Short list my ass
I took a year off work to investigate the "deep state secret society" and all I found was a mediation club.

It sounds like “Deep State” became too cartoonish 👻 ☠️ so they played a little word salad & decided “Secret Society” would be taken more seriously 👽😂 I think #Hannity & #TreyHowdyDoody came up with this plan.


Proud *Deep (Dish) State* Member @PrincessSoupCan
I just have questions-
Can I be in the Deep State & the Secret Society at same time?
Do I get extra Magical Mythical Unicorn points on my Soros Club card if I am?
What if I trained my toaster to spy just like my microwave? Is that more Secret Society or Deep State behavior?

Hey all.
Just a reminder that the Secret Society cell of the Deep State will be meeting at midnight tonight to discuss internment of MAGA-Americans at the Area 51 re-education camp.
Please don’t let Sean Hannity know.

is a Secret Society:

WASHINGTON — As President Barack Obama was celebrating his inauguration at various balls, top Republican lawmakers and strategists were conjuring up ways to submarine his presidency at a private dinner in Washington.


According to Draper, the guest list that night (which was just over 15 people in total) included Republican Reps. Eric Cantor (Va.), Kevin McCarthy (Calif.), Paul Ryan (Wis.), Pete Sessions (Texas), Jeb Hensarling (Texas), Pete Hoekstra (Mich.) and Dan Lungren (Calif.), along with Republican Sens. Jim DeMint (S.C.), Jon Kyl (Ariz.), Tom Coburn (Okla.), John Ensign (Nev.) and Bob Corker (Tenn.). The non-lawmakers present included Newt Gingrich, several years removed from his presidential campaign, and Frank Luntz, the long-time Republican wordsmith. Notably absent were Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) — who, Draper writes, had an acrimonious relationship with Luntz.

For several hours in the Caucus Room (a high-end D.C. establishment), the book says they plotted out ways to not just win back political power, but to also put the brakes on Obama’s legislative platform.

...that would make J. Edgar Hoover's head explode...

...other than the thought of black people having sex. That would ALWAYS explode his head worse.
