Senior health officials in the Trump administration were taken aback last Monday when the president's trade adviser, Peter Navarro, accused them of being part of the "Deep State" during a meeting that was supposed to be about COVID-19 and the Strategic National Stockpile.
Why it matters: Five days after Navarro's private comments toward the FDA, the president echoed Navarro's sentiments with a pair of Saturday morning tweets and tagged Stephen Hahn, the head of the Food and Drug Administration.
- "The deep state, or whoever, over at the FDA is making it very difficult for drug companies to get people in order to test the vaccines and therapeutics," the president tweeted. "Obviously, they are hoping to delay the answer until after November 3rd. Must focus on speed, and saving lives!"
- Trump then attacked the FDA for revoking its emergency use authorization "of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for treating COVID-19 amid growing evidence that the drugs are 'unlikely to be effective' in treating the coronavirus."

The deep state, QAnon administration
What an appalling administration:
Peter is quite correct. The deep state is not a QAnon idea. The QAnon idea is the false hope of being able to defeat these monsters anytime soon. Q Anon's idea is that Trump is coming to the rescue against the deep state. Crazy stuff. We would have to nationalise usury to defeat the deep state, just for starters. Fauci, though he's starting to talk more sense now, is clearly a deep state operative. We know this from his biowarfare activities going years back.
ReplyDeleteNavaro is a sharp fellow. One of the few intelligent men amongst a group of thieves, liars and losers. Its got nothing to do with Q Anon. Peter is too close to the President to be duped into thinking that he's any kind of saviour. Trump sometimes does a few good small things. Peter is not deluded enough to hope for much more than that I would suggest.
stupid is as stupid does
