Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy Paperback – August 1, 2024

This impressive product takes the reader thru the author's journey on how he witnessed and battled agents of the "Deep State ' (DS), what he did to win, and how the American People can defeat them for good. The first four parts of the book are his experiences in four government areas (ODIA, NSA, DOJ, and DOD). Part five is his observations and participation in the January 6th, 2020, Washington DC Capital riots.Chapters four and five are intensely interesting in describing how "Russia Gate" was instigated and conducted. Unbeknownst to me, he and Trey Gowdy's investigation and their interaction with the House of Representatives is more than remarkable. The investigative process on their behalf probably saved the credibility of the American Government. The reader should now absorb this 2023 material set forth and determine if Kash Patel (KP) has any impact on the DS he alludes to in the text in his new position as Director of the FBI to reform the agency and eliminate the "Two Tier System of Justice."More than half-way through the book the author and eyewitness, describes in a "nutshell" the incident and DS prosecution of General Michael Flynn. Here allegedly now proven, the entire Obama Administration (OA) unmasked and targeted Flynn, incoming National Security Advisor, over a legal phone call with his Russian counterpart resulting in wrongful prosecution. Here the OA politicized the incoming National Security Apparatus to upset the new administration.The product is sturdy, well edited, easy on the eyes, and communicates very well in its five parts, three interesting addendums, documents, and reference material. There is no index nor photographs which is disappointing, but it has a section of cast of characters for easy reference. It is an easy read of 207 pages of argumentative descriptive text. The reader should be watching to determine if KP can make a difference in his present position. He needs to tread carefully for the DS will surely be on him continuously.If you missed the national political situation in the United States over the past nine years, this would enormously assist you in your understanding of the events. He tells it like it is!

… “something is seriously not right in this country…”You NEED this book. Take your time to *absorb* what is laid out here. Little in it is new. It does cover more recent *examples* of what you may be seeing, experiencing. But, sadly, none of it is “new.”It MUST be said: this book is NOT about Donald Trump. It is about events and circumstances that HAPPENED while Donald Trump was in the White House. However, “Government Gangsters” is much more about Kash Patel’s LEARNING CURVE in Washington DC & the innermost workings of YOUR GOVERNMENT.We did not “get here” starting in 2020, or 2016, or 2012, or 2008, or 2004, or 2000, or… you get my point. THIS has been infiltrating and invading our Constitutional Republic for no less than 60 YEARS.So many complain, “does not matter who I vote for President or which party wins. We just keep getting different flavors of the same stuff as things slowly get worse and worse. Does not matter who gets elected as our Senator or Representative, nothing changes.”You are not just getting cynical and that is not just your imagination. That, is by design. Further, the problem actually is not because of the President or Congress… well, it *is*, just not in the way most assume.The problem is far more complex than who sits in the White House or Capitol Building seats. Some may truly mean the things they have promised. Those people just have no idea how Washington DC works… or, more accurately, does not work.“Government Gangsters” does a stellar job laying out the facts that the real problems are not our Executive Branch nor Legislative Branch and in many ways not our Judicial Branch. The problems, plural, are far deeper.Every incoming Administration is met with a BUREAUCRATIC ADMINISTRATIVE STATE via unelected agencies who are supported by the Media Complex.Every 2 yrs every House Representative has to win/lose their seat. Every 2 yrs one third of the Senate will win/lose their seat. Every 4yrs a President will win/lose their Office.But the Administrative State & their accomplices in the various UNELECTED AGENCIES and MEDIA COHORTS remain basically the same.No where in the Constitution have these entities been give authority nor power to decide… anything. But, they do. They ignore the sitting President unless he agrees with THEIR agenda. They ignore Congress unless they are pushing THEIR agenda and narrative.Kash Patel, as one relatively new to this political jungle, learned all this the HARD way. Fortunately for him, and many of those with whom he worked, they had a President who was the consummate outsider as well. Someone who, as a businessman - in construction - had already learned how to effectively maneuver through bureaucratic red tape, slow-walking documents, and otherwise throwing a wrench in the gears of getting a job done on time and under budget. A President who had observed the monster from the outside, taken notes, knew the “players,” and was determined to do in the political world what he had accomplished in the business world: turn failures into wins by effectively using the rules to aid in the objective, never give up, never quit, push forward against every headwind.Kash Patel describes EXACTLY what kinds of obstacles and road blocks that Administrative State, more commonly called “The Deep State” these days, could and would mount to protect *THEIR* AGENDA AND *THEIR* NARRATIVE.For me, much of this was not new. I had learned about different aspects of this monster over the years, beginning with the Watergate debacle which caused me to notice that what the Constitution told me to expect from my Government was NOT what I was getting. And Richard Nixon was NOT the main problem. Over the years I have become suspicious he may in fact have mostly gotten in their way more than any other “crime.”I should note that I did not LIKE Donald Trump. Was aggravated he was running in 2015, horrified he was the only “alternative” to someone I trusted even less, but was won over as I saw he was DOING what he SAID he would do. At least, he was making a greater effort than any I had ever seen. I became amazed as I observed him accomplish many goals despite virtually everyone being against him on every level every day.“Government Gangsters” is NOT a book about Donald Trump. It IS a documentary tome of that which the DJT Administration and staff fought against AT EVERY TURN.More importantly, this book EXPOSES the Machiavellian machinations and corruption and alternative agenda that has become “our democracy.”It will be an eye opener for many about HOW WA DC ACTUALLY RUNS and WHY things never seem to “get better.” You will learn little about Donald Trump. You will learn a LOT about why YOUR LIFE gets worse with every election… and steps that CAN be taken to CHANGE *YOUR* government.More than just “another four year election” will be required but it CAN be changed so that YOU live a better, freer, more prosperous life… as well as future generations.

Good stuff! We have so much corruption, but yet we don’t see anyone in handcuffs. It has been wild the last five years and no doubt these politicians and people from the alphabet soup should be prosecuted for treason and tyranny. For years, the media has used their power to divide the people and they’ve been doing it for years

Well written with a lot of first hand information on the Deep State along with footnotes and appendices supporting the information presented. And it’s wonderful to see the author now implementing his suggestions, as Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, two years after writing the book.

Kash Patel does one of the hardest things an author can set out to do. He tells a hard, complicated story in a way that is enthralling and easy to understand.

Kash Patel is clearly a patriotic hero. I am so thankful for his dedication to truth and the rule of law.Exciting times ahead with Kash at the helm of the FBI.

From what I heard will be an interesting read. Only just started so more later.

Great, God bless you and all of the MAGA and American patriots that stand with us. Our nation is now being run by the sane adults. God Bless America
