Washington • The bad guys in former Rep. Jason Chaffetz’s new book, “The Deep State,” are not a surprise: federal government bureaucrats.
The book, “The Deep State: How an army of bureaucrats protected Barack Obama and is working to destroy Donald Trump,” is 223 pages of Chaffetz's contempt for federal workers he assails as going against America's Founding Fathers' goal of limited government and trying to undermine elected officials.
"The Deep State is real,” Chaffetz writes. “They don’t like exposure, accountability, or responsibility. They fight back, outlast, and work the system for their advantage. And they certainly don’t like disruptive forces such as Donald Trump.
