The analogy to lightning strikes is silly. The assassination of JFK by Oswald and the shooting of Oswald by Ruby were not independent events. Ruby would not have shot Oswald if Oswald had not been arrested for the shooting of JFK.
Notice that he does not name or give any information about the person who identifies the CIA as being involved in this conspiracy. It seems that anything that supports the pretense of a rogue "deep state", which is a big money-maker for Fox, gets their stamp of approval.
Good post except for the "deep state" pretense. Yes, that's the new schtick by the Trumpian right (they complain that it was behind the promotion of the Russian collusion story and the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story) but its origins comes from the left. There are lots of leftists who believe there was/is a "deep state" - they killed JFK for example (read Morley or David Talbot or Garrison/Stone/DiEugenio) - that corruptly influence American politics. I believe the origins of the term "deep state" comes from Peter Dale Scott? He is most definitely not on the right <g>.
The "horseshoe theory" of politics where the hard right and hard left meet or come together has problems but there is some substance to it. The anti-Establishment right and left do agree about the corruption of the "Establishment." They just disagree on how to defeat it, who it serves, and what to replace it with. One wants Trumpian populists the other wants Bernie Sanders socialism.
There is "something" like a "deep state" but it's not deep and it's not a state. It's the bureaucracy, the "administrative state" that carries out policies. It's the CIA, yes, but also the Interior Department that manages national parks. It's agencies and divisions and, most important, people with their own interests who promote their own policies and views. Nothing sinister, nothing Machiavellian; it's the way modern governments work.
