The term “shadow government” is not a construct of critics;
it’s actually the term the professional bureaucrats within the 7th floor
of the Washington DC based Department of State gave to themselves (see Image Below).
The career political operatives who reign within the State Department
openly view themselves as a distinctly separate state governing
authority, with no attachment to the policies or objectives of the
United States or any mere elected official therein.
For decades this group has considered themselves “the untouchables”.
They live a life of high financed indulgence including: massive expense accounts, chartered airline travel, swanky cocktail parties, expense chauffeurs to take their kids to private school, seasonally designed home decor – appointed by only the very best interior designers, personal security to keep the commoners away, tickets to the best venues and reserved seating at elite DC restaurants.
With first rights to the budget expenditures, the 7th floor group finds no indulgence too extravagant for their intellectual elitism. They demand nothing but the finest because they are the most worthy of the DC professionally privileged – who are more equal than others; and after all, their jobs require them to host and visit like-minded diplomats, and celebrities with exclusive tastes from around the world.
President Donald Trump has done something NO politician, left of right, has ever done. He fired them all...
Much of seventh-floor untouchable ELITE, who work for the Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources and the Counselor offices, were told today that their services were no longer needed.
