her leadership of the E.U. element of the subterfuge. Merkel sent German Air Force elements to the USAF (NATO) Base in Incirlik, Turkey, in support of the CIA-Pentagon subterfuge against Pres. Assad of Syria, essentially supporting ISIS-ISIL. The motive of comrade Merkel´s dictatorship is called up by searching the internet on the phrase, real jew news p=919 .
    Former USArmy PsyOps officer, Scott Bennett, explains in his videos that CIA funds are deposited into Swiss bank accounts assigned to ISIS leaders. Searching the internet on the phrase, dcclothesline Scott Bennett , pulls up a very revealing video.
    The recently increased “terrorism” in the E.U., the U.S., Turkey and Russia reflect movement toward a combined act of subterfuge against elected governments of the entire world, outside of the land-grant of 1948, fraudulently named, “Israel.” Books by former MOSSAD agents, Ari Ben-Menashe and Victor Ostrovsky reveal the deceit of Judaism´s MOSSAD and its continuous war against GOYIM.
