A childish worldview!!
I think it's naive to have this childish worldview where there is always something "above" in control.

The "deep state" is just the permanent bureaucracy.
The US federal govt has about 3 million employees. Those employees are careerist and they survive from administration to administration.
No matter what the "president" or "congress" says, nothing gets done without their buy-in.
This is not a childish view.

Is he confusing Illuminati with deep state?
reply
Thats how I read it.
Normally this permanent bureaucracy has its own infighting and is not aligned on every issue. The rise of Donald Trump prompted a rare alignment of all the factions primarily because he was an outsider who was free from their control.
This alignment made them visible.
Under the hood not above

Are you confusing Illuminati with deep state?
Deep state consists of permanent unelected career government employees especially in CIA, NSA, military, State Dept, Defense Dept and similar

The deep state has taken over the GOP as well. The issue is no one seems to acknowledge that the Tech/Data/Surveillance industry/three letter agencies are the actual deep state. Instead they view is as some abstract concepts of the deep state instead of what it actually is. It's why Musk purchased Twitter for user data and propaganda, and Theil has Palantir. It's how JD Vance is the VP pick and Musk is now funneling $45 million a month to the campaign in a tit for tat. It's a rigged election that no matter who wins, the people lose.
