URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!
(DC Pundit) – James O’Keefe and his O’Keefe Media Group have built a reputation for exposing what powerful institutions desperately want kept behind closed doors, and their latest undercover operation has delivered another bombshell — this time from inside the White House itself.
OMG released undercover video capturing two White House insiders making admissions that should have every Trump supporter’s blood boiling. The footage reveals exactly the kind of entrenched bureaucratic resistance that President Trump has been fighting since day one — the deep state, alive and well, operating right under the roof of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
First up is Benjamin Ellisten, a Budget Analyst Manager within the Executive Office of the President. “We have to get rid of Trump,” Ellisten said. “He’s f*cking it up for everybody….We’ve got to get rid of him.” A federal budget analyst, a man paid by American taxpayers, sitting inside the Executive Office of the President and openly calling for the removal of the man the American people elected. Ellisten has since been placed on administrative leave. Good start.
Then there’s Maxim Lott, a Special Assistant to President Trump on the White House Domestic Policy Council, who offered his own uncomfortable window into how domestic policy actually gets made. According to Lott, formal cost-benefit analysis is often skipped entirely, with decisions advanced simply because officials believe “the base supports it.” “In theory, everything should sort of come from the president…But it might come from the level below him where they’re like, ‘I think I know the president well enough to say what he would say on this,'” Lott told the undercover journalist. He also acknowledged that policy proposals are sometimes pushed forward simply because someone decided “this feels like a good idea — alright, just sign.”

Unelected staffers inside the White House are essentially making policy calls based on personal gut feelings and their own interpretation of what Trump might want, bypassing the President entirely. Whether that rises to the level of intentional subversion or garden-variety bureaucratic arrogance, it’s a serious problem either way.
President Trump has long maintained that a deeply embedded network of career government insiders actively works to obstruct his agenda. The left and their media allies have mocked that claim for years, dressing it up as paranoia. Well, here it is on video. The deep state didn’t just exist during Trump’s first term, it followed him right back into the building. The good news is that the cameras caught it this time.
