Of the "deep state" and the inverse, partisan logic of "believability"

Not long after President Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory, Conservative talk show hosts began to speak about the establishment in government that began to come forward and pronounce themselves by speech or behavior as “never Trumpers” - in other words, the below cabinet member level establishment, the career federal government civil service bureaucrat resistance to the new President and his “Make America Great Again” policies.

The more successful Trump and his policies became the more hard-line and obvious their resistance became. It wasn’t long before this resistance began being referred to as the “Deep State;” by definition “a body of...influential members of government agencies..., believed to be involved in the secret manipulation or control of government policy.”

Until this past week, I’d more or less thought of the “Deep State” as more hyperbole than reality.

But, this past week, America has been forced to watch one of the most embarrassing, disgusting and utterly revolting displays imaginable by the Legislative branch of our federal government.

We have been forced to watch our tax dollars wasted while Democrat senators on the Judiciary Committee grilled a 53-year-old sitting federal judge (now a Supreme Court nominee) explain and defend his behavior as a 17 year old high school student right down to the immature notes he wrote in someone’s yearbook about their flatulence problems or their tendency to stutter when saying the “F word.”

Really? Seriously? Our tax dollars funding days and days of Senators’ time to talk about immature teenagers tee-hee-hee’ing about farts and the “F word?”

We had to watch while his family had to watch the absolutely inane allegations that he as a teenager had inappropriately groped her and tried to take her clothes off at a party - a charge supported by so little corroboration that her allegations made a torn piece of cheesecloth look more sturdy, solid and capable of “holding more water” than her case against the nominee.

Yet this flaky accuser, whose physical appearance made her more resemble the Garth Agar character in “Wayne’s World” and a person with obvious “issues” than a professional with credible testimony, and her grossly uncorroborated allegations were resoundingly declared believable by the “usual suspects” on the Democrat side of the Judiciary Committee.

What made that even more appalling and falling was their judgment that even though the nominee consistently denied the allegations AND that his classmates at the time who were at the event in question sent in testimony sworn under penalty of perjury that the nominee was not present at all at said event let alone behaved in the way alleged, he was not believable or credible but she was.

Many other female former HS and college classmates as well as adult colleagues all signed a letter defending nominee Kavenaugh saying he is not such a beast as this allegation would imply – but still, the Democrat side of the aisle and other brainwashed liberals like them believe HER and not HIM.

When the testimony of their straw accuser, Dr Christine Blasey-Ford, came under reasonable doubt - she doesn’t know how she got to the party, she doesn’t know how she got home from it, she didnt exactly see Brett Kavenaugh during her attack but she is, by God, “100% sure” he was the one who did it. And, still they believe her not him.

Apparently her firm opinions didn’t bother her enough when Kavenaugh was a sitting federal judge since 2003 to bring her charges up. Only when he became a Trump nominee for Associate Justice to the Supreme Court, then and only then did it bother her enough to speak up.

And, isn’t it a coincidence that Blasey-Ford is 1) a registered Democrat, 2) has made contributions to political organizations that support the Democrat agenda, 3) last year she participated in a local Women's March protesting President Trump as well as 4) attended a San Francisco (always a haven for far-out left-wing types) March for Science to protest the Trump administration's cuts to research?

Not only that, she’s demonstrated her capacity for flaky memory and falsehood both.

Firstly, she couldn’t remember hardly ANY details at all about the July, 1982 party she and Kavenaugh were at and at which she was “100% sure” Kavenaugh attacked her at yet she couldn’t even remember if she’d given the Washington Post her therapy notes just a few weeks ago!

Secondly, - claiming she couldn’t immediately appear before the Judiciary Committee in the time they wanted because she was clear across the country and afraid of flying. Isn’t it interesting how in reality she was a veteran airline traveler (Blasey-Ford’s own C.V., confirmed in her sworn testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee just last week, lists her interests in surf travel to Hawaii, Costa Rica, South Pacific islands and French Polynesia.) Not only that, but she freely admitted that she travels once a year to nearby Delaware every year at the end of July, the first of August for family reunions. In fact, she was JUST THERE A FEW WEEKS AGO.

So, she claims she has a fear of flying unless it’s traveling for fun. Blasey-Ford said in her own sworn testimony last week says [It is] “Easier for me to travel…when it’s a vacation.” She claims that she couldn’t travel to DC to testify because of her alleged fear of flying and schedule commitments but, in reality, at the time, she was not across the country at all but just a state or two away from Washington, DC and could’ve drove down there in the allowed time?

Yet, this woman was immediately and continually pronounced “believable” and her flimsy allegations instantly “credible” by the whackjob leftists on the Judiciary Committee like those bitter, vicious hags Diane Feinstein (D-CA), Kamala Harris (another D-CA) and “Crazy Mazie” Hirono (D-HI).

Unbelievable.

And, as such, the derogatory descriptions of this past week's proceedings - "a circus", "despicable," "no longer advise and counsel but search and destroy"  are accurate.

What’s even more appalling is when one realizes the not-so-veiled threat in all of this Kangaroo Court that’s been putting nominee Kavenaugh through these past weeks; that message is, “This will happen to you, too if you dare oppose the ‘deep state.’”

Yes, the way Brett Kavenaugh has been smeared, slandered and humiliated - all under the false colors of “how good of a Supreme Court Justice would he make” - has convinced me the deep state is real.
