Trump is gutting twenty years of post-9/11 spy rules to fight the 'Deep State'
Remember all those massive reforms America cobbled together after 2001 so spy agencies would actually share notes? Trump is taking a sledgehammer to them.
After 9/11, the entire American intelligence community got rebuilt from the ground up because nobody was talking to each other and the system failed in the worst way possible. It took twenty years of painful bureaucratic duct tape to finally make all the three-letter agencies play in the same sandbox.
Now Trump is tearing through that architecture, convinced the mythical "deep state" is lurking in every hallway. Twenty years of post-disaster security reforms are being dismantled in the name of a political purge.
Decades spent forcing spy chiefs to share notes, completely wiped out because someone is terrified of what those notes might say.
