Transcripts For CSPAN2 Craig Huey The Deep State 20240713

Infrastructure that continues no matter what the administration is in the case here in the United States i talk about the deep state with Government Employees, i talk about how it has been different in the past and heres the thing i also talk about basically a collusion of non Government Entities that are in support of the government bureaucracy the deep estate. Lets start with the government bureaucracy. Is an important had a nonpartisan civil service. If youre taking a civics class in college. Thats it you think would be. Theres 1. 8 Million People that are in the federal government. Their State Government and local government. The 1. 8 million who are in the federal government you would hope that they were really efficient the managers are efficient. They understand what to do and get things done. Whenever you take a close look at Government People are shocked most people can relate to the dmv. There is your bureaucracy as youre waiting in line and finding that just as youre waiting to be served. You find that that administration. Because of how inefficient the bureaucrats of the that hospitals had been. You can go on about the water structure. That the idea of efficiency and bureaucracy lists are not compatible. There is a different type of thinking. What has happened is that we want to have people in government who are hardworking and effective and efficient administrators. But what has happened as we set is we set up a structure that number one people were unaccountable you hardly know if someone is doing their job or not and if you do discover they are not doing their job in todays bureaucracy they cannot be fired. We see that most commonly talked about in Public Schools where there is tenure you have an inefficient teacher and they cant be fired. Or you have a teacher that is doing harm to the kids. Government bureaucracy by its nature tries to hide we normally talk like this. The number one person purpose of the government bureaucracy is to protect itself. With knowledge of what theyre doing. To protect the budget. The number to part of bureaucracy and how do you go and justify the existence the bureaucracy. And those in and of itself our problems and if you have a non political Governmental Group how do you make it more efficient. The third factor is the bureaucracy. With president obama when he came in one of the things i would do as i would have meetings in dc. One of the things i noticed right away from 2009 on whenever i went to a restaurant and wherever i would go out go to a meeting everywhere there are people were people in the 20s that have been hired they were not managers, they were unqualified to really run a department or be part of an infrastructure where bureau but they were hired and they were hired because they have an ideological agreement with president obama. And the bureaucracy became audiological. Their idea was not to simply the democrats one or the republicans won but lets transform society they have a mentality of big government. The government was the answer. The government was going to make a better society. And that is a deep belief system that they have a purpose. When the shock came unlike in the past many of these bureaucrats stayed in power. It enabled them to be able to subvert policy of donald trump to be able to leak stories that would be harmful to donald trump to be able to actively resist what was going on. We have an absolute war going on in any of the bureaucracies. And its estimated one third of those bureaucrats were wanting to resist what was going on. And thats going on today. It was mainly im there to do a good job i am there to be able to transform society. Thats where you have videos coming out to people that during the day when theyre being paid to be a bureaucrat are actively worth participating. Is this unique in your view to the obama appointee burrowing in to the bureaucracy . Unique in this respect. When Ronald Reagan became president he brought in they brought them into the administration and into the powers. We did not have the situation where there was the protection so that when the next administration came in you were able to have a changeover so with the george bush and then with clinton you are able to have a changeover now because it was impossible to fire someone and there were 70 protections that obama had put into place. In protection of the bureaucrat they gave them power. At of 8,000 people and executive services which is called obamas army. Theres 8,000 people who are key players in hiring and firing in making policy decisions that are actively resistant. What are the roots of turkey of the deep state. They discovered they have to be able to move about policy regardless of what was happening at the top. You could see in turkey all kinds of politics going on. A lot of turmoil going on. But the bureaucracy was able to keep stability within infrastructure. To keep the roads paved. And to do is what is necessary for the infrastructure in the governing but also, two be able to to protect the people of wealth. To protect the companys that had favor within the infrastructure. That is where the private collusion comes into play with deep estate. And thats what makes this so unusual with president trump. As an unexpected president one who beat the system all the way through. Where they didnt have the normal wealthy donors behind them he did not had to worry about being obedient and having favor and doing special favors for the private groups. And normally that collusion goes on and they have just lit a fire storm incredible disconnect with what has been in the past and what is today. Is he being successful in your view. When i take a look at his policy and his deregulation it has been incredible and huge. I see businesses throughout the United States that have been able to expand their been able to build more jobs and increase wages. The deregulation has been trumps number one accomplishment. Many would say its a supreme court. When i take a look at these policies and what theyve done. He has been successful there. The infrastructure of the state department. He bypassed the epa. It have official reports condemning their own president ial policies. The cabinet members policies going back to the one third quantity of them within infrastructure at war. Resisting whats going on. Is he has asked successful as he could about. What do you do for a living . I have several companies im an entrepreneur, im a marketing expertise it is known worldwide by the books ive written and the speeches i get. In the winter of 90 rewards. We do advanced marketing in politics and in business. And in my other hat it is in the hat of politics. Im very active in the political realm. I concentrate in california so i operate nationwide. It brought my marketing expertise to what was happening politically. I did and possible run for an office it was a 20point democratic district and i was running as a republican. The republicans have taken over congress in 2010. She have lost any influence and power. And there is a race going on and i get these phone calls from several people. And they said craig you need to run. Nobody knows who i am. I was getting these calls. I decided to take the risk. It was a great experience it was the most bloodied, nastiest thing ive ever seen in my life. I couldnt believe how bad politics could get. Heres what happened. I ran in a district im in a use my marketing expertise. And i will try to win this election. I was doing that as i did it i was running against the secretary of state who everybody thought would be number one or two. And then the han family of california