Reforming the so-called “deep state” of America’s intelligence and security apparatus constitutes an enthusiastic core objective for President Donald Trump’s second administration. But does Team Trump care to understand where to find the rot?

On paper, MAGA’s commitment to ridding the Deep State of corruption is clear. This week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced the creation of the Director’s Initiatives Group devoted to “investigating weaponization, rooting out deep-seeded politicization, exposing unauthorized disclosures of classified intelligence, and declassifying information that serves a public interest.” The new DIG is also supposed to streamline the intelligence community to reduce wasteful spending.
