It is always interesting to watch what the media does when a the House or Senate changes hands. CNN, MSNBC and the Dead Tree media have dutifully, often ridiculously, continued protecting the Democrats as they stretch logic beyond its limits. They instinctively maintain their alignment and allegiance to the political left without a thought.

Moreover, it indicates that there is a monolithic Deep State and we have a representative republic in name only.

“No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth!”