that was the la councilwoman. And then the mayor of Redondo Beach and a bunch of candidates with name recognition. On election day i almost beat the number one person which was janice hahn. I came out of nowhere. They were coming at me who is this guy. How did he come out of nowhere. All the sudden obama got into the campaign nancy pelosi got into the campaign. They got into this one Congressional Campaign and i was surprised as the election was coming up. The poles were polls were showing that i might win. I would go to the store and someone would say craig. I hear that youre more of a socialist. The capitalist. I heard that you are for abortion not against it. I can figure out couldnt figure out why these people were getting what were basically phone calls. With the data and information about me. We couldnt figure out what was going on. The election comes a lose by a couple of thousand votes. I would have one. It was kind of a shocker. The day after the election the la times reports that president obama was shocked by the loss of 2010 so he got together the best minds of facebook and google. He got together a team of people who developed an incredible marketing machine. Ever put together. He put this thing together and gathered the data on what people believed and divided it between how they get republicans not to vote, how do they get that base of democrats out to vote. He knew what their top issues were and they had advanced Digital Marketing it would now be legal on facebook in a variety of Different Things and the la times reported that they have the 400,000 plus phone calls that my consultants would say dont worry about those those are just quick little calls. They were intense calls of ten to 15 minutes of data. And an army of people over the United States thousands of people that the la times reported. He put together for the campaign. And we lost. But what i did was i started studying what he did and i said zero my gosh this is what we do for our own clients. This is the most advanced data modeling. What he has done is transformed politics and we were the test case 2012 comes around romney didnt know what hit him. It was a complete wipeout. And so i learned from that and what is interesting to bring that story up to date was along comes 2016 and when he was running his campaign was in such a disarray. It was unorganized. At the last minute they pulled together who is now in the Campaign Manager the most advanced Digital Campaign Hillary Clinton was relied upon all of the geniuses from 2012 but marketing changes so fast. And for years what was good then was that was not good now so marketing changes quick. They were doing the old marketing of 2012 it was the most modern advanced marketing. He immobilized the church vote. Like never before. Hillary lost because she was not using the most advanced marketing, trump did. Is the deep state defeat a bowl the deep state is something from the people that oppose collective visit. They want to see limited government. And believe that individual freedom is the goal. The amount of downsizing that has to take place on the state and local level is a mess. The infrastructure of the bureaucracy is to protect itself to keep growing and that has not been stopped. Trump is trying to figure it out thats why you have the bureau of Land Management they are about ready to move their people out of washington dc because they cant fire them. He can move them out. A lot of them are not going to move their going to resign. And then they will put them out into colorado or wherever it might be. Those are the only ways that youre to be able to break the deep state bureaucracy. A few examples that you use in your book number one fema. It is such a horrific example because people were hurt by the failure here you have a slow moving bureaucracy. They want to help. But theyre tied down by regulations. By structures and rules they are slow to act. They are reactive not proactive. When a hurricane happens when a disaster happens they are about the last people to come in. It is the churches on the ground. The volunteer groups who are coming in immediately and the problem with fema is that they naturally want to stop these people from coming in with the rules and regulations that would harm them from coming in. Instead of making an alliance with them. Under the Trump Administration he wants to encourage the volunteer independent sector. They are the first ones to help and they are the major help that people have. My wife went down to houston. And fema was nowhere. They were tearing down walls, gutting houses. Its independent groups that are really the backbone of america. When he wrote the democracy in america. Back in the 1830s. He looked around and from his experience in france in europe and what have you they never saw anything like it. They sought the deep state basically of all these governments that people relied upon with the king and the government to be able to provide resources and services. It was people helping people. And they did such a better job than any bureaucrat can because they know exactly what the situation as on is on a oneone basis. And they did such a better job than any bureaucrat can because they know exactly what the situation is on a oneone basis. The wealth of the washington area. When you take a look at the bloated salaries of the bureaucracy is a sweetheart deal between the insurance that they have and incomes of a couple hundred thousand dollars per year that theyre getting. The average person does not get. One of the things that breaks my heart is a Business Owner as i take a look and i see people wanting to get into business. The incredible Economic Growth that we are seen at the end of the day is something that we have new ways to be able to help people live better. What you have with the government. As they stifle that. To make your own experience with the socalled deep state. See mac i have many experiences with government regulatory agencies. They faced a government lawyer who thinks they are doing something wrong and there might be a small infraction. They use unlimited mid time and money to get them my only my own personal experience when i was starting up in business our government bureaucrat came into my office i have an examination in my book probably six different times they took a look at my book and they saw nothing wrong with what i was doing. And this one government bureaucrat says oh, you should separate copy and because you didnt separate that the whole bill has to be taxed. It doesnt make sense. Only the one portion of final art needs to be taxed. Not 90 of the bill. I cant go back and get that money. I went through the appeal process. I have paid all my taxes. The wrong way of doing the billing there is no fraud here. We were honestly paying our taxes. If you cant pay your tax bill you dont deserve to be in business. In his attitude was ive got to get that money and doesnt matter if its right or wrong. Its can put you out of business or not. Ive got have that money. And thats kind of the mentality when people have these government positions and the have these powers that are excessive. The power comes to their head. And they become abusive right now so many of these agencies and Government Employees are abusing the power because they can. Used self published the deep state. I have an ad agency. I can make more money selling the book myself because i know how to market it. This is my third book. I had two more coming out and its a better way for me to be able to make the sale. Its available on amazon, the kindle and they can get at deep state. Com. Fifteen surprising dangers you should know. Take you for being on book tv.
