A large number of former CIA operatives and officials are running for Congress in the 2018 midterms as Democrats, which may help to explain why there has been so much opposition to President Donald J. Trump’s policies in the intelligence community.
In fact, the WSWS notes further, the number of ex-Deep Staters running under the Democratic Party ticket is unprecedented, accounting for nearly half of the 102 primaries to choose Democrats in competitive House races, 44 “involve candidates with a military-intelligence or State Department background, with 11 districts having two such candidates, and one district having three.”
Internet entrepreneur Kim Dotcom sees this move as a growing nexus of power between the military-industrial-intelligence complex, the media, and the Democratic Party.
