The US deep state goes back centuries, but the modern form stems from a 1963 coup which fused an alliance into a single coherent
Cabal. Under the leadership of
George H. W. Bush after the
Watergate coup, the group became centered on the
Bush family. It has been aggressively waging a "
War On Terror" since
9-11 quickened the
supranational deep state. In recent years it has lacked clear leadership and suffered
leaks, infighting, short-termism & confusion about handling its increasingly public profile.
